Elopers&Co.

Intimate adventures & wild elopements.

What the heck is eloping, anyway?

Maybe when you hear the word “eloping” the first picture that comes to mind is getting married by Elvis in a Vegas chapel, or your grandparents tying the knot last minute on a super tight budget (read: less than what you paid for your last smartphone).

Don’t get me wrong — there's nothing wrong with either of those. And getting married by Elvis might actually be hilarious (*disclaimer* I will not dress like Elvis).

That just isn't the kind of elopement we're about, and we're guessing the same goes for you.

Our kind of elopements put 100% of the focus on the marriage, the moment and the love between two people. On getting rid of any distractions, being present in the moment, and savouring every detail.

Eloping isn’t for everyone…

...but for the right couple, it's the most freeing way to celebrate a marriage. A new adventure to kick off the most amazing journey.


Imagine:

  • Marrying your best friend on a stunning cliff overlooking shimmering blue water.

  • Or flying by helicopter over treetops to a private island.

  • Or exchanging vows in the open air with nothing but the sound of waves, wind, and your story (accompanied by maybe the occasional seagull).

It's all about finding that balance and creating an experience that is truly unique to you. And above all else, it's always about celebrating love.

“he made our Lion’s Head elopement a story that we will never stop reflecting on”

"The man, the myth, the legend... this is the officiant you've been looking for…he made our Tobermory elopement a story that we will never stop reflecting on. Thank you so much for making our day great!"

Hey - I’m Jeff!

I’ve been helping couples marry their best friends since 2015, but in 2019, a slightly outrageous idea popped into my head: I wonder if I could find a couple who would hop in a helicopter with me and a photographer to get married on a private island?

So I put out an invitation on Instagram to find a couple who wanted to elope somewhere awesome, and that’s when Sarah and Josh reached out. They were all in, so I hired a helicopter, called a friend (who happens to be an unreal photographer) to document it, and we all flew out there.

It turned out so much better than we could have ever expected. Check out a few photos.

When word got out about their adventure, more couples discovered they wanted to get married like this — they just didn’t know it was an option!

My friends brought the photo & video talent. I brought the stories. The rest is history.


Real Couples. Real Elopements.

We're here to create something amazing, something memorable and something you could look back on in 10, 15 or 20 years and say, "remember when we eloped? That was awesome, I'm so happy we did that!"

Check out a few photos from some of our recent elopements, maybe see some talented faces from our team that you're already familiar with, and let us know when you’re ready to pop the bubbly!

“thank you a hundred million times over”

"Your ceremony had us laughing, crying, and just feeling so much love for each other in the moment that it was truly magical.
Thank you a hundred million times over, you have given us a gift of the dream wedding that we will remember for the rest of our lives”

Leanne and Nate, Helicopter Elopement

    • Taylor Jackson

    • Lindsay Coulter

    • Timothy Muza

    • Alex Briere

    A minimum of 200 high resolution full colour digital images in an online gallery (with 20% also provided in black and white) to share, download, etc.

    10 Preview Images within 2 days of your elopement

    Full gallery delivered in 3-4 weeks in the same style and quality of the galleries you have seen from your chosen photographer

  • You’re definitely going to want to relive this over and over. What better way to share the experience with your family and friends than by showing them your elopement highlight film? Timothy Muza or Alex Briere are available to capture the magic.

    A 2-3 minute highlight film

    Delivered to you in 4-6 weeks

  • All the details, from beginning to married, will be planned and coordinated by us. You’re in good hands.

  • Maybe a private island, maybe a beach, maybe Georgian Bay, or maybe at a lookout point with a ridiculous view. We figure it out together, or you can just leave it in our hands to find somewhere amazing. Finding the perfect location is all part of the fun!

  • For the rest of your life

Is this for you?

  • Great question! I think a couple that wants to elope is mostly excited to marry their best friend in a really beautiful place. We want the entire focus to be on you two getting married, with some time to take it all in with a gorgeous setting.

  • If you decided you wanted to fly the chopper to the Rocky Mountains, or land it in Times Square, the price maaaay be affected. Of course we’d be all in to do that, but the cost would be just a bit more. We'll chat about all that when we connect!

  • I totally get it, having your closest humans there for such a big moment can be really important. There are some creative ways to incorporate them into your day, but these elopements are best experienced with just the two of you and our team.

  • I’m a licensed officiant in the province of Ontario and able to take care of not only setting the vibe for your day and ceremony, but making it legal, too.
