The 10 Best All-Inclusive Elopement Packages

Elopements have become increasingly popular. More and more couples are swapping out big destination weddings in favor of smaller, more intimate gatherings with only parents or a few close friends in attendance–or no one at all. 

But just because your wedding is smaller doesn’t mean you want it to be any less romantic and special. If you’re planning to elope with the love of your life, we’re here to help with our list of the 10 best all-inclusive elopement packages around the world. 

(Remember that if you plan on eloping in a foreign country, it’s essential to know the specific requirements for your marriage to be legally recognized when you return home. The regulations and guidelines for eloping differ from country to country, so it’s crucial to research before making any arrangements. The wedding coordinator at your resort should be able to help you.) 

Sandals Resorts in the Caribbean

With luxurious beachfront adults-only resorts in some of the Caribbean’s most beautiful and romantic locations, it’s hard to find a reason not to elope at a Sandals resort. High-end amenities, tons of included activities and dining options, and comprehensive all-inclusive rates make Sandals an easy choice for destination weddings, including elopements, honeymoons, and vow renewals.

Couples eloping at Sandals resorts can choose the free Sandals wedding package if they stay in a club or butler room for at least 7 nights. The Sweetheart Wedding Package ($100 otherwise) is good for up to 10 people and includes an onsite wedding planning team, preparation of documents, 15% off spa services, a $200 credit towards photography package, a $200 credit towards a video package, a beautiful ceremony location, pre-recorded music, an orchid bouquet and boutonniere, a private 1-hour cocktail reception with hors d’ouevres and sparkling wine toast, a two-tiered wedding cake, a honeymoon dinner with sparkling wine in a specialty restaurant, and a $100 credit toward either a private candlelight dinner, a pool or beach cabana, or scuba diving.

You also get the Sandals honeymoon package, which includes chilled sparkling wine, a sweet treat, turn-down service on your wedding night, and breakfast in bed one morning. And on your anniversary, you get a free night on 7 paid nights in a club or butler room

Another option is the Sandals Two Lovebirds Elopement package ($1300 for two people). It includes a team of dedicated wedding planners, all the necessary paperwork, a couple’s massage, a bridal attendant, 10 digital images, a beautiful ceremony location, pre-recorded music, rose bouquet and boutonniere, a 1-hour cocktail reception with hors d’ouevres and sparkling wine, a two-tiered wedding cake, and a private 4-course candlelight dinner with sparkling wine.  

This also comes with a honeymoon dinner with sparkling wine in a specialty restaurant, the Sandals honeymoon package, and a free night on your anniversary stay.

You can also work with the Sandals wedding team to design a custom ceremony. 

Beaches Resorts in the Caribbean

If you’re planning a family trip to the Caribbean, consider Beaches resorts for your elopement ceremony. Owned by Sandals, they also offer free, all-inclusive elopement packages for 7-night reservations, but with the added benefit of being family-friendly. That means the kids will have the Kids’ Club to keep them busy while parents enjoy some quiet time during the first few days of wedded bliss. 

Beaches Resorts also love to add extra Bells & Whistles like tiki torches, a sangria bar, and activity credits when you book more rooms for your wedding party. The more rooms you reserve, the more perks you get. Inviting a small group of friends and family would be worth considering. 

The Four Seasons Resort, Bora Bora

French Polynesia has been a long-time favorite destination for couples looking for romance, seclusion, and luxury. When you combine the opulence of the Four Seasons with the beauty of Bora Bora, you end up with the perfect spot for a luxury honeymoon or elopement. 

The Four Seasons Bora Bora has two wedding packages designed with only the couple or a small group of friends in mind. The Colorful Dream package costs $5000 and comes with unique features like a grand entrance via the lagoon aboard a Tahitian canoe, a romantic gourmet meal on the beach or in your overwater bungalow, a bottle of champagne, 50 photographs, and a special Tahitian song and dance performance during your ceremony. For an additional $650, you’ll experience a 15-minute drum and fire dance performance by traditional Polynesian dancers. 

The Pearl of Love Package includes dazzling elements like a shower of Tahitian petals, a 60-minute spa treatment for couples, a videography package, and even a light display or fireworks. 

Couples Swept Away, Negril, Jamaica

Couples who reserve 3 nights at the adults-only all-inclusive Couples Swept Away (or Couples Negril, Couples Tower Isle, or Couples San Souci) can enjoy the complimentary One Love Elopement Package for themselves and up to 4 guests. A wedding planner and coordinator will help you bring together everything for your dream wedding, including the resort’s state-of-the-art sound system, a professional photo shoot and one 8 x 10 printed portrait, access to an exclusive gift registry, a small wedding cake, and your choice of one of dozens of beautiful on-site wedding locations. You’ll also get matching celebratory “Just Married” T-shirts. 

Couples resorts in Jamaica also offer an elopement package called The Runaway Bride Wedding, which includes everything the One Love Package does plus a private dinner for two on the beach after the ceremony and a 25-minute couples’ massage to enjoy at your pleasure. 

The Jamaica Inn, Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Although one of the top luxury resorts in Jamaica, The Jamaica Inn has an affordable elopement package. It gives you the choice of a beautiful lawn or a stunning 700-foot stretch of private beach, each offering a pretty view of the Caribbean where hundreds of happy couples have said “I do.’”

The Jamaica Inn’s elopement package requires a minimum 5-night stay. Seating and ceremony accommodations for up to 10 guests are included, along with a small wedding cake, a bottle of sparkling wine, a professional photographer to capture all the happy memories, live music, and bridal hair and makeup. 

