The last resort for a couple that wants to avoid a troublesome Arranged Marriage or a Parental Marriage Veto. Run away and get married! Contrast Runaway Bride, although if the eloping occurs close enough to an Arranged Marriage, the two can overlap. Sister trope to My Own Private "I Do", where a couple about to be wed with fanfare runs off to get married quietly. Compare and contrast Shotgun Wedding, which takes place similarly on the fly, but almost always has one of the parties unwilling to go through with it. Sometimes overlaps with Fourth-Date Marriage, but this is not required, nor are all early-in-the-relationship marriages elopements. According to dictionaries, elopement does not necessarily require marriage. Two people loving each other and running away from those who might tear their relationship asunder also counts. The Inverted Trope, when people choose to divorce in a certain place because divorce laws are lax there, is Divorce in Reno. |

It also comes up again in the final bonus chapter when Haru has to beat her father in a golf game to earn his blessing for her marriage and he quietly mentions to Gramps that he's planning on giving it to her regardless of the outcome of the match because he knows she'd just elope again. | |

It's invoked and subverted in Toradora!, where Ryuuji and Taiga find themselves finally in love with each other, but in dire circumstances; Ryuuji has left behind his mother and the scarce resources he had; Taiga has practically disowned herself from her mother's family after her absentee dad (her monetary sustenance thus far) skipped town following the failure of his business. As such, they only have each other. They decide to wait out the few months left for Ryuuji to turn eighteen so that they can marry unimpeded while living in manga cafés and odd places. Their friends Minori, Ami and Kitamura decide to help them by providing them with food vouchers, money and a roof to sleep; however, in her dejection and after leaving him behind, Ryuuji's mother provides him with a means not to elope by telling him to go to her parents' home. They resort to use this resource, preventing the elopement. | |

Wearing the Cape: In Recursion, Hope marries Kitsune, the Japanese superspy who she has been dating, as part of a Memory Gambit, as the marriage should strengthen their magical connection and let her resist some Laser-Guided Amnesia. When her mother hears about this, she insists that it wasn't a real marriage because it wasn't in a church with her family. Hope and the family priest point out that it's hard to get more legitimate than having your marriage officiated by the Virgin Mary in Heaven. Or maybe she's just a nice super who thinks she's the Japanese version of the Virgin Mary, but either way Hope's mother insists that there's going to be a more public ceremony. | |

The second half of season two of Hannibal has the titular cannibal psychiatrist and his patient/frienemy/soulmate Will Graham planning on leaving their old lives behind together, complete with plans to go to Italy and to have their surrogate daughter, whose survival Hannibal had been keeping secret to surprise Will, join them. It doesn't work out according to plan since Will's loyalties were deeply conflicted. In season three, Hannibal and Will do escape together after viciously killing Dolerhyde together, admitting mutual romantic feelings while drenched in blood before Will throws them into the ocean. Although his true intentions (whether he wanted them to survive or not) aren't know because the show was cancelled in its prime, Word of God has confirmed that they did survive and would spend a hypothetical season four on the run as an Outlaw Couple. |

In the Trespasser DLC of Dragon Age: Inquisition, the player character can do this if she's a female Inquisitor who has romanced either Cullen or Sera. Her love interest will propose during their first conversation at the Exalted Council, and the wedding takes place literally moments later. The only ones in attendance are the happy couple, Mother Giselle and, in the case of marrying Cullen, his dog. | |

In The Lady's Not for Burning, Alizon is promised in an Arranged Marriage to the mayor's nephew. When she comes to the mayor's house to meet her husband-to-be, she meets Richard, the mayor's clerk, and they fall in love. They elope near the end of the play, since even if the respective parents could be persuaded to call off the arranged marriage, Alizon's parents would never accept Richard as a suitable prospect. | |

Meg and Michael of the Meg Langslow Mysteries met during a summer where Meg had to organize three weddings within weeks of each other, for her best friend, brother, and mother. She tells him that her prime requirement for a husband is now willingness to elope. Sure enough, when they finally marry, they have a huge housewarming party and then sneak off, leaving a goodbye message thanking everyone for coming to their reception. They never do tell anyone where they went for their honeymoon after, even the readers. | |

In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, you can find a journal at a campsite near an inn on the road to Markarth. The journal belonged to the daughter of the head of a rich mining family who fell in love with one of the workers in her father's mine. She noted her father would never approve of her relationship, not only because of the class difference, but because her lover was a Dark Elf. They decided to save up some money and run away together after meeting up at the campsite. Unfortunately, they were both killed by a saber cat at the campsite. If you come back to the campsite later, you'll find a Shrine of Dibella there with various tributes strewn around it. | |

