the elopement collective

The Elopement Collective is our squad of wedding industry leaders that create epic elopements from Australia around the world. Lead by us, the husband and wife team of Josh and Britt, and originally known as

elopement

We simply create elopements, not weddings.

We create intimate moments for you and your partner to become a married couple and you can get married with a handful of your closest family or we can be your witnesses.

We work with the best celebrants, photographers, videographers, and florists in the world. Many talented humans with a single vision for your elopement.

The EC experience

We believe in the power and the beauty of marriage and we believe that your marriage is a union to be celebrated, and celebrated in the most intimate and personal fashion.

Elopements are best in the few hours before sunset, generally on weekdays or outside of the peak wedding times

We help you in finding the right location, looking after your marriage paperwork, creating a fun and meaningful marriage ceremony with a celebrant, curating a photographer, maybe a videographer, and your blooms.

What’s the difference?

wedding

A wedding is a beautiful celebration of love and commitment between two people but those two people are hosting an event for their friends and family.

It’s about you, but not necessarily for you.

micro-wedding

A micro-wedding, and you’re not going to believe this, is a smaller wedding.

There’s an emphasis on intimacy but you’re still hosting an event - a wedding - for the guests invited.

elopement

An elopement is an intimate and delicate moment where two people get married, and there may be the smallest number of witnesses, but it’s not for them.

An elopement is for you.
