Hitched in Paradise

We just 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 I was in great hands. She made the whole process so 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!

It is incredibly difficult to articulate how amazing this powerhouse couple are! Nothing can compare to the service provided by Tarnie and Ben. This couple are the dream team …. but more than that! They are sincerely the most genuine beautiful souls we have met. This was evident from the very first contact. They bring light and love to each phone call, text, email and face to face catch up.We had three attempts to getting married and they were truly our lifesavers, shining their magic at every occasion. They live a passion for what they do and it’s unmatched by any other in the wedding industry.I can’t imagine the extra hours and energy they put into this wedding after Covid and Flood delays, but they held us up with their dedication and love to ensure we would achieve the most perfect day. They guided us with great sensitivity when we were faced with these challenges despite whatever personal circumstance, they were facing themselves in these times. Tarnie’s skill at troubleshooting any challenge is inspiring. Their passion and support never wavered. Such wonderful human beings that they are! Their commitment to our day was truly exceptional. It was like having your two best friends throughout the whole process.Even though our group was small and perfectly intimate for us, I could feel the buzz and energy when arriving in my kombi. I could hear Ben talking to our guests and I immediately knew that he had captivated our guests as much as he had captivated us when we first met.Ben’s not just a celebrant, he delivers an extraordinary, personalised ceremony. He embodies the words he speaks and brings a warmth and love to the story telling of the couple. His genuine warmth and yet perfectly balanced high energy was felt by every guest who thought he was a family member. I know many other couples married by HIP have said this but it’s true! He was sorely missed at the reception.Their attention to the details was flawless from Tarnie’s heart felt reassurance for my nervous entrance and discreetly helping me with my dress and send off, to Ben’s creative instinct for the big picture from 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 their vendors were impeccable!Our hearts are full of love and respect for the magic Ben and Tarnie created in giving us the most gorgeous intimate garden wedding we could have dreamt for. 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.

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 all 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 inpso pictures. Hair and makeup was done by Tina Kristen Weddings, and she fulfilled my wife's requests to a T. And finally for photography we went with Eliza McDonald from Pineapple Images. During the shoot her directions were clear, quick, and precise. So far we have only received the highlights and they look so amazing, we cannot wait to receive the full gallery.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 and Tarnie for providing us with our dream wedding

My wife & I recently eloped in Byron bay, Tarnie was great to work with very responsive to all emails and questions and 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 very good value for money and all the vendors they suggest and work with were very professional and easy to work withIf we could do it again we would! Thank you so much guys

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 for a location for our ceremony, which we were very appreciative of, given we are not from the area. We were so happy when we arrived. Such a gorgeous spot.Ben the Celebrant is so warm and friendly. 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 so 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.Thanks so much Tarnie and Ben for being so amazing. Much love xxDavid, Chantelle, Layla & Colby

What an incredible wedding experience! Tarnie and 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 so comfortable and our VIP guests were all laughing and smiling throughout the ceremony.Everything was planned for us 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 in the clouds. Ben had umbrellas for us and made sure everyone was where they had to be. It was just perfect.Their list of vendors were all 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!

If you are looking for someone to help you organise your dream elopement you can stop searching now 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 you are looking for a stress-free wedding ceremony. We hopefully don't have to get married again but if we do, we would definitely choose Hitched in Paradise again! Thanks for everything Tarnie & Ben!

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.

We had such an amazing, special day - it was everything we dreamed of and more!
