Hayley + David @ Hastings Point, Kingscliff
Congratulations Hayley + David!! 💖
Hayley has been following us for 3yrs! An engagement and a baby in-between she finally got her big day with Luxe Elopements – no pressure right 🤣🙈
Each wedding day is completely different because each couple is totally unique!
Every day is unique from our couples personalities, the styling, the vibe, the weather… it’s never the same… that’s what makes it so much fun!
In Hayley’s words:
Tell Us About Your Experience With Luxe Elopements?
“It was structured very well. It was full of fun and laughter. SJ and my celebrant Leisa and my Videographer Martin were an incredible team that did everything to make me feel comfortable, to ease my anxieties and to accommodate my needs. Nothing was too much trouble. But I will also say, that once SJ arrived, EVERYTHING felt suddenly so real and the nerves kicked in. It couldn’t have been helped and it’s just anxieties of a Bride minutes away from walking down the aisle.”

Ashlie + Alisha @ Cabarita, Same-Sex Wedding
MRS + MRS 😍
Ashlie + Alisha officially tied the knot with their 5 x little people as witnesses ✨ Well, our team was the “official” witnesses on the legals 🤣
Cabarita beach was recently voted number #1 beach in Australia! Secret little spot inbetween Byron Bay and the Gold Coast ☀️
We rolled up to a double rainbow 🌈 which reappeared just as Ash was saying her vows! Could it get anymore romantic!?

Tell Us About Your Experience With Luxe Elopements?
“What a great one it was… We can’t thank them enough! We were suppose to get married a few weeks ago, except we went in to lockdown…after an emotional day within 5 days we had a new date and SJ worked to rebook all our vendors and ensure we were all set again…it was effortless for us and she took out all the stress.
Jacqui the hair and make up lady was incredible. She smiled away and chatted with our 3 girls as she did their hair first, she was just so lovely and down to earth and our looks at the end were just stunning- we wish we never had to take the make up off.
SJ is lovely, she makes you feel super relaxed from the first second you meet her and it just makes the whole taking posed photos relaxed and enjoyable. She certainly knows her lighting and how to capture those perfect shots.
Leisa who we used as our celebrant…my gosh- her ceremony she wrote for us was just perfection, it had tears welling up in our eyes and tears of laughter too, she knew just the right length of ceremony to do to keep our little ones happy, the whole day was perfect thanks to this team they are just AMAZING!
We didn’t have to worry about a single thing! They did the timeline, organised our flowers, location, all of it, and it was how we pictured it perfectly.”
Thank YOU both for making our “jobs” so much fun 😍

Shlyie + Jeremy @ Lovers Rock, Tweed + The Pink Hotel, Coolangatta
The Day
Couple: Shylie + Jeremy
Accommodation: The Pink Hotel, Coolangatta
Ceremony: Lovers Rock, Tweed Heads (right on the border)
Number of guests: just their son and our team as witnesses!
Package: Barefoot Collection
Styling
Styling: Shylie wore a gunmetal grey (greenish) wedding dress by @alamourthelabel that perfectly complemented her personal style, tattoos and bouquet.
Jacket: Poppy does a range of illustrations for weddings: jackets, signage, live wedding painting and she can turn one of my images into a painting!
About the day
Rainbow at Lovers Rock 🌈
Shylie mentioned her Mother’s ashes were at Lovers Rock – it was a sign!
It poured rain all day which is SO unusual for May (typically May + Aug are the driest months of the year).
We were setup for Plan B – ceremony in their gorgeous room at The Pink Hotel, Coolangatta. White piano, velvet couches, neon lights and plenty of natural light – it was going to be equally breathtaking!
Like most rainy days it went out to sea, quick judgement call… yep… let’s jump in the cars and head to Lovers Rock!
We ended up with a rainbow and an hour of insane light for portraits!
Bright turquoise ocean against the black rocks…. golden sun drenched boardwalk…. pink clouds creating soft and flattering light…. a photographers dream!
Love story
“They were partnered up at mutual friend’s wedding party and she quickly adopted the attitude of having zero time for the sexy single party guy, but Jeremy was entranced by the beautiful Shylie and worked hard to show her that he was much more than that.
A perfect afternoon of drinking and watching the football at Shylie’s house (even though she hates football), confirmed what they had both began to suspect – they had found their forever person.
On Wednesday, we dodged the weather to get them hitched at Lovers Rock Park in Tweed Heads and it was perfection.”
