how to pick your elopement date

Congratulations on your engagement! You’re now in the planning stages of the big day, but how do you decide what day to set your pop up wedding? It’s going to be a very special day, so it must be a date you’re happy with. An expert elopement planner has put together a list of tips to help you out below. 

Pick the Season

Would you prefer a spring, summer, fall, or winter wedding? Think about how you want your dress to look (long-sleeve, sleeveless, strapless, etc.), what your favorite season is, and what venue you’re considering when making your decision.

Consider Holidays

Do you want your wedding close to Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years? Think about possible traveling for family around the holidays and how you would feel having your special day close to other holidays. 

Consider Your Budget

Some seasons are more expensive than others. For instance, since summer is wedding season, you’ll probably find prices a little higher. If you’re on a tight budget, pick a date that won’t be in the peak of wedding season.

Think About Special Dates

Are there any dates special to you as a couple? For example, the day you started dating, the day you knew you were in love, or any other sentimental days. Consider eloping on or close to those dates.
