Byron Bay, Tweed & Gold Coast. Luxe Elopements are for couples who want to express their love intimately, styled and effortlessly.
To say Tiffany and Jordan’s wedding was a celebration is an understatement! This wedding was a PARTY! Joined by guests from their “gym crew” they were ready to have fun from the start. Changing up tradition, the first glimpse the guests had of the bridal party was the Flower-MAN instead of a flower girl – a hilarious new trend we hope.
Tiffany wore a beautiful, fitted dress with stunning lace details on the arms and train. The pink Peony in her bouquet are extremely rare and only in season in October and November our amazing vendor Seven Blooms Casuarina always finding ways to add those extra special touches!
The ceremony was fun and light-hearted reflecting the couple beautifully. The vows were so moving even our seasons Celebrant was evening crying!
Despite the weather warnings we ended up having perfect weather all day (on a side note, don’t use the iPhone weather as it is inaccurate for our region, you are best to check out the BOM radar on your wedding day).

What we love most about Byron Bay is that it is such a versatile location for an elopement. Not all of our couples want to have a beach wedding or get married in Byron Bay for that matter. Sarah and Ponsy eloped at Friday Hut Road Estate, owned by professional surfer Matt Wilkinson. Just 15 minutes from the beaches of Byron Bay, Friday Hut Road Estate is a stunning hinterland property, because this venue located just outside of Byron Bay it meant we could avoid some of the strict Byron council guidelines for outdoor weddings and have a more relaxed hinterland wedding. This luxurious venue has a beautiful natural archway which perfectly frames the natural timer arbour providing the perfect location for a ceremony.
A real family affair Sarah and Ponsy’s mums cooked all day at the accommodation to make dinner for the reception, while the kids swam in the pool. During the ceremony we live streamed with New Zealand so Ponsy’s family could be a part of the celebration.
Upgrading the Barfoot package to include hair and make for mum, Sarah’s sisters and some of the guests, as well as including videography. Being in the hinterland we captured some gorgeous portraits of Sarah and Ponsy in the dappled light through the trees down by a river located on the property as well as some fun shots in the rustic cabana by the pool which suited Sarah’s traditional bouquet of roses and greenery and stunning dress with lace details.

Locals to the Gold Coast area Lauri and Levi were looking for a simple Byron Bay elopement with just immediate family and their gorgeous little girl, Millie. The couple chose Signature Collection with styled ceremony package, and selected our newest property, Bramblewood on the Tweed Coast as the venue for their laidback wedding.
Located in the Tweed Valley this venue gives couples spectacular ocean views from Coolangatta all the way to Surfers Paradise! The rolling hills of this quintessential farm venue meant photography, done by yours truly, meant that we had quite the adventure getting photos and videography to capture the beautiful afternoon sun. Martin and I jumped in the back of Lauri and Levi’s car and we followed Bramblewood owner Daniel through cow paddocks and up to the top of the ridge for some epic sunset portraits.
Lauri and Levi’s first date was a picnic at Brunsweck Heads. Levi organised the date, but it turns out he didn’t really organise very much forgetting to bring a rug or any food or drinks. Instead getting fish and chips and sitting on the grass to eat. The images from their wedding pay homage to their first date. Sitting on a log in a grassy field imagining their lives together.
Congratulations Lauri and Levi!

Seeing everyone waiting for us at the ceremony
If you want a “no stress” day, definitely consider eloping
SJ was awesome and helped me every step of the way. She gave great advice on ceremony locations and places for dinner afterwards. Whenever I felt unsure of something, she calmed me down and talked me through it 🙂 Also all of the vendors were amazing! Thanks so much! Would definitely recommend for anyone eloping xx
