Why do couples elope instead of opt for the conventional wedding?

For a wedding experience completely focused on the couple, rather than entertaining guests.

To avoid the stress and pressure of putting on a big traditional wedding performance.

For the flexibility to do exactly what they want, travel to new places, and enjoy their preferences.

Raves and Reviews

Karen is the best. My husband and I aren’t used to taking photos and often get uncomfortable, but Karen made us feel so comfortable with her professionalism and amazing vibe. I would recommend her 100 times over to anyone I meet. We are head over heels in love with the photos she took for our special day.
