Reviews of ELOPE BC (Event Planner)

Dawn Donnelly

If you are searching for a unique, heartfelt, completely custom ceremony look no further. Finding someone who bring worlds together, speak to our hearts, and include our family and traditions can feel like finding the end of the rainbow. Sue is just that. She has a beautiful ability to capture the spirit and soul of the couple while ensuring that your needs are met in ways that you couldn't have even imagined. She included handfasting, a flower circle, and we had our signing table topped with our beautiful Greek cloth. We were in the perfect hands for such a meaningful occasion. We couldn't imagine anything more perfect than what Sue had given to us, and we couldn't be more grateful to have found the end of the rainbow with her.

Sue and Nicole were absolutely lovely and very easy to trust with our big beautiful day. They were in consistent contact with us and took us thru each step gently. I knew they would pull together a magical experience and even still they exceeded all expectations. We and Our loved ones are over the moon for the photos by Trina Cary. The bouquet by Minim Designs were gorgeous! These lovelies placed each and every flower in the space with intention. Everything was perfect. Very highly recommend this wonderful team.

Sue and the team were absolutely amazing to work with. Their eye for style, details, and settings is spot on. Was so happy with how everything turned out and so happy we went with elope bc!

This team creates absolute magic for their couples! We waited a long time to have the day we wanted, and we honestly could not have had a more perfect day thanks to ElopeBC. From the heart string pulling custom ceremony, to the ethereal location and decor, to the stunning photography they made everything the best experience possible. They are so patient and kind with all your questions, and have literally the best vibes ever, it's the best experience ever and I can't recommend them enough! 10/10

We were undecided on which route to take for our "covid" elopement, or even if we should wait a couple years to seal the deal. Then we happened upon Elope BC and fell in love with the concept and the beautiful brand and imagery! Seeing their Instagram page made the decision easy; we booked the next day. We are so thankful we decided to work with them. Our ceremony was personal, simple, but gorgeous and full of special details. Sue and Nicole both felt like family on the day of the ceremony because of the warmth and love you could feel they bring into what they do. Our parents said it was the most beautiful, heart-felt wedding they had ever been to. Covid or no covid, we recommend working with this business if you value focusing your day on just love and family (and want STUNNING photos to remember it by!)

Sue and Nicole are two amazing and talented individuals. Sue’s beautiful ceremony made us so emotional and really encompassed our love story while Nicole’s planning and coordinating made our day calm and less stressful. All their hard work in finding the right locations, florals, photographers, musicians and even the custom ceremony is astounding. Everything they picked worked together so well. I would highly recommend working with them as they made it look so easy and effortless. It was also nice to wake up on my wedding day and not have the chaos that sometimes comes with it. We just needed to show up at our ceremony time, marriage license and rings in hand and the rest was taken care of. So simple, so easy. When we arrived at the ceremony, everything was beautiful and breath-taking. They were organized, ready to go and helped us calm our nerves before the ceremony began. Their biggest advice they gave to us before the wedding (and during) was to breathe, take in this lovely moment and to be in the present. That made all the difference. We were able to focus on our love and not get caught up in the nerves/stress of it all. Sue, Nicole and the rest of the team for our July 2021 elopement were incredible! All in all, our wedding day was extraordinary! Thank you Sue and Nicole. We couldn’t have asked for a better duo/ a better team to be part of our wedding and highly suggest anyone looking for an intimate ceremony to reach out to ElopeBC. You won’t regret it. It was definitely one of the best decisions we made and we continue to talk about how unreal and wonderful it was.

Joyce and Scott

Highly recommended very professional and accommodating. Sue and the rest of the Elope BC team gave us the best wedding experience and we couldn’t ask for more..

Meg Crawford

Ok so these girls are absolutely PHENOMENAL at what they do. We wanted a easy wedding day that still felt romantic and cost effective, and these girls absolutely nailed it. Covid restrictions and wildfire season made it difficult but they still managed to pull off a fantastic day! Thank you ladies you’re amazing!

Anastasia Zubenko

These two lovely ladies have done an incredible job for our fall elopement! The process was so easy and stress free for us and that’s exactly what we needed. When we arrived at the location, they were ready to go and it just went so smoothly. We absolutely loved the location at Hydraulic lake, it rained quite a bit on the day and they moved the arbour into a super cute and cozy wooden gazebo. It was sooo nice and cozy and we were absolutely happy with how everything turned out. Ah, and the arbour! Absolutely beautiful! A dream come true! Everyone involved with Elope BC was very talented and did their best for the couples to have the absolute best experience! We are so happy we stumbled upon Sue and Nicole! Thank you so much again for organizing the elopement of our dreams!

