Eloping?

In the past few days of wedding planning, I've become inspired to "run away and elope"!! Technically, it wouldn't be running away. I'd still want to have the company of a few loved ones. I'm not sure it would even be classified as eloping! More like, a small destination wedding with only a few people invited.

Brendan and I aren't into big events. I want our wedding to be very meaningful and intimate. I don't feel like I'd get that if we had a big ceremony. I know that I might get some backlash from some of our relatives, but I feel like if they loved us and wanted what we wanted, they'd be accepting of it.

I would truly love to get married in a valley by the mountains or in a beautiful forest. I enjoy the outdoors and beautiful, scenic locations. Just another reason why I would love a small destination wedding.

I do believe that we would hold a reception when we got back. So those who did not get to join us on our big day still have an opportunity to celebrate us.

I want to highlight a couple sites that I found that have really helped inspire me.

The first is Intimate Weddings. I am in love with this site! I looked through a few of the real weddings and I felt totally inspired!

The second is Simply Elope. I got lots of great information from this site. I loved the "Advice" tab. It really helped encourage me to pursue a small destination wedding/elopement.
