Elope in an airplane!

For fans of an adventurous wedding, it doesn’t get much more memorable than a mile-high elopement — yes, exchange vows in a plane, while flying towards the world-class Margaret River region for a celebratory lunch.

Anita Revel, Celebrant, and Flyinleip Air Transfer Services presents this unique and fun way to get married in the Margaret River region… Don’t run away to get married — FLY away and elope in style! 

You can say “I do” in a Cessna 402 while flying from Perth to the spectacular Margaret River wine region of Western Australia. Marriage Celebrant Anita Revel** will lead you through your nuptials before landing at a 5-star winery in Margaret River for your first meal together as newlyweds.

The Perth to Margaret River return mile high elopement experience looks like this:

Taking off from Jandakot on the morning of your wedding, you will have time to view the gorgeous Western Australian coastline south of Perth. The closer we get to Margaret River, you’ll begin to notice hundreds of expansive vineyards, 5-star wineries and attractions, and the incredible forests dotted throughout the region.

When you are ready, at any stage during the flight, you can exchange your vows under the guidance of your Marriage Celebrant.

Once you are pronounced officially married, the pilot records the longitude and latitude position for posterity, and we may crack open some local sparkling wine to celebrate.

Then we land at a truly magical winery, where you can wander through the gardens for photos. You might even squeeze in a wine-tasting before you’re seated to enjoy your first meal as newlyweds.

Take all the time you need over lunch. You’ll wander back to the plane at around 3.30 in time for a 4pm departure towards home.


We look forward to helping you elope Margaret River region and making it on one of the most special and memorable days of your life. Simply “Book Now” with your names and contact details, and Anita will be in touch with next steps, including marriage paperwork and itinerary questionnaire.

** If Anita is not available to conduct your nuptials, she will find a replacement with an equally modern and adventurous vibe ;-P Or, you can choose your own! (Check the FAQs)

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it legal?
By law you must have two witnesses for your nuptials. If you have no guests, the pilot will act as one witness, and for the second, we’ll supply a witness for you. Other than that, your authorised Celebrant will ensure all the right paperwork and words are completed according to the Marriage Act. So yes, your marriage will be valid.

Can I bring more than 4 guests?
We would need to get a bigger plane (and adjust our pricing to suit), but sure, anything’s possible!

Can I invite extra guests to lunch?
It’s your booking at the restaurant — you can invite whoever you like. Our obligation is to get you the couple, and up to 4 extra passengers, from Perth to Margaret River and home again. What you do on the ground is your choice.

Can I choose my own Celebrant?
Yes. Any fee differences will be added to the total of the package price.

Can we overnight?
Yes. Extra fees will apply.

Can you organise transfers to/from the Perth airport?
Just tell us what you have in mind, and we are happy to do the legwork to track down your perfect transport. Fees will be passed on at cost.

What are the terms and conditions?
* Flights are dependent on suitable weather conditions; pilot, plane and Marriage Celebrant availability; and weight regulations are met (average 90kg per person);
* If flight is cancelled due to weather, you will be refunded the plane charter component of the package, less the pilot’s booking fee;
* Please make your own lunch reservation and payment directly with the winery;
* The Marriage Celebrant reserves the right to use your photo in his or her portfolio for promotional purposes (negotiable).
