Let me just start off with how amazing and kind Tess is! My name is Rayna and I was looking for an easy way to celebrate my love without stressing the day of like all brides tend to do day of whether they have a planner or not. I reached out to EZ Elopments after searching for the best rated elopment companies in Washington with my vision of a wedding on Mt. Rainier. Very quickly I recieved an estimate based off of a 3 hour package for a small ceremony. After talking with the planner more I was assigned Tess. She is the photographer and planner set for my area and she got right on planning. I only gave her 3 weeks to put it all together if that wasn't stressful enough on ME, but she was so happy to do so. After about a week of talking Tess suggested me to add 3 more hours on my package, she was great about giving me an area to look for an airbnb, she was very detailed looking on google maps at trails and was VERY accomodating to make sure to only look at spots that didn't require a hike due to my heart condition. We decided on a early morning sunrise shoot, with the ceremony being on the mountain, with a picnic added on. 6 hours of coverage and plenty of details given. Poor Tess was thrown a loophole by me. Last minute a week before the wedding something felt off to me. I was extreemely sad my family wasn't going to be a part of my big day. While I get that's the point of an elopment but I just couldn't not have them there. Tess immediately scheduled a Zoom call, made a plan to involve 6 family members, do 4 1/2 hours of coverage just my partner and I, and then drive to a mountain lookout spot, meet the family and officiant, and do the ceremony, then go back to the airbnb and capture the "getting ready photos" last since the plan was to get into my dress on the mountain to do first looks with my husband. Day of Tess made sure I was awake and gave me details of where to meet just to be sure it was all right. When we met she had coffee, tea, and a whole bag of snacks. All day she hung off mountain sides to capture amazing angles, showed me my hair through her lense so I could make sure I was still looking okay, helped me in and out of my hoop skirt to get to different locations, set up the picnic herself, showed me some photos as she took them, and was so organized that when I got sick on the mountain she had a kit, with a neck pillow for sleep, nausea meds, mosquito repellent, and mosquito net, and she had a pop up tent for changing in public. I'm over all amazed with how great Tess was! She deserves hazard pay for some of the shots she got. HAHA. Not to mention the officiant got a flat tire and she pulled her own spare tire out, got on her knees and took her jacket off, jacked up his car and got to work! We got great shots with our parents in the end and amazing shots with my dog as well. She made noises to get my pups attention and the shots I glimpsed at were ADORABLE. I HIGHLY reccomend this company! Even my mom told Tess she wanted to get married just to have an excuse to work with Tess herself. Hire this company! You wont regret it! read more

We cannot recommend Elizabeth and Zachary enough! We were looking for a way to get married on a tight timeline but still have an intimate ceremony for our families, and we luckily found EZ Elopements though a Google search. We planned everything in just four and a half months, and thanks to their guidance and expertise, our day was everything we could have dreamed of--personal, romantic, and incredibly special. From the very start, Elizabeth and her team were quick to respond to all of our questions. We didn't really have a concrete idea for what we wanted, but Elizabeth offered thoughtful suggestions to help us narrow our focus. She was incredibly flexible and patient as we changed our minds, and we always felt like she was listening to our needs and adapting to our vision. On the day of the wedding, everything flowed smoothly. Elizabeth worked her magic pulling together elegant decor in both our AirB&B and the ceremony venue with impressive speed and style. Zach was a huge help too--he assisted in assembling the custom wedding arch made from books that my parents had designed and built. They were always there when we needed them, and it truly felt like Elizabeth could anticipate what we needed before we even realized it ourselves. The day itself was nothing short of magical. We wanted something intimate and romantic, and Elizabeth and Zach made sure it was just that. Their calm presence helped us relax and enjoy every moment of the ceremony, and we felt completely at ease throughout the entire day. It felt like they buckled us into a rollercoaster and took us on a thrilling adventure! A particularly special touch for us was the bouquet. I crocheted all of the flowers, but I was having a tough time putting them together into a cohesive arrangement. Luckily, Elizabeth has years of floral experience, and she created the most beautiful bouquet and boutonniere for us. She even incorporated lace from my mom's dress and a locket from my grandfather--such a thoughtful and personal gesture that meant the world to us. Lastly, the photographs from the day are absolutely stunning. Elizabeth captured the personalities and emotions of our guests in such a natural and beautiful way. We have so many treasured moments to look back on, and the photos will always remind us of how truly special our wedding day was. If you're looking for a wedding planning service that is warm, professional, and truly invested in making your day unique and unforgettable, look no further than Elizabeth and Zachary at EZ Elopements. They made our wedding day intimate, personal, and full of memories that we'll cherish forever. read more

