Writing your

Your vows should come from the heart. They can be two sentences of two pages. Don't stress it! You're eloping for a reason and the ceremony should 100% reflect your relationship. We've listed some prompts below to give you ideas, but will chat in more detail about the ceremony 2-4 weeks before your elopement!

    Please note that this is just a template! Ceremonies can include all sorts of things. You can include family members, traditions that are important to you, or words/poems/ scripture that is meaningful. We encourage you to craft a ceremony that is unique and meaningful to the two of you. Avoid cluttering up your ceremony with "stuff" just for the sake of filling time. Everything you include in your ceremony should be in service of highlighting the two of you and your relationship.
