Bride and Groom and mother of the bride at Aspen Elopement Ceremony in Aspen, Colorado. Elopement ceremony ideas. — Q : Can I invite family & friends to my elopement?
A: An elopement does not just have to be two people. You can still have an intimate elopement experience with your closest family & friends there. Make sure you choose people who are there to celebrate the two of you & understand why you are choosing to elope.
**Fun ideas :**
Have your family/friends there for only certain parts of the day : The getting ready portion, just the ceremony, only the reception, a celebratory meal & more!
Heck, have TWO weddings! Elope just the two of you, throw a celebration/reception on a later date. Play a photo slideshow of your elopement or your wedding video for all your family & friends.
If you are eloping just the two of you - have your close family/friends write letters for you to read the day of.

“I have truly never met anyone who is more genuine and kind.”

Why others should trust you : I have truly never met anyone who is more genuine and kind. From our very first email exchanges, phone calls and in-person meeting, there was never a time were your energy lapsed or your excitement for our love wavered! Your ability to take away pressures/stress and embrace happiness and love is rare. You truly go out of your way and bend over backwards to ensure that all of your couples feel taken care of. You always made us feel at ease (even when being in front of a camera did not come naturally). But it is 100% your kindness and genuine compassion for others that makes you so unique (it doesn't hurt that you have an incredible eye, too!) Overall experience- Wouldn't trade it for anything! We loved every moment!
