About Elope to Sunshine Coast
Elope to Sunshine Coast is a wedding planning business led by Sheryl van Heerden, a planner, coordinator and stylist who has worked on more than 300 Sunshine Coast weddings. Her focus is small celebrations – elopements and micro weddings – and her team handles the organising so the couple can enjoy the lead-up. The main offer is a set of done-for-you packages, either ceremony only or ceremony and reception, held at beachside, hinterland and chapel locations. A dedicated planner works with the couple from the start, books the location and suppliers, and coordinates everything on the day. Packages run Monday to Thursday, with some weekend options, and usually suit up to 30 guests, though selected venues can take more. Any extras are arranged with the business's trusted suppliers and quoted separately. Couples planning their own wedding can book the planning service on its own. Sheryl can lead the full planning, guide a couple organising things themselves, or step in for the final details and run the day, for weddings of up to 150 guests. Each booking begins with a free 30-minute discovery call about priorities, numbers and budget. On the day, the team manages suppliers, timing and the small details behind the scenes, and classic ceremony and reception styling can be added.
