It’s such a precious experience to document special moments like this. If you’re planning an elopement, honeymoon or couples’ session – read on below about how to make this happen.

When you elope in Dubrovnik, planning ahead will help ensure your special day goes off without any hitches. I am here to help you plan any activities for your elopement day & to get you in touch with any caterers, tour guides, picnic planner, florists, etc. I have a list with tons of highly reviewed vendors.
Ideal locations
The biggest benefit to eloping in Dubrovnik is that there are a variety of locations to choose from; some more private than others. You can consider the City Walls and Minceta Tower which is situated right by the town walls – it’s perfect for sunset photos, stunning views and romantic moments with your partner! If you’re looking for something even more unique, consider exchanging vows underwater or at Lokrum Island on a private beach. The possibilities are endless!
Marriage Requirements
Before you elope in Dubrovnik, it’s important to familiarize yourself or get help understanding all legal requirements that may be necessary if you plan to get married outside of your home country.
