You guys, we did the unthinkable. Actual blood, sweat + tears went into this roundup of our 20 favorite elopements. With so many incredible celebrations of love; from the tops of the Canadian Cascades to the narrow cliffs of Norway, you can imagine how difficult it was for us to choose…but #GWSelopementweek makes you do crazy things!
It’s been a major *love* interest since the dawn of Green Wedding Shoes, and we’re thrilled to continue our passion of elopement inspiration! All the love and high fives to the couples who have followed their hearts over the years, and shared these phenomenal illustrations of love with us to share.
