When you choose to have a smaller wedding, you are only choosing to have fewer guests, not less of a wedding experience. Our elopements are geared toward the needs of a wedding with fewer guests but with all the features of any size of a wedding. We include everything needed but your future spouse, your clothing, the wedding license, and your rings! Anything else you bring or include is optional.
Traditional Elopement
Want to know what your experience might be like? Follow the wedding of Crystal and Christopher Moss! Photography, Cake, Music, Minister, and on-site styling all provided by the 1812 Hitching Post.
Crystal and Christopher’s elopement was on May 1st with about 20 guests who were mostly family. When Crystal arrived, she had some party favors for us to set up that helped set the theme of their experience!
Crystal then went upstairs to the dressing rooms to get ready with her maid of honor while Chris greeted guests and had his boutonniere pinned on by his mom.
Get photos of you getting ready and lovely photos on the balcony.
The rustic wooden arbor at the 1812 Hitching Post decorated with white and burlap drapes, eucalyptus, and white hydrangeas. We add a microphone for the minister and amplification for your ceremony music. Everything is pre-planned with you so you have what you want for your wedding!
Crystal’s brother walked her down the aisle to the song “Marry Me” by Train.
After the ceremony, we took a group shot of everyone at the wedding on the front porch. The couple then had photos with different members of the family individually and in small groups.
We then went inside for the cake cutting and toasts.
We then went outside and I took photos of Crystal and Chris while their guests enjoyed their food and drinks. Here are some of my favorites (warning – they like to kiss!).
