Elope to Nantucket!

Nantucket is the perfect setting for any type of wedding, but Gordon McGregor's favorites to perform are the small elopements or sweet small group weddings with just close family and friends. Gordon, an ordained interfaith minister, says he loves it when people choose to have a small wedding allowing the couple to take the money they save to pursue something special as they move forward as a married couple.

With "Couples saying 'I don't' to expensive weddings" (USA Today, 8/5/09), wedding plans are being affected by the economy, whether from necessity or choice. A small, intimate wedding allows for mobility and creativity on Nantucket, and the weddings can be set everywhere from a beautiful sunset at Brant Point, Madaket or Great Point to the white bridge in 'Sconset, to a deck overlooking a magical Nantucket setting. Gordon calls this the "boutique wedding"; sweet, small, charming, and usually less nerves!

Big or small according to Gordon, the important thing to remember is your wedding is the beginning of your life together so make it something you want and that represents the couple's core beliefs. And remember to have FUN!
