REGISTRY-STYLE WEDDINGS

Want to get married without all the fuss or can't afford a large wedding? Maybe you're thinking of eloping. If you're after a budget wedding on the Gold Coast, this may be your solution.

Many couples these days are opting to get married in Government Registry offices. This type of ceremony is basic yet great if you're on a tight budget.

Helen now offers 'Registry-Style Weddings' on the Gold Coast for the same price as the Government office but with a spectacular view! These ceremonies are simple, meaningful and affordable.

COST: $275.00

LOCATION: Laguna Park, Palm Beach, Gold Coast (subject to availability). The above photo shows the wedding rotunda which overlooks the lake, making it a perfect backdrop for your special day. The ceremony is undercover and there is seating for up to 30 guests. Being just a short 5-minute stroll to the famous Gold Coast beaches it really is an ideal location.
