What No-One Tells You About Eloping (And How to Make It Still Feel Special)

Kat

Jenn and Pawel

March 23, 2026

For a long time, eloping meant running away to get married in secret. But today it usually means the couple have chosen to elope because they want a wedding that feels calm, intentional and focused on the two of them rather than the expectations of everyone else. Some elopements even include a small guest list (although these should more accurately be called micro weddings). But while elopements are often portrayed as effortless and carefree, there are a few things people rarely talk about when planning one. So, if you’re thinking about eloping, here are some practical things to know and simple ways to turn it into a meaningful experience rather than just a quick legal formality.

Stag and Bird

March 17, 2026

April and Brandy married twice, both in ways that made sense for them. In July, under a willow tree in the garden of their friend and photographer Courtney of Stag and Bird, the couple made it official. By autumn, they decided they wanted a second day that marked the marriage in a different way. So, in October they drove four hours south from where they live in Kansas City to Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Waiting for them were Courtney and her assistant Kendal, along with a loose plan to say some vows at sunrise at Lover’s Leap, a scenic overlook just outside the town.

A Quiet Elopement in the Italian Dolomites

Eastlyn & Joshua

A wedding doesn’t have to be chaotic and filled with other people's opinions. In fact, if a much quieter, more relaxed feel is more your style, let Mackenzie and John's elopement in the Italian Dolomites be your new biggest inspiration. The result? Some of the most gorgeous, quietly beautiful wedding photographs we’ve ever seen! Because isn’t this what getting married is actually all about? Once the big party is over, all that’s left is the two of you and your relationship. Somehow that can get lost in the craziness of planning a big party and this wedding is a great reminder of what really matters.

Angelique and Seth got married on Halloween. It is their favourite holiday but they didn't want their wedding to feel like a costume party. Seth wore a suit jacket lined with skulls and jack o lantern socks. Angelique chose skull earrings and skull shoes. They both have ghost and jack o lantern tattoos, which felt like enough of a nod to the date without forcing a theme.

Cloe and Gareth kept things intentionally low key for their Scottish Highlands wedding. They married with just sixteen guests, all staying together in a large lodge, sharing meals, views and the pace of a few slow days away. The setting did most of the work, and so their brief was simple - natural tones, hints of lilac and light sage, and nothing that competed with the landscape.
