NOOSA DAHHHLING

Ok so let’s be real, Noosa is well known to be pretty boujee with its upmarket shops, high-end restaurants and the well heeled crowd it draws all year round, but you know what?
It’s seriously beautiful.
And, if you are wanting a small ceremony then this has got to be my go-to spot in Noosa.

Think: Crashing waves on the rocks below, crowds far far away, a secluded little love-bubble high up on a deck with views that just ooze Mother Nature’s utter gaaawgeousness.
*Insert the divine voice over for that last paragraph for extra sumptuous love-feels*

Doing The Carter’s ceremony was just incredible, and this photo has gotta be one of my all time favourite action shots of me celebrant-ing.
I tip my hat to you Jodie 📷😍

It truly is the biggest honour to be a part of the Elopements Noosa team.
So, Wedsters, reach out to Alix if you are thinking this set up and spot loooks like your jam.

13/02/2025

“Some ten years ago, Madi and Matt headed out with their respective friends to the infamous Brewery on Annangrove Road for drinks and laughter and to let off some steam of a Thursday evening.  Matt in particular, was getting stuck into the drinks, as soon as one was consumed a replacement swiftly found its way into the strong grip of his hand, and he was living his best Matthew life.  As the night went on however, he spotted a beautiful girl across the room, she had the biggest, most gorgeous smile and he knew he just had to go and strike up a conversation.  The liquid courage was working its magic and so he approached her and the two began to talk as their friend groups joined as one.  

As Madi smiled that beautiful smile back at Matt, she thought to herself how confident and social he was, he had this nature about him that made people feel at ease and he was witty and quick in his humour.  The light eyes, blonde hair and tall and built combination definitely worked in his favour too.
As Matt chatted away with Madi, he was totally hooked on her- she was stunning with the most bubbly personality- her banter game was strong, and most of all she was being really nice to him when he openly admits upon reflection he was probably being tipsy and annoying!
..Without question, they knew they had found someone very special…  love cascaded into their lives, only a month later those three magic words were shared and they have held hands in love, as best friends and as partners ever since.”ayaspellizzon

LOVE LETTERS

“Katie, when you read this, know that you made us the happiest people in the world. Sana and I feel incredibly lucky to have found someone like you who took the time to truly get to know us. You’ve become a permanent part of our lives, and we can’t thank you enough.

Words fall short of capturing how special you made our day. The beautiful story you wove about us meant so much. The printed vows looked stunning, and your meticulous handling of all the ceremony logistics was just amazing. But the best part of your gift to us were the little moments you gave us between each segment. Those moments are the ones we’ll remember forever.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your constant communication over the past few months leading up to the event. You made us feel genuinely cared for. Please, keep doing exactly what you’re doing. Your celebrant happy energy, professionalism, and love mean the world to us and will undoubtedly do the same for all your future wedding clients.

Lots of love,

Jack and Sana McKevitt”

I teared up when I read this, thank you a million times over Mr and Mrs McKevitt.

THE FUTURE

It’s pretty amazing being involved in the next big chapter in peoples lives, setting the bar high as people take that extra leap into love and become a married couple.

Chloe and Kharn are that kind of couple who give you the feel-good vibes, who simply radiate good energy. This picture just makes your heart go to mush doesn’t it?!

I loved their day, it was the perfect celebration of love, romance, of sentimental moments, of the sun shining and of two people promising forever.

Forever awesome, please charge your glasses for Mr & Mrs Oats!

ENGLISH BANTER

When Lisa and Joe and I first connected it was like (celebrant) love at first sight. Or was that love at first words? Yep, they got me right in the feels when their glorious northern UK accents lit up our video call like a New Year’s Eve fireworks display.

These two Wedsters decided Bury, Manchester was no longer cutting the mustard and so flew out to Australia to start their lives again, and let’s just say they are an absolute force to be reckoned with.

The banter.
The joy.
The sweet sound of northern accents gracing the beaches of Noosa.

An elopement which was love in its purest form, the crowd, the top tier styling, blooms to make you go “wowsers” and the way Lisa looked in her gown… and the way Joe looked at her with nothing but the deepest adoration.
*fans face*

It was my first wedding of the year and it kicked off 2025 with champagne corks popping, waves crashing and people making memories to last a lifetime together. I could not be more honoured to have been the person who made their love official.

Family and friends, will you please raise your glasses and toast to Mr & Mrs Warren 🥂🧡

OH HEY WEDSTERS!

Just popping into your socials to say welcome to the second month of 2025, the month where everyone is poised and ready for the year ahead after all the festive and Australia Day shenanigans, the one where we celebrate Annual Love Day (Valentines Day!), and a big yiiiiew to all the recently engaged couples!

