Elope With Us

 

Elope


An intimate gathering, a moment between two.
A story to be shared, the celebration of you.

We have been so privileged to join in on so many personal, joyful, and emotional weddings and elopements. From stories shared in quiet corners to high energy, fashion forward celebrations filled with grandeur. Every wedding day we capture is completely unique, because it’s shaped by the people at the heart of it.

When you elope with us, you’re tapping into 7 years of experience and an entire archive of ideas, insights, and inspiration to help you create a celebration that truly encapsulates who you are and the connection you share. We’ll help guide the vision or follow your lead — either way, our goal is to make sure your wedding day feels calm, considered, and deeply meaningful.

Whether you see yourself exchanging vows whilst hosting a 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 friends and family in the Hunter Valley Vineyards, 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 Newcastle - we would love to join you.

Loz has done so much more for me than just regular celebrant business, she was there as my hype woman/advice giver/co-ordinator/behind the scenes snapper, but best of all story teller. I have never heard a more beautiful wedding ceremony before! She had me laughing and crying all at once. It felt as though she was the third wheel in our relationship, a fly on the wall in our home - how she described us so picture perfectly in our truest forms still has me mind blown!

Bree and Shannon

Rhys - you made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and we hardly noticed you were there (in the best way possible of course). Both our ceremonies were so different and you nailed each of them in a way which captures us enjoying all the special moments which we will cherish forever.

  • Alex and Jye - Lake Como, 2025

    If you're thinking of eloping and have no idea where to start – Hungry Hearts Co are the answer! Loz and Rhys made not only our wedding day but the entire process an absolute dream. From our very first conversation, we felt completely at ease and knew we were in the best hands.

    We had Loz as our celebrant in Lake Como and Rhys as our photographer – the vibes were high, the content was incredible, and we genuinely couldn't speak more highly of them as both professionals and people.

    If you're looking for a celebrant, a photographer, or (even better) both – do yourself a favour and book these two legends. We'd have them as part of our special day in every lifetime.

  • Brittany and Billy - Positano, 2025

    I cannot even begin to put into words how special Loz and Rhys made our elopement in Positano! It was nothing short of a dream.

    Loz created the most beautiful ceremony, perfectly capturing us as a couple. She is the ULTIMATE hype gal and compliments are never too far away.

    Rhys, you captured our day perfectly. Our jaw was on the floor when we got our sneak peak photos back and can honestly say we love them ALL! Picking a favourite is impossible.

    Everything was perfect and we are so incredibly grateful. Thank you both so SO much. For your extreme talent, fun and calming energy, and for the ultimate vibes. You are both super humans and I would highly recommend you both a million times over xxx

  • Lilly and Dane - Amalfi, 2024

    I remember following hungry hearts when my partner and I got engaged a few years ago! Fast forward to the very start of 2024 we were tossing up options if we should elope or have a wedding and up they popped on their stories with one more spot for their Europe elopements! Oh my god it was the most divine timing (one could even call it fate) and the best decision we ever made!

    If you’re reading this it probably means you’re tossing up celebrant/ photographer options either for your wedding or if you’re like us your elopement and my advise to you is to stop looking and book them!!!!

    Loz and Rhys are so so talented in what they do they’re the perfect duo and made us feel so comfortable on both of our days we spent with them. Loz was constantly hyping us up, checking in with us as the day approached and gave us the confidence to write our vows with her how to vow guide. The words Loz wrote for our ceremony were unbelievable and she told our story in the most perfect and beautiful way that left us both speechless. It felt as if she had known us for years and knew our story personally.

    The pure talent of Rhys also left us blown away as he floats around so seamlessly. His laid back nature made our camera anxiety go away instantly! We are yet to receive all of our photos but the sneak peek we got is out of this world! Rhys captured the most perfect moments and the photos are so incredible, we couldn’t believe the attention to detail!

    Loz and Rhys truely made both our legal ceremony and Europe elopement an absolute dream and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to work with or spend our special day with they are the very best in the biz!!!

    Loz and Rhys thank you from the bottom of our hearts we bloody love yas xx

  • Taylaw and Michael - Positano, 2024

    We have been trying to find the words to express our gratitude for all you have done, not only professionally but also personally. The only way we can accurately describe how we feel is to put our hands on our cheeks and scream MAMA MIA!

