Coastal Vows Collective

Intimate Elopements at Sea

Welcome to Coastal Vows Collective! We're a Connecticut boat elopement partnership between Blue Heron Cruises and Tarren Bailey Photography, bringing together Guy's 36' Hinckley Picnic Boat and Tarren's coastal wedding photography for intimate ceremonies on the Connecticut shoreline. We created this because couples kept telling us they wanted authentic coastal elopements without traditional wedding stress.

Coastal Vows is for people who love the ocean and the Connecticut coast, who can't imagine getting married anywhere but on a boat with the waves beneath them. If you want an intimate boat wedding with your closest people (2-10 guests, sweet spot 2-6) sailing from Old Harbor Marina in Clinton, CT, with the Connecticut coastline as your backdrop, you're in the right place.

A newlywed couple sitting close together with their heads touching. The groom is wearing a navy tuxedo with a black bow tie, and the bride is in a white wedding dress with lace details. They are smiling and holding a bouquet of peach, pink, and green flowers. In the background, there is an old, rustic truck with a faded green and brown exterior.
