The Top Three Reasons To Elope in Baltimore or Washington DC

Eloping has changed from what we originally would imagine it would look like.

While some may be running away and getting married, the idea of eloping has changed to creating a small and intimate ceremony that may just be the couple or with a very small group of close friends and family.

Inherently more casual than our planned micro weddings, elopements are equally as fun and enjoyable and for our non-traditional couples, we love creating a wonderful elopement ceremony and memories for them to remember.

So, why elope in Baltimore or Washington DC? Here are our top three reasons:

DC and Baltimore Elopement Ceremonies Are VERY Intimate

No need to figure out who can and cannot come. Sometimes, it will just be the couple and the officiant. You can always celebrate later on and elopement may be great for our DC and Baltimore couples who need a small ceremony planned for them where they are focused on each other. We love being a part of these moments!

Don’t forget, we will show up with the help of our local DC or Baltimore vendors for bubbly, cake, florals, the photographer, and the officiant, you simply need to bring the love and joy.

You can show up completely yourself to your elopement ceremony

We love how each couple brings their own flair to an elopement ceremony. Whether you come in a gown and a tux or a simple dress and a nice shirt and pants, we love that you get to express yourself and make this ceremony completely your own!

There are so many places for an elopement ceremony in DC and Baltimore

While some places in DC and Baltimore require permits, you have a larger choice of locations for an elopement ceremony due to the nature of the ceremony, the size of the guest list (if any guests at all). There are many public and private venues for elopements and tiny weddings in Baltimore and DC. We have our own list of preferred venues and locations if you need help deciding!

So, elopements have come a long way from their original definition and we love how our DC and Baltimore couples keep creating their own definitions of what their elopement ceremony means and how it will look for them!
