Please scroll down to see our different wedding packages and pricing.
There are four (4) separate and different areas on the waterfront where your wedding can take place at Elope Up North, the eastside, the westside, the center, and the pier. There are endless ways to configure the eastside and westsides and they can accommodate 150 guests. The center is permanmently setup with benches and holds a maximum of 70 guests. The pier can hold up to 30 guests. No two wedding ceremonies are ever the same. The smaller your wedding the more options there are.
More couples want to get married on weekends than during the week, so weekday weddings are less expensive than weddings on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.
Wedding times and dates are reserved only after a non-refundable deposit has been received. I am sorry, but we cannot hold a date or time without a non-refundable deposit. All payments and deposits become non-refundable the moment they are received.

How do I hold a date and time for my wedding ceremony?
My friend, bookkeeper, and partner, Mr. Richard M. Selzum, won’t let us hold a wedding date and time for you without receiving a $200.00 non-refundable deposit.
If you are participating in “The Great Elope Up North Wedding Package then your payment is due in full at the time you make your reservation.
You can make your non-refundable deposit and payments with a credit or debt card on this website https://elopeupnorth.com/make-a-payment/
After you made your deposit, I will confirm all the details of your wedding by email.
If you prefer to send a check, that’s okay. Call me and tell me what date and time you want. I’ll have you mail the check to us along with some other information about contacting the two of you.
Fifty percent (50%) of the balance due is 90 days before your ceremony date. The balance is due 30 days before your wedding date. You can pay any amount at any time to reduce your balance. You must pay the balance 30 days before your ceremony date. If we do not receive the 90-day payment or the balance 30 days before your wedding date, we reserve the right to cancel your reservation and rebook another ceremony in its place. If you cancel your wedding for any reason or do not pay the remaining balances timely, all deposits and payments made to that point are non-refundable.
How much is the gratuity?
You get to be the judge, just like in a restaurant, whether you received poor, good, great, or excellent service, compared to what you were expecting and other wedding cermonies you have attended. Your gratuity should reflect your contentment and satisfaction with our service.
