Thinking about eloping? 

Deciding to elope is a huge choice, and it’s not for everyone – so check out this list of 10 signs you should elope! If you’re wondering whether eloping might be the best option, you’re in the right place.

1. You can’t stop smiling when you think about eloping!

If the idea of eloping fills you with excitement, that’s a good indication you’re on the right track!

2. You want to be smart about how you spend your wedding budget.

Eloping can be much more cost-effective than a traditional wedding. Whether you want to save money or splurge on other priorities like a honeymoon or a dream destination, eloping gives you more financial flexibility.

3. You’d rather avoid potential family or friend drama.

If the thought of guest list politics stresses you out, a true elopement with just the two of you might be the way to go. Or, keep the guest list to true VIPS only!

4. You’re not into the idea of spending months planning a wedding.

And you’d rather spend that time enjoying your engagement! Eloping cuts down on planning time, allowing you to focus on what really matters.

5. You want a relaxed, stress-free wedding day.

Eloping can turn your wedding day into a calm, memorable experience. Without the hustle and bustle of a large event, you can be fully present in every moment.

6. You want to keep decision-making to a minimum.

Fewer details mean fewer decisions, making the process much easier on you.

7. You love the idea of a meaningful, purposeful celebration.

Eloping allows you to focus on the heart of the matter – starting your marriage journey with your partner, free from distractions.

8. You value your privacy and intimacy.

If a small, private ceremony with just your closest loved ones (or just the two of you) sounds perfect, eloping could be the answer.

9. You need more flexibility with your wedding date.

Elopements offer flexibility in timing. Without a large guest list to accommodate, you can elope whenever it suits you best!

10. You’re dreaming of a unique or adventurous wedding location.

Eloping gives you the freedom to choose any location that speaks to you – such as on the beach at sunset or surrounded by gorgeous tropical foliage.
