Your Love,
Your Story.

Celebrant fees across Australia typically range from around $600 to $3,000+, depending on experience, location, and what's included. My packages start from $650 for a simple Legals Only ceremony, right through to $2,700+ for a fully bespoke Ceremony & MC experience.

I recommend booking at least 3–12 months in advance, especially for Sydney's peak wedding season (October–April). That said, I occasionally have availability for shorter-notice bookings — always feel free to ask!

Absolutely! I'm based in Sydney and happy to travel across NSW and beyond. Travel fees may apply for locations further afield — just let me know your venue and we'll work it out together.

I do — I split my time as both a celebrant and a professional MC. If you book my Ceremony & MC package, I carry your day as one continuous story, from the ceremony through to your final send-off, keeping the energy and timeline on track the whole way through.

This is a simple, legally binding ceremony without the trimmings — just the vows and paperwork required to make it official. It's popular with couples planning an overseas or destination wedding later, needing marriage for visa reasons, or wanting something very private and low-key.

An elopement is just the two of you (plus your two required witnesses) — no guest list, no reception, just your vows in a spot that means something to you. I love these for the closeness they bring; it's still a full, meaningful ceremony, just a quieter one.

Yes to both. Vow renewals are a lovely way to mark an anniversary or simply recommit to each other, and they carry no legal paperwork — just celebration. Commitment ceremonies work the same way for couples who want to publicly declare their relationship without a legal marriage.

I'll get back to you within 2–3 hours (generally quicker!) to set up a free, no-obligation discovery chat. From there, if we're a good fit, I'll send through a proposal and booking agreement, and once that's signed and your date is secured, we get started on your ceremony.

Always. That first discovery chat — whether over coffee or a video call — is exactly for this. There's no pressure and no obligation; it's simply a chance for us to get to know each other and make sure I'm the right celebrant for your day.

I maintain a trusted network of fellow registered celebrants for exactly this scenario. In the rare case I'm unable to attend, I'll arrange a qualified replacement and hand over your ceremony script and all the details, so your day goes ahead without a hitch.

Most ceremonies run between 20 and 30 minutes, though this flexes depending on how many readings, rituals, or personal touches you'd like to include. We'll map out timing together well before the day so there are no surprises.

Yes — and I love it when couples do. I can help guide you through writing them, give feedback, or draft them for you entirely. Whatever feels right for you both.

Definitely — readings, unity rituals, sand or candle ceremonies, cultural traditions, even a beloved pet as ring bearer. If it means something to you, we'll find a way to weave it in naturally.

Absolutely. Many of the couples I work with are blending two cultures, languages, or family traditions, and I see that as a privilege, not a complication. We'll work together to honour both sides authentically.

You need two witnesses, and both must be over 18 and able to understand the language the ceremony is conducted in. Beyond that, it's entirely up to you — close friends, siblings, parents, whoever feels right.

Every word. I don't work from templates — I sit down with you, learn your story, and write your ceremony script from scratch, then refine it with you until it feels exactly right.

Yes — under the Marriage Act 1961, every wedding in Australia must be conducted by an authorised marriage celebrant, whether that's a civil celebrant like me, or a minister of religion. It's what makes your marriage legally recognised.

Beyond writing and delivering your ceremony, I take care of the legal side of getting married — lodging your Notice of Intended Marriage, preparing the paperwork, and signing and lodging your certificate of marriage afterwards. I make sure everything is legally sorted, while your ceremony still feels personal and true to you.

On the day, I give you an official certificate of marriage — but the full, government-issued marriage certificate you'll need for things like changing your name comes from your state or territory's Births, Deaths & Marriages registry, usually a few weeks after the wedding, once I've lodged the paperwork.

To become a civil celebrant in Australia, you need to complete a Certificate IV in Celebrancy (or equivalent), pass a fit-and-proper-person check, and be approved and registered by the Attorney-General's Department. It's an ongoing responsibility too — registered celebrants complete ongoing professional development every year to stay on the register.

Yes! I'm a Commonwealth-registered Marriage Celebrant, regulated by the Attorney-General's Department. You can check the register of celebrants to verify.
