You have decided to Elope. Perhaps you have a local place in your mind that would be perfect for an elopement ceremony.

Perhaps you are combining your elopement with a trip you have already planned. You have decided to combine your elopement ceremony with a mini honeymoon and return home to announce your marriage.

If you are planning your elopement in an area you are not familiar with you will need assistance with the details of the area. In California for instance, if you are planning an elopement ceremony the micro climates are a very important factor to take into consideration.

They can effect the time of day and the location for your elopement ceremony. If you are planning your elopement ceremony to take place in San Francisco on the beach, should it be coast side or bay side? Should it be near 2 or near sunset? Will your fantasy for your elopement ceremony match up with the reality of your elopement ceremony?

Here are a few pointers. Ask yourself the following questions before you plan your elopement ceremony location on a beach.

If you are thinking of a beach elopement ask yourself:

Do you want your feet in the sand while you are exchanging your wedding vows? Most couples say no. They want to be near the water.

How many people will be on the beach during your elopement ceremony? Beaches in most states are public. Even with a permit the space is still open to the public.

What time of the day will offer the best whether conditions for your elopement ceremony? For a coast side elopement ceremony you would want to begin before the trail winds begin.

Will I be cold during my nuptials? It isn’t fun to be cold during your wedding ceremony.

How far is the walk to the beach from the parking? How far is too far?

If you wait for a sunset elopement ceremony, will there be enough light for wedding photography after your ceremony?

Consider the season of the year for your elopement.

If it is winter the beach will be cold. Few people go to the beach in the winter. If it is summer, there will most likely be people on the beach.

Most couples that are seeking a beach elopement ceremony are interested in the water element. There may be a better choice that includes a water element and is in nature that would provide a more comfortable environment for your elopement ceremony.

Insight is always better then hindsight. It is much more delightful to plan for the desired outcome rather then have your wedding ceremony become the sad story of your elopement.
