Carmen and Peter decided to elope-just the two of them-way up north in Mattawa, Ontario. They picked The Buffalo farm, a secluded 500 acre property with fields, forests, and winding rivers. It offered complete privacy and stunning natural beauty for their day. They never envisioned spending their money on a big wedding-they would rather spend it travelling. In fact, marriage wasn’t even a priority-until the quiet of the pandemic lockdown shifted something in them. One day, without telling a soul, they decided they wanted to get married. It was a true elopement in the purest sense. Running away together, turning off their phones, and disappearing into the moment together.
