If anyone tells you not to sled in your wedding attire, show them these photos from Jacintha and Kevin's White Sands National Park elopement. Photographer Sam Starns is no stranger to adventurous elopements, but this gorgeous desert elopement is simply surreal. The way Jacintha's boho wedding dress billows is just STUNNING. We've gotta pick our jaws up off the floor, but in the meantime, here's what Sam has to say about this epic White Sands National Park elopement:

Jacintha and Kevin had a kick-ass White Sands National Park Elopement that was made perfect by the sweet details they included like matching necklaces given as gifts. Jacintha and Kevin’s day was full of so many loving things that truly speaks to who they are as people. They had a super unique water ceremony complete with a custom clay thrown vessel. The day even included some fun in the sand like sliding down the sandy dunes. It was a day filled with joy for this amazing couple in an equally cool location!
