Elopement

An Australian magazine and directory for couples eloping: how it works, what it costs, where you can legally do it, and the people who specialise in ceremonies for two.

Josh Withers smiling between a newly married couple holding hands at a coastal ceremony. Two testimonials say the ceremony felt comfortable, calm, happy and lovely, and that Josh helped make a stressful ceremony feel calm.
