Iceland marriage laws are pretty cut and dry. You have to be 18 years old & you can currently be married. Simple shit right? It is good to note too that same sex marriage has been legal since June 27, 2010! Hell yeah, Iceland. They even hold an annual Pride celebration in August every year.
There are a two different ways that you can get married in Iceland.
US Based Photographer | $5000 - $10000 (full day - multi-day coverage)
Videographer | $5000 - $9000 (coverage varies)
Florals | $150 -$300
Lodging | $150 - $450 per night
Airfare | $500 - $1400
Car Rental | $600 - $1600
Officiant/Celebrant | $400 - $600
Food | $80 -$150 a day
Activities | $400 - $1000
The first being a symbolic Iceland elopement and the second option would be legally getting married in Iceland
I'd typically recommend the symbolic route. For information on how to legally get married in Iceland, head over to the "How To Get Married In Iceland" blog for all the details and resources you need to have a legal wedding in Iceland!
Now, the "total" of eloping in Iceland might seem like, "Hmmm, the upper end of that cost is like a wedding in the US.". While you aren't wrong, the difference between the traditional US wedding and eloping in Iceland is that you're investing in you and your partners experience together rather than investing in an experience for others. The Iceland elopement total is also the cost of a multi-day adventure, not just a single day.
Another plus here is this number can be totally dependent on your budget. The total above is based on having alllll those cost above added together. Maybe you don't want certain things on that list. The joy is it can shift and adjust to meet your needs.
