Tired of calling vendors who never call back?

We actually respond — even if your date’s already taken.
Because chances are… we can still hook you up with an incredible backup plan.
One call. One team. Everything handled.

We’ll find the perfect spot, secure permits, build your timeline and keep the whole day running smooth — no matter where you’re flying in from.

So go ahead — book the flight, pack your rings, and let this day feel easy, exciting, and FUN.

Frequently Asked Questions

There are many factors that affect elopement costs, such as what’s included and how experienced your vendors are. Elope to Nola pricing ranges from $2900 to $8k+ for a full day destination experience. What we will say is that it’s typically much, much less than a traditional wedding.

Yes and no. You can get legally married in your home state or country and come to New Orleans for a ceremonial experience without needing a marriage license here. If you want to be legally married in Louisiana, you’ll need to apply for and obtain a marriage license at any Clerk of Court office in the state. We’ll guide you through every step of the process.

Typically, elopement ceremonies last about 15 minutes. This time can be longer depending on factors like religious elements, family members reading scripture, and similar additions.

Everything you need! See our elopement packages

Elopement attire is entirely up to you! Choose something that makes you feel comfortable and confident, whether it’s a formal wedding dress and suit, or something more relaxed and adventurous. We personally love seeing colors and uniqueness. The beauty of an elopement is you can personalize everything including your attire!
Absolutely! We provide the best of the best New Orleans officiants too!
Yes, you can. You’ll just need to apply for a marriage license and provide the required documentation. There is some planning involved unless you’re already traveling with your birth certificates and divorce decrees, if applicable.
Yes, for most public spaces. We’ll help you figure out which locations require permits and which don’t. Some spots even include permits in our packages.
The sooner the better – our typical booking window is within 12 months of your desired elopement date. That said, we’ve planned and pulled off elopements in as little as 48 hours.
If it rains on your elopement day, we get creative. I usually know a few days in advance if we’ll need to shift to a rain plan. We’ll reach out to see if your Airbnb or hotel has an indoor space we can use for the ceremony. We’ve also used covered structures in the park. Flexibility on the day is important, as we may need to adjust the ceremony time to avoid the rain and still have it outdoors.
First off, thank you for your inquiry. I appreciate you reaching out and am excited for the opportunity to meet you both. Once you complete your inquiry, I’ll text or email within 24 hours to set up a call, answer any questions, and go over your vision and the details of our services.
