Intimate ceremony coverage
Coverage can be shaped around vows, courthouse appointments, beach ceremonies, private gardens, restaurants, or a small guest count with the people closest to you.
Elopements
South Florida Elopements
Courthouse vows, beach ceremonies, garden portraits, and intimate celebrations with calm photo and film coverage.
What Is Included
Simple on the surface, carefully planned underneath
An elopement can be a courthouse ceremony, a beach vow exchange, a private garden, a hotel terrace, or a small dinner with family. The goal is the same: a calm plan, meaningful coverage, and images and film that feel like the day actually felt.
Photo and film together
About half the cost of a full wedding day. Photography starts at $1,000, film starts at $1,000, and photo and film together starts at $1,750, with online gallery delivery included.
Calm planning support
We help you think through light, timing, family photos, permits, officiant rules, weather, travel, and the best portrait route for the city you choose.
Room for the celebration
Some elopements are just the ceremony. Others include dinner, a few guests, or a full wedding weekend. We can shape coverage around either version.

Elopement FAQ
Questions couples ask
How much does it cost to elope in South Florida?
Elopement coverage is about half of full wedding coverage. Photography starts at $1,000, film starts at $1,000, and photo and film together starts at $1,750, with online gallery delivery included.
Where can we elope in South Florida?
Couples elope at courthouses, beaches, gardens, hotel terraces, private homes, restaurants, and Key West locations. Choose the setting based on privacy, light, permit rules, and how many guests will attend.
Do we need a permit to elope on the beach in South Florida?
Many beaches and parks require a permit for ceremonies, especially if you bring guests, chairs, decor, or an arch. Confirm current rules with the city, county, planner, or officiant before choosing the location.
How many hours of photo and film coverage do elopements need?
Many elopements work well with two to four hours of coverage. Add more time if you include getting ready, family photos, dinner, travel between locations, or film.
What is the difference between an elopement and a small wedding?
An elopement centers the ceremony and portraits, sometimes with a few guests. A small wedding usually adds dinner, more guests, and a fuller timeline.
Can we book both photography and film for an elopement?
Yes. Elopement photo and film coverage can be booked together starting at $1,750, which helps one team manage ceremony angles, vows, portraits, and the pace of a smaller day.
How far in advance should we book an elopement photographer?
Book as soon as you have a date, location, or courthouse appointment in mind. Weekdays are often easier to schedule than weekends, but popular seasons and sunset times still fill early.
Can we include guests or dinner coverage in an elopement?
Yes. Many elopements include parents, a few friends, a private dinner, or portraits at a second location. We shape coverage around the ceremony, guest count, travel, and any meal or toast moments you want documented.
