Elopement Luxury Lunch Experience

When you elope in Iceland, having small details or surprises throughout the day to enhance the experience can make it feel even more special. Maybe even consider upgrading to a luxury elopement? No shame in spoiling yourselves, you deserve it! But what could having a luxury elopement entail? To illustrate, this could mean having glamorous details, a styled ceremony, champagne picnic, a decorated sweetheart table at dinner, or an elopement luxury lunch!

Having an Elopement Luxury Lunch

Few things are better than walking up to a perfectly styled elopement luxury lunch at a stunning private location! After all, during your wedding day you want to feel like a VIP, be 100% connecting with your partner, and enjoy a location all by yourselves. Therefore, choosing to add on a lunch experience could be an ideal way to add to the celebration!

Types of Elopement Lunch Experiences

Once you decide you want to have an extraordinary lunch, you may wonder what types of options are available? Further, maybe you also desire to have it in a remote or private property location too. Therefore, you may need some ideas to get you started… For example, with our Iceland Wedding Planner team, we offer our couples some of the following choices:

Simple

Keeping things simple for your elopement luxury lunch could mean an uncomplicated setup. For instance, a blanket, a pillow or two, plates or not, and champagne. Basically just enough to add but not take away from the beauty of your Iceland picnic location. Food options could vary too and we speak more on that topic below so stay tuned! Furthermore, a simple luxury lunch cost could vary between $200-500 USD depending on your inclusions and setup.

Seated

Having a seated elopement luxury lunch could mean you do an actual stop in a restaurant. Alternatively, if your hiking elopement keeps you away from the main road, you may have a table and bench out in the wilderness of Iceland! Typically if the latter, the seated option would be decorated for you to delight in. Next, you may be wondering how much you may need to invest to have such an elegant experience in the Icelandic wilderness. Likely the cost would be between $1,000-3,000+ USD depending on where, what inclusions, and other accoutrements you wish for.

Icelandic

Interested in partaking in local traditions and Icelandic delicacies? Well then, you two may want to opt in for an Icelandic elopement luxury lunch! Firstly, you could taste native pastries. Secondly, you could have sandwiches made from smoked salmon, rúgbrauð, liver sausage, harðfiskur (dried fish kinda like jerky). Thirdly, wet your palette with trying local beers and / or Landi (Icelandic moonshine)! Fourth, conquer your sweet tooth with taking a bite into all kinds of Icelandic candy (licorice included)! Maybe you have more of a savory craving then nibble on local cheeses and crackers. Lastly, you could anticipate a cost between $995 – 1,500 USD depending on the setup and how many goodies you’re wishing to try.

Lavish

Going for a lavish elopement luxury lunch could mean you not only have blankets, pillows, styling, but maybe also a lighting or fire feature! After all, the cozier the better, right? Also with this option many may decide to upgrade their food experience too with fancier inclusions. For instance, grilled items, canapes, charcuterie board, vintage champagne, and designer chocolates, etc! Your next question may be what type of investment is an experience like this? Likely something between $995-1,500 USD depending on where, how elaborate, and what food options you opt in for.

Ultimate

Want to splurge? Then opting in for the ultimate elopement luxury lunch might be right up your alley! Indulge in all the things, we dare you!