The best adventure! We had an experience that was created just for us, and I would not change a thing! The team is so incredibly detailed and patient - they took us through the entire process in just a few easy steps that ended up creating a truly amazing experience for my husband and I. First of all, I could not decide at all what I wanted for our day. I knew I wanted something just for the two of us and I wanted it to be memorable. I was all over the place and did not even know where to start. They reassured me that during the planning process we will go through all of the tiny things and we would have a much better vision of what we want as a result. They recommended different options for the time we can consider and helped understand why 2 hours is not enough to create a memorable experience. Boy, I was so happy I listened. We ended up with a 5 hour package that we then upgraded even more to be able to explore the mountains and see the waterfall the day of our elopement. The getting experience is a must! EZ Elopements makes everything so easy and their entire team is very skilled and professional (but so fun!). We had a blast getting ready separately and the team coordinated everything for us from taking photos of all of the tiny details to setting up the perfect spot for our first look. They even shared a couple of cool ideas and we had the most nerve-racking (in amazing way) moment when we finally saw each other after being blinded with face masks!! Our ceremony was so very sweet (he cried!) and intimate. There is definitely no going wrong about this if you do it with this company. They do it all, and you can definitely request some things but if you are like me and don't want to worry yourself with too many details and just want to have an amazing experience, they've got you! We had so much fun exploring the new place and would have definitely taken them up on adding a hot air-balloon if my husband was not so crazy afraid of heights! Pretty much anything you love to do together they can totally incorporate into your elopement. I'll be definitely coming back to use other services they offer and will recommend EZ Elopements to anyone I know who is getting married. read more

If you're hesitant about doing an elopement wedding, THIS IS YOUR SIGN TO DO IT!!! I was sooooo hesitant/nervous about taking the leap and eloping because I'm super meticulous and organized and a little bit of a control freak when it comes to certain things lol, but finding Elizabeth and Zack was the best thing that could've happened to us. From the first conversation I had with Elizabeth, I instantly felt so much more relaxed about the whole idea and definitely "trusted the process" as they say. She was super detailed, asked us a million questions that I wouldn't have even thought of, and gave us tips and ideas that made the day so seamless and easy. From the location we wanted, to an additional tour for more photos, a hair/makeup artist local to where we got married, down to a little picnic in their converted bus, Elizabeth took care of every single detail. We exchanged texts and emails constantly, and whenever I had a question or concern, she did all the legwork and got the answers for us. I honestly didn't have to do anything except give some inspiration photos that fit our vibe. I'd definitely recommend taking advantage of the drone add on that they offer if you choose a more scenic destination. We were hesitant if it would be worth it, IT WAS SO WORTH IT! When the day came, we were nervous if it would feel awkward or weird to have these strangers taking our photos for one of the most special days in our lives, and man were we wrong lol. After the first 5 minutes of meeting, it was like we were with old friends. Elizabeth, Zack, and Eric came in and we shared so many laughs and jokes, it honestly felt like we were on a day trip with our friends, except we got the most beautiful photos and video of our wedding in the process. Not once did I feel uncomfortable or awkward, it was honestly the best case scenario. When it comes to choosing how you want to celebrate and where you want to experience your special day, if you can dream it, EZ Elopements can bring it to life. 10/10, would 100% recommend, a million times over. read more

