we eloped!🫶🏼

we decided to have a court house elopement with only a handful of important people in our lives!!

Why?! Because we were looking at $10k-$15k for ONE day (12 hours actually) and that sounded insane to us! To each their own , but this was money we could put towards our future instead of entertaining others all day!! We didn’t have to worry about others opinions, thoughts or wants either! We got to spend the whole day just soaking up us and our love! If you’ve ever thought about it , just do it!!!

... Read moreEloping has become increasingly popular for couples looking to simplify their wedding experience. Many couples are now opting for courthouse ceremonies to avoid the stress and high costs associated with traditional weddings. With an average wedding in the U.S. costing around $30,000, it’s no surprise that many are searching for alternatives. By choosing to elope, couples can redirect those funds toward memories, travel, and future investments. Additionally, elopements can often be more intimate, allowing couples to focus on their love and create a meaningful connection without the pressure of guests' expectations. While wedding traditions are valuable to many, eloping offers a unique opportunity to craft a personalized celebration that reflects a couple's true desires. This movement toward eloping emphasizes the importance of authenticity and financial prudence, making it an appealing choice for modern couples.

Why? - I genuinely didn’t feel the need or desire to spend thousands on a wedding. I also think this was a moment between us that I didn’t need people to witness. We also read our own vows and we definitely wouldn’t have done that with other people around. Where? - Woodstock, New Hampshire

I’m in my wife era 💍! We had a super intimate ceremony, just the two of us and our dog. Spent the day doing exactly what we wanted, no fuss, just pure joy and meaningful moments for us. It was everything we dreamed of! #finallymarried #wife💍 #elopement #elopementinspiration #elopementphot

Okay let me tell you before you jump to conclusions.... We didn’t elope because we didn’t care. We eloped because we cared deeply about doing what felt true to us !!! When we got engaged, I tried to picture the big wedding: the guest list, the timeline, the endless decisions. But none of it fel

There’s something so peaceful about stripping away the pressure of planning, the financial stress, and the expectations, and focusing on what really matters: the two of us. We wanted our wedding day to be about our love, not the logistics — and eloping at the courthouse gave us exactly that. No

We knew we were going to get married from day 1. We booked a venue out of faith in January of 2024 even though we were not engaged because we just knew. But as the date got closer & we had a ton of personal & professional changes, we did not want to wait anymore. We hiked around some

1- It saved us a lot of money! Everyone we know who had a 50+ person wedding spent over 15k. We just bought a house and had to buy a furniture and appliances, so we already touched a big chunk of our savings. Truthfully we only spent on my dress, his suit, our photographer, and our marriage licen

my husband and I spent almost 2 years engaged (which imo is totally normal and fine) but during that 2 years I went back and forth a LOT trying to decide if I wanted a big traditional wedding or to just get eloped. every venue I had wanted was booked up post covid and all signs really kept pointing