We always wanted a small intimate/ elopment style wedding so when we came across Elope BC, it was like it was meant to be. From the first moment we meet with Sue, I could tell this was going to be the best decision we made. Walking into our location made me speechless, the detail they put into every little thing was beyond what we expected. It was so perfect I wish we could do it over and over again!

Erin Hayes

YOU SHOULD ELOPE WITH THE HELP OF ELOPE BC!! Eloping was the best decision we ever made, and we needed the help of Nicole and her team to make it all happen. The focus was always on our love and the intimate gathering around that. It allowed us to slow down and spend the entire day connected to each other. You can always consider doing a "celebration of marriage" with friends and family later, which is what we did (and it's super fun to celebrate twice!) Nicole is an absolutely incredible, one-of-a-kind person. She is so passionate about creating a magical and breathtaking space for you to get married. (She seriously spends an insane amount of time searching and finding these places in BC). Her positive and loving energy was critical in planning our wedding and on the day of. I truly hope more people get to experience that magic of eloping and working with Nicole to make it all happen :)

My new wife Monica and I got married through Elope BC in March of 2021. The experience was amazing. We had a stress free ceremony. The location was amazing, the photographer was perfect, and the ceremony was beautiful. Sue and Nicole make this experience one that you and your new partner will remember forever. If you want to have only positive memories about your wedding day, I would recommend ElopeBC. 10/10, perfect.

Jenna Stasuk

ElopeBC makes your wedding day so unbelievably magical. From the location and music to the ceremony, flowers and photos everything is thoughtful and filled with special touches. Sue and Nicole are so friendly, helpful and caring. I’ve had the pleasure of having my own wedding through ElopeBC as well as being a part of my sisters wedding (which they did an amazing job with too). I would highly recommend for any bride who wants a small intimate wedding in a beautiful natural location and doesn’t want to worry about all of the fuss of planning the details themselves. Thanks for making our day so amazing!!

Words cannot express how incredibly happy we were with everything. Sue & Nicole are phenomenal and exceeded all of our expectations. We had so much fun and it was the absolute perfect day! Highly, highly, highly recommend!

Lindsey Welch

I can't recommend ElopeBc more! They did an amazing job in the middle of everything that's going on and created a day that was so magical and heart-warming and we'll never forget it! Everyone involved did an amazing job!!

Anne Richards

It was such a pleasure working with Sue and Nicole on our personal elopement! We never expected to plan a ceremony during a pandemic and from out of town but their professionalism, flexibility and caring approach made it so easy and enjoyable. We were able to choose an amazing location from a variety of options and it was just perfect. The setting, music, flowers, photographer, hair and makeup were exceptional. The personalized ceremony made the day incredibly special for us … working on the script with Sue was emotional and we will cherish the memory and how it captured our love story. Sue and Nicole exceeded our expectations for creating an intimate and unique elopement experience. Thank you Elope BC for being part of our story!! ❤️ Rob and Anne

Kelsey Lynn

Our elopement through Elope BC was everything I could have dreamed of and more. Sue and Nicole made it effortless for us and created something beyond words. My husband and I are both over the moon with how everything went. I truly cannot thank them enough for creating something as if they’ve known us our entire lives. I couldn’t have done this without them. Sue and Nicole, what you two are doing is absolute magic!

We recently got married with Elope BC and the entire experience was perfect. Our small wedding was beautiful and looking back, we would not have wanted it any other way.

Alicia Ferraro

Elopebc truly gave us the wedding of our dreams. The whole process was stress free from start to finish. Sue, Nicole & their team are so AMAZING at what they do. The stunning location, to-die-for florals (by minim designs), & intimate ceremony captured by joel - every detail of our day was everything we hoped for + more. Thank you again for helping us celebrate our love in such a magical way!!

Luke Gill

Our elopement/tiny wedding with Nicole was a dream come true. She worked very hard to scout us out the perfect location, and connected us with phenomenal vendors and people to make the day perfect. She is such a kind person and such a pleasure to work with. Very responsive and thoughtful, and really understands what people want. Ten thumbs up and 14 billion stars.

Betina Buten

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Elope BC. So beautiful, so relaxed, and well put together. Sue, Nicole and the rest of the team did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them!

We had the honour of eloping with Sue and Nicole March 21, 2021 in beautiful Okanagan Falls. The day was perfectly planned and we did not have to worry about anything. We showed up and Sue & Nicole took care of everything. Highly recommend if you're looking for an intimate stress free wedding that still has the quality of a high end event. Thank you Sue and Nicole!

