“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.

‘They may end up with a wedding of 30 guests rather than 130,” she said.’”

Your Money: Get Married Without Breaking the Bank

“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.

“I’m finding the destination market is definitely growing,” said Diane York, a wedding planner in Portland.

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

“Thank you Diane, from the bottom of my heart. You were the one who kept me sane, you were the most comforting person I’ve ever met. Every time I called you on the verge of tears, you left me laughing; I don’t know how you did it but you did. Thank you again for all the extras you did when you didn’t have to, you truly made my day.”

Great success to you,
Love,

“Hello Diane,

Thank you so much for all your help…it was a perfect day, besides the 100 degrees weather! I appreciate the guidance you gave me coordinating the ceremony, especially the seating in the pews. What we appreciate most is that you arranged for our dog Sadie to walk down the aisle. It meant so much to us to have her there on our special day, and we are so happy that you recognized that.”

Thanks again,

Karen and Chris R.
