Elopement officiant services for modern Arizona couples.

Is a big, fussy wedding not really your style?

Good news - it doesn’t have to be! These days, you no longer have to choose between stressing about seating charts and centerpieces or running down to the courthouse. Elopements and intimate weddings are all about creating something that truly represents you. Your wedding ceremony is a time to celebrate your relationship, the person you love, and the life you share together - authentically. You’ve always done things on your own terms, why should this day be any different?

Forget trends and traditions: Start your own.

Whether you’re dreaming of an Arizona elopement under a Superstition sunset or among the pines in Payson, Blackfern Events will create the perfect ceremony to help you make it official.

Are you ready? Let's get you married!
