Get Married. No Fuss.
Celebrants & Photographers across Australia · From $400 · 7 Days a Week
You are not rich and your Grandma doesn't care where you get married. What she cares about is that you are happy and married to the right person. We will get you there — in 2 to 7 minutes, at any location you choose, for a fraction of what the Registry Office charges.
LGBTQ+ celebrated · All cultures welcome · Witnesses supplied · Australia-wide · From $400
Better Than the Registry Office — At Any Location You Choose
The Registry Office charges up to $732 for a Saturday ceremony in a government building, available Monday to Friday only, with limited dates and long waitlists. You get fluorescent lighting, a room full of strangers, and about 60 seconds with the celebrant before you are ushered back out.
With I Do Drive Thru, your celebrant comes to wherever you want to be — a beach, a park, your backyard, a café, a lookout, your living room couch. Any day of the week. From $400. Same legal outcome. Infinitely better experience.

Three Packages. Pick Yours.
Because more words don't make you any more married — we keep it simple. Three celebrant packages, three photography packages. Mix and match. We handle everything else.
Just you two — or bring up to 10 of your people. A registered celebrant meets you anywhere. 2 or 5 minute ceremony. Personal vows welcome. NOIM lodgement included. Witnesses supplied if needed.
See Details →Up to 25 guests. A more personalised ceremony with a bespoke introduction and music — walk down the aisle if you want to. 5 or 7 minutes. Everything in the Vegas Package plus extra personality.
See Details →Your whole crew. Up to 100 guests with a fully personalised 7 minute ceremony — elopement vibes, bigger crowd. Same price principle: the ceremony done properly, without the $50,000 price tag.

Our elopement photographers are the people who will make your family understand why you did it this way. 15 of the very best high-resolution images — colour corrected, retouched, and delivered digitally so you can share them the same day. Three photography packages starting from $400. Quality over quantity, every time.

We are one of the only truly Australia-wide elopement collectives. Local celebrant and photographer teams — real people who know their city, their secret spots, and their local council permit requirements. Travel fees only apply beyond 20km from capital city centres.
How Do You Want to Get Married?
Anywhere you can get to, we can marry you there. Here are the ways our couples do it most.
Just the two of you. We supply the witnesses. Best secret you will ever keep.
Salt air, sandy feet, waves as your soundtrack. We know the best spots.
Kitchen table, backyard, couch in your pyjamas. We have done all of them.
Windows down. Our original concept. A lookout, a drive-in, anywhere with a view.
With your kids, parents, dog. The most emotional ceremony we ever get to be part of.
Botanical gardens, national parks, your local reserve. Nature as your venue — free.
How It Works — Four Steps
Pick your celebrant package, decide whether you want a photographer, and tell us where you want to get married. Beach, park, backyard, café, rooftop, car — anywhere within 20km of your capital city at no extra travel cost. Book directly on the site and you are in the system.
After booking we send you your Notice of Intended Marriage form with full instructions on how to complete it. You fill it in and return it to us — we handle the lodgement with BDM on your behalf. Under Australian law this must be done at least one month before your ceremony date, so get this sorted first and everything else falls into place.
Before the big day you can jump on a Zoom with your celebrant — ask all your questions, get insider tips on locations, and talk through how the ceremony will run so there are zero surprises. On the day your celebrant meets you at your chosen location and marries you in 2 to 7 minutes. Personal vows, ring exchange, music — as much or as little personality as you want.
Your celebrant provides your marriage certificate to you on the day of the ceremony. Your marriage is then registered with BDM — it is official, it is legal, and it is recognised across Australia and internationally. Your photos are delivered digitally shortly after. The rest of the day — and the rest of your life — is entirely yours.
Love Always Wins — Every Kind of Love
We are huge advocates for marriage equality. We marry football fans and Gucci lovers. Backpackers and high-income earners. LGBTQ+ couples and straight couples. Vegans and people who eat Macca's for breakfast. Couples who have been together for 20 years and couples who met six months ago. People from every culture, religion, background, and political persuasion.
No judgements. Just two registered celebrants, a signed form, and a legal marriage. Always.
Just Need the Legals Done? 📋
No ceremony, no fuss. Our paperwork-only option is a registry office style legal signing — just the required words, the forms, and done. The most efficient way to become legally married in Australia. Ask us about this when you enquire.

Elope in the USA — Managed Entirely By Us
New York City. Las Vegas. Los Angeles. If you are dreaming of saying I do against the Manhattan skyline, in the Nevada desert, or on a Malibu beach — we can make it happen. Our US operation has been featured on Good Morning America, one of the most watched breakfast shows in America. We are not a random overseas operator. We are a legitimate, nationally recognised elopement service on both sides of the Pacific.
As an Australian company operating across the USA, we manage your entire US elopement from this end. No navigating a foreign country's marriage licence system alone. No wondering if your American officiant is legitimate. We have registered officiants and photographers across New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Virginia and New Jersey — all managed by the same team you are already talking to here in Australia.

Same legal outcome as a Registry Office ceremony — with a much better story to tell.
