Destination elopement brides

I feel lost in planning! It feels "too easy" but we're not doing a big shabang so maybe it's just way less to do? What all do you have on your planning lists?


We're getting married in Greece (from USA, just the two of us + 1 friend that's doing my hair/makeup) We've booked our trip (minus flights, too early), secured venue, and photographer. We're undecided about flowers. Do I really need a bouquet? Still deciding on if I want one. We've picked out a couple of places that offer private dining for dinner and will book one of them. I haven't gone dress shopping but we're 2 years out, same for his suit.
What am I missing? 2 years feels like forever but between COVID brides, COVID itself, and regular engagements everything is booked up so far out.

    It sounds like you're really on top of it Rachel!! You can probably just chill for awhile!

    Everything is very go-go-go with wedding planning once you get engaged, but once you lock down your wedding vendors you can relax for a little bit! Wedding planning definitely happens in sprints and lulls. 😉

    Honestly I think you have everything covered! We're doing a "destination" wedding in the states, and the only thing on my list that isn't on yours is rentals for our beach ceremony (but we're also having a small wedding instead of an elopement). I personally wanted the flowers, even when we were thinking about actually eloping - mostly for something to do with my hands 😂
