Why Choose us for your California Elopement?
All relationships between a bride/groom and a wedding service provider need to be based on trust (it's a pretty big day to place in the hands of a total stranger). But trust usually needs to be built over time. And--if you're eloping--you probably don't HAVE that kind of time. Plus, unless you live near Monterey, it's not like you're close enough to pop in for tea...
So, let's speed up the process a bit. Here's the short story on what you should know about us (click on the question for the answer--there may be a pop quiz down the road, so read carefully!):
1. Who are you?
2. What do you do--and why?
3. Do you accept commissions or kickbacks from the vendors that you represent?
4. You sound like you're fun to work with. Is it all fun and games?
5. Where can I get more info?

Elope to California Monterey Santa Cruz Big Sur
We're Lyssabeth's Monterey Elopements, and we've been putting together elopement ceremonies filled with laughter and happy tears since 2002.
Sometimes referred to as "intimate" or "destination" weddings, elopements are fun, romantic, and easy to arrange. (We make the process simple!) And there's simply nowhere else on earth (in our humble opinion) where it's more beautiful to tie the knot than Monterey Bay, California.
On central California's western shore, Mother Nature has given us a spectacular backdrop. No further wedding decor is needed! Sunlight dancing on the Pacific, powdery sand, dramatic rock formations, lush parks and crashing waves are our outdoor "chapels."
Man (and undoubtedly Woman) picked up where Mother Nature left off in the Monterey Bay area, providing us with charming inns, colorful gardens, a lighthouse and an abundance of things to see, do, eat and drink. It's no wonder that we host the intimate weddings of hundreds of couples each year in this beautiful part of the world. It's a little slice of heaven!

Let's talk about your elopement options
The simplest elopement requires you to have each other (we assume you have that covered already!), someone to legally marry you (the wedding officiant), a witness and a marriage license. And that's all that some couples require. We can provide that (and only that) if that's what you're seeking.
Perhaps you prefer an elopement package
We've partnered with other wedding vendors who are as passionate about elopement weddings as we are. Our elopement packages range from our starter package (help finding an elopement site, an officiant, some basic planning assistance, and a professional photographer) all the way up to fully inclusive packages where all you have to do is show up with your toothbrush in hand (okay, it might be nice if you had a couple of rings--but even those aren't mandatory!).
We're happy to help you put together your elopement wedding from start to finish, or just a piece here and there if you happen to be a do-it-yourselfer. Our goal is to give you the elopement services you want, without making you pay for those that you don't.
The bottom line is that whatever you want to make your elopement wedding a reality, we'll help you get it.
