Frequently Asked Questions

What is an elopement?

Elopements are a romantic and intimate alternative to a traditional wedding ceremony. The definition of elopement has changed over time. It used to mean a secret ceremony, but, in modern times, elopements often involve a deliberate choice by the couple to have a small, private ceremony, away from the pressures and expectations of a larger wedding. This allows couples to prioritize their relationship and create a truly personal and meaningful experience.

What happens if it rains?

Elopements are often all about embracing the natural elements—rain included! While a little drizzle can add a touch of magic and romance to your photos (think moody vibes and adorable umbrella shots!), I understand not everyone loves getting soaked. If rain is in the forecast, we’ll work together to create a Plan B, whether that’s adjusting the location slightly or bringing along some weather-friendly accessories. That said, if you’ve chosen to elope, it’s likely you’re prepared to embrace whatever conditions Mother Nature may bring.

What days can we select for the elopement?

Elopement dates are available from Sunday to Thursday only. Pro tip: Weekday elopements often mean quieter locations and more privacy—win-win!

What is the guest count limit for Simply Wed Elopements packages?

The above elopement packages are designed to be intimate and are intended for the couple or the couple and two additional guests. A larger group of up to 15 guests maximum are possible at an additional cost. Keeping it small helps maintain the essence of an elopement and ensures smooth logistics.
