Lauren and Matt's Elopement in the North Carolina Mountains

Elopements are our new favorite. Paige, Michelle and I had so much fun pulling this one together on the fly – with a little help from our friends….

Lauren and Matt decided to have an intimate family elopement followed by a celebratory picnic with a view. I love this photo of them relaxing with their nearest and dearest.

To all of the couples getting married this year, or those who have decided to postpone. I wish you peace and serenity surrounding whatever you choose to do. However uncertain the future may seem this too shall pass.

Thanks for the kind words Lauren. It truly means the world….

“After we postponed our wedding due to COVD, my fiance and I decided to elope on our original date. Two weeks before we tied the knot, we called Meris and asked for her help planning and creating a beautiful picnic “reception” for ourselves and our four guests. Despite the time constraints and challenges posed by executing a socially distant celebration during a pandemic, Meris sprang to action and helped us scope a ceremony and picnic spot, design a menu, find a designer to work with, and create an experience and celebration we’ll never forget. She was responsive, kind, creative, accommodating, and dependable – we are so glad that had her help and would absolutely recommend her for your wedding or elopement!”