Game of Thrones universe: Game of Thrones: Robb Stark marries Talissa in secret, because he was already engaged to one of Lord Frey's daughters in order to seal a political alliance, but Robb wanted to Marry for Love instead. This move cost him dearly. Later seasons confirm a long-standing fan theory that was almost as old as the books: that Robert's Rebellion was not sparked by Rhaegar Targaryen kidnapping Lyanna Stark, but instead by his elopement with her. Just like Lyanna's nephew Robb, this move cost them dearly; the anger of the families Rhaegar and Lyanna were betrothed or already married to sparked a bloody civil war, support for which was incited by rumors that Rhaegar kidnapped and raped Lyanna, that upended the Targaryen dynasty which was as old as the Seven Kingdoms themselves. Their child Aegon - better known as Jon Snow - was raised without knowledge of his true heritage for his own safety. House of the Dragon: Ser Criston Cole makes a proposition to Rhaenyra Targaryen, that is fleeing in Essos with her in order to leave their commitment behind (the Kingsguard for him since he broke his vow to it by having sex with her, and her heir to the Iron Throne role) and marry far from the court intrigues of Westeros. Rhaenyra refuses, and Criston doesn't take it well, making him an enemy of Rhaenyra in the long run. Laenor Velaryon and Qarl Correy pull off the "gay lovers" variant without marriage, Faking the Dead so they can have a new life of swords for hire far away from House Velaryon. It also makes Laenor's wife Rhaenyra (who was The Beard to him) free to marry her beloved uncle Daemon. |

Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade: This trope is the story of Lyndis' parentage. Her mother, Lady Madelyn, was the daughter of the Marquis of Caelin. Her father, Hassar, was the leader of the Lorca Tribe, one of the three tribes of Sacae, a group of nomadic people. In order to stay together, Madelyn left Caelin to live with her lover on the Sacaen plains. In the Japanese version, Guy and Priscilla's paired ending. Guy considered giving up on Priscilla, because of their different background, the former being a nomadic mercenary and the latter being a noblewoman. However, seeing her cry is too much for him and the two agree to elope. In the English version, this is completely removed because of a mistranslation. |

In Cardcaptor Sakura, Nadeshiko and Fujitaka did this, because Nadeshiko's parents did not approve of her relationship with Fujitaka at all. Partly because he was in his 20's and she was only a teenager (still in high school), and partly because he was a poor schoolteacher, while Nadeshiko's family was very wealthy. According to Sonomi, she was still in her Sailor Fuku when they married. | |

Niki and Marlene go to do this in Rush, in direct contrast to his rival James's very public and showy wedding that quickly ended in divorce. Niki regrets it, less because he's now married and more because now he has something to lose if he dies in a race. The very next race nearly kills him. | |

Tales of Wedding Rings: In the middle of Krystal's wedding to someone she's never met, her childhood friend Sato falls through a portal. Before anyone (including Sato) knows what is happening, Krystal puts the ring on Sato's finger and kisses him, sealing their marriage. It's only later that Sato learns that Krystal is the Princess of Light, and he is now the Ring King, expected to marry four other princesses so that he can use their power to fight the Abyssal Lord. The Water Princess, Saphir, does something similar. She approaches Sato in disguise, and once she confirms his identity she slips the Water Ring onto his finger and kisses him. She knew The Empire that has "benevolently" occupied her kingdom would try to interfere, so she needed to get it done as soon as possible. Furthermore, Saphir's twin sister Saphira was supposed to be the one who married the Ring King, but Saphira is in love with someone else, so Saphir stole the ring to do their duty herself. Speaking of Saphira, she is initially pissed at Marse, the man Krystal was supposed to marry, for not becoming the Ring King as they had decided. But with both of them freed from their responsibilities to the rings, they soon get married off-screen when no one is looking. |

Waltharius: Living as hostages at Attila's court, Walther and Hiltgunt are taken with each other but know that Attila will not allow them to marry or to leave (as he has already expressed his will to find a Hunnish wife for Walther). Walther reveals to Hiltgunt that he has long planned to flee back to Aquitaine, but has been delaying his plan because he wants her to come with him. After the next royal feast, while Attila and his nobles are sleeping, the lovers depart in the night and, after weeks of travelling in the wilderness, eventually make it to Aquitaine. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Uncle and niece Daemon and Rhaenyra Targaryen secretly got married without the approval of Viserys I, Daemon's brother and Rhaenyra's father. This caused a scandal, not because they were uncle and niece, but because it had been less than six months since their previous spouses (Laena and Laenor Velaryon, who were brother and sister) died. To prevent inflaming tensions, they set their wedding venue at Dragonstone, away from the watchful eyes of King's Landing. Lyonel Hightower's marriage to his stepmother, Samantha Tarly, was not considered legal since the High Septon, who viewed it as a form of incest, refused to bless it. As a result, their children were born bastard. Aegon V Targaryen betrothed his children Jaehaerys II and Shaera to Celia Tully and Luthor Tyrell, respectively, but they ended up falling for each other, and decided to marry in secret. By the time the news became public, they already consummated the marriage, forcing Aegon to accept it to prevent Shaera from being Defiled Forever. |