Our wedding was cancelled due to COVID and we had another two years past, total of 4 years being engaged, before we decided to tie the knot officially. My husband and I had decided to simply go to the courthouse but I was not 100% looking forward to being just another couple in line, with a judge to marry us and be rushed out. We have been through more than one rollercoaster together in our 9 years together and I felt we needed something special even though it wouldn't exactly what our original wedding was going to be but the EZ Elopement team exceeded expectations. I left the whole thing a surprise to my husband and the team helped make it perfect. Given our relatively quick turnaround from selecting the service and package, which was well worth it, to a nearly 2 weeks until ceremony the EZ Elopement team made it work. Tess provided exceptional options for location, amazing suggestions for dresses and grooms wear, and flowers, everything was straight forward and so easy. I had no worries with the service at all throughout the process, my only worry was the weather and even with that Tess ensured to ease my mind in that they prepared with umbrellas for the bride and groom as well as my parents who were the witness'. They found an officiant and time to work us in, without any feeling of being rushed, on Mother's Day which made it even more special because I am expecting and was able to wrap a ceremony and celebration all in one. Tess ensured to have photos of us both with my belly bump exposed and open to celebrate baby boy but also ensured we had photos focused just on husband and wife which were magical. All in all, neither of us could have asked for a better outcome and that is due to EZ Elopments. A major thank you is owed!! read more

We had our wedding in early August 2021. This is the most intimate and streamlined wedding experience you can imagine. Elizabeth and the team are very professional, efficient, flexible, and accommodating. From selecting the most appropriate package to fine-tuning location, from logistics to details the day of, EZ Elopements truly made it EASY for us. We truly enjoyed the nature, the bridal suite, and small but thoughtful arrangements on our wedding day. Really nice to meet Elizabeth and Zachary, the beautiful souls that strive to enable more memorable experiences in the future. I also understand that some brides may feel stressed during the planning process especially during the pandemic, my personal interaction with the team has always been timely and sufficient. I like that they have an online form for us to fill out ahead of time with all the details everyone needs to make it happen. The wedding industry has already made itself WAY TO COMPLICATED, and I can see why brides may easily fall into frustration/anxiety/rage with the 1000+ decisions to be made for a traditional wedding. That's how I felt too and I appreciate EZ made it much simpler for you. I would highly recommend this business to any couple who'd keep the wedding ceremony at its core, and that's exactly what they delivered to us. "Perfect" is such a stressful expectation to drive for, so for those who are looking into the modern elopement option, our wedding day was beautiful, full of NATURE, intimate, carbon-neutral, and with some pleasant surprises (thanks to nature and EZ team). And that's beyond "perfect". I can see this business to nail anniversary, shower, or vowel renewal as well. Thank you again for being an essential part of our special day! read more

We eloped August 17th of this year. We had such a great experience with EZ. We had worked hand and hand with Elizabeth for the last 7 months. We knew we wanted a small intimate wedding between just us & our baby. We were on a pretty tight budget but we knew we wanted to be out of Ohio so we started looking around for places close by that was somewhere in the mountains. We found some of the parks in Baltimore that we were drawn towards. We reached out to EZ through their website & we had a response that night. We were given so much information on different locations & prices. Once we got in touch in Elizabeth we decided that the best location for us was Baltimore, Maryland at the Rawlings conservatory. I'm not going to lie- the city isn't the prettiest we've seen. But despite the atmosphere the conservatory was perfect. For a small additional price we had the whole conservatory to ourselves for an hour. We were still able to do a first look despite arriving together. We overall had a fantastic experience with Zach & Elizabeth. I'm not always the most patient person but this experience was such a breeze & I would do it again. We had our 8.5 month old with us & Zach was so great with her for the pictures & keeping her distracted since they have a little babe at home too. We love love loved it!! The only warning I have is that everything extra has a price & they really strive for that price. With us being on a budget we couldn't really afford to go too much over so we sacrificed some stuff- but I wouldn't let that change your decision, I stuck to my budget & had a fantastic experience! So if you are thinking of eloping, I'm here to say DO IT! read more

