With local knowledge and a decade of experience in the wedding industry, Chiquita decided to create Hello Elope to tailor tiny weddings for those wanting to elope.

Elopement testimonials
Here's a little note from some recent (Hello) - elopers!
Pren and Jaede's elopement
My husband and I chose the Australian rainforest as the most romantic setting for our wedding. We were concerned that planning something that special all the way from the States would not only be a challenge, but would inevitably result in problems and issues we just couldn’t foresee, When we first contacted Chiquita, she assured us that she would make sure that this day was the most wonderful of our lives. And she did!
She worked diligently with us through the entire process and took over all the logistics and planning. It was way more than we could ever expect from a “celebrant”!!! She coordinated everything with the venue, found a fabulous cake decorator, a wonderful person to do makeup and hair, a florist who created a beautiful bridal bouquet and boutineer, and centerpiece and even helped with all the music. Most importantly, she worked very hard helping us craft just the PERFECT ceremony, all the way from each phase of the wedding ceremony, to writing vows that described exactly what we wanted to say to each other!! It turned out more magnificent than we could ever have hoped! And her part that day in conducting the ceremony was nothing short of magical!
We will always think of her with tears in our eyes for making that day the most beautiful and meaningful day of our lives. Chiquita, mere words cannot express our gratitude and gratefulness for all you did!
Kim and Kirsty's elopement
Choosing Chiquita to be our celebrant was just one of many fantastic decisions we made to make our elopement as special as it was.
It was very obvious from every detail of the ceremony that Chiquita put together, that she was a seasoned professional! Even listening to her voice on film and the tone that comes through is reflective of the professional that she is.
Although our elopement was particularly intimate as it consisted of just Kim and myself, Chiquita added to the intimacy of it further by her non intrusive demeanour and relaxed and friendly personality.
The ceremony Chiquita put together captured our love for one another beautifully and I can’t thank her enough for the memorable role she played in contributing to making our day as special as it was.
Thank you Chiquita from the bottom of our hearts. Cheers to you.
Kim and Kirsty Kent
Wedding venue: Mavis's Kitchen
Location: Uki, NSW
