I am glad that there are people in this world that believe in the commitment of marrage (not that I'm bashing people for getting devorced, as I know that there are legitimate reasons for splitting up). I've noticed that people who elope generally have better relationships, as they have already endured a lot just to be married (Not always the truth, I'll admit). My parents eloped and they are still very happily together 25 years later . I eloped with John, and I have a very strong feeling that we will grow old together too.

Thank you for posting this, David. It is an inspiration to me in my married life
