Both Las Vegas and Hawaii are popular elopement locations, but they are not right for everyone. The glitz and glamour (or should we say, clamor?) of Vegas does not always mesh with a couple's idea of romance and the cost of flying to Hawaii's shores is becoming increasingly prohibitive.
A recent industry survey from The Wedding Report indicates that "destination weddings have gotten closer to home." It's no wonder, with air fares (and everything else) skyrocketing. Why not elope to the sunny shores of the Pacific for a breathtaking sunset beach wedding?
While many of California's Pacific Coast popular wedding sites require you to obtain a permit regardless of the size of your wedding, rest assured that we can point you in the direction of some equally beautiful (but lesser known) spots that are absolutely free! Many of these spots are known only to us locals and you won't find them on the map.
Lyssabeth's Monterey Wedding Officiants can perform a simply beautiful secular (civil) or nondenominational religious elopement ceremony at many locations within Monterey County, as well as in nearby Santa Cruz. You may choose to celebrate with just the two of you ($199) or perhaps you'd like to share your ceremony with a few friends and family members ($219). Either way, you'll be guaranteed an intimate and memorable experience that you will cherish for a lifetime.
