Eloping

My fiance and I went to Newport,RI in late August. It was so nice and romantic I thought it would be a cool place to elope. Maybe a place like Cape Cod too = whimsical & romantic.

Definately Vegas!

If you haven't been there in the last 5 years - its not your parents Vegas! The Bellagio has the most beautiful garden and of course those magical fountains. There are tons of beautiful, romantic spots for a wedding. We first started discussing marriage on our last trip to Vegas and we toyed with the idea of sort of eloping but when we mentioned it to our family/friends everyone said they were coming with us! So we were married on LI. Enjoy

Do Hawaii - try gloriasbedandbreakfast.com - great B&B and her husband is a minister so he can do the ceremony for you 'under the mango tree just on the edge of the ocean' - can you do better than that!

Eloping - I would have to say

it depends on your situation... City Hall - if you dont have much moola or dont want to go away Las Vegas - if you want this type of 'atmosphere' and you have the moola - moderately priced Hawaii - if you want this type of 'landscape' and have the moola - varies depending on your activities/how many islands/length of stay BEST OF LUCK TO YOU!!!

Eloping

We had planned on eloping for the longest time...I wanted to go to Italy. Then my FH ended up very ill, and when he got better he decided he wanted the full wedding. I still wanted to elope. There are times in the planning I wish we HAD! We were in Vegas for a week last summer and didn't!! Everyone thought we would. My vote is Vegas or Italy :-)

Sandals Jamaica

If you go to the Sandals website, I think they include information about having your wedding there on site -- then afterwords - you can enjoy your honeymoon!
