Still coming down from cloud nine
Wow! Still coming down from cloud nine and the amazing day e-lope put on almost 2 weeks ago. Such an amazing and talented team, lovely people and made every minute of our day perfect from start to finish. Trusting a company and people you don’t know with literally everything for your big day can feel uneasy, but it’s a decision we are so happy we made, the team delivered on all fronts, and exceeded our expectations! I recommend to anyone thinking about it. This is the new and best way to tie the

WOW
When thinking of E-lope the only word that comes to mind is WOW as that was all I kept saying on our wedding day, from the venue to flowers to the team itself who went above and beyond to create our dream day from just a few pictures on our Pinterest board. My family and I cannot thank you enough for making our day magical and I would recommend to anyone considering a small Intermate day where the stress is taken from you and your just left to enjoy yourself.

The whole package is perfect
We can not recommend a wedding with the Elope team enough. From start of enquiries, to showing us around, to adding extras, to our big day. Sam and Tania were incredibly helpful and truly amazing in what they do. The whole package is perfect. The decorations were incredible, everything and more we imagined. The attention to detail was just outstanding. The cake, delicious inside and out. The photographer put us at ease straight away and the photos truly stunning.
