So, you’re engaged! You’re elated with thoughts of the beautiful memories to come, and you just can’t wait to spend the rest of your life with your partner! You’re excited to get started on your wedding journey, but you know you want a small, intimate ceremony… Well, we have the ultimate tips to keep focused on yourself, your partner, one of our gorgeous elopement wedding dresses, and your love story for an elopement-style wedding.

There is always the question of whether weddings must follow a certain set of rules—and the answer is no! You have complete freedom to decide exactly how you want to celebrate your love story, and for some couples, elopements are the way to go!

You may be wondering… what is an elopement? The definition has changed over the years. Traditionally, elopements occurred in secret as a way for couples to exercise their love for one another without needing the approval of their families. However, today, elopements can mean a simple ceremony without a reception or party to follow!

Want to know the most amazing thing about elopements? You can still wear the dress of your dreams! And guess what? We’re here to help guide you to the wonderful elopement wedding dress for your special day.

Before we dive into the incredible elopement wedding dresses we KNOW you’ll love, take our Style Quiz to find out what key elements you’re looking for in your wedding dress, then pin these gowns for later!

Now, let’s get started.
