If you are not secure enough to get married in front of friends and family maybe that means you should not be getting married.
(Running away never seems to solve anything eventually you have to stop running and things catch up with you.)

If you have to "runaway" to get married, you might want to stop a moment and ask yourself why you desire to do that. Do you have family and friends in your area that would enjoy celebrating this event with you? If others are opposed to you getting married is it because you are young (under 21) or have not known the person you are considering marrying for at least one year? Why not schedule an appointment with a trusted person such as a pastor, mentor, or friend who isn't close to this situation and tell them your reasons and concerns? You may find that "running away" is usually not the best answer to life's situations.

No, it's not bad. It might look inappropriate by your family and friends. They would like to be involved in your marriage and happiness. If you are running away to get married because someone has refused to bless it, like your parents, then I would advice against it. Marriage is for a lifetime and you will remember a beautiful marriage ceremony better than a sneaky runaway elope affair. Talk it over with other people involved before you act irrationally.

Why do you want to "runaway" to get married? Is it to avoid someone or something? Actually eloping can be rather romantic but if you have family they might feel cheated if they cannot share one of the most important moments of your life with you.

Why are you running? There should be no reason to "run away and get married" unless you're running for a particular reason like, parents that don't approve. In that case, you still shouldn't run. Sometimes we need to reevaluate the situation and determine if we are making a positive decision. If you are very young, listen to your parents. It might seem like they don't know everything, but, they've been were you've been ... ask yourself: What am I running from and why would I run?

Getting married is all about you. If you want to elope and get married do it if it makes you happy.
I am currently scheduled to get married in August. I wish I would have eloped as my and my fiance have had to go through so much aggervation with our parents and guests. They all want something and we have to explain that it's our wedding not theirs. Its would have been a lot less work to elope.

It is ok to run away and get married if you have jobs and can support yourself, like afford rent on an apartment and food and everything you need to buy to live. If you have noplace to live after you are married what will you do?

I wouldn't say it is "bad". Maybe you should think of it as "going away" to get married sans family/friends. Obviously it would be cheaper! Whatever you do, good luck and have fun!!

Not necessarily. But it implies some sort of underlying problem that you might want to think through before you barge ahead.

It's not bad, sometimes it's better if your into your own privacy and not showing your emotions to everyone
