Boheme Collection - Most popular Elopement!
Our most popular is the Boheme Collection which includes a boho picnic with breakfast (sunrise) or charcuterie (sunset) grazing platters and cute heart elopement cake! Imagine having your ceremony during golden lighting, celebration with guests, toast, cake cutting, first dance with sparklers, Groom's get to *shake and spray* champagne (like the formula 1!); followed by celebrations with your boho picnic with a live musician entertaining you with ocean or hinterlands views! It's the perfect elopement package with all the vibes of a unique wedding celebration; intimate, breathtaking and the kids LOVE it!
SUNRISE
Luxe Elopements is known for our award winning SUNRISE elopement weddings! Our most popular is the Boheme Collection "The Lot" which includes a boho picnic with breakfast grazing platters - think ham and cheese croissants, yogurt granola bowls, fresh fruit and surprises for the kids. Imagine having your ceremony as the sun rises, newlywed portraits during golden lighting (the prettiest lighting of the day!) followed by celebrations with your boho picnic with a live musician entertaining you with ocean views!
Why we love sunrise?
- Private beach for an intimate elopement experience!
- The sun rises over the ocean for breathtaking golden light wedding photography
- Small children and babies are better in the mornings compared to trying to have a wedding during witching hour (especially during daylight savings in summer months when sunset isn't until 7-8pm NSW time!)
- Mild weather, not as hot or humid - better for brides hair, makeup and Grooms in suits!
- Unique wedding experience for you and guests that no one else has had!

FAQ
Can you provide Witnesses?
YES! You can invite guests who can be your witnesses. If you want a *couples only* elopement with no guests (or just the kids!) our team can be your witnesses!
Boheme Collection Picnic
Our Boheme Collection picnic is designed for couples and kids. It includes 4-6 x place settings, 1 x large share grazing platter and 1 x mini heart elopement cake. We will custom the styling and colours to match your wedding: green and white, pastel wildflowers, terracotta boho and everything in-between!
Golden Collection picnic
Our LUXE Boho Picnic is designed to be paired with our LUXE Signature Collection for up to 20 x guests. We need to book a Styling Hire Company with trucks to have enough table, seating and place settings for guests. This also includes mutiple shared grazing platters for all of your guests! You can choose between BOHO GROUND (low tables and cushions) OR TRADITIONAL (normal tables and chairs for people with mobility issues)
I want an arbour with florals with the barefoot collection?
We require a Styling Hire Company with trucks to transport arbours, chairs, tables and require a larger budget for a floral installation on the arbour. You will need to upgrade to our LUXE Signature Collection to cover the costs. You can have this package if you don't have guests - we swap the "guest chair" budget for extra decor items like draping on the arbour, lanterns and wind protected candles on the ground.
We want a weekend date?
Our packages are strictly Monday to Thursday wedding dates. We have negotiated midweek rates with no minimum spends with your vendors that are reflected in our packages. You compromise on a Monday to Thursday wedding date and you get high end vendors at a fraction of the price! We also find that public wedding locations like the beach are quieter midweek for an intimate experience - it's a win-win :)
We want more than 20 x guests?
Our packages have strict guest numbers as we have negotiated discounted rates with your vendors - less guests means less work and overheads. NO EXCEPTIONS.
We want to get married in less than 6 weeks?
We can *fast-track* your wedding within 6 weeks! The Australian Government requires a legal document lodged with our Celebrant at least 30 days before you can marry. Allow 2 weeks for you to book, complete documents and plan with our team.
Same-Sex Weddings
Yes, yes and yes! We will ask you about your personal style and customise the package ie: 2 x Brides - do you want 2 x bouquets and 2 x hair and makeup?
Fur Babies
YES! We love working with your fur babies :) We will guide you on the best dog friendly locations.
