Why you should have an all-day elopement…
I think I’ll make this into a series. There is a lot of reasons and not enough space to type. But let’s start with the most obvious…
1. Less stressful——————
Example: If something bad should happen, there is plenty of time to fix the issue.
Like when my bride Aly found out just over a week before her wedding that the area she had her heart set on visiting was still closed due to snow. She was heart-broken. But, because we had enough time in the day for Plan B. That meant driving 4 hours round trip to get the beautiful views she wanted in Glacier NP. All well still having plenty of time for photos of her getting ready, their ceremony, and reception with their family and friends. But that wouldn’t have been possible if she only had 6 hours.
But if you are also a highly anxious person or couple, not having the pressure cooker of a clock constantly on your mind will also make for a much happier day.
Maybe you want to do something really amazing and adventurous on your big day. Like going kayaking, or on a hike, hot air balloon riding, or my fave, a helicopter ride! All are so much more possible when you give yourselves time to breath & relax. Trust me. After 14 years and over 600 couples. I can tell you that the less stressed you are, the much better your memories AND photos will be.
