Kelly Clarkson Eloping: Celebrity Trend Alert

This week, Kelly Clarkson announced plans to elope with fiancé Brandon Blackstock, canceling their October wedding just one day after telling Ryan Seacrest wedding planning was “overwhelming” and that she’s “so over” it.

We wrote about her engagement here, and her lovely, trendsetting halo engagement ring. A wedding is such a personal choice in every way, we hope that Kelly and Brandon declare their love in a way that feels perfect for them!

Clarkson isn’t the only celebrity to choose privacy and intimacy over a lavish celebration.

Some of our favorite celebrities opted for elopements, like Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon, who eloped in a sunset ceremony at her Bahamian estate in April 2008.

Longtime loves Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos eloped in Las Vegas in 1996. Goop style maven Gwyneth Paltrow married Coldplay frontman Chris Martin in Santa Barbara, Calif., in December 2003. The surprise wedding didn’t include any family members.

And famously private couple Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart eloped in a surprise ceremony that included their son Liam, in Santa Fe in June of 2010.
So how do you feel about elopements? We think they can be exquisitely romantic, as long as you don’t cut corners on the ring!

Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon’s Disneyland Vow Renewal

Mariah’s the best. So talented, and she seems like a really fun mom to her twins, Monroe and Morocco.

Mariah celebrated Christmas again in February just because, so we weren’t surprised when she renewed her wedding vows at Disneyland.

And we love that she married her soul mate, a man who will dress up as a Disney Prince and marry her all over again. That’s real love.

Don’t settle for less, ladies!

What kind of sweet, corny things does your honey do for you?

We blogged about another celebrity vow renewal here.
