Why Do People Elope?

May 16th, 2011 by | No Comments | Filed in General

There are many reasons to elope, and if you find yourself wondering, “Should I elope?” you better make sure that you have the right reasons to do so. After all, you’ll be celebrating a big part of your life without friends and family who would have loved to be there. Though of course, you can just throw a party for everyone else after your elopement. Here are some reasons to elope:

In Love with Love

Some people elope because they are just so in love, that they can’t wait another second (literally) for their life to start! Just make sure that this decision is based on true, unconditional love–not just an impulsive act. You wouldn’t want to make a decision you’ll regret.

Let’s Cut Costs

It will be much cheaper to elope than hold a wedding. Some couples elope because of economic concerns. It is reasonable to reserve majority of your money for expenses after the wedding, after all. Any and all expenses incurred in the elopement will be for you and your partner, not for two hundred plus people you hardly even know.

Anti-Planning

You could be midway through planning your wedding when you realize that everything’s so wrong. So wrong, in fact, that you’ll be having the exact opposite of what you and your partner wanted for a wedding. The solution? A hassle-free elopement. All you have to take care about are your and your partner’s needs. You can finally focus on what you want, and not what other people want and say.

The Shy Type

Not everyone can (or wants to) step up to the spotlight. For people who can’t bear to be king and queen for a day, an elopement is the perfect alternative to a wedding. This is also perfect for couples who want to keep their wedding simple and intimate.

Getting married in a lavish wedding ceremony is a dream come true for many, especially for women. So, why elope? Eloping has become an attractive option for many couples. Not limited anymore to parental objection, couples elope for various reasons. In fact, these reasons are even considered an advantage over traditional wedding arrangements.

  • Financial issue
    • This is one of the most common reasons to elope. Probably seeing how others have buried themselves in debt for spending on a lavish wedding, many couples would prefer to elope than spend all their money on a wedding ceremony and reception.
  • Romance and excitement
    • The thrill of eloping is an attractive prospect for many couples. There seems to be a sense of romance and adventure in taking off with your fiancee to a far away place and leaving everything behind. Sounds like a scene from romantic movies and novels, isn’t it?
  • Time constraint
    • Another reason why couples elope is there’s not enough time for a full celebration. This could happen when the fiance is about to go on a military deployment or leaving the country in a couple of days.
  • Less stress
    • Eloping is virtually stress-free compared to a traditional wedding. There’s little or no planning involve at all. All you have to plan about is the destination.
  • Privacy
    • There are couples who prefer to spend their most special moment together, without entertaining guests. They feel that the best way to celebrate their marriage is through an intimate getaway.
