A second marriage elopement is often about doing it your way this time. Fewer expectations, less fuss and more of the two of you, somewhere that takes your breath away.
I'm Leon, an accredited celebrant and photographer based in Llandudno. Here is how eloping works when one or both of you have been married before.
Why Couples Choose to Elope Again
Many second-time couples have already had the big day. What they want now is meaning: a ceremony that tells the story of how you found each other, and a day that feels calm rather than staged.
The Paperwork if You Have Been Married Before
The legal side is the same as for anyone marrying in Wales, with one extra document. When you give notice, GOV.UK asks you to bring a decree absolute or final order, or your former partner's death certificate. Is eloping legal in Wales? explains the rest.
Bringing Your Children
For blended families, an elopement can be a lovely way to include children without a crowd. Kids and dogs are welcome, and we keep it as small as possible. Your ceremony can give them a part too, from a reading to simply standing beside you.
A Setting Without the Climb
You do not need to be a hillwalker. A mountain elopement without a big hike shows views you can reach in a few steps.
