Minister Major, Jen and Melissa were fantastic! I would highly recommend their services if you are marrying in the area. Highly attentive and responsive! read more

Major and Jen were fantastic! We did a very last minute booking, same day. They helped us with all of the logistics so that our nuptials would be special just for our family of 4. Mind you we had no idea what/ where/ how & we only spoke a few hours before we were officially married. We are so blessed to have meet them! read more

Kristin and I can't thank Major enough. We stumbled upon Elopers site months before our big day and after one call with Major, we were excited to book! Major was such a pleasure to work with. Always accessible and responsive and made our wedding ceremony special. Major takes a lot of pride in his work and it was clear. I would recommend anybody that is searching for a professional top-notch wedding officiant, look no further. Thank you again! read more

Major was great! He was helpful throughout the entire process and he did a great job as our officiant.

Major and his wife Jen made our special day even more special. We used the Elopement chapel and had our family in attendance, they were extremely welcoming and friendly to everyone. Major spoke during the ceremony like he had known us for years. We were extremely happy with our decision!! read more

I could not recommend Elopers enough! Jen was extremely responsive to all our emails and Major was the perfect fit for our day. He personalized our ceremony and made it exactly what we wanted. They were easy to work with and wonderful from start to finish. read more

Phenomenal service from the very kind and professional couple that run this business, Jennifer and Major. They were flexible and quick to respond, incorporating all we wanted in our ceremony and tiny reception. One of my biggest fears for my wedding was having an officiant who says cringe-worthy comments or goes on and on, and so it was a great relief to meet Major and not at all be chagrined by the ceremony he led. Reasonably priced and very quick to respond. Our ceremony and reception with immediate family went so well! read more

For my wedding I wanted to work with local Frederick companies and came across Elopers on Wedding Wire. I love their business model! They mostly market themselves to couples looking for small, intimate weddings and can help coordinate non-traditional weddings in the city or Gambrill State Park. They can also officiate more traditional weddings and have day-of-coordinator services. Our wedding was somewhere in-between, and we loved working with Major and Jennifer. Both of them are kind and thoughtful people! Our ceremony was perfect, Major's words and demeanor made for a beautiful moment for us. Jennifer helped maintain our schedule -- she wrangled us for the procession and photos, and double-checked that our vendors were all set. They were a great wedding vendor to have on my team. I highly recommend Elopers for your upcoming wedding! read more

Wow! Where do I begin, Major and Jennifer we absolutely outstanding and professional helping us make our special day perfect! Jennifer was the best communicator, and Major was prompt and on time with everything. They made us feel comfortable and independent on how we would like things to go. We choose the location and Major came to seal the deal. I recommend this small husband and wife duo to anyone that can get away with eloping. ZERO stress and ALL LOVE! read more

What started as a surprise intimate ceremony for my soon to be wife quickly morphed into our actual ceremony amid COVID, and this team was ready for the challenge. They tirelessly worked to help us find a venue, organize all our vendors, and hammer down every single detail. Jennifer, our primary coordinator, made herself available at the drop of a hat and genuinely helped us feel better every step of the way. Because of her, my one piece of advice post marriage is getting a coordinator. Not just any coordinator, but get one like these folks- smart, savvy, compassionate, flexible, and willing to learn. We worked with them to organize a Hindu Ceremony and a Christian ceremony, and Jennifer was willing to understand and learn every single ritual we hoped would become a reality. I cannot say enough that she was our lifeline the entire way. We would not have had our perfect wedding without them. HIGHLY recommend! read more

If you are eloping, there is no better couple to work with to achieve a more personal, beautiful, intimate ceremony. They are professional, kind and genuinely nice people who care about giving you and your significant other a day you both will love and cherish. Everything was perfect for us. I honestly believe who they are in general is what made our day complete . Thank you Jennnifer and Major! You know I could keep going on about how happy you both made us! read more

If you're looking for a quality, flexible service for someone to marry you, this company has it down! My (now) husband and I decided that after getting engaged only a few months prior and contemplating all  the options of weddings, receptions and EVERYTHING in between that we just wanted to marry each other in a small ceremony just the two of us. I read the reviews for this service on Yelp and turns out it's all true! Jennifer was expedient with a response to my inquiry and they even provided me a customized package (we literally just needed a person authorized to marry us in VA). I didn't use the name change service or have music or anything so I thought the reduced price for the basic service I needed was totally worth it! The transactional part was easy and everything was done online including payment. I had a phone interview with Major, our officiant, and he was very engaging and asked a lot of questions about us as a couple. He really wanted to get to know our story! I felt an instant connection so I booked. Major wrote the most beautiful civil ceremony customizing a script for us. He gave the opportunity for us to provide feedback and comments. The script was so perfect we didn't change a thing! Major was on time to our ceremony and performed it beautifully! Him and the Elopers staff truly made our day stress free and so special! Needless to say, I highly recommend this service! read more

From the beginning to the end, Elopers was a complete pleasure to work with! I would recommend them, without a doubt. Major took the time to listen to our ceremony requests, arrived early and made us feel special. Thank you Elopers!! read more

My husband and I wanted a small, intimate and memorable wedding. After our first phone call with Major, we knew Elopers could make this happen. We picked the coldest day in February to get married at the Frederick Overlook and Elopers was all in to make our wishes come true. The weeks leading up to the wedding Jen was very efficient with communicating every single detail to us. She made us feel very comfortable and we had absolutely no worries. Our wedding day tuned out amazing, way beyond our expectations. Our friends and family were in awe over the idea of us getting married in the mountains in a secluded and intimate setting. If you want a memorable wedding day, Elopers will make it happen. read more
