A dreamy Paris elopement shoot, with Amanda Karen Photography

Published by Claire Gould on June 7, 2021

I wonder if 2021 will be the beginning of a surge in elopements… a year when couples put being married before all the frills of a wedding, and tie the knot, just the two of them, in the most romantic and dreamiest of ways. Perhaps this beautiful feature will inspire a few of you lovelies to consider an elopement. (And remember, the big party can always come later!)

The glorious images you’re about to see tell the story of a couple eloping to Paris to marry in the capital city of romance. Our bride’s beautiful Savin London gown is perfect for a statement bridal look on the quaint Parisian streets. Her groom’s dapper Alexandra Wood suit matches perfectly, and the stunning bouquet created by a local florist couldn’t fit the luxe elopement look better!

This was all sent in by our lovely friend and destination wedding photographer Amanda Karen Photography, who says, “I could spend hours and hours wandering the streets of Paris, the cafes, stunning doorways and beautiful streets are a photographer’s dream for shooting.”

“Of course, you can’t shoot a Paris elopement without catching the Eiffel Tower, but head there early for minimal tourists! There are so many other little spots we passed on this Paris elopement shoot and so many ideas for couple portraits that we just didn’t have time to do!”
