(ARA) - There's always a feeling of romantic
rebellion when eloping is mentioned. It can be a good way to save money,
but you should keep in mind the pro's and con's of eloping.
Although it might be a good idea at the
time, will you regret not having a wedding in the years to come? You
might want to keep in mind a few of the things below:
PROS
It's cheaper
Eloping is significantly cheaper than the traditional wedding. Would you
rather spend money on the reception hall rental, or on plane tickets to
the Caribbean?
It's simpler
You don't have to spend a year on wedding planning
Duration
Of course, there is the cost of the rings and the honeymoon, but these
last beyond the few hours that the average wedding ceremony and
reception go for.
The Style
You can marry whenever and wherever you like
It's fast
If a fast wedding is what you are looking for, eloping might be the way
to go.
CONS
It only happens once
Your wedding day will be one you will remember for the rest of your
life.
Regret
Will you look back on it and regret not having your friends and family
there with you to share this special day?
Memories
Although eloping might be a good idea, will you miss not having the
memories of a wedding day in the years to come?
Friends and family
There will be disappointment among family and friends when they’ve
learned you eloped. Your parents will almost certainly regret never
being there when you get married. If your parents’ wishes are a concern,
you may want to think twice before eloping.
