DESTINATION WEDDINGS + Elopements

 E proporio amore

Dreaming of a lakeside ceremony in Lake Como, vows beneath Tuscan olive trees, or a Champagne-soaked celebration in the vineyards of Reims? In 2026, I’ll be based in Europe in July and August, offering personalised ceremonies for couples who want a wedding that’s as memorable as the setting.

A destination wedding or elopement ceremony is so much more than a picturesque landscape, it’s an entire experience!

This is an exclusive, one-season opportunity to work with a seasoned celebrant who specialises in heartfelt, beautifully crafted ceremonies in some of Europe’s most iconic wedding destinations; think Lake Como, Tuscany, Reims, Provence, Amalfi Coast, Santorini, Barcelona, Lisbon or somewhere the track is a little less beaten.

The Process


The best ceremonies happen when open collaboration sets the foundation for the day. As your marriage celebrant, my role is to get to know you both in the planning stages and ultimately pull together a once-in-a-lifetime ceremony that collectively captures your story, effortlessly engages guests and connects with warm authenticity. Here’s how we make that a sure thing.

  • If I sound like the celebrant for you, please complete the form below with your preferred ceremony date, time and some more background information. I’ll get back to you pronto with my availability and a quote.

  • Before you book me, we can chat over FaceTime, Skype, Zoom, phone or face-to-face to ask any pointy questions and arrive at a well-considered place you’re both happy with.

  • With the date locked in and a deposit paid, we next catch up to complete the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) together — that necessary government legal stuff. We’ll also use this time to creatively workshop a ceremony format that blows you and your guests away! I’ll start working on a custom ceremony from scratch, including your vows, if you’d like some help with those. Rest assured, I’m here for you every step of the way and will keep you updated with all the planning nitty-gritty for ongoing peace of mind.

  • We have lift-off! On the day of the ceremony, I’ll arrive early to familiarise myself with the venue and location, brief you and your party, meet the photographer and set up. Based on our thorough planning, I’ll then deliver your engaging ceremony highlighting the beautiful relationship culminating in today’s commitment. Now it's time for champagne!

  • Post-ceremony, I’ll lodge all the legal docs with BDM (Births, Deaths and Marriages) and guide you through applying for your Official Marriage Certificate. Note: this is only for those being legally married in Australia before or after the international ceremony.
