About

Leveraging their industry expertise and experience, Elope with Us has the ability to offer couples a luxurious celebration alternative to traditional high-cost weddings.

Elope with Us takes great pride in partnering with what they consider to be Vancouver's leading wedding vendors, which include John Bello Photographer, Denise Lin Photography, Faye Smith Agency, The Cake & The Giraffe.

Unmatched Expertise and Loveliest Humans!

From the very beginning, Michelle & Lisa have been invaluable to the execution of my wedding day! They made expert recommendations and helped me save money while still helping me make my vision come to life! They have tons of experience and have great connections to excellent wedding vendors. They gave great guidance, were always quick with responses and were very attentive and lovely in all our interactions both in person and through meetings and emails. They are detail oriented and will definitely think of things that I otherwise would not have considered if I did this on my own. By the time we were in the car on the way to our reception, we already received some behind the scenes photos to enjoy of the portraits we just did. I do feel they both went above and beyond, we had the very best day!

Just Because it's an Elopment, Doesn't Mean it Can't Be Nice!

Lisa and Michelle were an absolute delight. If you come away with nothing else from this review, know this: they'll take care of you.

Everything was super organized since the beginning. From the first consultation calls, to the various check-ins leading up to the big day, my wife and I felt like they were handling everything. And, as someone who is above-average in anxiety, pretty much anytime we had some mild worries, Michelle and Lisa's attitude communicated: "hey, chill, we got this."

And that's the gist of it! What was initially (before meeting Michelle & Lisa) a daunting year-long project soon just turned some zoom calls and a "multiple-choice" menu of selections.

And on the wedding day itself, they took care of everything, and anticipated / had Plan Bs and Cs for everything. 10/10, it was so great! Also, the fact that they 100% know how to talk to any Chinese aunties / uncles was a MEGA bonus.

Amazing Planners for Small, Intimate Wedding

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Michelle and Lisa for our small, intimate wedding in Vancouver. From start to finish, they were thoughtful, attentive, and truly listened to what we wanted. They were incredibly organized and curated a fantastic team of vendors - from photography to hair and makeup - who helped bring our vision to life. On the big day, they took care of all the little details so we could stay present and enjoy the moment stress-free. If you’re planning a wedding in Vancouver, we can’t recommend this amazing duo enough!

A pleasure to work with

My wife and I sought the professional assistance of Elope with Us for our small, intimate wedding and we couldn't be happier with the results. They took the time to help us shape our vision for our special day by listening to our needs, checking in about how we were feeling, and by offering helpful suggestions. Every little detail was taken care of and accounted for, which made the planning process so much easier and less stressful. On the day of our wedding we were able to be present with our guests and let our planners guide us through the whole process. They truly went above and beyond. We highly recommend their services.

Highly recommend!

My husband and I wanted a smaller wedding as big events can be pretty tiring for us. We aren’t big on planning events so we knew we wanted wedding planners to walk us through everything and we contracted with Elope With Us, about a year before our wedding day. Throughout the whole process, they truly went above and beyond for us! I know planning a wedding can be stressful, but I was at ease every time we had a meeting with them as I trusted that everything would go smoothly. They were very responsive to us and were super on it when connecting with our vendors. On the day of our wedding, I really had nothing to worry about and I was relaxed and able to just enjoy the whole day. They really thought of everything for us and the small elements that me and my husband wanted to incorporate were seamlessly woven in. They really got us and our vibe so the whole day felt very authentic to me and my husband’s personalities. Everything was so beautiful and they ran a tight ship throughout the whole event, at the same time, allowing for some flexibility. The pace of the whole day was perfect. It was busy, but didn’t feel rushed and we had time to mingle with everyone. They really went above and beyond with the decor and how everything looked. 100% worth the service and I would definitely recommend them to anyone planning a small wedding!

Our wedding planning experience

My husband and I used to live in Vancouver but now live in another province so when we decided to get married we wanted to get married in Vancouver. Since we knew it would be hard to book everything ourselves due to the distance, we decided to check if there was any elopement packages that we could try to make our lives easier. That is how we found elope with us and the rest is history! Michelle and Lisa have been super great during the entire booking process and always communicated excellently via zoom calls and emails. They are also super professional, helpful and understanding and we are super happy to have gotten married from them since all we did was show up and everything was ready to go for us and everything was so beautiful! 100% recommend!

Expertly Planned, Effortlessly Executed – Our Perfect Day with Michelle and Lisa

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Michelle and Lisa, and we couldn’t have asked for better planners! From the very beginning, their professionalism and warm personalities put us at ease. Michelle was incredibly organized and brought so much expertise to the table, which made the entire planning process smooth and enjoyable.

The most impressive thing they did for us was plan an intimate wedding for 50 people in less than two months – we honestly didn’t think it would be possible, but Michelle and Lisa made it happen effortlessly! They provided us with a clear list of tasks to complete, with specific deadlines, which kept everything on track and helped reduce any stress.

On the day of the wedding, I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. The timing of the ceremony was flawless, and they took care of organizing the wedding party and keeping everything on schedule. It was such a relief knowing we were in such capable hands.

Although Michelle and Lisa weren’t directly responsible for the reception, they still went above and beyond by assisting with the food and beverages, and helping us plan the order of events for the activities. Their attention to detail and responsiveness was second to none – they were always easy to contact and their emails were always thorough and detailed.

If you’re looking for a wedding planner who’s not only highly skilled but also genuinely kind and easy to work with, look no further than Michelle and Lisa. They truly made our special day everything we dreamed of and more!

Dream Wedding!

Our wedding was a DREAM. Michelle and Lisa went above and beyond our expectations. From the start of wedding planning to the moment we stepped foot inside our venue, we just can’t express how grateful we are for all their hard work and dedication. They were with us every step of the way and always paid attention to all the little details. They took such great care of us (always made sure we had water to drink) and our family and friends. Thank you so much Michelle and Lisa! We’re in awe of how effortless you made everything seem. Our wedding was truly perfect.

Perfect experience from start to finish!

Michelle and Lisa made the wedding planning experience so easy, straight forward, and fun! We couldn't be happier with how everything came together on our special day, and are so grateful to their expertise. All we had to do was show up! Both Lisa and Michelle were super responsive, attentive, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. I'll never forget how wonderful this experience was ❤️

Simply Wonderful

Michelle and Lisa were great. We had clear communication throughout planning our wedding. They referred some amazing people to work along side us. The photographer and make-up artist were wonderful people. They helped secure our venue and had everything planned out without us needing to lift a finger. Wonderful experience and I'd recommend this to anyone who's looking for anyone in need of support organizing their wedding.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
