Hey girl, I LOVED hearing about your special day! Your vision for your day sounds like it will be AWESOME. So small and intimate in such a beautiful place. Elopements have such a special place in my heart, and I want to say how happy I am that you guys are having a wedding that is a reflection of YOU GUYS. Not a production or an event, but a day centered on the actual marriage that is beginning. That’s so important and so often overlooked, so I am proud that you guys were able to say “no” to a huge event and instead plan the day that your hearts wanted. Lol, I’m a sap, but that makes me so happy when people choose to do that. So after listening to your needs, I created three packages that I think will meet your needs! Take yo time, check out the packages, and let me know if I can answer any questions for you!