    We received the sneak peak Positano photos last night and went through them together and the photos took us both straight back to that day. We are absolutely in love with them all.

    Rhys - you made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and we hardly noticed you were there (in the best way possible of course). Both our ceremonies were so different and you nailed each of them in a way which captures us enjoying all the special moments which we will cherish forever.

    Loz - from the love story you wrote, to the surprise letters you arranged from our parents, the BTS content, the “legals only” ceremony and the absolute VIBE that you are. You’re How to Vow made the whole process of writing our vows not once, but twice easy and stress free. The content within that guide is an absolute masterpiece!!!

    It is with 100% certainty that the best day of our lives in Positano would not have been possible without the two of you!

    If we could share some insight to anyone looking for the best it would simply be to book Hungry Hearts. You can take our word as we had the pleasure of them not once but twice for our legals only ceremony in Australia plus our vow ceremony in Italy. You aren’t just booking a celebrant and photographer, you are investing in the best day of your life, the way that Loz makes you feel during your ceremony and the way Rhys captures all the moments is absolutely priceless.

  • Tilly and Lachie - Amalfi, 2023

    There are no words to explain how SPECIAL Loz and Rhys made our day. My husband and I eloped, just the two of us in Amalfi. Unbelievably, these two ANGELS were happy to meet us in this place (which none of us had ever been), to capture our special day. We had no idea what we were doing, where we were going, what the day was even supposed to look like!! But having Loz and Rhys there felt like having our best mates along for the ride. Loz is an absolute vibe QUEEN and made our day that much better. She was like the bridesmaid I never had and absolutely nailed it. So helpful, kind and hyped us up massively. Rhys is incredibly talented with what has does behind that camera. Our photos are like something out of a magazine but you can completely see our personalities and relationship in them, it’s unbelievable. I couldn’t dream of a better team, we are SO grateful.

  • Bree and Shannon - Positano, 2023

    LOZZY & RHYS!!!! WHAT A TEAM

    We booked the Hungry Hearts team for our elopement in Europe in August, 2023.

    MY GOODNESS we could not have booked a better team. They came with a glowing recommendation, then with an Instagram stalk we knew these were OUR PEOPLE.

    Loz has done so much more for me than just regular celebrant business, she was there as my hype woman/advice giver/co-ordinator/behind the scenes snapper, but best of all story teller. I have never heard a more beautiful wedding ceremony before! She had me laughing and crying all at once. It felt as though she was the third wheel in our relationship, a fly on the wall in our home - how she described us so picture perfectly in our truest forms still has me mind blown! What an amazing human not only the best in the business at her job, she has the heart of gold to go with it! I could not of imagined my day being as great as it was without her. I have my most cherished memory of all time and I could not of picked a better human to bring it together. I could cry of gratitude when I think of how much Loz brought to our day.

    Rhys was our videographer for our Positano elopement and he was SO INSANELY amazing.

    Being in front of a camera (other than an iphone) is not something we have ever done before, so I was nervous of how my husband Shannon would go, as he’s a one and done kind of picture guy. It turns out he LOVED the camera and the camera loved him! Our team made the experience so much fun and so natural. The moments Rhys captured are so fun/so us/so perfect! We would give anything to relive our wedding day - but having that memory feels pretty bloody amazing (we've probably watched the video 1074729 times each day since we got it). The Super8 film feels so nostalgic and I can't believe I have that to cherish forever.

    Rhys worked SO SEAMLESSLY AND BEAUTIFULLY with our photographer Khara from House of Lucie - they brought such good vibes and EVEN MORE SPECTACULAR WORK.

    We had the honour of enjoying these phenomenal humans twice, as my best friend brought them on board for her wedding, where I was MOH. Being in front of the camera with Rhys again felt so natural and fun. It honestly felt as though we were all just hanging out!!! His work captures real moments, and he makes it look and feel all too easy. He captures perfect moments so effortlessly - how he does it, I don't know!!

    This is the team YOU NEED for your wedding day, they are incredible humans in every way possible & we know 10000 times over our elopement would not of been as amazing as it was without them. They go above and beyond and we are completely and utterly obsessed with them.

