If you’ve been dreaming about a wedding that feels more like a getaway—this is your sign to make it happen. Picture this: the ocean breeze, a stunning sunset, and a small circle of your favorite people all gathered to celebrate your love.

Now is the perfect time to plan a beach wedding or elopement, especially if you’re craving something a little more relaxed and meaningful. Think cozy Airbnb, a long weekend with your crew, and no pressure to entertain 200 guests.

That’s exactly what Alyssa and Luis did for their coastal elopement. Instead of going the traditional route, they kept it simple, personal, and fun. The money they saved went straight to an unforgettable honeymoon—and they still spent an entire weekend surrounded by the people who matter most.

A wedding doesn’t have to be big to be beautiful. Sometimes the best memories come from the smallest guest list and the boldest choices.
