FAQ

I know how overwhelming it can feel to plan such a special day, especially with so many decisions to make. I’ll guide you through every step, from location selection and creating a timeline, to recommending trusted vendors and handling permits. My goal is to create a plan that allows you to relax and truly enjoy the experience, knowing everything is taken care of.

1. How can you help us plan a stress-free, unforgettable elopement or small wedding?

Each state has its own legal requirements for elopements, and Minnesota is no exception. I’ll help guide you through the process and provide the details of how to get your marriage license, and if necessary, assist you with any other legal aspects for out-of-state elopements.

2. What are the legal requirements for eloping in Minnesota?

Absolutely! I understand how important it is to have a well-organized, yet flexible timeline. We’ll work together to create a plan that prioritizes moments that matter most to you while leaving plenty of room for space to relax and enjoy the day. I can also help with the timing of things like your ceremony, photos, and any special moments you want to include, like a first dance or sunset toast.

3. Do you help with creating a wedding day timeline?

Certain locations, especially public parks or popular outdoor spots, may require a permit for elopements or small weddings. I’ll help you make sure everything is squared away, and ensure you have what you need to avoid any surprises on your big day.

4. Do we need to worry about permits for our elopement location?

Living in Minnesota, I’m no stranger to unpredictable weather, and I’m fully prepared to handle it with flexibility and ease. I always have backup plans for rain or other weather-related changes, but I’m also a big believer that weather can add magic to your photos. Whether it’s a misty fog over the lake or dramatic clouds rolling in, I’ll be there to make the most of it and ensure your photos still capture the beauty and emotion of the day. Because, who doesn’t love to dance in the rain??
