Pat and Amy’s original wedding day didn’t look like this at all due to COVID forcing them to cancel, rearrange, and postpone every plan they made. Ultimately they decided to elope in front of Amy’s old apartment in St. Pete, in a neighborhood they would frequently take lots of walks in when they first began dating. We all agreed it was so perfect, fun, and relaxing.

My advice for COVID couples:

1. Be flexible. Allow plans to evolve. You may be surprised at how much you love your intimate wedding or elopement.
2. Keep your vendors in the loop before making any hard decisions!
3. An intimate wedding or elopement is just as meaningful as a 200 person wedding. Hire an amazing photographer, and then trust them to photograph your day in an honest + beautiful way.
