When I say this is a hefty guide, I mean this is a hefty guide.

My goal with this guide was to be a resource for you to refer to no matter where you are in your wedding planning journey. It will literally walk you through on how to dream up, plan, and make your wedding a reality—regardless if you're planning on eloping with just the two of you, or having a 100+ guest wedding.

That’s where me & this guide come in—to help make the process of dreaming and planning your unique wedding day as simple and stress-free as possible.

I’m here for you every step of the way. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the process of creating a wedding experience that you’ll love every minute of.

If at any time you have any questions, please reach out. I'm here as a resource to help you. I'm basically available to you 24/7 as long as I'm not photographing another love story.

Cheers! We're about to be a whole lot closer to your dream wedding!

This is it.

The Guide

The first step in any great creative process is to dream & brainstorm. This is where you and your partner explore all of the possibilities of what your day could look like—without being hindered by details or logistics yet.

Once you have an overall vision for what you two want out of your day, it’s time to make the biggest  decisions that will affect your elopement experience the most:  who are you inviting, where are you going, and how long you’re going for.

The next step is plan out all of your details for your day including booking your travel and a place to stay, choosing your vendors, deciding on activities, picking out your wedding day attire, and gathering any other items or gear you may need.

Once you have all of the details decided on, it’s time to put your vision all together and create a timeline for your elopement or intimate wedding day (or multiple days) that fits everything you want to experience.

Now the planning is done and you just need to gather everything you need, pack for your trip, make sure you communicate with your guests (if you have any), and get ready to have an amazing day!

You did it! Your day is here. Relax and soak in every moment and be fully present with your partner. Enjoy the incredible experience you created together as you say your vows and commit your lives to each other.
