What the heck does your Elopement day look like?
So you’re thinking about taking the plunge and just eloping on Maui, how exciting! Maui is the perfect place to elope because it’s a couple’s paradise. There are some exquisite locations for the ceremony and incredible restaurants and private dining experiences.
First of all, what does it mean to “elope”?
Everyone will define an elopement in a slightly different way these days. It used to mean you run away together, don’t tell anyone, and secretly just get married! These days more and more couples are choosing to elope and it can be described as a small & intimate wedding with either just the two of you or with a small gathering of family and friends that focuses on YOU both. It can be on the beach, at a private venue, or at other amazing locations, it can be anywhere! It’s about celebrating the two of YOU, spending quality time with each other, and relishing the moment & day in YOUR favorite way.
Below you will find a full elopement day timeline sample for a Maui elopement
