Yes and no. An elopement focuses on just the two of you, and if that’s what you desire, intimate weddings fit the bill perfectly. But if you still want to share the moment with your nearest and dearest you absolutely can – just on a smaller scale in terms of guest numbers. On average we usually see 10 guests.
We will host multiple celebrations throughout the day but never at the same time. We book our ceremonies 2 hours apart dedicating 1.5 hours for your ceremony, so you never overlap with another couple. Your ceremony is private, and will be a stress-free wedding ceremony of your dreams at a fraction of the cost, simply by sharing the big-ticket expenses across multiple ceremonies – namely venue rental, decor, floral and photography!
Of course you can. In fact, it’s a lovely idea to have the wedding just with your family and closest friends and then head somewhere like a restaurant for a celebratory lunch or dinner with the rest of your social circle. Other suggestions include a beach picnic, a high tea or a champagne brunch or pub crawl. At the end of the day, a intimate weddings incorporates all the best bits of a more traditional ceremony. The main advantage of our services is that we strive to provide a stress-free day that is beautiful, thoughtful and budget friendly without compromising on your wedding vision.
There is the opportunity for personalization - your attire, the bouquet, and the music that plays before and after the ceremony and during the signing of the documents.
Elements such as décor and styling remain the same for each ceremony. We work and focus on neutral tones and beautiful touches in keeping with elegant style and wedding trends. We consult with all of our couples to ensure that they are happy with our planning process including the look and feel of the day.
Absolutely. You can still send the groom ahead as per normal and then walk down towards the ceremony, with or without attendants, as your processional song plays. There’s also scope for a bit more personalization. We encourage people to let us know what they’re after and then we try to find a way to fit it into their ceremony and their budget.

Vogue & Rogue Weddings guarantees that all of our weddings are conducted by a fully licensed Wedding Officiant. We take this responsibility very seriously, as a result, we do not allow outside / unknown clergy or officiants to conduct our weddings. However, we know that some couples have clergy members who are important to them and want them to be involved in the ceremony. Here is something to consider… have your own clergy assist Priceless Celebrations in the ceremony. We are happy to discuss this in more detail.
Please note that all costs associated with the addition of your clergy/officiant is your responsibility and is not included in our packages. Our packages includes your clergy/officiant and is not subject to a cost reduction to offset your costs of the additional clergy/officiant.
All of our weddings are 100% legal. Priceless Celebrations is licensed to marry couples in the province of Ontario. All legal officiants are registered with serviceontario.Ca/gettingmarried. Our Officiant works directly with you to inform you of the steps involved. They make it as easy as possible without getting bogged down in trying to figure it out on your own.
Simply put: ● You apply for a marriage license which you will provide in advance to your wedding officiant. ● The officiant who performs your marriage will send you a complete and signed marriage license to service Ontario. ● The complete and signed marriage license is then registered with service Ontario. This is called a solemnization of marriage. You can order a marriage certificate about 6-8 weeks after the signed marriage license is sent off.
The answer is no. We have partnered with an award-winning photographer who will provide you with 5 edited photographs with the option to buy extra images directly from Stephanie of Live & Breathe Photography. A professional photoshoot is part of the package, so there is no opportunity to bring a photographer to the wedding. Should another photographer present themselves at the wedding in an official capacity, they will be asked to put their equipment away and enjoy the wedding as a guest only.