I absolutely loved my experience with Elizabeth and her husband Zachary! I reached out to EZ Elopements at the end of April 2021, my husband and I just had our wedding in June 2022. Through the whole entire process they were so supportive. Elizabeth had great communication as we emailed back and forth and I even had her phone number to text/call her with anything I needed. She asked me every question in the book just to make sure I had exactly what I wanted as well as sending me pictures, giving me ideas/suggestions and sending me other couples galleries for some inspiration. EZ Elopements have multiple questionnaire forms you have to fill out about your needs/wants so even though you don't get to meet the whole staff until the day of your wedding, which is a bit nerve racking, Elizabeth does such a great job of capturing your ideal wedding image. I picked her log cabin location- the idea of having a forest wedding excited me and it was the best decision I've could've made. Before finding this company I was so stressed of having to book everything myself and money was our biggest issue. With EZ Elopements you literally get everything in 1 package deal. You get your venue, the space to get ready (with the log cabin location), music, decorations, officiant, photographer, pictures, & etc. all in one. Their staff (for hair and makeup) were so easy to talk to and all I had to do was show them a picture of when I wanted and they made it happen. Everyone there is super sweet and such genuine people that I would recommend them to anyone who's looking for a micro wedding or to elope! Plus Elizabeth's photography skills are TO DIE FOR! read more

Ez Elopements was the best thing we ever found! My husband and I had contemplated an easy courthouse wedding but I knew I wanted something a little more romantic and we wanted nice photos of the day and we wanted to include our dogs as well. Ez Elopment offered exactly that at a really affordable price. Tess was our planner and she was very attentative and incredibly sweet! She kept everything so organized and answered all of my questions which was appreciated. We had a wonderful ceremony on Halloween at Lincoln Park in Seattle with Moti as our officiant who was awesome and helped us complete a handfasting ceremony, and filled out all the paperwork so we didn't have anything to worry about. Riple was our photographer and in addition to taking photos, she also helped us find our way around the park to our next destination and took pictures along the way which we can not wait to see! When speaking with Tess, we decided to upgrade our "true elopment" package to include a picnic with our 2 witnesses, which came with an extra hour of photography, a fully decorated table, a cake or charcuterie board, and a choice between champagne, wine, or apple cider to toast! Selam was our picnic coordinator and she did an amazing job with a Halloween inspired table that remained elegant and romantic. Her mom even made us individual celebration crowns/head pieces which we were touched by. I can not thank this team enough for what they put together, all we had to do was show up, no headache or stress - perfect company to go through if you want an easy day that really is all about you and your partner getting married! read more

Amanda's Photos is ROCKING IT!! The best experience, ever. I never thought I'd be the type to do a boudoir session, let alone actually enjoy it -- but thanks to Amanda's Photos, I had one of the most empowering and beautiful experiences of my life. At 49, I've spent years behind the camera, taking care of everyone else, rarely putting myself first. I decided (nervously) to book a portrait and boudoir session as a gift to myself. From the first moment I reached out, Amanda was kind, patient, and incredibly encouraging. She guided me through every step with such professionalism and warmth that I instantly felt at ease. The studio atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming, and Amanda made me feel like a total queen from the second I walked in. She didn't just take pictures -- she captured me. The real me. The one who's strong, feminine, playful, and beautiful in her own skin. I've never felt more comfortable in front of a camera. She gave just the right direction while still allowing me to be natural and candid. When I saw the final images, I honestly teared up. They weren't just pretty photos -- they were pieces of me I hadn't seen in a long time. Amanda has a true gift, not just for photography, but for making women feel confident, seen, and celebrated exactly as they are. If you've ever considered a boudoir session -- or even if you're hesitant like I was -- I cannot recommend Amanda's Photos enough. She gave me so much more than beautiful images. She gave me back a part of myself I didn't know I was missing. Thank you -- for your talent, your heart, and your beautiful eye for the magic in others. read more

