Their elopement vibe was on point! Vintage, fun, retro, dreamy, and gorgeous. They also have a picnic set up for breakfast. Alyssa wore a vintage bridal gown and really made it come to life. Also a full of pink and white faux flowers bouquet, a picnic basket with the kitchen essentials, and a delicious Dunkin Donuts’s strawberry and chocolate flavors donuts. The donut and coffee breakfast picnic is the perfect way to celebrate your sunrise elopement breakfast.

Palisade Head Elopement Sunrise Portraits

We added another scene to the romantic film of Alyssa & Tristan’s day by having them stand on the popular spot of Palisade Head. This time the pastel-colored sky and sunrise joined us and it’s unbelievable how beautiful and enchanting it is. Psst…When North Shore, Minnesota, gives you the pastel-colored sky sunrise in the middle of a rainy weekend during the wet season, we must embrace it all! Palisade Head normally gets so busy with tourists, but this time it was just us, so it was perfect. It was honestly one of the dreamiest days I’ve experienced on the North Shore.
