Chloe & Chad - Forget Me Not - Byron Bay
We had our intimate micro wedding in Byron Bay through Hitched In Paradise, and we can't thank them enough! We had the most perfect day, all made possible through this amazing husband and wife Team! From my first communication with Tarnie, I knew that I was in great hands. She made the whole process simple and easy, and the vendors we were given to choose from were incredible - photographer, stylist, flowers, hair and make up; it was all perfect. Ben brought such a fun vibe to the wedding as our celebrant and made us feel so relaxed. We highly recommend them, you will not be disappointed!

I cannot rate Hitched in Paradise enough, Tarnie & Ben were amazing, very stress-free and catering to everything we had asked for. We traveled from New Zealand and turned up to our absolute dream wedding, fully organised and exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend going through Hitched In Paradise!!
Samantha & James - Froggy Beach - Gold Coast
We had our special elopement recently with HIP and we're so glad we chose HIP and their vendors for our sweet and special day. Our family were so impressed with the whole ceremony and thought Ben was great. he made everyone, including James and I, so comfortable and relaxed.
All of the vendors we had were amazing and helped bring everything together amazingly well.
Tarnie helped to make the whole process from start to end easy and stress-free, we couldn't have hoped for a better celebration.
Aimee & Shane - Cabarita Cove
Where do I start... Ben & Tarnie - THE BEST!!!!! Thank you so much making our day so special, it ran soooo perfectly smooth and Ben made the ceremony so fun, relaxed with right amount of romance too! Couldn't recommend them enough - absolutely brilliant!!! Thank you again xxxx
Jo & Michael - South Miami Beach - Gold Coast
Tarnie and Ben and her team of wedding ninjas were fantastic. It was the perfect decision for us to have Hitched in Paradise coordinate our intimate wedding on the beach. As the day approached we had many curve balls thrown as the CoVid-19 restrictions started to be applied and the weather not predicted to be great on the day. What we had was someone leading us through this who was adaptable, flexible and solution focused. When we look back at our ceremony the word that comes to mind is FUN! I loved every minute and found Ben to be engaging, professional yet easy going for our ceremony, which was perfect for us. Kristen's make-up and hair was beautiful, she was friendly and delightful to hang with as part of my wedding experience. Chantel captured some beautiful moments and the setting she took is to for our photos after the ceremony provided a stunning backdrop and has resulted in a lots of positive comments. My bouquet from the French Petal matched my dress beautifully.
All we can say is a big thank you Tarnie, Ben and the Wedding Ninjas for making our day perfect and memorable!
Meagan & Martin - Harvest Newrybar - Byron Bay
It is incredibly difficult to articulate how amazing this powerhouse couple are! Nothing can compare to the service provided by Tarnie & Ben. This couple are the dream team... but more than that! They are sincerely the most beautiful souls we have ever met. This was evident from the very first contact. They bring light and love to each phone call, text and email. They live a passion for what they do and it's unmatched by any other in the wedding industry. Their passion and support never wavered through the Covid and then the Flood postponements. Their commitment to our day was truly exceptional and it was like having your two best friends throughout the whole process. Their attention to detail was flawless from Tarnie's heart felt reassurance for my nervous entrance and discreetly helping with my dress and send off, to Ben's instinct for the big picture to the moment the guests arrive, to the exit song and all the big moments in between.