first of I wanna say I am not a person who writes reviews. that said, I wanted to show support to this company especially in response to some recent negative feedback because of communication being slower than they'd like. you guys, we live in a crazy time with some weird disease going around. I get that everyone is behind and businesses are falling apart but when we contacted ez elopements (and yes do note that we did not get a follow up till about a week after) we were so happy not to only hear back but be shown that they actually care. I could tell they were slightly behind but they came through and they made sure we did not feel stressed before the day, we had a really nice and perfect day they customized for us and even more beautiful photos. we actually did end up asking for specialty package and requested some additional photo work but when we did we got exactly what we wanted. we eded up purchasing all of the photos from a crazy big preview we got (over 260 photos), even though we went for a package with only 60 photos to start. It is worths it if you get a package with more photos, it is you and your memories and you should keep as many as you can. pleasant experience and great work thank you Elizabeth and the team for making the time to make sure we have amazing day even in this crazy time. you cannot find a company that cares more about you and your day, period. read more

We had the best experience with Elizabeth and Zack! Not only were they professional, organized and detail oriented... they were also super personable and such a pleasure to also get to know and work with. Elizabeth made the planning process seamless. There were so many options available to tailor this to exactly what we wanted, Elizabeth paid attention to all the little details and made things unique to our story. We chose to have our elopement ceremony in their private forest, which was gorgeous. Zackary and Elizabeth made us feel so welcome and comfortable from the moment we arrived. We absolutely loved the Bridal Suite and Groom's Den, which they built themselves! The bridal suite was so pretty, I felt like a princess getting ready in there. The Groom's Den was very cool and had a little bar. I am so impressed and happy with the little personal touches they added and how effortless everything was. Zack did an amazing job as our officiant; it was so special to us. Elizabeth guided us through everything and made the photography fun and the shots she got are so beautiful. Memories to last a lifetime. Months later we are still on cloud 9 about it and so glad we found this company! Where wedding planning felt overwhelming at first, it actually was exciting and easy with Zack and Elizabeth. I highly recommend using EZ Elopements, it was a magical & intimate experience. read more

If you're looking for an adventure elopement team - Don't look any further. Elizabeth and the EZ team truly made our adventure of a lifetime absolutely incredible. We asked and they over-delivered. Our wedding day was not only SO romantic and exactly what we envisioned, but it was incredibly fun with the whole team just hyping us up the whole time!! And I cannot forget the photos and videos they gave us afterward....TRULY they were STUNNING. I can't help but tear up just looking at them because of how truly remarkable everything was, the artistry, and the capture of the littlest moments was just incredible... We wanted an unconventional wedding for just us. And a year of planning (because I'm type A and need every detail worked out immediately) lead me to work with them when a big wedding just wasn't what I wanted anymore...and when I say they took the stress away from me - I mean it. They not only assured me that everything would be taken care of, they were there for me when I had to jump back and forth between important decisions (like having guests or not!!) If I could do it over again - I'd do it exactly the same because it was truly 'EZ' and fun and a 10/10 experience with 10/10 people.... I'm sure they're tired of me saying thank you - but I'll say it a million times for the rest of our lives... Thank you EZ team - for EVERYTHING. read more

My wife and I got married a few weeks ago with this company and loved it. My wife did all the communication with them but she kept raving about how great it was and she was really happy during the planning. It was great to see her so excited. We got married at their private forest and cabin and it was a great location. The forest was really amazing and the cabin was so cool. She took lots of photos and ones I didn't even think to get like me putting the boutonniere on our son. They even had coffee for us which was really appreciated. My wife told Elizabeth how much we love coffee so that was a nice surprise. She made sure my wife would be ok and made sure she was comfortable because she uses a cane and I appreciate her being so well taken care of. On the car ride home she couldn't stop smiling and talking about how the whole process with this company was a relief and how glad she is that we went with them to perform our dream wedding. The officiant was awesome as well. He made me feel relaxed because I was nervous and he made us smile and laugh which we needed. So thanks guys, it was great and I wouldn't change a thing. When my best friend proposes to his girl, I'll be passing him this company's information because they were great and think he'd appreciate ez Elopements hard work and their options and communication. read more

