The question has been popped now what?
It's finally here! The big "Will you marry me?" question has been asked! Now it's time for the wedding planning, but wait your not very fond of the idea of a huge wedding. THAT IS ALRIGHT! This is a day that you are going to want to remember for the rest of your life. So here are THREE reasons on why an elopement may be the perfect fit for you and the love of your life.
You Want a More Intimate Setting
Traditional weddings can have a lot of hustle and bustle! While elopements are centered around you, your significant other and maybe a few of your closest friends and family. During this time you won't have to worry about saying hello to large amounts of guests like at most traditional weddings!
You Desire the Perfect Location
One of the best things about elopements is that because they are more small and intimate, you can choose a great location for your ceremony, without the worries of accommodating tons of guests! Want to go to a beach and say vows in front of the beautiful ocean? That's great! Want to do your vows in a winter wonderland in the woods? Go for it. Elopements open a lot of options when it comes to location.
Avoid the Wedding Planning Stress!
What should we serve our guests at the wedding? How many people are going to attend? Is a relative going to give an embarrassing speech? Will we have enough left in our budget for a great honeymoon? (This was the biggest question for me).
These are all questions that can be avoided when planning an elopement! If wanted it can all be simplified down to you and your special someone sharing the memory of your wedding with just each other. Imagine you and your significant other sharing your first dance as the sun sets behind you, or reading vows to each other in the peace and quiet of nature.
Closing Note
No matter how you decide to get married, whether it be a large wedding or a small and intimate elopement. Understand that this day is about you and your significant other celebrating YOUR love!
