For some couples it can be the perfect solution for their nuptials.  Don&#8217;t get me wrong, the big weddings with loads of people are a ton of fun&#8230;  but they can be terribly stressful as well.  Some people just find all the planning and details too overwhelming so the opt for an elopement instead.  Now just to be clear, I&#8217;m categorizing very small weddings in the &#8220;elopements&#8221; column, I know that technically that&#8217;s not accurate&#8230;. fight me. LOL!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These guys opted for a small wedding (elopement).  They had their ceremony at the county courthouse and a lovely lunch with a handful of their closest friends and family.  Thats it.  A gorgeous dress, one bouquet, store bought flowers for the flower girls, and a catered lunch on a private balcony all add up to&#8230;&#8230;  one PERFECT wedding celebration.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are a couple of photos of the adorable flower girls, the brides two nieces.  <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-683x1024.png\" alt=\"Two darling flower girls with flower head wreaths at Palm Springs City hall.\" class=\"wp-image-8502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-710x1065.png 710w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-808x1212.png 808w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-222x333.png 222w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-320x480.png 320w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography-304x456.png 304w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photography.png 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer.jpg\" alt=\"Black and white candid of someones hand adjusting a flower crown. \" class=\"wp-image-8501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer-710x474.jpg 710w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer-808x539.jpg 808w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer-222x148.jpg 222w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer-320x213.jpg 320w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer-304x203.jpg 304w, https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Palm_Springs_elopement_photographer-96x64.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/christinearnold.com\/elopements\">Palm Springs Elopements<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azucarpalmsprings.com\/\">Azucar Restaurant, Palm Springs<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.palmspringsca.gov\/\">Palm Springs City Hall<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you been considering eloping?
