Hi, I’m morgan childs!
And I am passionate about small weddings. Why? Because they allowed me to work less, serve more couples, make more money and design an experience for my couples that was missing.
Now I get to teach other wedding pros how elopements and small wedding offerings can grow their businesses and transform their lives. The wedding industry is changing; more and more couples are choosing to elope and the small wedding market is going to continue to grow. Couples are ready for new offerings, and now that small weddings have hit the mainstream, there is no going back.
But, the best thing about the small wedding market is that it can mean more freedom, less stress and more growth for wedding pros — and that is what I really get excited about!
MY BACKGROUND
Morgan Childs has been called the Elopement Expert and named top wedding planner in Hawaii by both Destination I Do & Modern Luxury Magazine. With 17 years in the event industry, Morgan got her start working in one of the principal planning firms in New York City producing high profile events for A-list clients. After falling in love with wedding planning Morgan moved back to her home state in 2006 to open Moana Events (currently Moana Belle Events) bringing her distinct sense of style and knowledge of events to Hawaii. At Moana Events, Morgan has been honored to have planned celebrity and high-profile weddings and has been featured on television and in more than 20 national and international publications as well as over 200 online features.
In 2014 Morgan launched Modern Elopement, a luxury elopement experience for couples, after noticing a lack in the market for beautiful intimate wedding options. Along with the success of Modern Elopement, the brand has since expanded into an online membership and shop for couples planning small weddings. Now as a Wedding Industry Educator & Encourager, Morgan has launched her first course; The Elopement Formula and is helping wedding pros grow their businesses through elopements in her Elopement Wedding Pro community. In her spare time, Morgan can be found spontaneously re-decorating her home, at the beach with her dog Gracie, reading a good book or planning her next inspiration trip to Paris and Rome.
