Even while we are able to pull off breathtaking elopements with as little as a month’s notice (which is the bare minimum necessary by the current Australian law for formal marriage paperwork), we recommend giving yourself at least three months, and preferably as long as nine months, to organise everything.

We will be able to organise everything in regard to your private elopement in the most efficient manner possible if we have this much lead time. If you are willing to have your elopement on any day of the week, we will be able to immediately begin making the necessary preparations.

We are aware that each and every pair has their own unique characteristics, and that one schedule may not work for another. If you are considering eloping, we ask that you get in touch with us as soon as humanly possible. In this way, we will be able to discuss your dream elopement and all of the specifics that will contribute to making it one-of-a-kind and memorable for the two of you.

If there is a certain day or location that you have your heart set on for your elopement and it is more than nine months away, we can talk about the possibility of reserving it.
