Elopement Las Vegas started when owner and award-winning, luxury wedding planner Emily Reno began to receive a lot of inquiries for intimate weddings in Las Vegas. The couples didn’t want a boring, cheesy Elvis Las Vegas chapel wedding. They were asking for unique venues off the strip and outside the traditional chapel. Of course, because they weren’t planning a full wedding, they didn’t have a huge budget. This sparked an idea with Emily!

Why not reach out to the amazing wedding venues she already had solid relationships with and find out when they have down time on their schedules, and fill those slots with quick and easy pop-up weddings and elopements? That's how Elopement Las Vegas was born!

I started out in this industry as a full service wedding planner about six years ago. Instead of telling you all of these amazing accolades about myself, I thought it would be better to tell you the WHY behind my business. When I got married I decided to keep things intimate and I got married in Mexico with about 45 close family and friends. We were in the middle of trying to buy a house and wanted to really do a kick ass honeymoon. We were just starting our life out together and did not have a ton of money to invest into a large wedding and certainly did not want to go into debt. It was a decision I 100% do not regret, but there were a few things on my wedding day I was not happy with and I never wanted anyone else to experience the same.

The entire planning process was so easy (and dare I say even fun?!) and flew by pretty much stress free. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Desert Elopements to my family and closest of friends - she made getting married an even better experience. Thank you!!
I found Emily after reaching out to multiple wedding planners during the beginning of the planning phase. We wanted an intimate wedding but didn’t want to miss out on any of the beautiful details you get from a big, full scale wedding, so I was searching for a good fit in a planner who could execute this as well as I had hoped. Fortunately for me, Emily was a great fit! She very quickly understood what I was looking for and set me up with a team of really amazing vendors who were perfect for our day and the style I had in mind. The entire planning process was so easy (and dare I say even fun?!) and flew by pretty much stress free. The day before our outdoor wedding, the weather called for a 70% chance of rain and I started freaking out a little. I emailed Emily with some questions, and she quickly responded - turns out she was already 2 steps ahead and had already talked to the venue and laid out a plan B. I was SO impressed by and appreciative of that (though luckily it didn’t rain after all!). I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Desert Elopements to my family and closest of friends - she made getting married an even better experience. Thank you!!

Two days before landing in Las Vegas, we found Emily. She was amazing. She organized our elopement in 48 hours, and it was exactly as we wanted it to be: a simple ceremony between us in a spectacular set in the Red Rock Canyon. It was a perfect wedding in every way!
We had planned to celebrate the wedding in Washington DC on January, but because of the government shutdown all civil wedding ceremonies were suspended. As our honeymoon started in Las Vegas anyway, we thought to just move our wedding there (it was supposed to be something very simple too). Two days before landing in Las Vegas, we found Emily. She was amazing. She organized our elopement in 48 hours, and it was exactly as we wanted it to be: a simple ceremony between us in a spectacular set in the Red Rock Canyon. Emily helped us with the officiant, a very professional one who made our ceremony warm and beautiful, and also with the photographer that took beautiful pictures of that moment. Also, the bouquet was gorgeous!! Loved that she was able to pull all these out in two days! It was a perfect wedding in every way!

I was more than impressed with EVERYTHING and so were our guests. We could not be happier with the outcome of working with them! There really is no better team to elope or get married with other than Desert Elopements Las Vegas! You will not be disappointed, but you will be blown away!
I had been waiting since before I got engaged to have a wedding with Emily and Desert Elopements Las Vegas! I always knew I wanted to run off to Vegas for the simplicity and fun and when I had discovered her Instagram page I KNEW I wanted to eventually have a wedding done by her and her team. I was confident that I could trust in the beauty of what her team brings to each wedding and that I knew I wouldn't have to stress that it wasn't going to be anything less than beautiful and picture perfect! From the time Emily and I first talked plans I could tell this was going to be so easy for me as the bride, I got to have the stress-free wedding of my dreams. Everything was perfect with her and her team and even the people she contracts out with. I was more than impressed with EVERYTHING and so were our guests. We could not be happier with the outcome of working with them! There really is no better team to elope or get married with other than Desert Elopements Las Vegas! You will not be disappointed, but you will be blown away! Thank you Emily and your team for exceeding expectations!!

Emily was amazing! We organised our elopement from over here in Australia. Emily was so great with e-mails, and would always get back to me with my thousand questions so promptly. Everything went so smooth and perfect. You will not find better, and we 100% recommend.

Everything went so smooth and perfect. The location was incredible! My bouquet was so perfect, I sent some inspo photos and she nailed it. Nothing was out of place. She has amazing attention to detail. A little daunting as we didn’t get to meet the vendors as you usually would when planning a wedding, however they were amazing! Our wedding photos are incredible and couldn’t have been happier! Our officiant was beautiful too. Emily/ desert elopements has very high standards and you can put your full trust in . You will not find better, and we 100% recommend.

After 10 years, my fiancé and I decided to get married in Las Vegas. Emily made everything easy and I didn’t have to worry about much! As someone who stresses out over the little things, this day went perfect. Highly recommended way to go!
After 10 years, my fiancé and I decided to get married in Las Vegas. Emily made everything easy and I didn’t have to worry about much! As someone who stresses out over the little things, this day went perfect. When we got to the location everything was explained to me very well, music was ready, the officiant made it seemed like she’d known us for years and the photographer was amazing (I’ve already gotten a small sneak peak after a few days). Highly recommended way to go!
