For Couples Who Want to Get Married, Not Overwhelmed
Elope 253 helps couples have simple, meaningful elopements and small weddings in Downtown Tacoma with an ordained officiant, chapel ceremony and easy planning support.
Why Elope 253 Exists
Our Mission
Elope 235 was made for couples who want to get married in a way that feels personal, joyful and low stress. Maybe you are skipping the ballroom, the giant guest list and the pressure to turn your wedding into a huge production. Maybe you would rather spend your money on something else. Or maybe you just want to marry your person and start your life together.
Whether you live in Tacoma, visit from a neighboring city, or travel from far away, our hope is to give couples a simple, yet eloquent wedding that celebrates them in a thoughtful and unique way.
