A Fabulous Crowd: Haylee & Mark

A diary entry from our team at Elope Australia

Haylee and Mark brought the party with them, they brought a tribe! The boys enjoyed drinks at Sails prior to the ceremony, the girls on the other hand filled their room with champagnes, fluffy slippers and matching PJ’s for some getting ready photos.

The morning started with the girls all getting ready together, and the energy in the room was electric from the moment we walked in. Champagne flowing, laughter everywhere, and Haylee right in the middle of it, getting pampered and organised for her big day. Haylee had thought of everything, the bags were overflowing with all the usual trimmings of a large scale wedding. When you head to the middle of no where to celebrate, EVERYTHING needs to be shipped in! You could see from the moment that the team walked in the door, we had brought the pinterest board with us.

We headed out to the national park with a park ranger in tow, who shared some wonderful insights into the area in and around Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park as we made our way through. There was water at Mutijulu which made for some gorgeous golden hour photos with just the two of them. We had left ample time to capture two locations in the National Park. It gave us all a lovely chance to slow down for a moment, take a breath, and really soak in where we were before the celebrations kicked up a gear.

From there, it was on to the camel farm for the ceremony — and Haylee and Mark had a fantastic crowd cheering them on, twenty-three guests strong, all there to watch them tie the knot. The group was staying at Sails in the Desert, so we had everyone hop on the camel farm bus together to head out to the ceremony, then back again afterwards via the pub for a well-earned nightcap to keep the night going.

Big crowd, big energy, and an absolutely fabulous celebration from start to finish. Everyone enjoyed a drinks and grazing package at the Uluru Camel Farm. We enjoyed some speeches around the open fire and danced under the nights sky.

Congratulations, Haylee and Mark.
