Twin Cities Elopements: Civil Ceremonies & Intimate Wedding Celebrations
MINNEAPOLIS | SAINT PAUL | THE TWIN CITIES
Intimate Minneapolis and St. Paul elopements designed around your story, your pace, and your people.
Intimate Weddings in Minneapolis & St. Paul, Done Your Way
Not every wedding celebration needs a ballroom, a timeline packed to the minute, or a 150+ guest list.
Some weddings are quieter. More personal. More true to uniquely you.
A Twin Cities elopement is about choosing presence over production — creating a day that reflects your relationship, not expectations. Whether that means exchanging vows with just the two of you or gathering a small circle of your favorite people, your wedding can be as simple or as layered as you want it to be.
This is your permission to do it differently.
WORDS FROM REAL COUPLES
G & A
"Kayla and Zoey were able to capture all the big and little moments from our elopement, some that I didn't even see until I was looking back on the photos. They are incredibly thoughtful, kind, and gifted storytellers. The photos are exactly how we envisioned, and more importantly how it actually felt to be there on our elopement day. We are absolutely in love with them."

"We were working on a small budget with an elopement-style wedding and just a few guests. Kayla and Zoey were accommodating and worked out a package that fit into our budget without compromising too much of the coverage we wanted. Kayla kept in regular contact throughout the process and I was never lost or confused. I was planning everything myself and they didn't make me feel small for not having an extravagant event that fit into a particular aesthetic, which was a problem I ran into with similarly skilled videographers. Overall, their customer experience is amazing and they are so supportive from start to finish."
A Wedding Day That Feels Like You
Couples who choose a Minneapolis or St. Paul elopement aren’t scaling down — instead, we know you're choosing to refine.
We know you're choosing:
- intention over expectation
- connection over performance
- experience over tradition for tradition’s sake
That might look like writing private vows you actually have time to feel.
It might mean sharing dinner instead of a formal reception.
It might mean building a timeline that leaves room to breathe.
When the pressure falls away, what’s left is something real, lasting, and entirely yours!
City Hall Elopements in Minneapolis & St. Paul
For many couples, the day begins with a simple, meaningful ceremony at city hall.
Whether you’re drawn to the architectural presence of Minneapolis or the timeless feel of St. Paul, a courthouse ceremony offers a grounding, intentional way to begin your wedding day — before heading into whatever comes next.
From there, your celebration can take any shape: portraits around the city, a private dinner, or a full evening with your closest people.
If you're considering a Minneapolis or St Paul City Hall Wedding Ceremony, you can explore each option in more depth:
More Than Just a Ceremony
An elopement isn’t just a moment — it’s a full experience.
- It’s the walk between locations.
- The quiet before your vows.
- The way the day unfolds naturally, without being rushed or overproduced.
In the Twin Cities, everything is close enough to design a day with movement and meaning — combining architecture, nature, and celebration in a way that feels seamless.
- Start at city hall.
- Head to the conservatory.
- End the night with dinner, music, and the people who matter most.
Or do something entirely your own!
Minneapolis & St. Paul Elopement Photography
Your wedding deserves to be documented in a way that reflects how it actually felt — not just how it looked.
At Storyteller Co, we're a Queer wife and wife duo approaching Twin Cities elopements with a focus on honesty, movement, and connection — capturing the in-between moments as much as the big ones. The same way we wanted and had our own intimate, out of the box wedding memories captured — it involved a purple hair, Costco cakes and Kwik Trip donuts, a music photographer as our wedding photographer, a touring DJ as our music, oh and all barefoot at a Wisconsin brewery on the hottest day of the year! Ask us about it sometime ;)
Because when you strip a wedding down to what matters most, those are the moments you’ll want to remember. We'll make sure they last!
