SCOUT & CELEBRATE
Destination Weddings & Elopements
Scout & Celebrate is for couples who want to elope for an overseas wedding somewhere extraordinary, and want their celebrant right there with them — anywhere in the world.
What is the Scout & Celebrate Package?
Scout & Celebrate is for couples who want to elope somewhere extraordinary — and want their celebrant right there with them.
I’ll travel anywhere in the world to officiate your elopement, holding space for the ceremony that actually matters to you, in the place that feels right. Alongside that, I’ll also conduct a short legal-only ceremony on Australian soil, so your marriage is legally recognised without compromising your overseas moment.
This package includes two distinct but connected ceremonies:
Your destination elopement ceremony, conducted overseas by me, exactly where and how you want it
A short legal-only ceremony in Australia, completed before or after travel to make your marriage legally recognised
The result: a destination elopement that feels intentional, personal, and unforgettable — with the legal side handled quietly and properly.

Me as your celebrant for your destination elopement, anywhere in the world