  • Lauren and Francis - Positano, 2023

    Loz and Rhys from Hungry Hearts Co are seriously the best in the business!! From the very first message, they oozed so much enthusiasm, kindness and knowledge. My husband and I eloped in Italy and Loz was literally like my step in bridesmaid. She was there to help me every step of the way and went above and beyond to ensure that our day was an encapsulation of us as a couple. Loz really took the time to get to know us and has such a way at making everyone feel like a million dollars! Rhys also captured our day and every emotion that came with it so perfectly, what a talented human! Not only does he know how to work a camera, but his easy going nature and positive energy made us feel so comfortable. Being an elopement, we didn’t have any loved ones there which was a bit nerve inducing, however having these two with us made us feel so at ease and felt like getting married in front of a couple of lifelong friends (even though we had just met). What an absolute power duo these two are, they are so incredibly talented at what they do, and their passion for their work and their couples really does beam through. If you are thinking about eloping, I cannot recommend Hungry Hearts Co more highly!

  • Hayley and Dean - Brisbane, 2024

    If you’re considering using Loz and Rhys for your wedding, this is your sign to lock them in right now!

    From the first conversation we had with them we knew we had found the perfect team. We initially planned to elope in Italy with Loz and Rhys however decided we couldn’t get married without our closest people there. When we reached out to Loz and Rhys to let them know our plans had changed they were so accomodating and nothing was a problem for them! We were so lucky to still be able to secure them to travel up to Brisbane and marry us.

    They both went above and beyond to make sure our day was everything we had imagined. All of our guests still thought we were eloping overseas and Loz and Rhys helped us pull off a surprise wedding, working seamlessly with our venue and other vendors to make sure the surprise was perfect.

    I still can’t believe how perfectly Loz told our story. It was like she was a fly on the wall in our relationship. She had us and all of our guests laughing and crying throughout the ceremony. We used Loz’s ‘how to vow’ guide and decided to do the switcheroo (HIGHLY RECOMMEND). It was a hit with our guests and perfect if you are not the traditional couple/nervous to say your vows in front of everyone like we were. We had so many guests talk about how good our ceremony and vows were!

    Rhys captured some BTS of our day on film and put together a reel for us which had us instantly in tears. Being a surprise wedding it was a day filled with so much emotion and he captured every part of it. We are forever grateful for what he was able to capture and how he put it together. Watching it back makes us feel like we are reliving the day all over again.

    We also got the opportunity to meet up again with Rhys and Loz along the Amalfi coast which was so special to us. We spent the afternoon snapping some pics in the ocean and drinking a few too many aperols. The pics that Rhys took were absolutely breath taking, we are obsessed with them and they will forever be a special memory for us.

    Loz and Rhys aren’t just wedding vendors. They are your biggest hype people, best mates and just all round incredible humans who go out of their way to make sure your day is absolutely magic. We adore them both and will be telling anyone getting married how much they need these legends a part of their day.

  • Sarah and Matthew - Newcastle, 2023

    We reached out to Loz and Rhys about 2 months before our planned wedding day, with some pretty vague details - we weren't even entirely sure about the exact date! What we were sure about was that this was who we wanted to marry us. We were so sold on Loz and Rhys' super fun vibe, beautiful images and the unbeatable pairing of celebrant and photographer in the one package.

    We didn't want a super long or formal ceremony. Basically, we wanted an elopement style ceremony that would be genuine and meaningful but over in less than 5 minutes - and with around 30 guests in attendance. Some vendors can be really restrictive with their elopement packages and have a no guests or limited guest number policy, but Loz and Rhys gave us exactly what we wanted.

    We opted for The Quick Hitch. We did the necessary legals plus some short vows which we wrote with help from Loz & Rhys' very own ‘How to Vow’ guide. The ceremony was perfect - short but sweet. We then spent the rest of the hour with Rhys taking some photos. In that one hour we got all the photos we need and they are STUNNING!!! Huge shout out to Loz for rushing off to do all the necessary legal filings immediately after the ceremony and helping us to get our marriage certificate within a week, too!!!

    The quick formalities left us plenty of time to get on with the party afterwards! We had so many people say to us that the ceremony was perfect and that more weddings should be like that.

    Highly, highly recommend!

  • Sarah and Cody - Newcastle, 2023

    Loz & Rhys we will forever be in awe of what you guys do and create together!

    Loz, you are so much fun, so easy to chat/organise with and just such a great hype girl to have!

