Passion for Alaska's inspiring panoramas and natural beauty led us to create Outland Events. Our combined background within the wedding industry and as lifelong Alaskan's gives us the knowledge to help couples access the Last Frontier and create an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind experience that's distinctive to them.

Alaska's mountains, glaciers, rugged beaches, tidal inlets, and vast tundras make incredible settings for celebrations. We collaborate with couples to select locations that complement their personal love story and aesthetic. Every proposal, elopement, wedding, and vow renewal is special to us and we love working to turn your dreams into reality!

Love brought us together when we serendipitously became sister-in-laws and realized we shared a dream. We wanted to create beautiful days for adventurous, intentional couples all over Alaska.

Erin grew up snow machining, camping, swimming in wilderness lakes, hiking, and hunting in interior Alaska. Cori grew up boating, fishing, swimming in the ocean, flying with her pilot father, and helping run her family's floating lodge in Southeast Alaska. Although we've both lived out of state, we've always come back to the place that's truly home.

We both reside in Anchorage, also spending time in Girdwood and Willow, often as one big combined family. Our couples have taken us everywhere- from Nome, Denali, Kodiak, Ketchikan and all-between. We love creating incredible experiences for our couples from all over the world, in all areas of the state!
