Elopements
Your wedding day done your way

​Eloping means celebrating your marriage in a way that fulfills and inspires you. It’s about starting your lives with a big adventure and having a true, authentic wedding day that you’ll never regret! 
​
I can help you find a secluded, romantic, and beautiful location to exchange your vows in an intimate, adventurous way that is meaningful to you both. Whether you love to hike, explore, play cornhole in your backyard, or hang out at brewery, I know a spot that you'll love.

Elopements eliminate all the stress that comes with giant, traditional weddings and puts the focus back where it belongs—on you, your partner, and your lives together.

Considerations for your elopement:

1. Pick a location
Pick a location that feels right and if you have 10 people or less, most public spaces should work fine. If you need help picking a spot, let me know and I'll be happy to help.
​
2.  Monday-Thursday are ideal elopement days
Weekdays work best to ensure a private celebration. On the weekends, many popular spots in the area can get fairly busy, so picking a weekday is a solid plan for an intimate wedding. 

3.  Time your ceremony 2-3 Hours Before Sunset or Near Sunrise
Follow the sun. Usually around 2-3 hours before sunset is the best time to schedule the specific ceremony start time for your elopement. This provides the best lighting for photos and the weather will be cooler in the Summer evenings. Ask us about sunrise elopements!

4. Don't forget your marriage license!
If we will be near the courthouse, we can totally help you get this straightened out, but otherwise, you'll need to swing by before heading out to the celebration. Visit the County Clerk's office with your partner to get one.