Hitched in Paradise also have an amazing choice of Vendors, all who share the same devotion and commitment. The service by all vendors was impeccable! Our hearts are full of love and respect for the magic that Ben and Tarnie created in giving us the most gorgeous, intimate garden wedding we could have dreamt of. We will forever be grateful for everything they both did in making our day absolutely amazing and uniquely special!!
How rare it is to find people who are truly genuine and passionate in what they do to ensure every client has the most memorable experience of getting hitched!! From the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU!
Hannah & Daniel - Family Farm - Byron Bay
We found the Hitched in Paradise company via Instagram. And after looking through their Insta & website we decided that eloping with HIP would be a great decision. The whole wedding process with Tarnie from HIP exceeded anything we could have ever imagined.
Hitched in Paradise have the most amazing list of vendors to choose from and Tarnie, the wedding coordinator is fantastic. Tarnie made the whole process so easy by booking our vendors, organising payments, creating timelines, communicating between us and our Team, etc.
We got married on a family property in Byron Bay and Ben Carlyle our Celebrant organised a very authentic, relaxed and personalised ceremony for my partner and I. The whole process of planning a wedding can be very stressful, however, Hitched In Paradise took away all of the stress and allowed us to have the most perfect day!
I highly recomend this company and their incredible list of vendors! Thank you again!
Jade & Jackson - Cabarita Cove - Cabarita Beach
What an incredible wedding experience! Tarnie & Ben made our day run so smoothly, we couldn't be more appreciative. Tarnie organised everything so well, is so responsive and wow what an amazing couple! Ben is a fantastic celebrant, he made us feel so comfortable and our VIP guests were all laughing and smiling throughout the ceremony.
Everything was planned for us and we didn't need to lift a finger which took all the stress off us. It was raining on the day but Ben wasn't stressed, he knew the weather would hold, and it did! We had a perfectly timed gap between the clouds. They had umbrellas for us and made sure everyone was where they had to be. It was just perfect!
Their list of vendors was so amazing it was hard to choose. What a great selection of incredibly talented people. Thank you Tarnie and Ben, we will forever be grateful!
Kelli & Joe - Belongil Beach - Byron Bay
I honestly can't recommend HIP enough! Our elopement was perfect and more than anything we could have asked for. Tarnie was an absolute gem and her communication throughout the process made it so easy. Her hubby Ben is the nicest man you could meet and his personality brought such a warm sense to the ceremony. The HIP vendors are also next Level!! Genuinely lovely, warm, talented people.
If you're planning an elopement (or anything to with marriage actually) you'd be crazy not to consider, better yet, use HIP! Xx
Lauren & Paul - Ardeena - Tweed Hinterland
We eloped through HIP and we both cannot recommend Tarnie and Ben highly enough. We wanted just a simple, beautiful event for two and they went above and beyond (though I suspect they are just this amazing all the time). Watching my friends plan their weddings and getting stressed out had me saying "thank goodness for Tarnie" at least once a week. Nothing was too much trouble - she arranged the venue, flowers, hair and makeup, photography and runsheet. Everything came to us on the day, absolutely zero stress. And we were followed up to make sure we sourced the Official Certificate. And we may be biased but Ben is the best wedding celebrant we've ever seen in action. He had us laughing, he had us in tears, he even helped calm my partner who was a ball of nerves before the ceremony over a drink.
If you're looking for a magical day in and around Byron, you must use HIP!

