As I pour my thoughts into this blog, I want to whisk you away into the world of eloping with Dear Leone. Picture this: escaping to the perfect spot, just the two of you or with a cosy crew of friends. It’s about embracing the small, making it special, heartfelt, and authentically you. Our elopement philosophy is all about having fun and keeping it stress-free, turning every moment into a cherished memory.

Elopements aren’t just whispers anymore. Some spill the beans to family and friends, while others savour the thrill of a surprise. Either way, it’s perfect. When you elope with us, the power is in your hands – pick your dream location and package.

Our elopement venues are growing, and here’s a sneak peek at our current lineup:

And guess what? We’ve got a stash of secret locations up our sleeve, too.

Couples usually book a 2 or 3-night stay, waking up on their elopement day to soak in each other’s company. Whether it’s the early afternoon or a sunrise ceremony, we kick things off with our Dear Leone team – yours truly, a hair stylist, makeup artist, photographer, celebrant, and chef. We’re not just vendors; we’re your guests, so trust in your elopement planner is key.

Imagine this: getting ready moments filled with laughter, drinks, and relaxed chatter. Then comes the highlight – a lighthearted and curated ceremony led by one of our amazing celebrants. We move on to the celebration with drinks, signing the marriage certificate, portrait photos with your photographer, and the pièce de résistance – private dining at your signature Dear Leone-styled table. The evening is yours to savour – a romantic dinner or a kitchen dance party – it’s entirely your call.

We’ve crafted unforgettable experiences – sunrise ceremonies, dance parties, 7-course degustations, furry companions, mountaintop pre-drinks, and shared cake-cutting adventures.

Our Dear Leone team isn’t just a bunch of vendors; we’re your family, your friends sharing in the intricacies of this significant moment in your life.

Our core values revolve around creating for you the most wonderful, seamless, memorable, and aesthetically pleasing experience that your heart desires. Elopements with Dear Leone aren’t just celebrations; they are crafted, intimate memories etched into the tapestry of your love story.

Mucho Amore, Gee X
