If you need a sign to run away and elope in the middle of nowhere, this is it.

These two made my desert elopement dreams come true!!! When you think Las Vegas, you may envision the neon lights, all things Elvis or the Little White Chapel — but your options are endless. Maybe you’re interested in something with a more clean and minimal aesthetic? Lets step out of the strip and spend your day in a more intimate way with the desert’s beauty as your backdrop!

Some of my favorite Las Vegas desert elopement spots include:

• Valley of Fire State Park
• Red Rock Canyon Overlook
• Desert Love at Cactus Joes
• Eldorado Canyon
• Dry Lake Bed

Some of my favorite Las Vegas chapels and wedding locations include:

• Chapel of the Flowers
• Caesars Palace
• Little White Chapel
• Viva Las Vegas
• Graceland Wedding Chapel
• Green Valley Ranch
