Thank You for Still Believing in Love: Elopement Wedding in Spain

Everyone dreams of their wedding day as a child. It is the theme of many fairy tales we enjoyed as children. We all gush and maybe even shed a tear or two as Cinderella has a ceremony with the Prince before they proceed to live happily ever after.

Your wedding day is the special day you get a chance to say “I do” to your soulmate and start your journey of happily ever after. For many, it is the subject of fantasies through the years. For others, it’s just an occasional thought that pops up now and then.

Whether you’ve spent time dreaming about your wedding day or not, the moment you get engaged, you are captivated. You begin planning what you hope will be a memorable and beautiful ceremony. A celebration that represents how important this new milestone is to you.

Elopement Wedding in Spain: Love Above All

So, what do you do when the pandemic strikes? What goes through your mind when one minute you heard wedding bells and the next, they were replaced by the sound of rushing ambulances. What do you say when to keep your loved ones safe, you have to stop them from being a part of your big day?

Well, for many couples in 2020, the answer was moving on. The solution was cutting down on guest lists while understanding that the most important thing was their love. So, they went from planning big and boisterous ceremonies to organizing small and intimate weddings. Their plans changed from big parties with extended family to small gatherings with only those most important to you.

The wedding industry is a versatile one. You see, celebrations like these had existed before. We already had in existence weddings where it’s just you and the love of your life saying your vows under gently rustling leaves. They were known as elopements or elopement wedding.

So, when Covid-19 reduced the number of people at social gatherings, couples switched to beautiful elopement weddings. These fantastic celebrations were a testament to the resilience of the human spirit when it comes to love.

So again, we ask, what would you do in this situation? Would you immediately start to search for a picturesque location with breathtaking views for your vows? Would you look for a place where you and your partner can say your “I dos” to the sound of birds chirping? Where you can remember how the sun glistened off the lake nearby as your partner promised to stand by you? Would you search for a special officiant who understood your love story and could represent it? Someone who could tell your love story just how you’d like it to be said?

2020 was the year where couples showed us that “Yes, they Can.” Before this pandemic, many people viewed couples getting married as picky. Many movies abound of Bridezilla’s canceling ceremonies because a vendor did not get a color right. But that didn’t happen in 2020. This time, couples rose to the occasion and showed that love conquered all. They proved beyond a doubt that the determined human mind can accomplish anything when choosing an Elopement wedding.
