Finding the perfect place to elope doesn’t have to be hard.
Many couples choosing to elope in Wisconsin can have a great alternative to the bigger, and sometimes more stressful, traditional weddings. The Midwest is more than just flyover states. There’s something for everyone here.
Wisconsin sits adjacent to two Great Lakes, Lake Superior and Lake Michigan. Giving you two great options for a beachside wedding day. With forests, lakes, the Driftless Area, waterfalls, and rolling fields of gold, Wisconsin makes for a scenic place to get married no matter where you are in the state. Eloping in Wisconsin is just as beautiful as it sounds.
Where can you elope in Wisconsin? Some great outdoor places are:
Bayfield, WI
Charming city on Lake Superior, gateway to the Apostle Islands. You can even get a ferry tour of the islands. For an indoor option there’s The Old Rittenhouse Inn, a beautiful Victorian style home. Nearby is Madeline Island & Big Bay State Park, largest of the Apostle Islands on Lake Superior, accessible by ferry.
Kohler-Andre State Park
Beautiful park with sand dunes on the beach of Lake Michigan, as you face the lake to the East, it makes for a perfect for a sunrise ceremony.
Bookworm Gardens, Sheboygan
Filled with storybook themed gardens, making it a unique and beautiful place to get married at.
Rib Mountain State Park
Enjoy views from one of the highest points in the state. Just imagine being up there in the fall looking out at the colorful view.
Interstate Park
Being the oldest state park in WI, It has great sunsets overlooking beautiful river gorge. There’s lot of great opportunities for hiking, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, although it can be busy during the summer on weeknights and weekends. One of my favorite places where couples elope in Wisconsin.
Driftless Area
All the hills and valleys making this a more unique place in the Midwest to getting married in. With Wyalusing State Park gives amazing views of the river in the the Driftless Area.
The Enchanted Barn
The Enchanted Barn offers elopement and intimate wedding packages, making it a great choice year round. Located in Hillsdale, WI.
*When eloping during hunting season be mindful of where that’s permitted on the public land you’re getting married at.