If you are setting sail in planning your wedding and locking in your key vendors, then strike while the iron is hot and let’s connect about that seriously fun part of your wedding day- the ceremony!

I’d love to talk things over and answer all of the questions- and you’ll find me at this Saturday from 10am-3pm as they hold a very special expo, showcasing some of the Sunny Coast’s finest industry folks.

Hope you can make it!

But of course, a massive cheers to the legends in this pic who said I Do last year in a romance filled day of beach frolics 🤍

MEMORIES

Throwback to a year ago when Abbey & Matt got married in the gorgeous grounds of and had a dreamy day to celebrate them finding their forever love.

The elegance, the styling, the cake, the champagne tower, THAT GOWN *swoons*

The look of love on Matt’s face when Abbey walked down the aisle, the setting as they said I Do on the lawn by the old wise trees, the way their people cheered as they walked back down that same aisle together as newlyweds.

Super mega gorgeous memories.
Super mega gorgeous couple.

SLIDE INTO MY DM’S

‘Tis the season to be engaged and to start planning a glorious wedding to celebrate the fact that:

a) you found your person
b) they are your best friend
c) life is better when you two stick together

Top tip- once you have decided on a date, lock in your vendors! There such a thing called “hot dates” in the wedding year- these are dates that book out FAST as they are usually in peak wedding season OR tag onto a long weekend. It makes it a lot harder to secure your dream team if you don’t plan ahead...

Sometimes we can fall prey to leaving things to the last minute, but it’s as simple as sliding on into my DM’s and we will get the ball rolling from there. Simples!

Let’s have a virtual (or a real life!) coffee and lock me in to give you a top tier ceremony- remember...

LOVE POTIONS

“The day started in many ways like any other, Sana got up and got ready for work and made her way to Ramsay Pharmacy Whites Hill and no doubt had another busy day ahead of her preparing medicine and working hard for her patients in the dispensary. She was passionate about their wellbeing, and took the role very seriously and just knew that this was the direction she wanted to take her life.
On this same day, Jack had been invited for an interview at the same pharmacy as an intern, he was still a student and arrived hopeful at the prospects of where this exciting career in medicine would take him. Amidst a sea of science, two people were about to be brought together…

Perhaps it was the fluorescent lighting, or the feel good vibes of the healing medicine, but family and friends there was chemistry in the air and it was not the pharmaceutical kind, no no, Sana had caught Jack’s eye the moment he first laid eyes on her and thought she was just… beautiful. There she was, a vision in her pharmacy uniform AKA the Ben Casey, oozing intelligence, and his jaw hit the floor quicker than he could say “wowzer”.

Lo and behold, that same chemistry had Sana all giddy too, as she overheard him saying he was here for an interview with that faux British accent, she went all wibbly and hid out the back, blushing as her colleague saw exactly what was going on an proceeded to tease her that Sana had a crush.”

Yep, you guessed it, it was the beginning of their forevers. I have the biggest soft spot for these two. Raise your glasses for the McKevitt’s.

A YEAR ON

Thinking of these two is like an instant shot of happiness! Audrey and Alex are the bomb- and one year on I will sing their praises one more time.

Why? Well, their love gives you the warm and fuzzies and their wedding had three excellent inclusions:
Audrey’s white Doc Martens, Kracken at the signing table, and Flower Bro’s.

What a day 🧡

Congratulations to you both 🥂

THE STORIES

Hands down my favourite thing in the whole wide world: LOVE.

All of it, the way it makes people feel, how it brings people together, and how it shows up in every day life for people the world over.

The togetherness of love in relationship, the big things people do, the little nuggets of affection, the lingering kisses, the thoughtfully bought favourite chocolate bars when you fill up at the servo, the secret code text messages that only you and your loved one know…

The silliness, the intimacy, the warmth in your tummy, the “hurry home babe” notification on your phone when you’re in your final hours of the workday, secretly checking your partner out as they do everyday tasks…

The romance, oh the romance. Folded up love notes, writing on steamed up bathroom mirrors, cheeky butt squeezes as you make dinner in the kitchen.

Rocking out to your favourite jam, making forever plans, curating a home together, building your lives in partnership, making family memories.

Planning an utterly kick ass wedding.
Celebrating the fact you *truly* found your person.

Then finding a celebrant who thoroughly cares about your day, about getting to know you two and telling your story with all she’s got. Laid back, kinda quirky, good energy English chick. A storyteller who gets right into it.

Wedsters, let me be your hype girl. Let’s connect. I would *love* to talk about how we can design together the most fabulous ceremony imaginable and deliver the exact vibe YOU TWO are chasing for your incredible day 🤍

The best text for breakfast,

“Hiya! Bestest celebrant in the world! You made Sana and I the happiest people in the world. We are so lucky to have found someone like yourself who took the time to get to know us. You are now a part of our lives forever and we can’t thank you enough.

