Pricing FAQs

The common money questions, answered plainly.

How much does it cost to get married in Byron Bay?

The legal marriage itself can cost as little as $780 with our paperwork-only service. An elopement ceremony is $1,800 and a full wedding ceremony is $2,200. Add the official certificate from NSW BDM, and anything else (photos, dinner, flowers) is up to you.

When do we pay?

For paperwork only, you pay when you complete the online booking form. For the elopement and wedding packages, send an enquiry first and we confirm your date and payment details once we know we are available.

Does payment lock in our date straight away?

Your date, time and place are confirmed once your paperwork has been received and checked and we know we are available. Book early for weekends and sunset times.

Are there hidden fees?

No. If an extra cost applies, like our witness service or travel outside the usual area, we tell you before you go ahead.

Can we upgrade from paperwork only to an elopement or wedding ceremony?

Yes. If you start with paperwork only and decide you want a personal ceremony, get in touch and we will talk you through moving to the right package.

Is the price the same anywhere in Byron Bay?

Prices cover Byron Bay and the usual Northern Rivers area, including Ballina, Lennox Head, Bangalow, Brunswick Heads, and Mullumbimby. We confirm any extra travel before you book.
