Fall is literally the most popular time of the year for weddings. So it would stand to reason that it's one of the most popular times of year to elope too! Most of the country has ideal weather in the fall (there's a reason Tennesseee Fall is my favorite season) and there's always so many fun things to do when you go somewhere fun in the fall, I mean what town or city doesn't have some sort of fall festival? Here's my list of the top places to elope in the fall based on their weather and potentially how busy it'll be around that time of year.
Wedding registries are honestly so stressful to build! But if you don’t register for /something/ people (especially great aunts) will go off-book (and you’ll have to figure out how to return seasonal, quilted table runners…) so I do recommend taking time to register for literally anything that’ll make your life together easier! And after a couple years married, there are definitely items I swear by and others that we could totally live without- so here’s the list of my fav things we got that have really come in handy!
