Elopement Experience
So – you’ve decided to elope?
The day you get married should to be an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Choosing elopement isn't just about escaping the chaos; it's a chance to dive into the heart of your love story. Picture this: no guest list stress, no rigid timelines—just you and your significant other, surrounded by the awe-inspiring beauty of a location that mirrors the strength of your commitment.
Whether you want an intimate gathering with your closest loved ones or a private ceremony just for two, your elopement is an unparalleled, unforgettable experience. It's about connection and crafting an experience in a way that resonates with you forever.
Focusing on what Really Matters
Against some unpopular belief - I believe the big ordeal is the life we create together, not just the day we say ‘I do’, but there is nothing more exciting than stepping into your next adventure together in a way that means something. Let’s be honest, this day is about the two of you - strip all the b.s. away that society tells us to do on a wedding day to craft a day that when you look back in 10, 15, 30+ years, you can say, “Oh hell yeah we did that and we wouldn’t have had it any other way - it was just so us.”
Crafting an Unforgettable Experience
It all begins with this idea of eloping or keeping it small. No matter if you knew that from the start or you’ve found yourself say wondering what it’s all about. Chances are, you don’t plan these kind of things all the time and no matter where you’re at in the process - I’m here for it. I don’t just do this as a job, I fucking live for this and your experience is always my number one. Bring me your ideas, let’s get to know each other on a real level and together we will create something unforgettable.

Here’s how we do this!
-
First things first - fill out my Contact Form.
Once you hit send on my contact form, I’ll get back to you ASAP or within 24 hours so we can start chatting about all of the visions for your day, no matter what stage you’re at. Ask any and all the questions you may have, or let me know anything else you may need. I’m super flexible and while I really love to be able to hop on a call with all my couples before they book with me - we can always chat through email, text or whatever is easiest for you.
-
Once we’re able to chat about all the details, pick a date, have a generalized location and pick the package that best fit your visions - next step is to make things official and locking me down as your third wheel for your date! I require a signed contract and a 50% retainer put down - which are both done seamlessly online.
-
As soon as we’re all official, I’ll send over a “your booked” email and your a few couple’s questionnaires depending on where we are at in your planning process. These questionnaires will be filled with questions related to your elopement and you as a couple. these will give me all the tools that i need to recommend all the things to help plan this amazing experience.
