Choose Eloping Instead of a Big Wedding!
Let’s explore why couples are now more inclined to choose eloping instead of a big wedding.
Choose Eloping Instead of Getting Into Debt!
One of the big truths associated with a big, traditional wedding ceremony is that it costs a lot of money! In 2021, the average cost of a wedding in the United States was around $22,500. Keep in mind that this average cost does not include a honeymoon! This is a big part of why coupled are becoming more inclined to choose eloping instead of the more traditional route. An all-inclusive elopement package averages around $2,500 often including a few nights stay to serve as a short honeymoon! That’s a saving of almost 90% on the cost of a traditional wedding!
Eloping is Less Stressful
Another reason why couples are turning to elopement is that it can be much less stressful than planning a big, traditional wedding. Many couples got to experience elopements for the first time during the COVID-19 pandemic. Seeing how stress-free this option can be, many are continuing to choose a smaller wedding, even though restrictions on larger weddings are over. With fewer guests, there is less potential for family politics and drama!
