Elopement to O-Town

GreenGuppy

Hello Central FL Knotties...

We are contemplating on taking our union on the road to O-Town, so I am looking for recommendations of location, officiants, photographers, and all that jazz.

The only thing I ask is no beach recs and nothing more than $1000 total. Also, we need an officiant that does non-religious ceremonies. It will be just me and the Mr. so we don't need to much space.

Thanks in advance :0)

is your total budget 1000 or just for the venue?  My photographer was Tabitha McCausland, she was AMAZING!!!  She was about $2000 but was worth every penny.

Winter Park is a beautiful place, they have a rose garden and if it's going to be just the 2 of you you could do a ceremony standing right in there.

Not much help with the officiant (we took off to Vegas)

Good luck with everything!

we would like to get everything done for $1000 or less

have you thought about a hot air balloon wedding?  that could be cool and different.  I think you're going to run into the biggest financial issue with the photographer. are you wanting downtown orlando, disney, celebration, melbourne, cocoa?

Celebration has a beautiful grassy area in front of a lake that would be nice

I'm only in the disney/celebration area.

I'm more than happy to help out anyway I can!

Contact local officiants and parks (city, county, state, and federal/U.S.)  With an officiant and a park permit you can get married pretty much anywhere.

The parks in Winter Park are very nice and there are plenty of restaurants nearby for an intimate meal after the ceremony.  http://cityofwinterpark.org/Pages/Departments/Parks_and_Recreation/Parks/Kraft_Azalea_Garden.aspx
