Inviting guests to your elopement?
You’re probably not the only one a little nervous about what to expect and what it all means.

a prepared guest
is a good guest
Unlike with traditional weddings, a lot of people still don’t understand what to expect when attending an elopement.
And feeling unprepared is possibly one of the worst feelings in the world. Not only is it an uncomfortable feeling for guests, but it adds unnecessary stress to the one day that deserves to be perfect.
