Elopement Packages

Eloping is an affordable and exciting way to make your day super special. A beautiful, intimate wedding day, free of stress and without high cost. Just perfect!

We offer two beautiful elopement packages throughout the entire year and are able to make arrangements at very short notice. Although generally for the couple only, a luxury elopement to Tairua can include a few guests as well.

A Registered Celebrant, Donna Brooke, who will create a personal ceremony just for you

Witnesses for the ceremony

'My (now husband!) and I came to Sunlover Retreat for the elopement package. The 2 night stay was just perfect. The attention to detail was incredible to make our wedding so special.

"Our elopement was a breeze from the first meeting with Donna to having such a fun celebration. Donna strives to understand what you want and need, and then makes it magical. She has a lovely warm caring approach and her recommendations for flowers and photography were perfect. Thank you Donna for making our day so perfect. Kevin and Nicola" February 2022
