Here’s the thing…

I have noticed many couples are burnt out from planning large weddings. To be completely honest, I get it. Six years ago I was overwhelmed by all the things that needed to be done. I was worried about disappointing people and simply just wanted to be married. So I planned my elopement and I did it in one week!

I put together this list for planning an elopement in Greenville along with a list of vendor I who can help so you can focus on your love and worry less.

 

1. Location: YOU CAN GO ANYWHERE!

Greenville is filled with amazing locations for your elopement. From Pretty Place Chapel, Bald Rock, Sassafras Mt, Downtown, The Rock Quarry Garden and so many more options.

2. Attire: WEAR WHAT YOU WANT!

An elopement is an amazing opportunity to wear what you want! Mix things up with a suit, or go vintage, wear red, pink, a minidress? The options are limitless.

3. Hair and Makeup: PAMPER YOURSELF!

Hair and makeup is a great way to pamper yourself before your elopement and will bring the entire look together.

4. Flowers: THE ULTIMATE ACCESSORY!

Flowers are the finishing touch. Flowers allow you to add a pop of color, texture and scent to your elopement. 
A florist can help create a bouquet with special meaning. Choosing blooms that have special meaning, or design a show stopping bouquet!

5. Food: BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO EAT!

Do not skip out on planning food! The last thing you want is to get hangry before or after your ceremony. 
Reach out to a baker for small cake or cupcake. Plan for dinner at your favorite restaurant or one that you’ve been dying to try together!

6. Be Extra!: BECAUSE YOU CAN!

Your elopement is the time do what you want so why not be a lil extra! I’m not joking, lean in to the fun, romance of the day. 
Pop champagne, climb a mountain, hire a musician, rent a getaway car, bring your pets, make a time capsule and ENJOY YOUR DAY!
