I say elope if:
you can't financially afford the wedding that everyone will pressure you into giving
your family doesn't want to go to the wedding, but wants to attend the reception
you take a few very important people with you that would make the experience exponentially more special
Don't elope:
when it'll deny both your parents (who love and support you) the sight of seeing their children getting married.
if you're big on rituals/traditions like dad walking you down the aisle (bridal showers, bachelorette parties, rehearsal dinners, post wedding brunch,
if you're parents would be absolutely crushed - like my dad would be if he didn't get to walk me down the aisle or my mom helping me get ready
