Learn more about how we will create your perfect day…
Traditional weddings works for some, but not everyone. If you’re looking into elopements, it’s because you know you don’t want that…but you’re not sure what the next step is. Rest assured because you’re in the right place. Your wedding day should be about how you feel on your special day- the reason behind the love in your eyes.
At Ibay Photography, we have a different view of what “weddings” should look like- anything you want! We create intimate ceremonies that highlight couples’ connection. At your elopement, the focus should be on you. Have you always dreamt of saying your vows under the Tree of Life? Let’s do it! Are you and your spouse-to-be obsessed with vibrant colors and architecture? I know the perfect spot!
Together, we will craft your vision of your ideal elopement- and then you can sit back and watch as we bring your vision to life! As resident New Orleans elopement experts, we will help plan every detail! We’ve also created all-inclusive elopement packages within New Orleans to help you. Or… contact a photographer for hourly photography only coverage 
But how does it work? Here’s the step-by-step process.
- Before we sign on the dotted line, it’s important we get to know each other. That’s why we start by having a call with you. We want to know your story and what you envision for your day. Get to know us too! We might even share some insider tips about visiting our amazing city! When you are ready, we’ll sign an agreement complete with an initial payment to lock in your date. Balance due 30 days prior to wedding day.
- Based on your personalities and visions for your big day, we will take a look at our elopement packages within New Orleans and suggest personalized elopement locations and venues, as well as share some elopement prep tips like those found in my free Elopement Day Checklist!
- Once we pick the spot (see our blog HERE on best ceremony locations), we will get to work planning the nitty gritty details from creating a custom timeline to hiring florists, bakers and/or musicians (based on the package you select). We are also happy to assist with restaurant, makeup artists and accommodation recommendations. You’ll have full access to the Ibay team throughout the planning process leading up to your big day!
- On your elopement day, we are all yours! The officiant will meet us at the ceremony location and any ordered floral arrangements will be brought with us to the ceremony or delivered directly to your hotel. We will help you navigate the steps in your big day to ensure a seamless, stress-free elopement.
- Based on your selected package…after your elopement wedding, you’ll get a sneak peak of your photos so you know what to look forward to! First look photos will be shared on social media shortly after your elopement wedding with a full gallery of photos delivered within 4-5 weeks of your wedding.
We are passionate about creating budget-friendly, stress-free elopements for our couples
Our goal is to create a one-of-a-kind, intimate day that you’ll never forget. Detailed planning assistance is included with every elopement package within New Orleans offered.
An amazing photographer is key to capturing your beautiful wedding day. But to create a truly special day perfect for you and your spouse, you need an elopement expert
Elopement weddings are unique, custom and intimate. They’re not meant to be like big, stressful traditional weddings. So no two should ever be the same! Work with a photographer who is also an New Orleans elopement expert. We know New Orleans inside and out, which means every detail of your day will be a reflection of the vision you have for your wedding day.
