“Wedding planner Diane York is finding a niche with “elopements” for couples who want some sort of celebration without a big fuss. For a flat fee, she sees to a ceremony, flowers, a photographer and accommodations and even some guests, if requested. She said she can save couples money and stress.

“A generation ago, it wasn’t hard for couples to figure out where to get married. The ceremony and reception were typically held close to home.

Today, couples are increasingly opting for different settings — and Maine is increasingly fitting that bill.

Of the 21 weddings she handled last year, only three were for current Maine residents, she said.”
