Eloping vs. Having a Wedding: Which is Right for You?
When it comes to getting married, there are so many choices to make: the dress, the venue, the food, how to personalize it and, of course, the style of ceremony. One of the most significant decisions you’ll face is whether to elope or host a traditional wedding. Both options come with their own set of pros and cons, and choosing the right one for you and your partner can be a deeply personal choice.
So, let’s dive into the pros and cons of eloping versus having a big wedding day that hosts a lot of people, and help you figure out which option is best for you.
The Love Story of Adrianne and Jarrett
Adrianne and Jarrett originally met during their Freshman year of high school at an FFA convention. However they lived 3 hours apart so they never hung out, but would occasionally talk on and off.
Adrianne was going to school and playing college soccer only 30 min away from Jarrett. Which later got them talking again! As you can see these chats turned into much more, because they got married at Sage Canyon Ranch - Fountain Green, UT in February of 2025. Here is their love story!