Gemma & Brendan - Watego's Beach - Byron Bay
I cannot recommend HIP enough! If you are considering an elopement or micro wedding in the Byron are, you should absolutely book with Tarnie and Ben. They work tirelessly to ensure everything is peachie perfect. Tarnie was super organised and an absolute ninja on the email; she has solutions of everything which was a massive blessing since we are not from the area and didn't have any idea where to start with our wedding. Ben is super energetic and fun, and was always thinking on his feet to add magical touches to our beautiful beach ceremony. The vendors they work with are equally amazing. We barely had to do anything but show up on the day!
Please support this incredible family business, they are absolute super stars!
Chantelle & David - Hastings Point - Tweed Coast
We recently used Hitched In Paradise for our Elopement. It was the most stress-free experience. Tarnie is super responsive and very organised. She gave us her personal recommendations of a location for our ceremony, which we were very appreciate of, given we are not from the are. We were so happy when we arrived, such a gorgeous spot.
Ben the Celebrant is so warm. With his chilled out nature we were married without any nerves getting the better of us. We ran into Ben the following day at the local takeaway, it was like running into an old friend.
Lastly, every vendor we used were so fantastic. It was hard to choose in the beginning, you couldn't go wrong. HIP have a selection of vendors with unbelievable talent and different styles to suit everyone.
Thank you so much Tarnie and Ben for being so amazing. Much Love. David, Chantelle, Layla & Corby. xx
Rob & Gabi - Fingal Beach - Fingal Heads
Recently got married on Fingal Head Beach and I couldn't recommend Hitched in Paradise more. Tarnie's communication leading up to the event was superb, and it really helped put my now wife and I at ease, knowing we were being looked after by professionals. Ben was a fantastic personality for the event, the perfect balance of joyousness, while outlining the importance of the event. They both put in a lot of work leading up to the event and it really showed the day of, it was genuinely perfect. Everyone that attended enjoyed themselves.
The vendors we chose were brilliant as well, and very adaptive to what we were after. The florist we chose was Caroline from Pikt, and she put together the perfect bouquet from a great array of very different inspo pictures. Hair and makeup was done by Tina Kristen Weddings, and she fulfilled my wife's requests to a T. And finally for the photography we went with Eliza from Pineapple images. During the shoot her directions were clear, quick, and precise.
We were after a small, intimate ceremony with only those closest with us involved, and these guys supplied us with exactly that. All up, everything was very well priced for what we got in return. We could not be more thankful to Ben & Tarnie for providing us with our dream wedding!
Meagan & Benjamin - Dreamtime Beach - Tweed Coast
We honestly couldn't reccommend Hitched in Paradise enough! Ben and Tarnie were incredible right from the start, everything was organised promptly and the entire process was completely stress-free. Tarnie is very responsive and on top of every last detail, right down to the weather. What a delight to work with! Ben is a such a lovely gentleman with a great presence who gave a warm, light and funny touch to the ceremony. Their team of vendors are amazing and complement each other so well. Everyone was so friendly and made us feel so comfortable, which is so important for Photos and Video! Which turned out amazing!!
Thank you soooo much for your beautiful tea for really going above and beyond to make our special day absolutely magical
Ruth & David - Little Wategos - Byron Bay
Ben and Tarnie were amazing! They made the whole planning process for our elopement so easy and took all of the stress out of it for us. The vendors they work with - flowers, photography and beauty were also great. We were so, so happy with everything. They are two of the loveliest people we have met and we could feel that they really cared about making our day perfect for us!
We had such an amazing, special day - it was everything we dreamed of and more!
Rachel & Rory - Numinbah Valley - Gold Coast Hinterland
Absolute Legends!!
We contacted Hitched In Paradise only a couple of months before our elopement and they nailed it. There was no stress at all, they handled everything in the most laid back way. Tarnie was fantastic at organising everything and Ben was the best celebrant ever! Totally smashed our brief for our casual Nick Cave elopement.
Alex & Luke - Osteria Weddings - Tweed Coast
We are so thankful to the team at Hitched in Paradise for giving us the most amazing day. I never thought planning a micro wedding could be completely stress free but it was! Tarnie organised absolutely everything to a T and was so accommodating to all my requests as well. Cherry on top was Ben!! Wow you get the best Celebrant on the Tweed Coast (or maybe Australia), Ben was so engaging and all our guests couldn't sop commenting on how great he was. Our day was so special and something we will cherish forever.
We can't thank Tarnie and Ben enough for what they gave us!! Book with Hitched in Paradise you won't regret it!!

