This Couple Flew to Paris for the Elopement of Their Dreams!

August 27, 2022 / Posted by in Real Weddings

What makes an elopement so romantic, apart from its intimate nature, is that it can happen anywhere! In the middle of the woods, on a mountaintop, at a beach, there are so many possibilities. So, why not fly to the very city known for beauty and romance? Paris, the City of Love and the City of Lights. When the idea of eloping in Paris came up, Matthew and Kiara didn’t have to think twice! They first had a civil wedding here in the Philippines to legalize their union, and then they were off to say I do’s by the Seine River with the Eiffel Tower in plain sight.

Kiara tells us more details about her Paris elopement right here. See how it all turned out as you scroll through these photos by Through the Glass Paris

Matthew and Kiara

"I was scrolling through Facebook when I stumbled on this 'Elopement In Paris' blog. I've already been to Paris twice. It's one of those few places which I wouldn't mind going back to. I pitched the idea to my husband and he got really excited!" - Kiara, Bride

"We felt more comfortable exchanging vows without having to break a sweat and worry about the crowd. There were no distractions, no stress, and no expectations." - Kiara, Bride

"The HMUA did my make up at the hotel where we checked in which was just a budget hotel, Hotel Bellevue et du Chariot d'Or. We informed the officiant that we only wanted a short ceremony, roughly 30 minutes, and we spent the rest of the day for photo ops." - Kiara, Bride

"We had our dream wedding in the City of Love, and we were also able to travel. Just imagine yourself with your other half enjoying a warm croissant, tasting an authentic French macaron, taking a river cruise on the Seine, seeing the Eiffel Tower sparkle at night, window shopping at Avenue Champs-Élysées...There's just so much to tick off your bucket list!" - Kiara, Bride
