Entity reports on whether you should have a destination wedding, go to a courthouse or elope.

The subject of marriage can be a tricky one, especially when it comes to the aspect of the ceremony. Sure, destination weddings are beautiful and memorable, but they are also extremely costly. So what’s the best marriage option for you and your soon to be spouse? Read on to evaluate your options.

1 Elope

The stigma surrounding elopement has always been prominent, especially since it’s become a way for two young people to tie the knot without parental consent. But there are more reasons behind a couple’s decision to elope than you might think. For those of you who don’t want the judgement of their family and friends or to waste money, eloping might be the most viable option.

BENEFITS:
– You save money you would have spent on extravagant dresses, venues, flowers, cake and other traditional wedding shenanigans.
– You don’t have to endure the stressful wedding-planning phase.
– You don’t have to deal with in-law squabbling or decorating disagreements.

DRAWBACKS:
– You may just become a social pariah and hurt your family’s feelings.
– You won’t have a grand ceremony to mark the momentous occasion.

2 Courthouse Wedding

The courthouse wedding option is perfect for those who still want a substantial ceremony with family and friends present but don’t want to shell out the big bucks. 

BENEFITS:
– Low cost, low hassle!
– You’ll still have the traditional archway.
– You are surrounded by loved ones – always a plus!

DRAWBACKS:
– Getting 
married in a government facility may seem impersonal.
– You may have to exchange vows amongst civilians paying off parking tickets or performing other menial duties.

3 Destination Wedding

A destination wedding is perhaps the most traditional method of marriage. Many people dream of a fairytale wedding their entire lives, so the opportunity to perfectly tailor their ceremony in a beautiful and picturesque setting may be ideal.

BENEFITS:
– Everything from the location to the bouquet to the dress will be exactly to your liking. You can feel free to splurge on an artistic wedding cake and celebrity entertainment.
– You can pick a location that holds a lot of meaning for you and your spouse-to-be.
– You’ll have many lasting memories and pictures to frame.

DRAWBACKS:
– A boatload of seemingly never-ending expenses.
– The stress of wedding planning may be confining.

All in all, though many factors go into choosing the perfect wedding ceremony, know that the choice is ultimately yours. Whether you want to tie the knot on a Hawaiian beach or in the safety of your own backyard, what truly matters is that you and your soon-to-be spouse will have a loving and fruitful future ahead of you, no matter the venue
