Are you dreaming of a wedding that feels like it’s just the two of you, lost in the moment, without the pressures and stress of a big traditional ceremony? If so, you’re in the right place.
Hi, I’m Peggy Moyes, your Adelaide Elopement Celebrant and the heart behind Perfect Memories Celebrant. I’m here to help you create a day that is truly about love, intimacy, and celebrating your unique bond.
Why Consider Elopement Over a Traditional Wedding?
Did you know that the average cost of a traditional wedding in Australia is over $36,000? Yes, you read that right! According to a survey by Easy Weddings in 2022, the average cost of an Australian wedding has soared over the years, putting immense financial pressure on couples (Source: Easy Weddings).
And it’s not just about the money—large weddings often come with months (sometimes years) of planning, stress over guest lists, and managing everyone’s expectations.
It can sometimes feel like the actual meaning of a wedding gets lost in all the noise.
But what if there was a different way? A way that focuses solely on you, your partner, and your love story?
What is an Elopement?
An elopement is an intimate form of wedding. Basically, in an elopement, there will not be any unnecessary or excessive activity. If you want to marry your beloved in a personal way without the pressure of a big event, you can choose this option.
Like in the old days, elopement did not mean only running away. Nowadays, this is the way of a simple wedding. You can choose the location, the vows and how you want to plan your wedding day.
And the best part? It’s just about you two or perhaps a few close friends and family.
The trend towards elopement is growing rapidly. In fact, according to The Knot, nearly 20% of weddings in recent years have been intimate or elopement-style ceremonies (Source: The Knot).
Couples are realizing that it’s not about how many people attend or how grand the event is; it’s about the genuine connection and celebration of their love.
Real-Life Scenarios: Imagine This…
Imagine This: It’s a cool, crisp morning in the Adelaide Hills. You’re standing with your partner, hand in hand, on the edge of a vineyard. There is no crowd, no unnecessary events or activity, and no pressure of a lot of guests.
Above all, there is no such destruction; it’s just two of you sharing your vows as the sun rises and starting your beautiful journey together. Doesn’t that sound perfect?
Or you can choose a beachside elopement option to enjoy the endless sea and waves.
The sound of the ocean is the only music you need. You read your vows with sand between your toes, the wind in your hair, and the love of your life standing before you. This is what an elopement can offer—a day that feels like you.
