“Karla with Once Upon A Vow was absolutely amazing, responsive, supportive and truly helped us make our day as special as possible. We were under pressure and facing international travel deadlines due to Advance Parole, and within 5 days, we were able to setup a time for an intimate and beautiful, non-city hall elopement in Boston Commons. Due to the current political climate and the urgency to get immigration documents in before inauguration day 2025, they graciously offered to preform the service pro bono. This was a great relief as we still face heavy travel expenses and legal fees upon our return in order to complete the process of a marriage based petition for permeant residency. Dreamers and DACA recipients deserve better, but it is comforting knowing we are not fighting this alone. We hope when we can have our party and marriage celebration among family and friends next year, Karla can help us renew our vows and add another chapter to our love story. I 100% recommend reaching out and letting Karla help you create the day (or days) of your dreams!”
The beauty of Boston’s public parks is severely underrated in our professional opinion! There are so many hidden gems and iconic locations that are perfect for a Boston elopement or microwedding. In these two YouTube videos, we explore elopement locations in three of Boston’s public parks along the Emerald Necklace.
The Boston Public Garden and Boston Common are iconic for Bostonians and tourists alike; whereas, Franklin Park is still a well kept secret. For now!
Decide which location brings your wedding ceremony vision to life and consider accessibility needs for yourselves and loved ones.
