FAQs
Question
Why elope?
Answer
We just weren't comfortable spending tens of thousands on one day. We believe marriage is about two people, and that's how we wanted to enter into our marriage. This was of no ill intention to our family or loved ones. BUT we made sure our day was captured well, stay tuned for more pictures and video of our ceremony
Question
How did we manage to elope during COVID-19?
Answer
All of our vendors were still on board to go through with the day. They took the necessary safety precautions as did we. The most amount of people present during our day was 7-8, and 5 for most of the day (photographer, videographer and us). Most didn't go as planned, but everything turned out perfectly.
Question
Are you pregnant?
Answer
We know that when some people think of elopement or "shotgun weddings" they think there is motive behind it (like pregnancy) but NO, we're not pregnant :)
Question
Will there be a reception?
Answer
Unfortunately, no, but of course when we see everyone in person we're always down to make more memories.
Question
When are we coming back to Florida?
Answer
Due to COVID-19 (and flight prices and dog sitting services), we're not sure when we're visiting. BUT hopefully sooner than later
Question
Why isn't Missy in the photos?
Answer
Y'all know Missy is our little baby! But if you know Missy, you know she does too much sometimes, and we didn't have time or the patience (imagine chasing a super fast dog around a canyon - nope!). She had her first session of boarding with dog sitters and made some puppy friends.
Question
Are we registered anywhere?
Answer
Thank you! We didn't register anywhere because there are no wedding festivities for anyone to partake in. However, if you wish to share a card/gift with us in celebration, we appreciate your generosity and can send our address.
Question
Why not elope in Florida?
Answer
Sedona was in our backyard (2 hours away) and already had a special place in our hearts. Plus, could we really top that scenery?!
Question

Our ceremony was at Bell Rock, Sedona, AZ and we took our engagement pictures at Chuckwagon Trail, Sedona, AZ
Question