Game of Thrones: Robb Stark marries Talissa in secret, because he was already engaged to one of Lord Frey's daughters in order to seal a political alliance, but Robb wanted to Marry for Love instead. This move cost him dearly. Later seasons confirm a long-standing fan theory that was almost as old as the books: that Robert's Rebellion was not sparked by Rhaegar Targaryen kidnapping Lyanna Stark, but instead by his elopement with her. Just like Lyanna's nephew Robb, this move cost them dearly; the anger of the families Rhaegar and Lyanna were betrothed or already married to sparked a bloody civil war, support for which was incited by rumors that Rhaegar kidnapped and raped Lyanna, that upended the Targaryen dynasty which was as old as the Seven Kingdoms themselves. Their child Aegon - better known as Jon Snow - was raised without knowledge of his true heritage for his own safety. |

When the police come knocking on her door investigating several "mysterious" disappearances in London, she and Alton's ancestor run away to America, with a secret wedding ceremony along the way. Before too long, Mr. Brown also ends up disappearing under "mysterious circumstances." | |

Jenny and Luis do this almost by accident in Safe Havens, when they accidentally pull into a drive thru chapel in Las Vegas instead of a fast food joint. They didn't get it annulled since they did love each other, but were too embarrassed to tell their friends until Jenny ended up pregnant. It does show how much Jenny loves Luis though: the normally greedy Jenny gave up thousands in wedding presents to elope with him. Later, Rupert and Rosalind do this, mainly cause they still had student loans to pay off and didn't want to go further in debt to stage a fancy wedding. |

Good Omens (2019): Crowley wants to elope with Aziraphale, badly. He first proposes it in episode 3 of season one: Then in episode 4: In episode 5 Crowley drives to Aziraphale's bookshop to try to convince him, only to find that the bookshop's burnt down and Aziraphale is probably dead. Utterly heartbroken, Crowley abandons his plans to go to Alpha Centauri and instead gets spectacularly drunk. In season 2 Gabriel and Beelzebub surprisingly fall in love with each other and actually elope together. Crowley suggests Alpha Centauri for them, much to the surprise of Aziraphale, who only now starts to realise the true meaning behind Crowley's proposals in season one. At the end of season 2, during his extremely Anguished Declaration of Love, Crowley once again asks Aziraphale to run away with him. |

In Earth's Children, Tholie and her future husband Markeno met during a trade meeting between their two tribes and quickly fell in love. However, Tholie's family demanded a very high bride price for her hand, which the couple skirted around by having Markeno and his friends 'kidnap' Tholie...with her full knowledge and consent, of course. | |

House of the Dragon: Ser Criston Cole makes a proposition to Rhaenyra Targaryen, that is fleeing in Essos with her in order to leave their commitment behind (the Kingsguard for him since he broke his vow to it by having sex with her, and her heir to the Iron Throne role) and marry far from the court intrigues of Westeros. Rhaenyra refuses, and Criston doesn't take it well, making him an enemy of Rhaenyra in the long run. Laenor Velaryon and Qarl Correy pull off the "gay lovers" variant without marriage, Faking the Dead so they can have a new life of swords for hire far away from House Velaryon. It also makes Laenor's wife Rhaenyra (who was The Beard to him) free to marry her beloved uncle Daemon. |

Doctor Who: in "The Caretaker", Danny Pink accuses his girlfriend, Clara Oswald, of eloping with the Twelfth Doctor. She denies this, however in a later episode, "Last Christmas", her decision to return to travelling with the Doctor is framed in this fashion (by this point, Danny is no longer an issue), and in "Hell Bent", before she and the Doctor are forced to part, possibly forever, as forces gather to prevent their relationship from continuing, Clara invites the Doctor to "just fly away somewhere" with her. | |

One of the subplots of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door involves the daughter of a Pianta mafia don eloping with one of his underlings. The first time you meet, he agrees to secure you a ride to the place where the next Plot Coupon is if you bring them back. On finding them, they return of their own accord and he tells them to get lost but gives them his blessing in a roundabout way. They settle on a tropical island a few chapters later. In the next chapter you need a ride once again, so you return and find him sick (literally) with worry about them. One subquest later and you have your ticket, the couple and the Don reconcile and everyone's happy. | |
