Jess and Vaughan chose an Elopement ceremony because they are off to the states to embarked on a new chapter of their lives.

They wanted nothing more than just the two of them, with the bride’s sister and partner as witnesses.  Intimate, no fuss, ‘quick ‘n’ simple’ (on request) but full of love and contentment.

They chose our ‘Simply Elope’ option which includes simply styling by @missweddings, ceremony and location photo’s by @romana and the marrying by @ketrina  .

Being crazy busy with their move overseas, the formal process worked for them too, so easy!!  Paperwork lodged remotely, ceremony planning by video call, and a last communication a couple of days before to ‘finalise the paperwork details’.  Tick!!  Following their chats, Ketrina put together a simple but heartfelt ceremony, a couple of tweaks later they had a ceremony that was ‘them’. 

Ok, so the weather wasn’t favourable, it rained.  But how cosy it was in the New Farm Rotunda and it felt like we had the whole park to ourselves.  And just look how creative the photo’s are.

Thank you Jess and Vaughan for inviting the team at @elopbrisbane to share in your day.  And what a pleasure it was to marry you both.  It was perfect.  And we always love a Toast to conclude the ceremony, allowing for more photo’s and a little celebration with your witnesses;

“Jessica & Vaughan.  Wishing you many more days as wonderful as this one, many more occasions for celebration, and a lifetime of love, laughter and a happy-ever-after!  Please raise your glasses to the Newly-Weds!! Congratulations!!”
