All you need is love was the motto for this stunningly simple New Orleans elopement. Foregoing their large guest list, venue, and reception, Michelle and Ryan were able to shift their focus from material wedding day details to cherished moments. They wanted a day with no time constraints that fully allowed them to soak up the soon to be memories. 

Erin and Geoffrey Photography captured the true beauty of eloping. From the sweet get ready moments at the Roosevelt Hotel to the first look in the French Quarter, every minute will have you dreaming of an intimate celebration. 

If you’re not yet convinced small “I do’s” are for you, you will be after catching one glimpse of these inspo-rich photos. Get your Pinterest boards ready and keep scrolling for a legendary outfit change, hotel room cake cutting, and a sunset rooftop first dance.
