Eloping has quickly become a trending and affordable alternative to elaborate wedding ceremonies for couples. Did you know, 13 million tourists visited the Smoky Mountains in 2023. I would love to know how many of those people were eloping. If you’re a bride in need of a Tennessee elopement idea, let me share Aleana’s and Jimmy’s intimate cabin elopement.

Aleana and Jimmy had an intimate elopement ceremony with no one present except their children and have asked not to include them in this post.

After the ceremony, the children broke out their bubble machines and had a bubble fight with their parents. If you have children, this was a really sweet way to include them in your day and capture authentic smiles and laughs.

Overall, their photography coverage was around one hour. I recommend two to four hours so you can include getting ready, first looks, and more portraits together. I understand every couple has different priorities for their day. I’m happy to customize a package to provide you with exactly what you need not an hour more or less.

The Smoky Mountains are a beautiful location to elope with many options to offer. Check out my other blog Best Smoky Mountain Elopement Locations for more ideas on how to elope in the Smoky Mountains.
