A Maryland Halloween Elopement
Dressing up as your favorite couple, or inviting your guests to dress up, is a sure way to have one of the most memorable Halloween microweddings ever. Having a themed wedding based on your favorite characters from the same story would be absolutely legendary. This idea can be whimsical, dark, and romantic, or even a little spooky depending on your twist in style. Not to mention, a post-wedding Halloween Party would be so much fun. And imagine how much fun celebrating your anniversary every year would be!
An Autumn Adventure Elopement Among the Maryland Trees
Think of how beautifully a white dress would stand out and complement the warm autumn forest colors?! Can you see it? I can! Maryland has several incredible rocky vantage points within its state parks. Imagine standing on a peak, looking over the beautiful orange and yellow leaves as the sun sets. Rocks State Park King & Queen Seat and Cat Rock View Point are two wonderful options.
A Renaissance-Themed Micro Wedding
If you’ve ever wished you were a hobbit in the Shire, or have an affinity for medieval festivals, maybe a Renaissance-themed micro wedding is exactly what you need. While the Maryland Renaissance Festival hosts micro weddings, they only offer them for a limited time.
I know this option isn’t in Maryland, but it’s close! There is a dreamy castle micro wedding venue in Virginia, The Ruins at Castle Grove, that will transport you to another era. This beautiful stone structure, nestled in the woods, offers a peaceful, intimate space to host your wedding with up to 50 guests.
A Maryland Fall Cabin Micro Wedding
Inviting your closest friends and family to a beautiful cabin for your elopement may feel more natural and comfortable than a large venue. Renting a cabin in the woods with enough space for your ceremony and the after-party would be the sweetest way to honor yourselves. Have you seen how stunning an A-frame cabin looks with string lights? Some warm, comforting foods for an intimate dinner with your guests. Perhaps some s’mores and a campfire?
Fall is particularly romantic and beautiful, reminding us to slow down, be warm with one another, and it’s the perfect time to promise the rest of forever with your partner.
