The Atlanta wedding photographers at Atlanta Artistic Weddings have seen many kinds of weddings, especially after a year like this one. I’ve noticed that elopements especially have become more popular in the past couple of years and our photographers have shot a number of elopements. While this type of ceremony may not be what every couple imagines when thinking about their wedding, there are some really neat, unique aspects that can be incorporated into these simple, yet elegant, ceremonies to make them incredibly meaningful. After all, you’re still marrying the love of your life and you still have a reason to celebrate!

An elopement is usually a small ceremony conducted with just the couple, meaning almost no guests. However, that doesn’t mean that you have to give up all the special details that make a wedding day feel momentous. For instance, purchasing a designated wedding day outfit can not only help underscore the significance of the day, but it can make you feel special, as everyone should on their wedding day. A first look moment, first dance, and wedding vows are also beautiful touches you can include in your elopement to create a wonderful moment between you and your spouse.

Having a smaller guest list may not always be what you, or your loved ones, anticipated, but there are plenty of ways you can still surround yourself with your loved ones on your big day. Zoom and other video call platforms have become almost essential, making it so that everyone is just a click away, even when they may be across the country. By live streaming your wedding, your loved ones can still feel like a part of your big day, while also letting you and your spouse have an intimate ceremony where the focus is on the two of you.

The most important thing to remember with an elopement is that it is still a momentous occasion that should be celebrated! You can create keepsakes so that you can remember and mark the occasion, such as asking your family and friends to write letters and well wishes for you to read on the day and keep in a special box, or have someone take photos or video of special moments during the ceremony. You can also show these photos to loved ones who weren’t at the wedding. You can even still pick a beautiful location that’s special to you. It’s your day, so make it your own!

Elopements can still incorporate some heartfelt and meaningful traditions, while celebrating love as well! It may not be exactly what you imagined, but it is still a meaningful occasion you’ll want to remember for the rest of your life.
