The only way forward is small intimate weddings.
Why should we elope ? Many of you ask yourself that daily.
Being in the wedding industry for over two decades, there are so many reasons why elopements and small intimate weddings work really well.
When it comes to love, the Covid 19 had better watch out.
Despite all hurdles and obstacles we have had to climb in 2020 love somehow always finds a way to come out on top.
During this difficult wedding season, we have seen many couples having to postpone their wedding, it’s been absolutely heart-breaking for us to witness.
Big Weddings
There’s a blunt truth about big weddings no one tells you, when you have a big, traditional wedding, you’re playing host to the biggest party of your life and it’s not about you at all, it can just be a lot of drama.
Truthfully, planning a big wedding can actually start out fun, then you get into the thick of it, and suddenly, your day-to-day thoughts become:
Who do we invite?
Which of our friends actually gets to be in the bridal party?
What about their plus 1s?
Suddenly, it’s the night before you are supposed to get married and you haven’t even written your vows!
You feel all you have been trying to do is accommodate everyone else, and at the end of the day, you’re wondering what all of this is even for…..
The fact is “Your Wedding Is Your Day”
I feel that this is your opportunity to create something uniquely beautiful with your partner, a day you will look back on forever, that’s why many couples choose to elope, because they desire a less stressful wedding day, less about everyone and more about them…
Whether you’re considering a small and intimate wedding with just a handful of friends and family, it’s good to discuss with your partner whether or not you would like to remotely invite any guests.
If it brings either of you anxiety to invite family or friends to the ceremony, then consider recording the event and sending out the video at a later date.
Elopements and small intimate weddings like this help show you just how gorgeous a wedding day can be, filled with epic mountain views and unforgettable spots for photos, having your wedding in a unique and stunning destination spot for such an important celebration is essential.

Reasons to Elope
I am very excited to share my experience being the planner and the driving force behind couples choosing to elope the real reasons that people are bravely choosing to have a private intimate wedding day that’s perfectly inline with who they are.
“The just us experience”
Some couples want to strip away the pressure, anxiety and obligation they feel about having a traditional wedding.
Instead they want a day authentic to them, with their values and vision!
They want a just us experience.
Elopements are beautiful options for people who don’t feel like the traditional wedding route is the right fit for them.
An elopement gives them the freedom to decide how to commit their lives to each other.
It creates a magical, intimate way for couples to make their wildest, most romantic dreams about their wedding day come true without asking them to sacrifice a single, intimate moment between the two of them.
No regrets, no stress, no pressure, no distractions, just two people committing their lives to each in a magical setting….
It’s important to remember, that everyone is different, for people who don’t connect with big weddings, a traditional celebration can make you feel like you’ve been put into a box.
When you choose to elope, your wedding can represent who you actually are as a couple, the love you have for each other and the life you’re going to build together. By eloping you are choosing a wedding that reflects your goals for the future.
Life is meant to be a magical adventure…
There is a common thought that couples who elope don’t care about their day, because they’re just spontaneously getting married and “skipping over” the wedding stuff.
That is so incredibly wrong.
Couples who elope care so much about their wedding experiences that they’re willing to take the risk of going against the status quo of having a big wedding and find the courage to create a unique wedding experience that will last a lifetime.
They see the world as a place full of opportunity, they believe that they exist here in the world to grow, to learn, to discover, to be creative.
I always feel with couples who choose to elope they are so brave, they see life as the greatest adventure, going through the journey with their eyes and hearts wide open with the bravery to be curious and the courage to accept the unpredictability of life.
Getting married is a big decision to make in your life. Eloping provides the opportunity for a “wonderful couple” to just make it happen…
Love recognises no barriers, it jumps hurdles, leaps fences to arrive at its destination full of love and hope forever…
A memorable wedding begins with a romantic location as special as your day will be.
When it comes to wedding ceremonies, many couples agree size matters, fewer people can mean a more personal celebration.
