Romantic & Elegant Elopements

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

Close your eyes and think, “courthouse wedding.” What images does that phrase conjure up? Cold and impersonal? Disappointing? You’ve gotta really dig deep to get something romantic out of that…and Carrie Bradshaw showed us this year in Sex & the City. But for most people, if you’ve got the blue Manolos, you’re probably not dreaming of donning them at City Hall. That would be like Cinderella losing her glass slipper on the steps of…I don’t know…a cold administrative building instead of the palace!

What brides don’t always know is that they can have a courthouse style wedding, but make it romantic and elegant with one word: elope! Ahh…isn’t that exciting? We’re always encouraging brides to come out to the gorgeous gardens at Heather’s Glen and have a simple and intimate wedding rather than filing some papers. With our elopement packages, you can’t afford to not have a special memory, with beautiful pictures of the best day of your life. The truth is that a three-ring circus wedding and reception isn’t for everyone, but the alternative shouldn’t be at court. Imagine a portrait of just the two of you, in front of the charming gazebo, any of our waterfalls or fountains, or in front of the mansion, and telling people, “It was just the two of us, and the minister, and it was so special and romantic!”

Heather’s Glen Elopement package with the bride and groom only is simply $295.00. Add 10 family members and elope for $450.00. We even have an Intimate package for up to 30 guests for $795.00. With options such as these, there’s no need to go to the courthouse. Call for an appointment to visit and tour the grounds and let us help you find the wedding that’s simple, elegant, personal, and right for you.
