* Played with in book 2 of ''[[The Hunger Games]]'', where {{spoiler|the characters ''claim'' to have eloped in advance of the big day, so that they can claim to have a baby on the way without, presumably, offending anyone's moral standards}}.
* [[Boston Legal]]: Shirley and {{spoiler|Carl}} end up doing this when her priest and his rabbi nearly come to blows about how the wedding will run. They have a rather nasty fight - and then Shirley walks in, apologises, tells him that the only truly important thing is that she's marrying him, and agrees enthusiastically when he suggests eloping. They end up having a double ceremony with {{spoiler|Alan and Denny}} in Nimmo Bay. Viewers [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|pulled out]] [[Tear Jerker|hankies]]. They don't elope, but their wedding is ''much'' quieter than originally planned, blending the two halves of this trope.
* An unusual variant occurs in ''[[The Time
* In [[Rocko's Modern Life]], when Filburt and Dr. Hutchison get married, they have a big, traditional wedding planned. But because their families (cats and turtles) don't get along, and because Dr. Hutchison's mother was too involved, the couple have a Drive-Thru wedding before appearing at the park where the ceremony was to be held.
* In ''[[Wild Rock]]'', Emba takes Yuuen away in the middle of their ceremony to make their own vows of eternity alone.
