Run to an Elopement

I had been a little bit nervous about planning our elopement in Hocking Hills. While my husband and I knew we LOVED the beauty of it and it felt like "our" place, we didn't connect with any of the officials listed on the tourism association webpage.

Determined to keep trying, I kept searching, and eventually found Windi's information. After a few minutes on her webpage, I felt like I'd known her for years. We sent her an email and within a few days had a call scheduled. It felt like talking to a lifelong friend. She asked so many thoughtful questions and we knew immediately that she would be the perfect person to marry us.

From that moment, it felt like everything was taken care of. She worked closely with us and our photographer to pick the day, time and location and make sure we had everything we needed. She sent timely emails to check in and see how everything was coming along (which, having just started a new job and being stretched way too thing, I REALLY appreciated!!) and made us feel so at ease.

On the day of our wedding, she hiked with us to Rock House, totally unphased by the unexpected puddles and mud and slippery rocks. I cried so many tears of joy and absolutely treasure the beautiful crystals and herbs from the ring blessing service we added on.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Windi for helping set us on the path of marriage so beautifully!

Run to An Elopement was a PERFECT addition to our wedding day! Windi was our officiant, and she wrote the most BEAUTIFUL and thoughtful wedding ceremony for us. The first time we spoke was over the phone, where she told us all about her process and asked us a ton of questions about our love story & how we met. She then integrated into the ceremony, as well as what's most important to us going into our married life together. We recieved so many comments about how wonderful the ceremony was--there was laughter, tears, and most importantly joy that really came through thanks to Windi. She was very flexible when we ended up moving our wedding due to COVID, and even met with us for coffee a month before our wedding to get to know each other even better! During our rehearsal, she did a great job organizing our wedding party and families (which we know is like herding cats) and made sure everyone was comfortable for the big day. Windi is patient, kind, transparent, and we were so lucky to have her there with us, both during the meditative moment and during the ceremony. Run to An Elopement will always have a special place in our heart. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Run to an Elopement made our last minute ceremony feel like a dream! My husband and I had to postpone our large wedding ceremony due to COVID-19, but we still wanted to tie the knot this year, on the planned date. Run to an Elopement did a wonderful job of making our special day feel special, even though it wasn't how we had planned it. Amy was friendly and kind, she beautifully officiated our intimate, outside ceremony in such a way that we will remember it the rest of our lives. Run to an Elopement followed up with instructions on how to order our marriage certificate and guidance on changing my name as well. Truly couldn't ask for anyone better!
