the act of running away with a lover to Jackalope Hotel on the Mornington Peninsula, with

the intention of getting married

Your Mornington Peninsula Elopement Package

Does the idea of a big, stressful, expensive wedding with the attention of 100+ guests constantly on you sound more like a royal nightmare than the best day of your life?

I feel you.

This beautiful, sanity-saving elopement package is especially designed for couples who believe that marriage is more than a huge hurrah of drunken festivities, and more about the love between two people. Insanely gorgeous and ever so dreamy, the Jackalopement package is for lovers who want to celebrate in intimacy over two nights of the utmost relaxation and luxury.

For everyone out there who thinks that there’s more to weddings than arguing over a soul-sucking guestlist and picking boring wedding favours, and just want to say your ‘I dos’ to the love of your life and start your new adventure together…

This is for you.

Why Elope?

If you’ve gotten this far, I’m probably preaching to the choir. But humour me, let’s start with the obvious.

Say goodbye to the hefty price tag and endless planning. No more unnecessary pressure and expectations.

Create something that’s more intimate, more relaxed, more adventurous and more you.

An elopement is the perfect solution that flies in the face of tradition and truly makes your marriage about the only two people who actually matter – you and your lover. Easy as pie.

It’s your day and you can call all the shots, without breaking the bank. Let’s do some simple math together.

In 2020, the average cost of an Australian Wedding was $36,000. With ceremonies kicking off at 5pm and receptions concluding at 11pm, that half-day wedding comes down to just six hours at $6,000 per hour. If that doesn’t make your brain hurt, power to you.

On the flip side, the Jackalopement package offers you refined luxury over a two-night stay for an hour and nine minutes of that big wedding. This leaves you with a huge amount of savings to put towards an epic party later should you choose, a honeymoon, or even a house deposit. Or you could just pocket it for a rainy day.

You deserve to live this large at least once in your life, and you can confidently do so knowing you’re actually saving money. Am I right, or am I riiiiight?

Two nights accommodation in the most spectacular suite in Australia's most awarded luxury hotel. If ever there was a time to live large, this is it.

Completely relax with a divine massage with your partner. You deserve this.
