    Couldn't Have Asked for a More Perfect Wedding

    From start to finish, Jenny and Matt have been amazing! The entire process was easy and straightforward, and I felt their support even through email. Even if the Great Quar wasn't happening, eloping with Eloping Is Fun! was the best decision for me and my husband to get married. We love how personal our ceremony was and how relaxed the photo session was. Frank and I just wish we didn't live on the other side of the country because we'd love to hang out with Matt and Jenny more!

    Stress-free and fun!

    I was 5-days out of my wedding looking for a wedding chapel in Brooklyn. Googled wedding chapels in Brooklyn and first to come up was Eloping is Fun! I took a look and was sold. Reached out and got a quick response. Signed my contract, filled out our love questionnaires and wait for the date to come. Had my wedding at Domino Park, officiant, video and photographer ready, guests ready. Custom written ceremony, video of our ceremony, and photo session over exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much team!! You guys and ladies are the best!

    Exceptional!

    Eloping is Fun captured our attention for multiple reasons. First, we liked the various packages that we could choose from that would allow us the ability to design our wedding experience as desired. Second, we liked that they had a quirky & fun vibe to how they conduct business. Lastly, the reviews were fantastic and allowed us to really get a feel for how our day would go. We were able to talk to Jenny early in the process by phone to get a more personal feel for Eloping is Fun and their services and to explain our vision of the day. These things allowed us to not only be comfortable with the decision to get married in New York City even though we live in Texas, but comfortable in our decision to choose Eloping is Fun. Jenny remained responsive to emails throughout the process. Through the whole experience it was obvious that the Eloping is Fun really enjoyed what they do and was skilled in wedding services.

    We chose to go with Jonica for our photographer, Joel as our officiant, the vintage taxicab, and the musician to play at our ceremony. We were not disappointed with our decision as everyone was so friendly and motivated to create such a great & lovely experience for us. Our wedding was less of an elopement and more of a micro wedding as we had thirty-five guests. Throughout the process we continuously would receive emails on next steps and various questionnaires for the company to get to know us better. So, the day of our wedding in early October, it was supposed to be cloudy but no rain. We had been nervous as the days leading up to the wedding day it had rained on and off throughout each day. The original plan was to do our first look at Central Park, before proceeding to Brooklyn to take additional pics before our ceremony in Dumbo Park. Mother nature had something else in mind as it began to rain around 2pm just 30 minutes before our first look. Though a little wet, we were able to get amazing pics at Central Park. Due to the continuous rain that became heavier, we had a change of plans and had Peter take us to Grand Central Station in the vintage cab. Though not in our original plans the décor and backdrop of Grand Central Station turned out as a great idea. Jonica was fantastic toughing through the wet weather along with us, but her positivity, and outgoing personality never wavered. She kept the mood lighthearted & fun throughout the day.

    Because of the rain and wind, the ceremony location changed with our wedding reception venue allowing us to hold our wedding ceremony there along with the other events already planned. Jonica coordinated this with Joel, Jenny, & Peter which turned out a success. We highly recommend going with the vintage cab. Peter & Jonica worked well together, and the cab turned out to be a fantastic addition for the day. We still took pics at Dumbo Park before the ceremony and Jonica let no time go to waste as she took several pics as we sat in the back of the cab as we made our way over to Brooklyn. She even endured the rain while we were in the warm cab as she took pictures from outside the cab through the back window. Once at the reception venue we met Joel who had received a questionnaire from the each of us the week prior that would be used to create the opening remarks. Joel’s words were beautifully written and really captured our love for each other and detailed our relationship over the years. He had a nice balance of seriousness with the jokes that not only made us but our guest laugh. He brought life and character to our written words. Just like that we said goodbye to Joel but had Jonica for the rest of the night. She constantly checked up on us giving us ideas for pics but also asking what angles we wanted or who we wanted to take pics with.

    Though we had to modify our plans, we enjoyed our wedding day in part due to the professionalism, work ethic, & dedication of Jonica, Peter, & Joel. We are happy with the decision we made and see why so many people choose to use Eloping is Fun. We cannot thank the Eloping is Fun team enough. If you want a ceremony that is fun and with minimal stress, we recommend that you reach out to them. We recently received all our pics and wow they are amazing. Jonica did a fantastic job that day!
