Eloped 22 years ago (cold November Saturday in the basement of the Cook county building in Chicago ... just us)... been home owners for 22 years ... paid for 100% wedding and 100% house out of our own pockets ... rarely argue ... excited about our retirement in a few years. Eloping worked for us. ... oh, no one was pregnant ... we got asked that allot!
I’m choosing an elopement due to family reasons. I grew up in a disconnected family, I never really saw my family or talked to them and they never did the same with me. I wanted my close friends and family and that was it. I didn’t want judgment I didn’t want people to feel entitled to my life or their own opinions about my marriage. And that was it. I wanted it to be happy and about the love of me and my partner and I don’t think that’s something I’ll ever regret
+diamond zetty I’m sorry about your issues with your family, but you’re so right! At the end of the day, do what makes YOU and your partner HAPPY! Doesn’t matter what others think!
I don’t like people! So this is perfect lol I truly don’t want anyone else’s negative vibes. People usually just judge and I feel like I have to invite them not because I want too. So this is great! Thanks for sharing
I dont have a boyfriend but when I do get married I to would like to get elope on a beach, jump the broomstick, go get something to eat, then hop on a plane to Deutschland or a trip across Finland/Sweden/Norway
Omg you and I are so alike. While planning I was getting so depressed worrying about everyone’s opinions and needs. My anxiety was so all over the place. Being a Libra I am also very indecisive. We just cancelled out wedding for this year and are planning a wedding 6 months for now and only have our children and parents and our dogs. That way the focus will be on us and less stress
We're eloping next weekend. There were so many people I didn't want to invite and it was just getting stressful and messy so when the pandemic hit it was like a blessing. Oops! We can't invite anyone and we gotta stay a long way away from the officiant and witnesses anyway so...lol...
Im the midst of planning I was getting too stressed out and had a panic attack. I literally couldn’t breath and started crying. My fiancé came home and we just were searching for videos of elopement and came across this one. Your video gave us the confidence and reassurance to do what WE wanted to do. So we cancelled our venue and yes we los $2k but honestly that’s less than everything would’ve cost us. We are now eloping in a beautiful garden in poconos July 1st. We will only have our parents and siblings 6 people. This feels right to us. Thank you so much for sharing your advice because you really are helping people! Now I can’t wait to get married in three weeks
Getting married this Wednesday 5-20-20. It will only be us in light of what’s happening and I’m happy to do so. Saved money and it’s kinda cool to say we were married during corona lol .
Elopements seems so romantic and beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing your reasons and experience to elope! So helpful and so real! My fiance and I are not sure if we should have a traditional wedding or elope so your perspective was so refreshing and insightful.
+marramags Thanks for watching! At the end of the day, there are pros & cons to everything,but make the best decision for you and your fiancé! It will be great either way!❤️
I've just never been into the idea of a big wedding and I hate being the center of attention. I'm sooo excited for my outdoor elopement ceremony though 😊
I love this. Now that I’m getting older I’ve been thinking about weddings and what they’re all about. And I thought when I get married I want it intimate and about me and my future spouse. I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks this way! Loved the story ♥️
franzabananza it’s crazy how your perception starts to change as you get older! There are so many options that can be true to you and your spouse! Thank you so much for the support❤️ it means a lot!
Thinking about getting eloped with my fiancé on my birthday Nov 3 2020. I’m not feeling the whole wedding thing anymore. We don’t like a lot of tension I just want to be with him that’s it.
Thank you so much for this. I have family members that are hurt they won’t be part of our elopement and honestly- it’s just not for us. Too much stress! This is so validating.
My fiancé and I live a very secluded/private life I’ve been feeling guilty and bad about not having anyone show up, especially with the date being so close but after watching your video it’s really reassuring, love your story and great video ♥️
Honestly I love the honesty. Planning a wedding is super stressful and there’s just so much that goes into planning a wedding. I think elopement is something that so simple yet memorizing, you get to capture that intimate moment more and hold it closer to your heart
We are eloping at a state park, then having a small gathering in the backyard with catered food. Easy peasy, and no unnecessary rules or hidden fees from a venue. We really wanted our special moment to be just between the two of us!
