Dolomites Helicopter Elopement
Discover this stunning Elopement in the Italian Alps
What. a. day! We all couldn’t stop smiling as we were soaring through the sky while the sun was slowly setting behind the mountains, creating the most memorable end to this Dolomites Helicopter Elopement. More on this in a minute though.
Earlier in the day we began our adventure in Meran with a heartfelt civil ceremony (yes, you can often also legally marry at your Elopement!), before heading to Alba, where a scenic cable car ride took us up the mountain to Monte Colac.
After taking our time for a short hike and some epic photos up there along Passo San Nicolò, it was finally time to head to Elikos Helicopterservice near Ortisei.

Taking a helicopter up to Seceda for the dreamiest finale
When planning a Dolomites Elopement, one might come across a slight issue: Many cable cars, that allow you to get to some stunning mountaintops without the need for a half- or full-day hike, close quite early. Often too early to still be up a mountain for sunset.
So why not take a private helicopter up there and get the entire place to yourself? Because imagine ending the greatest Elopement day ever with the two of you watching how the sun slowly paints the most breathtaking mountain peaks in a soft, golden light.
On this occasion we chose Seceda for this and after stopping there for what felt like an eternity where time stood still and taking some epic photos with this one-of-a-kind place as our backdrop, we took back to the skies to enjoy some of the most spectacular views we had ever seen.
So if a traditional wedding doesn’t feel right to you, that’s okay. With a Dolomites Helicopter Elopement, you can have a day that’s truly yours – and it’ll be one you’ll never, ever forget.
The best locations for a Helicopter Elopement in the Dolomites
While helicopter pilots can’t just land anywhere they want to, there are still quite a lot of amazing locations in the Dolomites that are possible for this. A few of my favorites:
Seceda

Cadini di Misurina
Marmolada
How much does a Helicopter Elopement in the Dolomites cost?
Setting your budget
The cost of a Helicopter Elopement in the Dolomites is highly dependent on your personal choices, since a large part of the budget will be your own travel costs.
The price for the helicopter itself though is determined by the length of the flight and the number of stops and ranges between 1.500 € – 3.500 € (1.600–3.800 $).
In addition to this will be your own travel costs, wedding attire, wedding rings and lastly your vendors like an officiant or your Elopement Photographer.
