When people think about the difference between a wedding and an elopement, most focus on the guest count. But in today’s episode of Just Us: Rewriting the Rules for an Intentional Elopement, I’m sharing why it’s actually about something much deeper: focus.
While traditional weddings often revolve around the event—the production, the performance, the pressure—elopements shift the focus back to what matters most: the two of you, the promises you’re making, and the freedom to experience it fully.
I’ll also share a bit of my own story as someone who had a big wedding... and what I wish I’d known back then.
If you’re craving a day that centers on connection, not performance—this episode will help you hold onto that vision, even if you feel the pull of tradition.
