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.

Married By Simon – celebrating happiness since 2008.

  • Jordan and I truely didn’t realise how lucky we had scored until the beginning of our ceremony. Simon had ourselves and our guests in tears from laughter and love. He was personal, deep and truely understood how we wanted our ceremony to feel. Our day started at 28 degrees and finished at 45 degrees, however, no matter how hot it became Simon was professional and knew how to make ourselves and our guests feel at ease. Our guests raved about Simon throughout the night and still to this day, we receive compliments on his behalf. He helped to create an atmosphere that will stay with us forever and we cannot thank Simon enough for this. We highly recommend Simon to be a part of your special day.

  • Hi Simon, Renee and I just wanted to shoot you a quick email to thank you for your amazing ceremony on Sunday. You were calm and professional throughout the whole process and we were extremely happy with the way you conducted our wedding. A special thank you for coming out on Saturday evening for a practice run through. That really helped to calm everyone and to let us all know what to expect. It was so cool to have the ceremony so personalised and your assistance and advice was greatly appreciated. Nearly all our guests commented on just how special the ceremony was and of course Renee and I are stoked with how it went. We couldn’t have dreamed the ceremony would go so well and without you it wouldn’t have! So thanks again Simon! We will definitely recommend you to any of our friends who need an awesome celebrant!
