What Exactly is an Elopement?
THE TERM “ELOPEMENT” CONFUSES A LOT OF PEOPLE, AS THE DEFINITION HAS CHANGED A LOT OVER THE PAST FEW DECADES.
WHILE TO OUR GRANDPARENTS, AN “ELOPEMENT” MEANT A CHEAP, ILL-PLANNED, CHEESY, LAST-MINUTE, SHAMEFUL, UNAPPROVED WAY TO GET MARRIED...
THAT’S NOT WHAT ELOPING MEANS ANYMORE.
In its simplest sense, an elopement boils down a wedding back to what truly matters: the two of you, committing your lives to each other. It strips away all of the “stuff,” the “fluff” the performance and production. An elopement is an intentionally small, intimate, meaningful, authentic wedding day that’s a true reflection of your relationship—where the focus of the day is really about YOU TWO.
It can look like just the two of you climbing a mountain and saying your vows at the top, inviting your immediate family to hear your vows by a waterfall in Iceland, or bringing your 20 closest friends to take a cable car up a mountain in Switzerland with you to celebrate you getting married.
THE BEST THING ABOUT ELOPING IS THAT THERE ARE NO RULES AND YOU CAN CREATE AN INTENTIONALLY INTIMATE WEDDING DAY THAT TRULY REFLECTS WHO YOU ARE.
