Testimonial

“Karla and Felix made our elopement with PaperCity Photography very seamless. The civil ceremony was so elegant and intimate. We were able to invite 10 of our closest friends and family to attend our private vows. We loved the idea of turning the special event right into a photography session to capture memories with our friends and family; and then, privately, just ourselves. The picture quality was the cherry on top. Gorgeous, gorgeous pictures.”

FAQs

  • All elopement ceremonies are held in our natural-light studio inside a historic rustic mill in Springfield, MA. The space overlooks the Chicopee River, creating a cozy, romantic atmosphere.

  • This is a special day, and you’ll be photographed throughout the experience—so we always recommend dressing in a way that feels elevated and true to you. You don’t need to wear a suit or a formal gown (unless you want to!), but we encourage guests to avoid casual attire like jeans or t-shirts. Think of it as your chance to show up with intention: polished, comfortable, and photo-ready. If you need more specific recommendations, please reach out to us. We are happy to help.

  • Yes. It’s your responsibility to obtain a valid Massachusetts marriage license before the ceremony. We’ll give you helpful info on how to do that during your consultation.

  • We offer Elopement Package bookings on weekends, based on availability.
    You can check our calendar—up to 60 days in advance—by clicking any “Book The Elopement Package” button. Viewing availability doesn’t require any commitment.