Best team to work with. I am so bummed Ive spent so much time looking around as there is literally not a better way to get married than this. EZ Elopements just does it all, and they tailor towards you as a couple. My husband and I were interested in a unique way to get married and Elizabeth helped us see all of the possibilities we did not even consider. They have so many amazing options and recommendations they will share with you during the planning process, there is just no way to go wrong. Elizabeth helped us understand our own vision we did not originally have narrowed down and put together the best package and elopement experience for us. Their photography skills are SO AMAZING. I had a really bad engagement photoshoot experience where we had to constantly pose. Elizabeth and her team provide an actual experience and they have activities you do to have fun with each other. She did not only help us create an amazing elopement but took amazing photos of it all the day of. Highly recommend + will tell everyone I know about this company, they are just so unique. Everything they offer is worth the investment (and they offer payment plans too!). Thank you Elizabeth and the team for making our dream a reality!! read more

We had an absolutely magical wedding with EZ Elopements. Huge thanks to Tess and Rashad for trekking through the woods in a rare Seattle downpour to create a truly wonderful experience. Rashad, our officiant, conducted a lovely ceremony and was super professional with the paperwork, keeping the official goods safe and dry. Tess, our planner/photographer, was amazing throughout and even stayed late in the rain, helping us feel comfortable and guiding us to poses that felt genuine and looked great. Not only is Tess a stellar human and stunningly talented photographer, she hit it out of the park with planning. She suggested the perfect venue, made sure we had everything we needed for the big day, and kindly accommodated two last-minute guests. Thanks again to the team at EZ Elopements, including James, who was our first point of contact and was speedy with answering all of our early questions. As other reviewers have noted, email communication was a bit slow at times -- if that happens, don't let it deter you from working with EZ, just follow up! The day came together beautifully, and we are over the moon with our experience. Highly recommended! read more

I cannot say enough good things about EZ Elopements. My partner and I got engaged in July of 2020, and we were far too optimistic about what planning a wedding in 2021 would entail. As a result, before we found EZ we had an event that changed probably every day for six months. Finding and booking our elopement with EZ Elopements was a relief, especially since it was so affordable. They gave us the opportunity to customize our experience, and ask all sorts of COVID-related questions along the way. As for the day of, everything ceremony-related was beautiful and went off without a hitch. This is especially difficult because our immediate families who were apart of the ceremony can be sort of...unruly, but our photographer and officiant reeled everyone in like pros! Our photos exceeded our expectations by a long shot, and it was seriously impossible to choose our favorites. If you are a non-traditional couple who doesn't want to drop your life savings on your wedding, but you still want something INCREDIBLY special-this is the way to go! read more

My husband and I got married with EZ Elopements and I'm so so happy we did. From start to finish, everything was absolutely amazing. Elizabeth was so helpful and they went above and beyond for us. Our ceremony was absolutely breathtaking, the location (private forest) was beautiful and we are so happy. They were able to accommodate special requests and are disability friendly, which was extremely important to us. Our wedding was so beautiful I wish I could go back and relive it again because they did such an amazing job. I felt so special. I've recommended this company to my engaged and soon to be engaged friends. Thank you again for all the amazing help, the beautiful ceremony, the accommodations, the photos (which were so fun to take) and the coffee haha! 10/10. Especially with covid still going on, we felt so safe and are so glad we went this route instead of an expensive large wild wedding with the unneeded stress. Thanks Elizabeth and EZ Elopements! read more

Working with Zach & Elizabeth was fun and easy! My husband and I got Engaged in March 2023 and by October 2023 we were married and now happier than ever! As you can assume planing a wedding in less than 6 month is definitely stressful!!!!! However, I am happy to say that the stress for us came more from picking a color scheme and who to invite than worrying about the actual set up and ceremony! Elizabeth and Zach made it stress free! Although it may have DOWNPOURED the day of our wedding - the ceremony still went on and it could not have been more perfect! I would recommend ezelopements to all of my friends! My Husband and I did do a private ceremony - just the two of us, Zach and Elizabeth! So I would say for couples who choose the micro wedding option and want pictures with family to ask about the photo packages beforehand. 50 pictures i was plenty for us since it was just the two of us, but family photos will more than likely make you desire more. read more
