Elope
An intimate gathering - a tale of two - a story to be shared - the celebration of you.
Whether you see yourself exchanging vows whilst hosting your very own sun-soaked soirée / Sailing across the Amalfi Coast / Perched on a cliff edge in Greece / Roaming around a castle in the South of France / Wining and dining your favourite folks at a garden party in the Hunter Valley Vineyards / Drinking champagne as you shuck fresh oysters in Tasmania / Relaxing on a rooftop in Melbourne / Watching as the Sydney Opera House fades into the background during a Harbour Cruise / Enjoying a meal at one of Byron Bay’s most iconic restaurants or devouring the world’s best margarita at your favourite bar in Newy - we want to be there.
We’ve been a part of so many special moments - big and small - in public and in private - all completely personal and brilliantly unique! We’ve told so many stories, celebrated so many connections, and contributed to so much FUN! When you book an elopement with us, you’re unlocking the culmination of everything we’ve learned and everything we’ve experienced, to date. We can give you unlimited ideas and inspiration to personalise each element of your wedding day, or you can take the lead and we’ll bend over backwards to make sure all your dreams come true. We’re here for curating and magnifying the vibe. Your vibe.

Qs & As

Here’s a fun fact you never asked for!
Legally, you are required to have two witnesses present to watch your wedding ceremony (start to finish, front to back) and sign your marriage documents. Those two folks need to be 18 or over and y’know, pay attention.
In saying that, for this package in particular, you can have anywhere between 2 and around 30 guests.
FUN!

Goodness gracious, where CAN’T you elope?
Depending on what you’re into and where you’d like to go, we’ve got lots of suggestions and recommendations up our socks.
We'll go anywhere to adventure with you!
-
Absolutely, yes, a trillion percent.
Nothing would bring us more joy!
We’ve got lots of great ideas and we can’t wait to share them all!
-
The best guide for what to expect in your gallery is roughly 100 photos per hour of shooting. Sometimes there’s a little more!

Wild Ones: Usually 15-20 minutes, but can be longer or shorter on request! This is a completely unique story, written from scratch. It’s light hearted, honest and sincere but equally hilarious. All my words are based on the true tales you share with me and sprinkled with (read: smothered in) plenty of exaggeration for entertainment value. There’s no fluff or filler, it’s good stuff only!
Quick Hitch: This is the equivalent to a registry wedding. It’s really just bare basics - the legal components! There’s no personalisation, so in total, this is roughly 1 minute talking time for me. HOWEVER, i’m more than happy to weave in a ring exchange/the ‘I do’s’ and help you write some personal vows, which can extend the ceremony to about 2-5 minutes.

Only if you use the magic word.

Indeed you will! A few brews and some quality banter is the perfect mix to get you nice and comfortable with us before the big/small/medium day.
We want you to feel relaxed, confident and free to be the most authentic version of yourselves.
If for any reason the timing doesn’t work out or a pre-wedding meeting is logistically impossible, we can chat over the phone or do a zoom. Easy! :)

Please, we beg!
