ELOPE MEANS FREEDOM
Why freedom? Because this is what happens most of the time, when everybody know you are getting married:
“Did you think already about the table arrangements?” “What wedding favours will you give?”
“You know, I have a cousin who is a very good dj! I will call him!”
“We have to invite also aunt Jenny you know? What? You don’t remember who aunt Jenny is??!”
Yep…everyone inevitably, some more, some less, they will give their idea of “what to do” end there is nothing bad about it.
But! These are THEIR IDEAS, and they often come from the same source:
The concept of a wedding done and thought with a STANDARD BASE FOR EVERYONE!
Here start the phase, where YOU, future bride and groom, have the right, and have to say what do YOU want and what not!
That’s why I speak about freedom.
When you decide to elope, you are already announcing that you want something out of the scheme
that doesn’t follow standard rules, but is instead tailored on what YOU like and what YOU would like to do!
Therefore, if you don’t want many people, but prefer instead something intimate, go for that!
If the idea of a restaurant dinner after the ceremony, doesn’t attract you, don’t do it!
Do you want instead a barbecue outdoor with few people? Do that!
Do you imagine yourself happier, just the two of you and your closest family, eating pizza in a B&B? Do that!
Do you feel like a room inside the council/venue is not really what you were imagining
and you would prefer a ceremony in front of a lake? Do that!
