4 Important Extras For Your Dream Elopement (Organised By You)

  1. Celebrant: First things first, you’re going to need someone to make your union official. That’s where an awesome celebrant comes in. They’ll not only guide you through the legalities, but they’ll also help you create a personalised and heartfelt ceremony that truly reflects your love story. Plus, they’ll bring all the good vibes, making your big day feel even more special.
  2. Flowers: Let’s face it, nothing says romance quite like flowers. Adding a gorgeous floral arrangement to your wedding arbour will create a stunning backdrop for your ceremony and those all-important photos. Choose blooms that reflect your personality and style to make your elopement even more unique and memorable. Pro tip: Don’t forget a beautiful bouquet and boutonniere to complete the look!
  3. Pics (Photography): You’ll want to remember every magical moment of your elopement, so investing in an amazing photographer is an absolute must. They’ll capture all the love, laughter, and joy of your special day, giving you incredible memories to look back on for years to come. Trust us, you’ll be so grateful to have those stunning images to share with friends, family, and future generations.
  4. Food (Catering): A great meal brings people together, and there’s no better way to celebrate your love than sharing some delicious food with your closest friends and family. Whether you opt for a fancy sit-down dinner or a laid-back picnic, catering can elevate your elopement experience and create even more beautiful memories. Plus, who doesn’t love a good feast to toast your new life together?
