A 'guiding light' in the moments you need it most. Think of me as ‘a guiding light’ in the moments you need it most.

Hi I’m Kate

I have been involved in the wedding and events industry for nearly 10 years, planning, styling and managing many events through my business Events By Kate. I am so grateful for the past decade as it has lead me to this next chapter of my journey. I did not appreciate what ‘ living your purpose’ meant until I completed my celebrant licence and began officiating weddings and farewell se

rvices (funerals). Whether I am marrying you and your soul mate or helping you honour the life of your loved one, it will be a privilege supporting you in this personal and intimate time.

Britt and Tim, you absolute sweethearts! What a spectacular afternoon with these two gems and an incredible team to match. The love in the air was electrifying, and it all came together perfectly at one of my favourite venues!

Emma and Billy’s wedding was truly something special. Despite a few unexpected challenges, they embraced the day with such grace and positivity, trusting wholeheartedly in the exceptional team behind them.

A huge shoutout to the ever-talented Laura from ~ the level of detail and care she brought to the event was second to none.

The love and energy in the room was absolutely amazing ~ the crowd was engaged, respectful, and so much fun! As the celebrant and MC, I couldn’t have asked for a more delightful group of guests!

Emma and Billy, you are both incredible, and I’m so grateful to have been part of a wedding as magical as yours ✨

Rach and Max stepping into their greatest adventure yet — pure magic ✨

Maddie & Matt ~ the happiest couple there ever was!

What a divine day spent at The Peak in Lorne, a place that holds such special meaning to these two beautiful souls.

The Great Ocean Road is woven into their story ~ Maddie spent many happy childhood days in Apollo Bay and Pt. Lonsdale, while Matt has always had a special connection to Lorne. But it was during the six months they spent living there during the lockdowns that they truly realised they could spend every single day together and still want more.

That time in Lorne solidified their bond and became the backdrop for some of their happiest memories. It’s where Matt proposed, and now, where they’ve chosen to begin their next chapter as husband and wife.

Maddie and Matt, thank you for being such a joy to work with and for letting me be part of your incredible day ~ you two are beyond! 😘

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely amazing experience with Kate! From start to finish, she made our wedding ceremony so personal, meaningful, and truly unforgettable.

She took the time to understand our story, and the words she crafted reflected exactly what we wanted to share with our family and friends. Kate’s warmth, professionalism, and calming presence made the entire process stress-free.

She guided us with care through each step, and on the big day, her delivery was heartfelt and genuine. We couldn’t have imagined anyone better to marry us.

Highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a celebrant who goes above and beyond!

One week since becoming Mr + Mrs Murfett!

Married on the land where Claudia’s mum was raised, the day felt beyond special. From the serene setting to the love shared, every moment was calm, sweet, and divine in every way.

Claudia and Curtis said “I do” in a way that was true to them, creating a memory that will last a lifetime.

For Sarah and Ahmad, the Royal Botanic Gardens will always hold a special place in their hearts.

It was here, on one of their very first dates, that they strolled hand in hand, sipped coffee, and dreamed about a future they hoped to share. From picnics to quiet moments with their beloved dog Henry, this garden became a sanctuary of love and cherished memories.

Sarah and Ahmad thank you both for letting me be a part of your journey. Your hearts are as beautiful as your love. 🤍

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kate is an exceptional celebrant! She married my husband and I in October 2024. From the moment we met Kate, we knew she would be the one to officiate our marriage.

Kate is so warm, kind and friendly and her communication and professionalism are second to none. We felt so reassured and Kate made the process so seamless from beginning to end. We feel so blessed to have met Kate and she will always hold a special place in our hearts.

We will always look back on our day and reminisce on what an important part Kate played and the way she perfectly told our love story. Kate you are an absolute gem! X

As a celebrant, choosing an outfit that fits perfectly with my couples’ wedding aesthetic and style is so important to me (and a part of my job I love!)

It’s the little details that go a long way!
