# About the EC

We’re so glad you’re here.

![The Withers family - your EC peeps - in Paris](https://elopementcollective.com/_astro/9b6230ece48ad2a9-Withers-7.RcuQBlo3_Z1NFdo6.webp)

We are Britt and Josh Withers, the two humans behind The Elopement Collective.

Britt’s the boss, she’s the brains, and the person who makes it all happen, and Josh is your celebrant and the guy leading the day of your elopement.

Parents to Luna & Goldie, we split our time between Hobart + South East Queensland, traveling globally to create elopements with an incredible team of photographers, filmmakers, and florists.

## we create

We feel so honoured to be able to do what we do – and we really believe that the day you enter into marriage should be a fun, relaxed and stress-free one.

The Elopement Collective was created and inspired by what we wanted for our wedding, but there was nothing like it. We are a collective of wedding talent who have come together to create these awesome elopement events in different cities both in Australia & overseas.

-   You can elope in a month, Australia law requires one month notice, and we take bookings up to nine months in advance
    
-   Our team are some of the world’s best wedding creators, so on the weekend they’re creating weddings, so you can elope Monday through Thursday, sometimes on a Friday or Sunday depending on availability.
    
-   We prefer to call them witnesses because a wedding has guests, but whatever you call them, we value a small handful of your nearest and dearest witnessing your elopement ceremony
    
-   Get in touch with a rough idea of a location and when you’d like to elope and we’ll put a package together for you