Ever since I was a little girl, I have always wanted to elope. I used to love reading novels where the couples eloped. I think I want to do that with my man. It feels right to me
We are considering eloping in the Fall in Colorado. I agree, weddings are expensive and I rather invest that money elsewhere. We will have a true elopement just us two because we don't want the stress of people saying they going and don't etc. love you story
I love my immediate family, but I don’t live in the same country as them right now, and it doesn’t seem fair to throw a big wedding where we live. We’re eloping next month and I am so exited! Thank you for sharing your story 💕
Congrats on your union! It was a very amazing and smart choice for YOUR wedding. I don't see myself having a huge wedding at all. If anything it can be in a backyard with more of my man's side of the family there. Lol I have no problem with "hurting anyone's feelings or disappointing them"....they will get over it. Wedding planners and having everything perfect is unrealistic!
I don't quite understand this. I thought elopement meant that you went off and got married, period, but they are talking about elopement "packages", cakes, inviting people, etc. It sounds more like a mini-wedding.
I am eloping. I’m 7months pregnant and my fiancé and I are private. It is making it about the marriage and not the wedding day. Our big reveal will be at the babyshower
I put you guys to 200 subscribers. Yayy! Lol me and fiancé plan on eloping as well . The big wedding is not really my thing. So we felt this would be a great option. Watching this video really made things feel more comfortable for me. Sounds perfect . You two are a beautiful couple 🙏🏽❤️
@@sincerelychelsea5430 No problem lol. Isn't everyone? I'm always trying to figure out what to do with my hair. Usually I just brush it and leave it.... haha
My fiancé and I plan on having the chaplain on post marry us later this year and then Dec 2021 we plan on having a “ceremony” and reception with our immediate family and a few friends. We just have too many family members that are high risk for COVID to do anything this year.
That’s what my husband and I did we only spent $175 for everything and yes it was a very intimate time cause it was only us two and we did get married in South Carolina Myrtle Beach 😆 congratulations y’all I really hope to see y’all married forever ♾
The beach is a great spot for an elopement and I bet it was a day you will remember forever! I'm glad that there are other couples out there that are happy they eloped!!!! And thank you for your sweet wishes!
Nataly Escobar Depending on where you live you can get a Notary the one I used was 125 and the marriage license was 50 also when you fill out your marriage license ask them do they do courthouse weddings and if they say no usually they use a notary and it goes from 50-175 just depending on who you use
This is actually Bridget Lordy commenting. Devin Lordy is my late husband. We had the most beautiful wedding in 2016. I lost him 2 years ago. I've meet my current fiance Christian and we're thinking of elopement. I appreciate your advice
Carrie Rivas thank you! We used Destination Elopements Asheville, we got married at Black Balsam Knob & the restaurant we went to afterwards is Avenue M in Asheville!
My wife and I wanted to go to New Orleans and elope but thanks to COVID and a nosy aunt it turned into a micro backyard wedding. I hated it! She promised me the New Orleans trip for our vow renewal
I know this video is months old now but my fiancé and I are getting married at Black Balsam in a month and I’m a little nervous about the hike. Be real girl, how was hiking up in your dress!? Lol I need all the tips so we are prepared!
Ashley Cannon hey girl! It was a little tough, I’m not going to lie! We would stop and our photographer would find beautiful spots to take pictures along the way up! Unfortunately it was super foggy when we hiked, so we never reached the very top like originally planned, but we still got awesome pics nonetheless! It was also pretty cold when we went too, so that didn’t help anything either 😅 congrats to you and your fiancé btw ! ♥️
Hey Chelsea! I’m a Chelsea too! :) hey question, my fiancé and I are looking into elopements in... Asheville! In 2022! Which vendors did you go through and which would you recommend?? Thanks!
I’m SO late replying , I’m sorry! But we used Destination Elopements for everything! And the photography we used The Remnant Collective! You’ll love Asheville, it’s beautiful!
I totally understand the appeal of eloping. I'm normally a minimalist,.so one would think I'd elope, but I still want a big wedding. ❤ I just want all the traditional Bells and whistles and i wanna spend all the money. I want the big shebang ok! Im not having kids, so I need something for me.
My man and I are both hungarian living together in Ireland and recently we started thinking that maybe we shouldn't go home to Hungary to get married, even if both our families and all of our close friends are there, its just too stressful and we don't need nobody trying to organise things like they wanted (my mom tends to do that, her opinion is that you have to invite everyone who's family because then noone will get hurt, etc.. Even if those family members stress me out😅) so we're considering getting married here, maybe flying our parents, sibling and 1-1 of our best friends out... We can celebrate in Hungary after. Covid justifies this really well, I'm not great with confrontation anyway 😂
Leah Davis Asheville is really a beautiful place to get married! And we used “Destination Elopements” in Asheville! They have a great variety of packages for everyone!
