5 Reasons Why Eloping at an Airbnb is the Perfect Choice For You
More couples are choosing to elope, and there’s a reason why holiday homes on the Sunshine Coast are the ultimate choice. They combine intimacy, style, and flexibility, turning your wedding into an unforgettable escape. Here’s why saying “I do” at a private holiday home is the perfect idea.
1. Make Memories That Last a Lifetime
Eloping at a holiday home isn’t just about saying “I do”, it’s about creating a full, immersive getaway. From the moment you arrive, you’re stepping into a private world where every detail is yours to enjoy. Spend your day and night fully uninterrupted with your partner, and, if you like, your closest family or friends, soaking in the freedom and intimacy that traditional venues rarely allow. Imagine exchanging sunrise vows with the hinterland as your backdrop, spending the afternoon exploring gardens, terraces, or nearby beaches, and toasting the sunset with drinks by your private pool. As night falls, curl up together by a cozy fireplace, share stories under the stars, or enjoy a quiet dinner on your deck — every moment becomes part of your celebration. Your wedding transforms into more than a single day; it’s a mini holiday filled with laughter, relaxation, and unforgettable memories that you’ll treasure for years to come.
2. Celebrate More, Spend Less
Why pay separately for a venue, accommodation, and extras when you can enjoy it all in one stunning location? Holiday home elopements are a smart and affordable choice: your celebration and stay are combined, cutting costs while creating a seamless, stress-free experience. At Welcome Ready Holiday Homes, we provide the perfect private space for your wedding, a beautifully maintained home or villa with all the comforts you need for your special day.
To help you bring your vision to life, we can also put you in touch with trusted local wedding planners who specialise in elopements. They can assist with everything from styling and décor to coordinating the ceremony, while you and your partner focus on enjoying the day. This approach gives you flexibility, privacy, and peace of mind, allowing you to celebrate your love in a way that’s uniquely yours — all while taking advantage of the Sunshine Coast’s breathtaking backdrops and holiday home comforts.
3. Your Day, Your Way
Every couple is unique, and your wedding should be a true reflection of your love story. Holiday homes provide the perfect blank canvas, giving you the freedom to design your day exactly how you envision it. At Welcome Ready Holiday Homes, we offer a carefully curated selection of properties — from coastal villas to hinterland retreats — each with its own charm, privacy, and stunning backdrops.
You have complete flexibility to personalise your elopement: bring your own celebrant, style the space with your favourite flowers and décor, or keep it simple and let the natural beauty of the property shine. Whether you’re planning an intimate dinner for two, a small gathering of close family and friends, or a larger group celebration across multiple villas, our homes allow you to create a day that feels personal, meaningful, and unforgettable. With Welcome Ready Holiday Homes, the possibilities are endless, and your wedding can truly be as unique as your love.
