Elopement Weddings Adelaide – Simple, Personal & Meaningful

Not every couple wants a big wedding, and that’s perfectly fine!

Whether it’s just the two of you with your witnesses or a small gathering of your favourite people, I’ll help you create an elopement ceremony that’s relaxed, personal and legally recognised.

From beachside weddings and garden ceremonies to wineries and private homes across Adelaide and South Australia, we’ll make it official without the fuss.

Your wedding. Your way. No unnecessary complications.

Me and my now husband just got married on Saturday the 19th, not only was John and his team (Maddie) really helpful through our wedding planning process but they absolutely exceeded our expectations on our wedding day. We hired John to be our celebrant, DJ and MC and boy was he good, all our guests raved about how they want John to be apart of their special events and most of them affectionally called him the “triple threat”.

We also hired Maddie who assisted us with coordinating our day, and she was amazing on the day too, we both were catered to and Maddie always ensured we had a drink in our hand. I will be telling everyone and anyone to hire John and his team they are all so amazing and really helped us to have the best day possible!!

What Is an Elopement Wedding?

An elopement is a small, intimate wedding, often with just the couple, two witnesses and their celebrant.

You can keep things simple with the legal vows or add personal vows, rings, music and a few special touches.

Unlike a micro wedding, which generally includes a small gathering of family and friends, an elopement is usually a more private occasion.

There’s no right or wrong way to celebrate. It’s about choosing what suits you.

Legal Requirements for Elopements in Australia

An elopement has the same legal requirements as any other Australian wedding.

You’ll need to lodge a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) at least one month before your ceremony, unless an authorised shortening of time is granted.

You’ll also need appropriate identification, two witnesses aged 18 or over, an authorised marriage celebrant and the required legal vows and declarations.

I’ll guide you through the paperwork and register your marriage following the ceremony.