Hi! I’m 18 I know I’m young and I got my life ahead of me but my boyfriend (age 19) and I are really in love with each other and we talked about marriage but I’m in a position where my family thinks marriage is a bad thing at this age. I never really had much of a voice to stand up for myself so I’m wondering if elopement is right at this age? A little advice would be great🙂
+JO JO Hey! I was a lot like you at 18! My husband and I were together since we were 16 and we were sooo in love, but we still had other goals before we wanted to get married like going to school and creating a good life for ourselves! Y’all can still be together & in love without getting married right away. I also have a problem with finding my voice because I can be a bit of an introvert at times! If y’all are dead set on getting married, make a pros & cons list and if the pros outweigh the cons, y’all are technically adults and can get married. At the end of the day, be rational about marriage because it’s hard work and every day is not fun lol. Ultimately, do what makes you both happy! ❤️
There are some couples that have been married since they were 18 years old and have been together for 40 plus years now. If you all feel it's right, then go with it but know that marriage takes work, maturity, respect and communication. There's people older than you that don't know wth they're doing when it comes to marriage so imo young people should get married if they want to. Blessings to you both, finding love is such a special thing.
Irene McNair hey! So our elopement package was right around $1000 I believe and that included officiant services, coordination, a customized cake, a bottle of champagne, flowers that matched the colors I wanted,etc. The website we used specialized in elopements so they had a lot of different packages! It is www.destinationelopementswnc.com
Thank you for your video. I’ve been engaged for a while but I’m stressed out about having a wedding as my partner’s dad is full of ego and white privileged, may as well look down to females according to his daughter. He’d talk to me like I can’t speak English at all and say strange things to me such as “ happy English new year” ( I’m Asian) etc etc. Due to global pandemic my parents have never met my partner’s parents in person , so they have no clue how ridiculous he is. Im so stressed when thinking not only I may have to put up with the stupid thing he probably will say in my own wedding but also have to translate that to my parents. I was upset as giving up a wedding and go elopement is the only solution if I want to avoid that 😢
Tia R We decided to dine at Avenue M & they were more than accommodating! We loved their rustic decor, the food was great and the staff were so nice! They allowed us to stay a little after they closed & even gave us complimentary champagne for a toast!
Wow you got me so excited, i didn’t realize an elopement would be my style, but my parents also got married in a courthouse, so mama doesn’t make a big deal out of it at all!!! I love you! Lol
My wife and I recently eloped and honestly, I could'nt have asked a better and more comfortable ceremony. I am pretty liberal when it comes to wedding and never liked the BS of Trad/Mainstream weddings that the media swoon about. Especially when you have family that like to micro-manage. A wedding is the beggining of a marriage. Not just a day to celebrate your marriage.
I decided im going to elope because the more i thought abiut people i wanted to invite and the cost lol i was like nah. Ive always thought of a microwedding or elopement with a beautiful dinner with my immediate family. Im sure people will be butt hurt but idc lmao they not paying for nothing

This. I’m about to get married and have a baby and people will find out when they find out lmao no regrets I’m so peaceful
my fiance and I are considering eloping next year at a beach and then having a reception in the future.
Shes Anxious that would be really beautiful & intimate! Eloping & having a reception later is a great option!!
Yes that sounds absolutely amazing!
B A L I S O N me too! Literally the same thing. Did you do it?
I dont have a boyfriend but when I do get married I to would like to get elope on a beach, jump the broomstick, go get something to eat, then hop on a plane to Deutschland or a trip across Finland/Sweden/Norway
That is what I want to do. Wish me luck! Hope to god I can do it.

Thank you guys for this video👍👍After six month of stress and anxiety over big wedding, we finally decided to elope at the private vineyard in Napa.

I am eloping in Asheville this year! Which restaurant did you all chose for your reception dinner?
Tia R We decided to dine at Avenue M & they were more than accommodating! We loved their rustic decor, the food was great and the staff were so nice! They allowed us to stay a little after they closed & even gave us complimentary champagne for a toast!
Who/what was the elopement package through? The photographer?
Getting eloped tomorrow so it’s perfect and there’s a pandemic going on
Wow you got me so excited, i didn’t realize an elopement would be my style, but my parents also got married in a courthouse, so mama doesn’t make a big deal out of it at all!!! I love you! Lol
How did you find the package ?
My wife and I recently eloped and honestly, I could'nt have asked a better and more comfortable ceremony.
I am pretty liberal when it comes to wedding and never liked the BS of Trad/Mainstream weddings that the media swoon about. Especially when you have family that like to micro-manage.
A wedding is the beggining of a marriage. Not just a day to celebrate your marriage.
congrats
