There’s something truly magical about escaping the fuss of a big wedding and sharing your vows in an intimate, meaningful way. As one of Coffs Harbour’s most trusted marriage celebrant, I specialise in creating beautiful, personalised elopement ceremonies for couples who want to keep things simple, yet unforgettable.

The Coffs Coast is the perfect backdrop for your elopement, from the golden beaches and lush rainforests to the rolling hills and ocean views. Whether you dream of a barefoot ceremony by the sea, a secluded rainforest, or a private garden setting, I’ll help you find the perfect location to say “I do.”

Your day should be about what matters most, the two of you. That’s why my elopement packages are designed to take away the stress and keep the focus on your love story. I’ll guide you through all the legal requirements, craft a ceremony that reflects your personalities, and ensure every moment feels effortless and genuine.

If you’re ready to celebrate your love your way, let’s create an intimate elopement experience that’s personal, heartfelt, and completely yours.

  • Simon made us feel at ease from our first contact through to the conclusion of the ceremony. Simon’s confident, professional and positive approach made the preparation and ceremony a breeze! We sincerely thank him for his contribution to our wedding.

    Louise and Mark

  • Thank you for everything you did leading up to and during our ceremony.  Your friendly and confident approach made us feel very comfortable and at ease on the big day and you played a big part in that we just wanted to say thank you very much.

    Rohan and Simone

  • Hi Simon, we are on our honeymoon and remembering our wedding day. We cannot thank you enough for all that you did in making our ceremony special to us and the best everyone else has witnessed. Particularly our parents who doubted our decision for a civil celebrant – they loved every part of it! You exceeded our expectation and made us feel like we have known you all our lives. You calmed me and guided us all to make it a beautiful ceremony. Again, it was a great pleasure to have met you and shared the day with you.

    Dee and Adrian

  • Thank you so much for performing your duties so brilliantly on our wedding day.  You really were an integral part of things going so well and we can’t stress enough how at ease you made us feel in front of everybody.  You have received many compliments from our guests and will certainly be recommending you to all of our family and friends.  You really did help to make our special day as great as it was.

    Kath and Ross

  • We couldn’t have ask for a more intimate and loving ceremony. Simon’s kind words, readings and professionalism were greatly appreciated. All went to plan, better than we imagined! He was very helpful and considerate when it came to our request. Thank you once again Simon.

    Michael and Maria

  • After meeting Simon for the first time, we had no doubt in our minds that he was the celebrant for us. Simon was fantastic to work with and put our stressed minds at ease during our ceremony preparation. He was relaxed but well prepared and we found him to be available to answer any questions we had. He was able to keep everyone well entertained while the bride was unexpectedly delayed and our guests thoroughly enjoyed his humour. Not only did we think he was an excellent celebrant, we also received numerous compliments from our guest. If anyone is looking to hire Simon as their celebrant we cannot rate him highly enough. We only wish we could give him a 6th star. We cannot thank Simon enough for being a part of our special day.
