Cairns, QLD

Everyone loves Cairns. Tropical, relaxed and a little bit crazy, this town will make memories for you whether you like it or not. This is a new location for us so our first few couples to be wed here can choose between the esplanade option (no sandy toes, lovely shady sea-side location) or the full beach option (quite private and very… well… beachy!).

Run away to tropical north queensland to really leave your wedding planning woes behind. It is impossible not to love the idea of a relaxed and intimate seaside ceremony with the sea breeze in your hair and a perfectly picturesque palm tree casting some shade over you and your beloved.

Location Highlights: We love everything about Cairns, and we have chosen our location so you can make the most of being in this fabulous town. Close enough to all the action to be a stroll from just the right bar or restaurant for your after celebrations, yet still capturing the natural laid back beachy vibe that makes this the perfect elopement destination.

Local features: 180 degree water views? Tick. Palm trees? Tick. Mangroves? Tick. Tropical elopement perfection? Tick. You just provide the love, Cairns provides the rest.

Important things to note: Sunrise is magic here, if you want an early ceremony. Golden hour (just before dusk) is also fabulous. This is a new location for us so our first few couples to be wed here can choose between the esplanade option (no sandy toes, lovely shady sea-side location) or the full beach option (quite private and very… well… beachy!).

Other places you might consider: Couples who are considering a Cairns elopement might also be interested in our Byron Bay elopement package, or check out Townsville for another tropical option.

Just married weddings made our day easy and stress free. Emailed instructions along the way were easy to follow and kept us updated. We were assigned Lisa Newman as our celebrant and she was amazing. She made the day fun and stress free. A brilliant alternative to more traditional/registry processes. And the Queen Victoria Gardens location was beautiful with a variety of backgrounds for photos.

It was a quick but a very lovely ceremony. Hassle free for us and just right for our budget. Our celebrant Jonelle is so comfortable to be with. The Just Married admin as well is so prompt and provided us with everything we need. They even remind us with the things we need to submit. Thank You so much Just MArried Weddings. You made our wedding just the way we want it. Thank You

Incredible location for small ceremonies. My husband and I had an amazing time at our Sydney Harbour elopement with a small group of family. Jonelle was excellent and our ceremony ran smoothly. I highly recommend if you are wanting a smaller wedding.

We were married on South Perth foreshore, a really beautiful intimate ceremony. Our celebrant Brooke was really lovely and accommodating to our style of wedding. Overall the booking, paperwork and ceremony process was easy and no stress. I'm so glad we opted for South Perth foreshore vs Perth registry office.

I booked with them then cancelled because of lack of pretty and accessible location options and lost $100. Your admin and customer service was ok but very dissapointed with your locations as they are very limited and underwhelming. The photos you have on social media aren't of the exact ceremony location because you use photos from other areas that have been photographed that are away from the ceremony location. Why is one location (Hunter Valley) literally a rest area for drivers and truckers? Surely there are better options. A rest area is hardly a desirable location. Also when I browsed a beach location it looked very secluded on your social media but its not at all.
