The September day that Joey & Jordan got married on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula was the definition of moody. Low hanging clouds, random gusts of wind and the promise of rain hung in the air all morning. But if you ask us, this is the perfect mood for a day on the peninsula, it just doesn't feel quite right in bright sun and blue skies. This is the weather that draws out all the drama form the mystical landscapes.
November in Iceland is the month where winter sets in. The air is chill, the ground is frozen and the days become shorter. On this particular November morning the low hanging winter sun illuminated the snow caped mountains, glittered on the frozen grass and added a splash of colour to the frozen, still landscapes on the Snæfellesnes Peninsula. The silence was only broken by the occasional croak of the ravens.

We want to share with you this little love story of a small group of people that battled the fierce wind to gather together in a small black church to laugh and cry together. To others this might just seem like a small wedding gathering at the edge of the world but…
We learned a long time ago that there is no use in getting annoyed by the weather you just have to embrace what ever the weather gods throw your way and work with it. And that brings us back to Belinda and Terry. They embraced all the weather they got on their wedding day and they got it all. From gale force winds and rain up in the mountains to pockets of calm down by the ocean.
We hiked a hill to check out a waterfall, jumped on some rocks at the beach, ate fish soup at the tiniest of restaurants and finally played in some puddles at sunset.
This wedding represents everything we love about our job. Traveling to distant, off the beaten track places, meeting genuine, awesome people and being accepted by a group of total strangers as one of their own and last but not least absolutely breathtaking skies.
