Wedding in Úlfljótsvatnskirkja & reception at Ion Adventure Hotel

January 18, 2021
April 7, 2025

M&M tied the knot in Úlfljótsvatnskirkja church and hosted a beautiful reception at Ion Adventure Hotel.

It was an honour and a pleasure to help M&M make their Iceland Wedding vision come to life. On their wedding day they created an experience for their guests they will never forget. A wedding in the beautiful Úlfljótsvatnskirkja church that sits on top of a small hill by Ulfljotsvatn lake, the Bubbly picnic to toast the newlyweds in nature, a pre drink cocktail hour at the Northern Lights bar at Ion Adventure Hotel followed by a delicious, intimate & super fun reception ending with dancing by the fire under the sparklers.

In our opinion, a dream wedding day in Iceland!

The talented photographers at Nordica Photography got the exciting task of photographing the handsome grooms. The winter light was a welcoming addition, especially in the church creating a magical atmosphere.

Pastor Egill performed the wedding ceremony, the grooms recited their vows and there were readings by guests. There wasn't a dry eye in Úlfljótsvatnskirkja when the two wonderful souls said I do.

And that lighting, we would say this is one of the perks of getting married in Iceland in Winter, the snow paired with the sun so low in the sky. Just gorgeous.

This building is Ion Adventure Hotel and this part in particular is the Northern Lights bar. Tall ceilings and floor to ceilings windows give a majestic feel to the space, M&M hosted a cocktail hour here for their guests.

Cheers to Sigga, an amazing wedding planner and Pink Iceland team member! "We couldn't be happier with the planning and execution of our adventure elopement with Pink Iceland! Due to the bad weather forecast on our initially planned date, we had to reschedule the elopement to be a day earlier. We we were made aware this was a possibility from the very beginning of the planning process. Our planner Sigga was able to reschedule everything and find wonderful replacements where needed, and with only a day or two to do so! We ended up getting married on the most beautiful, sunny winter day, it was truly magical! Sigga was also able to work within our budget needs, and provide a variety of options within it. We knew we wanted a glacier wedding, and she outlined the entire schedule and budget for more than one option for us. When there was a potential hiccup in our legal paperwork prior to the wedding day (due to our home state's record-keeping), she made a case to the Magistrate in Iceland for us and was able to aptly clear it up! She even planned and booked excursions and lodgings outside of our wedding day. Our entire trip from the elopement to the honeymoon was such a fun and beautiful adventure for us!" #weddingplanning #weddingplanner #weddingsiniceland #icelandweddingplanner #fivestars #fyp #adventurewedding

We’re out of office! As a reward for an incredibly well done job over our season, to focus on self care and building an even better team Pink Iceland is treating it's staff to a well deserved getaway with a big focus on putting our feet in the sand and disconnecting from our inbox. That doesn't mean we're not going to miss all our excited and amazing couples but we do ask for your patience as our planners re-charge only to return fresher than ever! #pinkiceland #weddinginspo #weddingplanner #iceland @sundayandwhiteweddings @birnaglimmer @valdivald