Words can’t express how special you made our day

The beautiful story that you wove about sana and I meant so much. The printed vows looked amazing. The fact that you took care of all of the logistics of the ceremony on the day was just amazing. Finally, best best part of your gift to us were the little moments that you gave us between each segment. Those moments were truly the moments we will remember for ever. So we thank you from the bottom of our hearts

Even the constant communication that we had from you over the last few months on the lead up to the event made us feel really looked after.

So please please keep doing exactly what you’re doing. Don’t change a single thing with your celebrant happy energy, professionalism, and love for us and all your future wedding clients.

Lots of love , Jack and Sana”

THE EXTRAORDINARY LOVE

“Some four years ago, Phoebe and Dwayne were on respective nights out and met one another in the line outside Old Soul, poised and ready for a night of drinking and good times, but alas Cupid decided this wasn’t quite the right timing for them to really connect. 
No no, a week later the magical love-powers of Tinder were hard at work and when Phoebe and Dwayne were an instant match, Dwayne couldn’t help but wonder how he knew this stunning girl?  She was so familiar…. 
Dwayne knew he had to act fast and woo this beautiful woman so she didn’t slip through his fingers like sand, and whipped out one of his smoothest pick up lines he could think of and went for gold with this, “Matching with you is like ordering 6 chicken nuggets and receiving 7”. 
Despite Phoebe being a vegetarian at the time, she must have appreciated this incredibly romantic bite-size poultry analogy and so began the messaging.  The long and short of it is that eventually, the two teed up a date after laying down the law to one another that neither of them were looking for anything too serious.  
The plan, everyone, was to meet go for a quick walk of 30 minutes, Phoebe was so nervous she tried getting out of the car before turning off the engine… but those initial nerves gave way really quickly as that 30 minutes turned into an hour and a half as Dwayne must have fired 150 questions and managed to condense his entire life story into that time, basically explaining what Phoebe would be getting herself into if this was to go any further. 
They were both hooked, the conversations flowed easily effortlessly and they mutually felt the green flags- Dwayne since looks back on this knowing it was a moment of love at first sight”

Three cheers for Mr & Mrs Cavanagh!

THEY FOUND LOVE

“For Kharn, he remembers the day he first laid eyes on Chloe being the Gympie horse races when he was out with his friends and whilst he was there, decided to catch up with his mum and Brinlee. 

There was Chloe, in a white summer dress with glowing auburn hair and those beautiful blue eyes and the cutest little smile he had ever seen.  He was joking around with his mum and sister and he couldn’t help but notice that Chloe was laughing a little louder every time he made a joke- and he was pretty sure he wasn’t being that much of a comedian… 
Anyway, that day came and went and it wasn’t until some months later that with a few brief meetings in passing along the way that Chloe and Kharn finally connected when Brinlee, Chloe and a few other friends all stayed at Kharn’s on the Sunny Coast to hit up a festival. 

Afterwards, Chloe and Kharn started to text and they talked everyday.  Though Chloe was about to head off to Europe for a month, it didn’t stop the connection that they felt, because as soon as she returned they just couldn’t stay apart any longer.  They were drawn to one another, they were intrigued, and well, to put it simply, it just felt right.  There was something really special there and both of them felt it in their hearts that this was not something to let go of.

It is hard to pinpoint an exact time when they truly fell in love, as love came so naturally, so easily, it was meant to be from the very beginning.  Their lives just started to flow together, and perhaps the sweetest way to put it, is that by simply being with the other person, they felt - and they feel- like they were “home”.”

Throw your hands together as I introduce to the world once more, Mr & Mrs Oats!!

LOVE LETTERS

“I would give Katie all the stars Google has!
She has made everything 100 times better than we ever imagined. She puts in the effort to really know your story, making her feel like family on the big day. Katie went out of her way to make our day special, and we are very grateful for that.

I wish I could detail every little thing she took care of for us, but there are just too many. She never feels like a stranger; she’s super calm and reassuring, which we absolutely needed during the hectic process of preparing for a wedding. I can’t recommend her enough—she is an absolute find!”

The bestest words from Mr and Mrs Ibrahim following their elopement a few months ago. An emotional and beautiful day... with some top tier Egyptian hospitality :)
One for the memories, always.

PINCOTT LOVE

I love watching on as my couples live their lives post wedding day, the joys of instagram being a visual diary of how my gorgeous Wedsters’ journey unfolds as a married couple.

Clarissa and Sam are just freaking amazing. A match made from high up in the stars. We message just recently and Clarissa summed up Pincott life pretty well, “So much has changed in the last two years… and our relationship is still the same pure, simple love”.

Happy Secont Wedding Anniversary Mr & Mrs Pincott 🥰
