Not everyone is up for a big wedding. For some, the stress, planning and costs involved can make getting married seem like more of a second job than a happy occasion. Birkat Elyon<\/a> provides couples with smart alternatives to expensive diamonds with their full line of high-quality CZ engagement and wedding rings<\/a>. Here are our tips for an alternative to a big wedding: an elopement!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s more to eloping than just running off to a\ncourthouse. You can still have the kind of intimate ceremony you want if you\nkeep the following in mind.  Start with\nthe location. Many couples opt for a spot that holds special meaning for them \u2013\nthat can include a backyard. However, if there is travel involved, factor that\nin beforehand. Eloping isn\u2019t as pricey as a big wedding, but there are always\nsome costs involved. Sit down and determine how much you\u2019re willing to spend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check the law, especially if you\u2019ll be married out-of-state. Do you need a license, and if so, how long will that take? Are witnesses required? What about the officiant? Are certain credentials needed? Make sure that your marriage is legally valid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re heading to a foreign destination, check with a\nwedding planner who specializes in elopements. They\u2019ll help you navigate local\nlaws as well as find any vendors you might need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, what kind of ceremony will you have? Plan what you\u2019ll\nwear, if a bouquet is involved, and what kind of vows you\u2019ll exchange. While eloping\nis meant to be a simpler affair, you still want it to be special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, there will be plenty of people happy for your new marriage but slightly disappointed they weren\u2019t there. Throwing a post-elopement party is a great way to mark the occasion. Rent out a room in a restaurant and invite your closest friends and family. Alternatively, you can throw a party on your first anniversary. It\u2019s less stressful than a big reception but festive enough to celebrate a wonderful milestone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
