Putting all of the little pieces together to create the perfect bridal look will be something you’ll never forget. Make sure that you plan extra time in your elopement day schedule to take it all in and appreciate how beautiful you look!

2. The Moment Before

Right before you walk down the aisle, you’re going to experience so many emotions! You will be excited and have so many butterflies. Whether you choose to walk alone or have someone escort you, this is a special moment for you that you will remember. Take a second to pause and take it all in — you’ll be grateful that you did!

3. Your First Look

The first time you see each other on your big day, you are going to experience an overwhelming amount of joy and happiness. Some couples choose to have this moment at the time the bride walks down the aisle so that their guests can participate in the love. Other couples choose to have a tender moment beforehand with just the two of them so that they can fully capture the moment. They can take it all in and get emotional if they want! The best part about eloping is that you can combine the two.

4. Your Vows

This is the moment where you get to tell your partner how much you love them and how much they mean to you. It may be hard to pay attention at while you’re saying them, but being able to look back on your vows will mean so much to you as you go forward in good times and the bad.
