Elopement at The Superstition Mountains

Wedding

This elopement at The Superstition Mountains was truly magical. Not only do I say this because I’m just so in love with the desert scenery but it’s also just such a gorgeous place. I always feel at such peace when I’m here.

I wanted to touch on why eloping is also so special. If you have been on the fence if you should ditch the big traditional wedding or just elope I’m going to give you a few reasons on why eloping just makes sense.

  1. SO MUCH LESS STRESS. You have more than less than half the things to worry about + you do not have to worry about opinions coming at you from every direction.
  2. More affordable. Traditional weddings are estimated to start anywhere from $18k – $25k depending on how many people are attending, catering, florals, venue, DJ, planner, and so many other vendors to make the day happen. Eloping is generally more than less than half the cost.
  3. It is just about you and your boo. If you are having a traditional wedding it is still about the two of you do not get me wrong but you do have generally 50+ guests to attend too. Eloping can just be you two, your officiant and of course me- your fantastic third wheel of a photographer. 😉
  4. You can literally elope anywhere your heart desires. There are so many beautiful places in the world and you can elope at just about any of them.

You do not need to have a lot of vendors to make this happen which is where a big chunk of the cost does come from. A lot of elopements I have done have just been myself, the couple, the officiant, a florist, and a hair and makeup artist. At the end of it though it’s just me and my couple running around taking some pretty damn epic photos.

All in all you two want something intimate and meaningful and eloping is so perfect for that. You two are wanting to be 100% present during this special time. Just remember that you only get to marry the love of your life once! Never feel bad for going this route.

Now I’m not saying I do not love capturing big traditional weddings because I do! I’m a big reception girly and love dancing with you and all your friends and family! I’m just also out here being a voice for my couples that know they want to elope. 🙂

Regardless if you choose to elope or have a big traditional wedding it is going to be perfect and special all I can say is to remember the day is about you and your love and no one else’s opinion on the day matters as long as you two are happy.
