COUPLES ARE ELOPING TO CREATE ONE-OF-A-KIND WEDDINGS
well, after officiating at 1500 elopements in 20 years, I can agree with this article. (grin)
But there are a few RULES:
1) Tell your mom, if you tell your mom things anyway
2) Tell your best friend and siblings, if you tell them things anyway.
3) You don't need rings or flowers, unless you WANT them.
4) Dress up, or down, bring along a friend with a guitar, or don't bother.
5) Don't confuse an elopement with a flashmob wedding. Find a quiet tree, or your own apartment or a hotel, or a beach, or a backyard. Find a little peace and privacy for 20 minutes. THEN go out and take pix all over town if you wish.
there are zillions of articles on this blog with advice, or just contact me. MaryBeaty (at) Gmail.com
