Whether it's a sunrise elopement at Kraft Azalea Garden, an elopement at Leu Gardens with a few friends, or you're eloping at a Florida courthouse, I'm a photographer who can partner with you to photography your special day. I'm even a photographer in Central Florida who can marry couples during their photo session if you want the easiest possible marriage ceremony experience.
I'm Elizabeth Millar
I photographed my first wedding on a borrowed camera in 2008 and spent the next decade doing large elite weddings in Europe.
I now bring this professionalism and class to weddings of any size and pride myself on making budget conscious weddings look expensive.
I've done over 600 traditional and micro weddings and 300 elopements in the courthouses of Central Florida.
I'm ordained to officiate marriages and recommend only using me for this during elopements with just yourselves or very few guests.
A. There are a few different terms being used to describe the various types of small weddings available to couples. A “micro wedding” might have up to 50 guests while an “intimate wedding” or a “nano wedding” might have up to 20 guests and an elopement is usually just the couple (they might have their children with them).
A. You can apply at any County Clerk’s office in Florida. Non-residents have no waiting period, meaning you can get your license and get married the same day. There are also a few counties in Florida that offer virtual appointments to get your marriage license in Florida no matter where you are in the world.
A. No. Florida is one of the few states that does not require witnesses. You only need a valid license and an authorized officiant. I happen to be a photographer in Florida who is also able to officiate marriages.
A. Yes, a 3-day waiting period applies to residents unless you complete a state-sanctioned 4-hour premarital course (which also discounts the license fee). These courses are very easy to find and complete in a short amount of time online. Just print the completion certificate and bring it with you to your license appointment.
A. My couples come from all over the world year round. Even in the high temperatures and humidity of July and August, I’m often doing more than one elopement a day. But if you’re looking to plan your elopement around the weather, I highly recommend November thru April. If you want to get married at a courthouse and still get a golden hour sunset for your photos, I recommend December or January as the latest appointment times at the courthouse can also coincide with sunset If timed just right.
A. Rain is definitely a reality in Central Florida and 6 months of the year is hurricane season. My couples often opt to elope at the Orange County Courthouse in downtown Orlando due to the covered areas outside and the beautiful building inside where there are many places for us to have a full photo session without getting wet. Regardless of where you want to elope, I’m able to come up with a plan for a location that offers possibilities in the case of rain.
A. I have a very robust list of elopement location ideas in Central Florida and they include places like Kraft Azalea Garden , Harry P. Leu Gardens , many Central Florida courthouses , beaches, and even a museum The Maitland Art & History Museum.
A. Yes absolutely! I would say the majority of my elopement couples are here from out of the country, mostly from the UK and Ireland. They usually choose to either get married at the Orlando Courthouse or elope somewhere out in the wild with me marrying them during their photo session. From the legal aspects of how to get married in Florida to the locations where you can elope in Central Florida, I know everything there is to know about how to elope in Florida and I love helping my clients navigate the red tape to enjoy the most peaceful marriage experience possible.