Misty & Mike - Wategos Beach - Byron Bay
Tarnie was fantastic to work with - she provided all the information you require, she gave her input and most importantly she responded to emails promptly (very important for an OCD bride like me). It was such a seamless and stress free process from start to end! Ben was a lovely celebrant and has a good sense of humour. Even our family and friends watching over Zoom loved him!
Thank you both for making our special day extra special. We'll be forever grateful.
Kayleigh & Joseph - Dreamtime Beach - Tweed Coast
We just wanted to say THANK YOU SO SOOO MUCH for making our wedding day truly the best of our lives. From the start you have been incredible! Even when Covid Restrictions began throwing curve balls and we thought our wedding may be cancelled, you did the impossible and created an even more magical day! Tarnie thank you so much for being so quick replying to me emails, it made the whole process stress-free. Ben - you made us feel so comfortable and at ease. And of course we loved your bow ties. All of our vendors were fantastic! We were so pleased with the options available & couldn't have picked better ourselves!
You really did pull it off guys. You are the best in the business, we wouldn't have dreamed of going with anyone other than Hitched In Paradise (if we only could have another wedding) We wish you all the best in the future!! Joe & Kayleigh Xx
Nicole & John - Broken Head - Byron Bay
My Wife and I recently eloped to Byron Bay. Tarnie was great to work with, very responsive to all emails and questions, her knowledge of the area was great. Ben made our ceremony so much fun and has a great way with words! The cost was also a driving factor in picking Hitched in Paradise was very good value for money and all the vendors they suggest and work with were very professional and easy to work with.
If we could do it again we would! Thank you so much guys!
Michelle & Tom - Wategos Beach - Byron Bay
I could not recommend Hitched in Paradise enough and if we did it all over again (and honestly, we want to because it was amazing) we would always come back. Tarnie was great to deal with from the beginning, fielding many of my never ending queries, as well as providing a great list of vendors to choose from. We were originally booked when Covid all kicked off and Tarnie was patient and accommodating in my stress, to get everything rebooked. 1 year later and rain was forecast for our day and Tarnie was pre-empting my worries by suggesting alternative arrangements and thankfully we still got to play outside, it was magical!
Each and every vendor was everything we expected and more and we highly recommend all of them. The final piece of the puzzle was Ben the Celebrant, putting us and our guests both at ease and really allowing us to relax and the moment. The day, in short, was perfect!
Prue & Robbie - Froggy Beach - Gold Coast Elopement
WOW! What an experience that we couldn't change for the word. We couldn't have done it without those from Hitched in Paradise. Throughout the planning process they were great with communication and keeping us up to date. The best team you could have planning an elopement wedding. Benjamin our celebrant was super cool, funny and made us feel at ease on the day, along with his lovely wife Tarnie. The floral arrangements blew my mind by Lolas Wildflowers. We had the most amazing photographer and videographer!! The whole day was like a fairy tale, so intimate and special. Thank you all so much, we will never forget this special day!! WHAT A TEAM!

