Stay at Juniper - Elopement Packages With Everything You Need
Oh hey - are you thinking that the big traditional 200 person wedding is just - not your thing? Is your Aunt Cindy somehow already waaay too involved in this day - that is supposed to be about you and your partner? Are you feeling overwhelmed because - uh, you are NOT a wedding planner and how do you even find vendors you love and trust? If you desire a stress-free elopement planning process — at one of the best venues - Juniper Lodge and Treehouses, this could be the perfect match!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY “ELOPEMENT”?
We offer a few different packages depending on your vision and how many people you are inviting into this space. This day can just be the two of you, or your 15 closest friends/family. Having a small wedding or elopement doesn’t mean you have to compromise your dream wedding. In fact - having a smaller wedding might allow you to do more of the things that are important to you. Vows in a forest? Staying the night in a tree house? These are all more affordable and doable if there are less people. "Eloping” doesn’t just mean going to the courthouse like it used to. You can sign your marriage certificate anywhere!
WHY CONSIDER LETTING US DO ALL THE WORK?
There is a lot to consider when planning an elopement, like finding the perfect venue/spot (CHECK!), time of year, photography, flowers/decor, hair and make up (if that pertains to you), accommodations and more. Our vision is to make this experinece feel as seemless as possible while also finding vendors that align with you and our values. The vendors we have choosen are people who value inclusivity in this industry. They don’t discriminate against race, sexual orientation, size, religion, ability, etc. It’s important to us to support these extremely talented artists. And we hope this is important to you too.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGES?
The packages entail everything — (or nearly everything)— you would need for an elopement. We have a few different options.
So, with our all-inclusive packages, you can have that small, intimate ceremony you’ve always dreamed of while having multiple areas of wedding planning taken care of. The important thing is - you found us! So, consider everything else checked off your list!
NEXT STEPS?
Here are some questions to ask yourselves before jumping in to ensure you and your partner connect on how you want this day or weekend to look.
1. How much do you want to spend?
Like with any other type of wedding, determining your budget for a micro wedding or elopement is an important first step. Work out your budget early on, especially if this is a destination elopement with travel expenses to factor in. Carefully plan out your budget with your partner to figure out how much you want to comfortably spend. And what your priorities are.
2. How many people are you thinking?
While it’s a given that a micro wedding or elopement will be small, you’ll want to determine just how small. An elopement is typically just the two of you. A micro wedding can range anywhere from 10 to 15 guests. Or you could have the ceremony with just the two of you and a reception on a later date! Knowing who (if anyone) you want to invite into this sacred space with you will make it much easier to proceed with the rest of the planning.
3. What is your vibe?
Are you wanting a cozy, relaxing winter wonderland with a simple ceremony and a cheers with some hot cocoa after? Or a fall ceremony with a little hike to a lookout? We have all four seasons in Evergreen and sometimes all in one day. Time of year is definitely something to consider.
Not sure - we can help! Here is a brief description of our three packages below.
