Our story

Claire Newall, the founder of Elope to Sydney own elopement experience with her husband in Queensland served as the catalyst for her entrepreneurial journey. While their special day was memorable, Claire couldn't help but feel that it lacked personalization and uniqueness.

Driven by the desire to create something exceptional, Claire embarked on a mission to establish a business that would provide couples with the opportunity to have a wonderful and stylish elopement.

Having spent several years working as a photographer and events manager, Claire had witnessed firsthand how the essence of a wedding could often become overshadowed in the grandeur of a large-scale event. This realization only reinforced her belief in the power and beauty of intimate elopements.

“Couples who choose to elope do so because they prioritise the love they share above all else. They seek a romantic and unforgettable day with their beloved, free from the stress that often accompanies a traditional wedding.”