Lauren k

Elope BC made our wedding dreams come true. The location, photographer, decor and musician were all magical. I feel so lucky to have had such an amazing experience, while never lifting a finger. Sue was amazing to work with, the ceremony was personal and it was just truly amazing. Thank you so much to Sue, Nicole, Joel and everyone else who made this day happen. 10/10 reccommend. I wish I could elope again.

Monica Mogollon

LOVED IT! I’m so incredibly happy to have come across Sue and Nicole! The whole process was so seamless. Sue was very responsive, answered all our questions and made sure we were comfortable with everything as we live outside of BC and traveled for this elopement. When we showed up and they had the most beautiful ceremony set up and ambiance of warmth and love. The location and decor were gorgeous plus the music and photographer were amazing. Sue is the best! Her personal ceremony captured our love story and brought us to tears. It was truly magical and 100% worth every penny! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND ELOPING WITH THEM

Olga Brine

We had our dream elopement thanks to Sue. She found the perfect place and absolutely tallented photographer. Strongly recommend!

Jessica L

We had a fantastic experience eloping with the help of Elope BC. Sue was so incredibly responsive and catered to all of our elopement desires. From arranging the most beautiful bouquet, putting together a personalized ceremony, and sorting out all of the details to make our dreams come true... we couldn't have asked for a better experience! We never would've imagined having the helicopter elopement with our dream photographer (Nadia Iannone!) with such EASE. Seriously... the most seamless process ever. The pricing was beyond fair for amount of work that was done behind the scenes, we quite literally felt like all we had to do was show up! We'll be reflecting on our perfect day till the end of time... thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!

Sebastian Denno

The location and decor were gorgeous and the price was super reasonable. They really played up the angle of us just doing this for ourselves, which helped put things in perspective and keep the whole experience feeling like it was about our love and nothing else. Overall very enjoyable !

Nikki Isidro

Going with Elope BC was the best decision we've made! It really allowed as to focus on our ceremony and not get caught up on all the bells and whistles that comes with planning a wedding. Our day was so magical and we would definitely recommend it to couples who want an intimate, romantic wedding without sacrificing the quality of venue, flowers etc. We also loved the surprise of seeing the venue for the first time :) Special shout out to Sue Cairnie....the personal ceremony she wrote made us both cry. She's so gifted.

Kelly Arkinstall

Sue and Nicole of ElopeBC are down right magical! Together, they created the perfectly intimate, visually stunning wintery elopement of my dreams. It far surpassed anything I anticipated. ElopeBC has absolutely every single detail covered, and made my wedding calm, and stress free. The florist they worked with designed stunning floral arrangements, that just had my jaw drop! The photographer was professional, fun, and creative. We can't wait to see our pictures! The level of professionalism from both Sue, and Nicole is top notch. From the first moment of contact, to the last goodbye after the ceremony... they proved to be committed to helping me realize the vision of my day. PLEASE if your considering ElopeBC for your special day, trust me, just do it. You won't be disappointed.

Susana Baez

My husband and I had the best experience working with ElopeBC. We are still in awe of how beautiful everything was. Nicole and Sue are geniuses and so is everyone that was involved behind the scenes. The flowers, the professionalism, the planning. Everything was perfect and surreal. A few of our guests said they would've loved something like this for their wedding. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an intimate and special ceremony! So dreamy, THANK YOU!!!!

Jillina Gaetz

This amazing team did everything they could to ensure our special day was special and unique! If you are looking for an affordable, sustainable, and intimate way to get married I would definitely recommend Elope BC!

J Barrett

The ladies of Elope Bc are nothing short of amazing. The whole process was easy and effortless, sending us timelines, instructions and tips to make our day extremely special. Flowers by Minim Designs were beautiful and photographer Trina Cary made sure we were having fun while taking our photos! Thank you so much for such a magical day! J & B Barrett

teresa wenner

We had such an amazing wedding with ElopeBC! We wanted a stress free, relaxing yet still magical elopement, and it was even better than we had even imagined, best decision we could have made! We put our trust in Sue, Nicole and their team for our big day and we couldn’t have been happier! They organize everything from the private location to the photographer, florist etc and all we had to do was figure out what to wear and show up! They customize the ceremony to you and your partner to make it absolutely one of a kind and so memorable. Not to mention sharing in the costs with the other couples(who you never even see!) makes it such a cost effective and sustainable way to have your memorable day! If you’re looking for an off the beaten path, sustainable, and absolutely magical elopement, we couldn’t recommend ElopeBC enough! Thank you so much Sue & Nicole and your team for such a special day!!
