Yes. Tailor your package via add-ons. If you don't see what you need, just ask the vendor directly.



Can we have a Joshua Tree National Park elopement with guests?

Yes, typically for groups of 2 to 30 guests. Some locations allow up to 100, but logistical and permit limits apply, so please check the specific package page for exact guest capacity.

Packages include a symbolic ceremony. An officiant is often available as an add-on; if not listed, simply ask the vendor—they are happy to help.



What should we wear for our Joshua Tree National Park elopement?

Wear light, breathable fabrics for the heat, but bring a heavy jacket for sunset or winter dates. Sturdy boots are essential for walking on sand and climbing rock formations.



How long does a Joshua Tree National Park elopement typically last?

Typically 4 to 8 hours. This covers getting ready at an Airbnb, travel to the park, the ceremony, and multiple portrait sessions at different rock formations.



Can we have an elopement in Joshua Tree National Park at sunrise or sunset?

Yes, highly recommended. Golden hour provides the best desert light, and blue hour/nighttime is perfect for the park's famous stargazing.
