Eloping at an Airbnb

Have you considered eloping or holding an intimate wedding ceremony at an Airbnb but not sure where to begin planning? Eloping at an Airbnb is a great place to have your wedding especially if it's in a dream destination. It can be a romantic getaway for just the two of you, or if you're planning on bringing family, can be a great spot for everyone to stay. There are so many beautiful Airbnbs all over the world for you to stay at from waterfront properties to adventurous mountain cabins in the heart of the woods. Your options are endless!


But before we dive deep in why you should elope at an Airbnb, I must tell you that some if not most Airbnbs require an event fee. This just means that the property itself can charge a fee for weddings + events happening on the property. Make sure to double check ahead of time if the specific Airbnb you choose allows events to save you headache down the line.




Here are 10 reason why you should elope at an Airbnb:




1. Intimacy and Privacy:

  • Airbnbs often provide a little bit more privacy compared to traditional wedding venues. This creates a more intimate atmosphere for you and your partner as well as any friends and family you choose to invite.


2. Unique and Personalized Settings:

  • Airbnbs come in various styles and settings, allowing you to choose a location that aligns with your personal preferences. You can choose a location such as a cozy cabin or a beachfront cottage. It's important to find an Aibnb that resonates with your vision for your day.


3. Cost-Effective:

  • Eloping at an Airbnb can be a great cost effective options compared to having your elopement at a venue. You can find affordable locations that still offer a beautiful backdrop for your ceremony and celebration, allowing you to save on vendors like florists, photography, hair + makeup or even a catering company.


4. Flexibility in Location:


  • Airbnb properties are available in diverse locations, including scenic mountains, a cabin in the forest and beachside cottages. This flexibility allows you to choose a location that holds significance for you as a couple and one that fulfills your dream vision for your elopement day.

5. Steering from Tradition:


  • Eloping at an Airbnb provides a more relaxed and informal environment. You have more freedom and flexibility to plan your elopement in a way that feels meaningful to you without sticking to traditional wedding norms.


6. Personalization and Control:


  • Airbnb elopements offer more control over the details. You can choose your decor and any other elements that are important to you when searching for the right stay, allowing for a highly personalized experience. When looking however, make sure that your Airbnb allows events and larger celebrations.


7. Hosting a Hair and Makeup Team:


  • Airbnbs are super accommodating for hair and makeup teams as well as other vendors like florists and cake makers who can easily access and drop off florals and desert.


8. Planning Made Easy:


  • Planning an elopement at an Airbnb can be simpler than organizing a large-scale wedding. With fewer guests and a more intimate setting, you may find the planning process to be less stressful and more enjoyable.


9. Memorable Experiences:


  • Staying at an Airbnb often provides a memorable experience compared to a standard hotel. Airbnb hosts often personalize your stay so you feel right at home and can add to the overall charm of your elopement day.


10. Picture perfect Backdrops:


  • Many Airbnb locations offer gorgeous, natural backdrops for your elopement or wedding. Whether it's a scenic mountainous view, a beautiful garden, or a cozy interior, these landscape settings can compliment your day.
