Hello
LOVEBIRDS!
Hello and welcome! We’re Mya + Hector, founders of Elope to Orlando LLC — a Florida-based team with decades of local experience.
Our story began in 2004 with a simple goal: make getting married easy. Mya officiated intimate seaside ceremonies while Hector documented each moment behind the lens. What started as a hands-on service has grown into a trusted, all-inclusive elopement experience, now supported by a carefully selected team of professionals across Florida.
Mya is also an award-winning portrait photographer and founder of a boudoir photography brand, Sexy Beautiful Me, recognized as the #1 Portrait Photographer in the Orlando area.
When you choose us, you’re working directly with experienced professionals who understand Florida venues, the marriage license process, and the real logistics of getting married here. We communicate directly with venues, manage the details, and guide your ceremony with over 20 years of hands-on experience.
Our services are designed for couples who want something meaningful without the complexity of a traditional wedding—just a beautifully coordinated elopement or an informal intimate wedding handled with care by an experienced team.
We’re honored to be part of your story and would love to help you get married—anywhere in Florida.

Mya
Elope to Orlando Owner
Back in 2004, when we first embarked on this journey, I, Mya, officiated all our ceremonies. And you know what? Every once in a while, I still step into that role, especially for ceremonies held outside the Orlando and Cocoa Beach areas.
There's something truly magical about officiating a wedding. It's not just about saying the words—it's about forging a special connection with each couple, one that often extends beyond the ceremony itself. Over the years, I've had the privilege of becoming long-time friends with couples I had the joy of marrying, witnessing their journey as their lives intertwine in beautiful ways.
I adore the opportunity to officiate ceremonies because it allows me to be a part of something truly extraordinary. It's not just about celebrating love; it's about creating memories that last a lifetime.
So, whether you're exchanging vows on the sandy shores of Cocoa Beach or in a charming venue in Orlando, know that I'm here to make your ceremony as heartfelt and unforgettable as your love story.
