ABOUT THE WEDDING ESCAPE
Our Story
Part travel guide, part wedding planner - born from one couple's own destination elopement.
A planner born from
my own elopement
While planning my own elopement, I quickly realised that most wedding planners were designed for large, traditional weddings - with pages dedicated to seating charts, reception layouts, guest lists, and table styling. What I really needed were tools for destination research, accommodation and flight comparisons.
The Wedding Escape was born from that frustration. When I got engaged over four years ago, my partner and I knew from the very beginning that an elopement was the right choice for us. As I started planning, I searched everywhere for a planner that reflected the unique needs of a destination elopement, but I couldn't find one. So, I began creating my own.
The guide I wish
I'd had from day one
What started as a personal project soon grew into something much bigger. Throughout my entire wedding journey, I continued refining and developing this planner, turning it into the resource I wish I had from day one. Every challenge, every overwhelming decision, and every piece of research became an opportunity to create a simpler solution for future couples.
The Wedding Escape combines everything I've learned along the way, making destination wedding planning more organised, less overwhelming, and far more enjoyable. It's not just a planner - it's the guide I wish had existed when I was planning my own wedding.
"Before having children, I worked as a travel agent for nine years, giving me firsthand experience in planning seamless travel experiences. I've incorporated many of the tips, tricks, and practical knowledge I gained throughout my career into The Wedding Escape."
