About Elopelist — The Elopement & Micro-Wedding Directory

Elopelist is a curated directory built for couples who want a wedding on their own terms — intimate, intentional, and free from the noise of traditional wedding marketplaces.

What we do

We hand-pick elopement photographers, planners, officiants, venues, and other specialists across Colorado, Utah, Washington, Arizona, Tennessee, and Hawaii. Every listing is reviewed before it goes live — we check that the vendor actually specializes in elopements or micro weddings, not just accepts them as overflow bookings.

When you send an inquiry through Elopelist, it goes to one vendor only. We never auction your details to competing businesses or sell your contact information.

The Permit Atlas

The Permit Atlas records the ceremony permit rules for 36 elopement locations: the managing agency, the fees, the lead time, the group limits and the designated sites. Every value read on the managing agency's own page on the date shown. Rules change: always confirm with the agency before booking. Last full re-check: November 6, 2026.

Who built this

Elopelist was created by Edem Dogbe, an independent publisher focused on building honest, niche directories for people making decisions that matter. The goal is simple: give couples a faster, less stressful way to find the right professional, and give small wedding businesses a fair shot at reaching their ideal clients without locking into exploitative long-term contracts.
