No matter whether you choose to elope as a couple or invite a\u00a0few\u00a0people along for the ride, an elopement is much more personal and intimate than a wedding. You can spend every moment of the day together, and not have to worry about moving around a room talking to each and every one of your guests<\/a>. It is also incredibly romantic.<\/p>\n

Saving money<\/h2>\n
You will not have to pay for dozens or even hundreds of guests<\/a> to attend, be fed and watered<\/a>, and entertained. Instead, you can focus on you and your fianc\u00e9. Even if you choose to spend a little more to have a destination<\/a> elopement, chances are this is your wedding and honeymoon<\/a> rolled into one, and you will be able to take advantage of packages that will include everything you need for your elopement.<\/p>\n
Minimal drama<\/h2>\nWhile weddings are supposed to be what you and your fianc\u00e9 want, they often become a juggling act to make sure everyone is as happy as possible on the day. When you decide to elope, literally all that matters is what the two of you want. You\u00a0are the directors, producers, and stars of the day.<\/p>\n

What guest list?<\/h2>\n
The biggest sources of stress when planning<\/a> wedding is who to invite<\/a> to share the day with you and then where to seat people<\/a> at the reception. With an elopement, you can go with the flow and even pick a restaurant<\/a> at the last minute if you wish. After all, you only need a table for two…<\/p>\n