If you are looking for someone to help you organise your dream elopement you can stop searching no because you have found the right Team! Tarnie has been amazing with organising our little beach wedding, we didn't have to worry about a single thing, everything was done and ready to go on the day; from the Photographer, the flowers, permits, paperwork, music and so on. The communication with Tarnie and our Celebrant Ben was super easy, what an organised couple.
Ben Helped us out massively with writing our vows, especially my now husband appreciated his input and tips with writing them. We can absolutely recommend this wedding power couple if your are looking for a stress-free wedding ceremony. We hopefully don't have to get married again, but if I do, we would definitely choose Hitched in Paradise again. Thanks for everything Tarnie & Ben!
Our wedding was everything we could have hoped for and more!! Thank you Tarnie, Ben and Van for our perfect day!! Jade & Steven xx

I cannot recommend Hitched In Paradise enough. Tarnie and Ben are incredible. We had the most amazing afternoon at South Miami Beach for our special day, despite the insane we were faced with. Our original plans due to Covid but we were able to shift everything back over the QLD border. Tarnie went above and beyond to organise everything for us. I could not be happier with the selected vendors we had. Everyone had an amazing afternoon and spoke so highly of both Tarnie & Ben. Thank you so much guys you made our day perfect and so stress free.

Just want to say a massive THANK YOU to Tarnie & Ben. Travelling from the UK and wanting to get married in one of the most beautiful places in Australia and our favourite place all, Byron Bay!! Hitched In Paradise made it stress free and made our day truly perfect! Coming from the UK we had so many questions, which were answered quickly and were super helpful. Especially with the legal stuff!We had choices of photographers, styling and flowers. The ones we chose were truly amazing - hair & make up, photography, styling and flowers that we could not fault. Everything which we had imagined about our day came but even better than we had imagined!! Our day was truly one which we will never forget, especially the whales jumping in the background. Thank you so much. Jo & Stephen.

Our Elopement to the gorgeous Byron Bay was a day we will never forget. Ben and Tarnie made every step of the way stress free and were always fast to respond to me and requests we had leading up to our day. It truly was much more than we could have hoped and dreamed of, every single thing we received as part of the elopement package; such as flowers, hair and makeup, location, photos, etc. just blew us away with the beauty and the quality. Even though it was just us at our celebration, everyone put in 100% and we are so happy. If you're thinking of a beautiful elopement, we could not recommend this business enough!!

Tarnie, Ben and our HIP vendors made our dream wedding a reality!! We didn't have too many specific requests, except for that we wanted a relaxed and fun vibe for our ceremony, which Ben gave effortlessly!! We had so much fun on the day but what made it so special was that throughout the entire process leading up to our wedding, Mitch and I were able to focus on each other!! This was due to Tarnie's impeccable organisation!! Our wedding was EASY and INEXPENSIVE and just so darn beautiful!! I don't know why anyone would want to do their wedding any other way!
Thank you HIP Team, you're absolute legends!!
Brianna & Luke - Osteria - Tweed Coast
Hitched in Paradise were absolutely amazing! As with a lot of couples in 2020 we had to re-plan our wedding 4 times (with our final change of plans being 4 days out due to wet weather forecasts). Tarnie was amazing helping us navigate the changing plans and helped to re-plan our entire wedding 4 days out from the big day. We are so glad we found Hitched in Paradise - the vendors Tarnie organised were all so professional and fun, and Ben is an incredible Celebrant and brought so many good vibes!
We would recommend them to anyone!
Dan & Belinda - Belongil Beach - Byron Bay
THANK YOU!!! Tarnie and Ben you made our Elopement the most stress free, easy, enjoyable day ever. Your communication was excellent even when I got a little nervous it might rain, Tarnie reassured me. Our Vendors you suggested were amazing, so professional and beyond our expectations. There was literally fam and friends around the world tearing up over our photos and videos, flowers + hair & makeup. Eloping is definitely the nest way, it's all about you and no stress, we literally just turned up. If you're thinking of eloping I can't recommend Hitched In Paradise enough. Everyone we spoke to that have had big weddings said "oh i wish we did that'.... and we did and we loved every moment! Many Many Thanks. Dan, Belinda and Colin the Retrodoodle.

Tarnie & Ben - what a DREAM TEAM! You both created an absolutely perfect day us, our friends + family. There wasn't one guest who didn't rave about Ben (or want to marry him!) Our wedding felt like a dream, it was just magic. The ceremony was intimate, personal, romantic and oozing with love. Every detail had been meticulously taken care of, and it showed. You were both so easy to communicate with and nothing was too much trouble.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Forever grateful, Fleur + Janine x

