We're sad to say that today was our last Pop-Up Elopement of the year! We're looking forward to bringing them back in 2027!

If you're interested in a Pop-Up Elopement and have certain dates or locations you're hoping for, we can't make any promises, but why not send us what you're thinking? Email [email protected]

And if you're a business looking to partner with Pop-Up Elopements, give us a shout too!

Thank You to all of our incredible couples who participated in our 2026 Fortever After Pop-Up Elopements!

And another big Thank You to Nicole at Off the Branch for decorating our Pop-Up arch! It's made our ceremonies that much more special ❤️

With the upcoming Municipal Elections, today will be the last Pop-Up of the year. But don't worry, we're looking forward to bringing this service back in 2027.

Did you know our Officiants handle the Municipal Elections? For the months of October to November, we're unable to schedule any more weddings to meet our Election and New Council Inauguration and Orientation.

Please contact us sooner rather than later if you're looking to get married, or need to get a marriage licence issued.

We are getting so excited for our next Pop-Up Elopement Day next Friday, and even more excited to be able to use our newly designed wedding arch courtesy of Off the Branch!

Nicole absolutely dazzled us with her floral additions and tulle draping. This arch is ready to be a timeless back drop to your ceremony!

We were honoured to be a part of and delighted to officiate the weddings of two amazing couples last week during our Pop-Up Elopement Day!

With blushing brides, dashing grooms, and a light drizzle it was a beautiful day at the Agency One Lands of Point Park. We would like to thank for allowing us to hold the ceremonies on their land.

We would also like to thank the happy couples for choosing a Fortever After Elopement!
