There’s nothing quite as stunning as a goddess wedding dress on an elopement day. Something about the billowing fabric, delicate details, and whimsical feel makes these types of gowns absolutely perfect for adventurous elopements.
As an elopement photographer, I’ve seen my fair share of elopement dresses, and without fail, the ones that always stand out to me are the ones with a greek goddess-like vibe. So I’ve scoured the web to find the most beautiful goddess wedding dresses out there, and I’m sharing the details below!

When searching for the perfect goddess wedding dress, you’ll want to look for a gown that is comfortable and easy to move around in.
This is particularly true is you’re doing any heavy adventuring on your elopement day. Look for lightweight fabrics and dress skirts that don’t constrict movement.
The goddess wedding dresses I’ve recommended in this article range from under $100 to over $2000. What you spend on yours is completely up to you, wedding rules be damned.
Yes, you can certainly get a beautiful dress on a budget, but just keep in mind that higher price tags are usually indicative of higher quality fabrics, so think about how much that matters to you on your elopement day.
So let’s jump right into these goddess wedding dresses. I’ll share my personal favorites and what I love about them. I’ll also include links to each so you can snag your dream elopement dress.

When it comes to goddess wedding dresses, my hands-down favorite dress material is chiffon. It blows so beautifully in the wind, which is perfect for adventure elopements.
Whether you’re eloping on an oceanside cliff on the California coast or the top of a mountain in the Rockies, chiffon will look epic. The blush rose color of this dress will look stunning during sunrise or sunset, too.

This handmade silk and lace goddess wedding dress is a literal work of art, and hands-down one of my favorite gowns on this list for adventure elopements.

This lovely dress is like a blend between an art deco style and a goddess style, and I am fully in love with it. Again, chiffon fabric is one of the best materials for elopement dresses, and that’s what this one is.
The pinched waistline is super flattering, and the loose skirt allows for maximum adventuring. And can we talk about that price? What a steal for this goddess-like gown.

If being ultra-comfortable in your dress is important, this tasseled tie-strap ankle-length elopement dress is the one.
It has a billowy-loose fabric on the skirt, which makes it easy to walk and hike in, and the tassel accents add that cute factor.

Honestly, this goddess wedding dress is the one that inspired the writing of this article. I’ve been a long-time admirer of this gown. It’s whimsical, romantic, and honestly unlike anything else I’ve ever seen.
I’m not always a fan of high-neck dresses, because it tends to look like there’s too much fabric and not enough human, but this one balances that look so perfectly. The cinched waistline helps a lot with that, too.

I love how timeless this long-sleeved chiffon goddess gown is. One of the perks of eloping in nature is that your wedding decor is always timeless because nature never goes out of style. And neither will this dress.
It’s lightweight, easy to move around in, and it has a lovely satin belt. You may need to get a slip to go along with it, as the entire dress is quite sheer, but that’s totally your call!
