Florida is a beautiful state and a gorgeous place to get married. And with more couples than ever choosing to elope, it ranks pretty high on the list of places to tie the knot. Get inspired to elope in Florida and at Mill Pond Estate when you read up on 5 perks of saying "I Do" in the Sunshine State!
1. The Weather
Beautiful weather is the top reason to elope in Florida. We experience sunshine year-round. Expect more humid conditions and rain during summer. But as they say, rain on your wedding day is lucky! While you’re welcome to plan your day at any point during the year, the weather is at its peak in spring and fall. The summer season can be humid and it tends to rain. But as they say, rain on your wedding day is lucky!
