One suggestion we have is if you love a popular wedding venue but want to just elope is getting married Monday- Thursday. Be sure to e-mail them as they might let you rent by the hour for you and a few guests if it’s not too far out and not on a popular wedding date that’s already booked, this way you can have your dream wedding while on a budget. After your elope you can have a mini reception at a local restaurant or at a house. (yours, a friends or rent an Airbnb) Also If you’re wanting to elope at a popular public place such as the beach we recommend early morning or sunset to avoid large crowds of people.
