Why elope with Elope by JLK Weddings?
Elopement at Brick & Mortar on Union Block
With the pandemic in 2020, something that we saw an increase of in wedding style is that of the elopements. We went from shooting weddings with 200+ guests to that of 20 or less. Even though it was a change in circumstance, its one we hope continues! They’re amazing! They’re intimate, and so special, with your closest friends and family. Of the ones we’ve worked on, the best have been those organized by Elope by JLK Weddings. We wanted our brides to get to know them better so we asked them a few questions.

1) How do you make elopements special and unique to each couple?
During a consultation, we get to know each couple. Then we create a mood board for them based on our conversations and any inspiration images they share with us. Each detail (bouquet, cake, etc) is customized to reflect their personal style and to all coordinate beautifully together.

2) We know you plan full weddings, but what made you want to get into customizing elopements?
My (Jessica's) sister eloped in 2018. As I helped her plan, I realized there was a need in our market for elopement planning. There is a whole group of people who don't want a huge, traditional wedding, but want something more special than just going to the courthouse on their lunch break. Our elopements focus on photography as a priority so our couples have their wedding day captured in a really unique way that's tailored to them!
