Elopements

Your Private Wedding at The Gastonian

Our Elopement Package ($1,099)

The Gastonian provides an intimate and romantic elopement option in Savannah, one of the most romantic cities in America. To make your private wedding at The Gastonian as easy as possible, we've put together an all-inclusive Elopement Package. The entire event is coordinated for you, including the setting, the official, the floral arrangements, the cake, the toast, the accommodations, wedding-night turndown service and silver-tray breakfast service.

The Setting:
Choose our private garden courtyard or our elegant parlor as the background for your romantic wedding ceremony. The ceremony can be scheduled any time between noon and 2:30 in the afternoon, and on any day of the week that you prefer. The noon-2:30 ceremony time provides you with the most intimate and private time at the Inn, well after breakfast but before our afternoon tea.

The Floral Arrangements:
A simple, yet stunning bridal bouquet created with a dozen roses in the color of your choice for the Bride, and a coordinating boutonniere for the Groom.

The Cake:
A delightful, petite eight-inch wedding cake. Available in a traditional style, but also in the couple's choice of chocolate or red-velvet, with vanilla, chocolate or cream cheese frosting.

The Toast:
We'll pop the cork on a chilled bottle of Perrier-Jouet Champagne for your first toast together as husband and wife.

The Officiant:
Services of a Justice of the Peace or Pastor for your ceremony

The Accommodations:
Two nights in one of our most romantic rooms. Or, you may select our fabulous Honeymoon Suite, The Caracalla. The Caracalla Suite is recognized as one of the most romantic guest rooms in Savannah, and is a first choice for wedding nights, anniversaries and romantic celebrations. Call us with your elopement date, and we'll work to ensure the very best room for you!

The Turn-down Service:
The pampering continues with an extra-special, wedding-night, turn-down service. We'll soften the lights, gently straighten your suite and leave your linens covered in a "bed of roses." Chocolate-covered strawberries add a sweet ending to your perfect day.

The Breakfast:
Indulge a little more by selecting our delightful silver-tray breakfast service at The Gastonian. Or, if you prefer, we'll serve your made-to-order gourmet breakfasts in our dining room adjacent to the parlor.

To Make it Happen:

Please contact The Gastonian via email: concierge@gastonian.com or call us at 800.322.6603 to reserve the date and to discuss the details of your elopement. A few minutes on the phone with our concierge and we'll take all of the worry out of the details so you can simply enjoy the experience of a private Savannah wedding. Be assured we will be happy to assist with any additional arrangements and recommendations.

A few details to note:

While your elopement may truly be a "wedding for two," we understand you may want to invite another couple or a few friends to witness your ceremony. Please be mindful that our garden courtyard and our parlor are not spacious enough to warmly embrace a large crowd without some preparation, and that our Elopement Package is designed for private, personal ceremonies. If you would like to host a larger wedding party at The Gastonian, we invite you to visit our wedding page or ask our Staff for more details.
We do welcome your wedding photographer, and hope your ceremony at The Gastonian will become a favorite in their wedding portfolio. We invite your photographer to submit one of the best images for publication here on our website. Need a photographer? We'll be glad to assist with recommendations.
To obtain a marriage license, you will need to contact Chatham County Probate Court at 133 Montgomery Street. Phone: 912-652-7167
Carriage rides are a popular ending to an elopement day in Savannah. We'll be happy to help you arrange one, if you'd like.