We cannot thank Hitched in Paradise enough for the amazing wedding day they created for us. From the beginning Ben & Tarnie made us feel like we were their only clients. Their communication was fantastic right from the start, they gave us ideas about locations and facilitated interactions with our other vendors. Ben created such a beautiful ceremony and together with Tarnie and the florist, made a ceremony space that looked like it was straight out of a magazine.
Everything about Hitched in Paradise was easy, carefree and in no way stressful.
Thanks Ben, Tarnie and your amazing team of vendors.
Amanda & Sam - Watego's Beach - Byron Bay
We can't thank Ben and Tarnie from Hitched in Paradise enough for making our surprise intimate elopement at Watego's Beach in Byron Bay the most special day. They made the whole experience stress free, so easy to plan and even assured us that the heavy rain that we had all day would clear just in time for the beautiful sunset and photos - they weren't wrong!
It was absolutely perfect and we would highly recommend Hitched in Paradise. I just wish we could do it all over again already! Thank you so much!
Jessie & Jayden - Byron Bay Lighthouse
Tarnie created the most flawless day for our wedding. To start, her knowledge of the area and all things wedding meant that we had an instant answer to any question that arose in the process. The final product of our experience with Hitched in Paradise far exceeded what either if us could have imagined, Every aspect that Tarnie had coordinated was beautiful, picturesque and absolute top quality. Our celebrant Ben was nothing different. He created an extra special ceremony, calmed the grooms nerves right before the start of the ceremony and was the perfect energy for the whole day. Above all of this, having two people so down to earth and with nothing but good vibes was amazing to have a part of our big day!! Overall, complete smooth sailing, easiest and most uncomplicated experience for the bride and groom and beyond a perfect wedding. Highly recommended!!
Stephen & Melissa - Wategos Beach - Byron Bay
My husband and I wanted nothing more than to elope on a beach in Byron and Hitched in Paradise made this a reality. Everything was so straightforward and easy, especially since we had to organise it from the UK. It was an absolute pleasure working with Tarnie, Ben and their suppliers.
We can both definitely say it was absolutely perfect and the best day of our lives, we could never have done it without them!!

We are still truly blown away by just how perfect our day turned out to be under the caring guidance and organisation from Tarnie & Ben. These guys are so easy going and put us at ease right from the start. From our initial enquiry, right up until the day after our wedding, Tarnie and Ben have gone above and beyond. The entire team who were allocated for our most special day were all legends, and of the highest quality workmanship. Considering we had backed out of a large expensive wedding in WA, we are so happy we our decision to run to PARADISE! I would do it all over again in heartbeat ( perhaps as a vow renewal as we plan to not ever have to wed again ;) )
Thank you again guys, we could not be any happier!!

Hitched in Paradise were amazing from start to finish in organising our elopement at The Pass in Byron. They ensured everything went smoothly from first contact, and never once hurried us, even though we left everything to the last minute!
Ben was the perfect celebrant on the day, helping us to settle the nerves with his relaxed but professional way and giving us a ceremony that was funny, touching and just exactly the way we wanted. Especially going out of his way to include our family who were on Skype from UK.
We're so glad we found these guys as they made our day absolutely perfect!!

What could have been a very stressful time, Tarnie made me feel at ease, listened, was accommodating to requests and helped the whole way through with big and little decisions. They work with some truly amazing vendors, who helped the day come together so perfectly. The after service with helping organise the marriage certificate was great too! Ben projects a fun, engaging and warm hearted energy to his work. Get around Hitched in Paradise, they do fabulous work.

Ben & Tarnie we can't thank you enough for the huge part you and your team played in creating our perfect wedding day! It was everything we dreamed of and so much more. We managed to enjoy all the best parts about planning getting married without all the stress. Tarnie, we really couldn't have done it all without all of the organisation and time that you put into the planning of our ceremony. You were wonderful to communicate with and it felt like we were on the same page with everything. The styling and the setup was absolutely beautiful! Ben we really enjoyed your sense of humour and your energetic personality. Laura created the most lovely flowers and was so easy to work in with finding exactly what we wanted. Jerome had such a warm and bubbly energy and was clearly super enthusiastic about his photography!! Again, thank you for everything, we couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect day and we are so happy that we chose Hitched in paradise to create it for us!!

Ben & Tarnie and everyone else they put us in contact with created an absolutely amazing day for us. They took control to help is have the day the way we wanted, but were loose enough to let us make ourown choices and to do things how we wnated. The result was perfectly balanced to me and my wife's personalities.
Couldn't have asked for a better day. We cannot thank you enough for all your help.
