Will I Regret Eloping?
Benefits of Eloping
People who make the decision to elope do so for a number of reasons. They choose eloping to avoid the cost, stress, and frustrations associated with planning a large wedding. Planning a wedding should be a happy occasion but many times things get out of control and stressful for all parties involved.
Eloping is a means to celebrate your union with your fiancé. You can begin your life together on your terms. With an elopement, you can choose to have a destination wedding somewhere you have always dreamed of visiting. You can also make the decision on exactly how many people you want to have in attendance.
When you elope, there is no pressure placed on you and your fiancé by friends and family members. With only you and your fiancé aware of the planning process, there is no influence placed on you to invite people you do not want at your wedding. There is also no need to have a larger wedding party than you want a well. We have all heard stories of the bride’s mother demanding cousins being in the wedding party when they are not even close to the bride.
Eloping is one of the best decisions a couple can make if they want to avoid wedding planning stresses. If you are choosing this path for the right reasons, you will not regret eloping. With an elopement, you get married when you want, where you want, and you only spend as much as you desire. There is no guilt related to whom you invite and even what food you serve. In our opinion, when it comes to choosing between a fancy, overly complicated, stress-inducing wedding ceremony there is no better alternative than to plan a small private elopement ceremony or tiny wedding. Most couples who choose to elope say it is the best decision they ever made.
