Elope to Austin

Come and elope in Austin, Texas: it’s a hub of so many things yet maintains a small-town charm. It’s the state capital, home to the University of Texas, and a center for music, food, and film. Located in the heart of Hill Country, Austin has spectacular natural escapes nearby. The area has also earned the nickname of Silicon Hills with all of the tech companies in town. “Keep Austin Weird” bumper stickers still dominate, though the city is really too cool for its own good. Elope in Austin for a weird and wonderful wedding day!

What do you think makes eloping in Austin so special?

Austin is a little oasis of fun and funky spirits in Texas! This city boasts several unique venues that range from scenic hill country chapels to cool urban spaces – a little bit of the traditional and the unorthodox swirled into one.

Tell us about one of your most magical elopements in Austin!

A sunset ceremony on the hill of Chapel Dulcinea. The gorgeous red and purple hues of the sky were a dreamy backdrop, and once the sun went down, the chapel itself was lit by romantic lanterns.

What’s your favorite elopement venue in Austin?

I’m a sucker for vineyards, so the Vineyards at Chappel Lodge never disappoint, no matter the season!

It’s No Secret…

Traditional weddings are incredibly expensive and can take years to plan. When couples choose to elope, their ceremonies can be planned quickly at a fraction of the cost. But don’t take our word for it!

Great company to work with!

- Essence and Ryan

Loved the experience. It was everything we wanted and are so happy.

- Dezeree and John

Our overall experience was great! Very happy to be married and with no stress AT ALL.
