Elopement

Is Elopement for You?

Maybe you’re starting from scratch rather than canceling what should have been a sizable soiree. Maybe you’re looking into elopement as a second option if your wedding can’t proceed as planned. Or maybe elopement is always exactly what you and your spouse-to-be have had in mind.

Whatever has brought you to the idea of elopement, South Lake Tahoe is the place to watch that dream come to life. Here, you can tie the knot in a chapel, say “I Do” with your toes in the sand, or even hike up into the hills—as long as you can find an ordained hiker to come with.

Think of your elopement as a destination wedding, minus the cost and stress of bringing along your whole crew. However, there are still some details you’ll want to take care of before you make your way to South Lake Tahoe. Here are some tips for planning your Lake Tahoe elopement.

The Forest Suites Elopement Experience

Elopements may be simpler than a wedding with 100+ guests. But there are still some details you won't want to overlook. The Forest Suites Elopement experience considers every last element so you don't have to. Give your Lake Tahoe elopement a traditional feel without all the stress of planning and hosting
a big event.

AN OFFICIANT

Though elopements often do away with pomp and circumstance, you’ll still need an officiant. We provide one as part of our inclusive Elopement Packages.

THE GUEST LIST

Elopement don’t always include guests. Yet elopements have recently become synonymous with a small, no-frills affair. Forest Suites offers an elopement package option that leaves room for 25 people should you want to make room for close family and friends.

Ceremony Locations

Your ceremony location is what will set the tone for your elopement. If you and your spouse-to-be love the outdoors, consider a mountaintop. If you both have a passion for the ater, consider tying the knot at the lakefront. Forest Suites offers several ceremony locations that each channel the peacefulness and romance of South Lake Tahoe.

FOREST SUITES CHAPEL

Keep your elopement more traditional by tying the knot in our chapel. Elopements have an hour-long exclusive access to the chapel.

THE ARCH TAHOE

South Lake Tahoe is known for its blue waters and sandy beaches. Sink your toes in the sand as you tie the knot at The Arch Tahoe, less than a mile from Forest Suites.
