I'm so tired of seeing posters use the term "eloping" to describe a private or small wedding at a destination or courthouse. If people know about it, or you have people there, it's not an elopement!!!!! It's not a secret. You told people or invited people. I know it's a silly rant, but it's a pet peeve of mine.