    And Rhys, your photos are absolutely, insanely incredible and we cannot thank you enough! As soon as we saw your work we knew we had to have you capture our little hitch!

    We are so, so glad our evening was centred around you guys so that we could have the best keepsakes from the day.

    You two are the absolute best in the biz and we couldn’t have imagined our day without you guys!! Thank you a thousand times over! So much love - Sarah & Cody (and Polly) xxxx

  • Samara and Wyatt - Hunter Valley, 2024

    BOOK THEM. BOTH OF THEM. & QUICK!! (before they’re snapped up trust me you don’t wanna miss out on these two)

    You’ve got absolutely nothing to loose and oh so much to gain by having this divine duo as part of your wedding day.

    From the minute we enquired we knew we had struck vendor gold. We received the warmest welcome from Loz & Rhys which was followed by the most informative yet easy to digest information regarding recommendations, requirements and process timeline in the lead up to our day.

    Correspondence was so seamless and with reminders, check ins and additional resources like Loz’s “How to Vow Guide” (legendary) we felt prepared, supported and in the loop every step of the way.

    Loz is a whole damn vibe. A real life angel.

    Oozing with sincerity, love and passion.

    Not only did she do an amazing job of writing and telling our love story but she hyped us up, brought the excitement, the fun and took on lots of extra little bits and pieces to make our ceremony and post ceremony that bit smoother. Her smile & warm approach was everything that we needed to calm our nerves and make us comfortable so we could just enjoy the moments as they came. How lucky we are to have had her!

    And Rhys. Rhys has to be one of if not the coolest, calmest and most laid back legends we’ve ever met. His relaxed approach calmed our nerves and brought out the most authentic versions of us. For two people who can’t stand being in front of the camera we felt so at ease laughing, joking and chatting with Rhys like old friends. His eye for detail and creativity captured us in our venue exactly how we envisioned and more and we cannot thank him enough for the memories that we will forever be able to re live through his photographs.

    The most wonderful people individually and together as Hungry Hearts Co.

    From the bottom of our hearts, Thankyou.

Thinking of eloping with us in Euro Summer 2026?
Here’s an insight into what your wedding day could look like.

A Short Super8, by Hungry Hearts Co

Qs & As

  • Of course!

    We prioritise building a relationship with each of our couples. The truth is, we do our best work when you feel comfortable and completely at ease.

    We take the invite to your wedding day very seriously - it’s such an intimate and signifiant experience and we want you to feel as though you’re in the presence of friends. Because you will be!

    We aim to catch up either in person or over zoom a couple of times throughout the planning journey and the day before your elopement (when eloping overseas) when timing and location permits!

  • We’ll follow you across the world to celebrate your wedding day!

    Although, if you are eloping with us overseas, we will need to conduct the legal element of your ceremony in Australia. We can do this in Newcastle, NSW or we can deduct $250 off your package total and you can get married elsewhere, independently.

  • It really depends on what you plan to do on your wedding day and how much of that experience you would like documented. If you’re hiring a boat and/or a car, we suggest Collection Two, to ensure you have adequate time to capture all your adventures in detail!

  • Your ceremony will be roughly 15-20 minutes, including your vows!

    The heart of your ceremony is a story. One that’s centred around the life experiences and unique character traits of two people, shaped by different perspectives. It’s an ode to your connection - context to compliment to your vows.

    While your ceremony is relaxed and light-hearted in some moments, it’s sincere and deeply meaningful in others. I have a casual approach to storytelling but the overall experience is based on the push-pull of emotion, reminiscing on the one of a kind life you’ve build together.

  • The best guide for what to expect from your full gallery is roughly 100 images per hour of coverage.

  • We aren’t Wedding Planners by any means, although we have plenty of knowledge and inspiration to share, which will help guide you in curating your experience!

  • That is very much up to you, although we would recommend up to 40 guests.

    Please note: legally, you are required to have two witnesses present (18 or over) to watch your ceremony and sign your marriage documents.

  • We don’t, although we do have a selection of incredibly talented film makers that we can recommend. They are the best of the best and share the same candid, documentary approach as us!

  • Absolutely yes!

    Once you've locked in your date, we’ll share our Recommended Vendors List - a collection of creatives that we work with regularly and therefore trust to invest in your experience just as much as we will.

    If there are any specific recommendations you would like outside that list, we’re more than happy to help!