Please note that elopements at the Jamaica Inn must be planned at least 30 days in advance as the hotel requires that time to process the documents required to get married in Jamaica. 

Lone Mountain Ranch, Big Sky, Montana

If you’re not a fan of beach weddings, consider eloping to Montana’s stunning mountain ranges. The Lone Mountain Ranch offers two picturesque wedding venues that are perfect for couples seeking a private, intimate ceremony. They also provide two elopement packages for both summer and winter weddings. 

A summer elopement package includes a cake, cozy accommodations in a cabin, transfers to and from Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport, a tour of Yellowstone National Park, a 1-hour couples’ massage, a horse-drawn wagon ride to your wedding venue, a private horseback ride with a picnic lunch, and a special ranch memento to take home. 

The winter elopement package is significantly cheaper. The ceremony will be held indoors in a beautiful cabin, followed by a sleigh ride and dinner at the North Fork Cabin. Guests will also get ski or snowshoe gear, a 1-hour couples’ massage, and a private moonlit snowshoe tour with delicious hot cocoa. 

Bungalows Key Largo, Florida

Bungalows Key Largo in Florida is a beautiful beach honeymoon and elopement destination in the U.S. The cost of the ceremony will differ based on the chosen date. Rates are lower during weekdays, higher on weekends, and highest during holidays. Also, a 4-night minimum stay is required to secure an elopement package. 

The Duet Elopement Package includes a private ceremony on nearby Coconut Beach followed by a champagne toast, champagne and rose petals in the room, a professional photographer, and a pre-set dinner at an on-site dining location of your choice. 

Breathless Resorts

Not only can you get a reasonably priced elopement ceremony at any of the adults-only all-inclusive Breathless locations across the Caribbean, but guests who elope at Breathless can enjoy complimentary anniversary nights with reservations of 4 or 5 nights. 

Other items included in the rate are a hydrotherapy circuit for the couple, a 15% discount on spa treatments, a photo album with 20 professional digital photos, a free room upgrade and romantic turndown service, a welcome package that includes sparkling wine and fresh fruit, breakfast in bed the morning after the wedding, and late checkout. 

You’ll get standard wedding preparations like a wedding organizer to ensure everything goes off without a hitch, preparation of wedding attire, hair and makeup for one, a bouquet and boutonniere, wedding cake, sparkling wine, and a romantic dinner arrangement. 

The Four Seasons, Seychelles

If you want to elope to the exotic and jawdroppingly gorgeous Seychelles islands in the Indian Ocean, check out the Barefoot Love wedding package at The Four Seasons in Seychelles. After an intimate ceremony held at the shoreline of Petite Anse beach, the happy couple will enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner with a slice of wedding cake for dessert. At the same time, resort staff will prepare a romantic floral bath in your honeymoon suite. A bottle of Veuve Clicquot will be waiting for you to toast the rest of your lives together, along with a special surprise wedding gift. In the morning, a romantic breakfast will be served in your villa. 

Additional services include round-trip transfers to the resort in a luxury vehicle, a wedding coordinator to help make sure your big day is exactly how you imagined it, pressing and preparation of wedding attire, a fruit plate and a demi-bottle of champagne on arrival, and a boutonniere and wedding bouquet featuring lovely and fragrant frangipanis.

Villa del Palmar, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Balmy Puerto Vallarta is beautiful and easily accessible from almost any airport in the U.S., and Villa del Palmar Beach Resort & Spa has an elopement package that costs a fraction of what a large wedding ceremony and reception would. The Fly Me to the Moon Elopement Package features your choice of scenic locations where you can exchange vows underneath a flower-adorned canopy. A one-hour photo session is also included. If you invite a couple of guests, Tiffany chairs can be provided. 

For your Mexican wedding, a coordinator will be available to assist you with preparations. They can help you design a stunning bouquet and boutonniere using gorgeous tropical flowers. The bride will also be able to try out some makeup looks and hairstyles. While the bride gets ready on the big day, the groom can unwind at the spa with a Nourish and Revive Facial. Couples will get a 15% discount on other spa treatments and appointments in the beauty salon if they want an extra treatment like a couples massage or manicure. 

After the wedding, a private dinner will be served on the beach. A romantic turn-down service includes a bottle of wine and chocolate-covered strawberries in the honeymoon suite. 

All-Inclusive Elopement Packages FAQ

What comes with an all-inclusive elopement package?

Most all-inclusive elopement packages will include paperwork, an officiant, ceremony location, a bouquet and boutonniere, witnesses if needed, and some form of post-ceremony reception with cake and sparkling wine. Some will add extras like a couples massage or romantic dinner, and some offer more elaborate wedding ceremonies and receptions. It all depends on the resort you choose.

How much do elopement packages cost?

Elopement packages range from free (with a minimum stay at a resort) to thousands of dollars, depending on where you go, when you go, and how many guests you want to have.

Where should I elope?

When it’s just the two of you for your wedding, you can truly get married anywhere. Find a place that is meaningful to both of you, like the city where you met, the first trip you took together, or a dream destination.

If you’re going to honeymoon there as well, make sure the ambiance and activities suit you both. For example, if one of you loves the beach and the other loves to golf, find a beach resort with an onsite golf course. If you just want to lounge around and leave your honeymoon suite only when necessary, choose the most beautiful room you can find. If you’re both foodies, choose somewhere that offers a variety of delicious cuisines. All-inclusive resorts like Sandals are a popular choice because they offer something for everyone and are located on gorgeous Caribbean islands.
