Do you want an engaging, fun and organised celebrant that is a cut above? I am passionate about creating personalised wedding ceremonies.

The first few minutes of Brittney + Ben’s ceremony were packed with surprises and set the tone for what would be an unforgettable day.
Guests were led en-masse through the woods buzzing with curiosity to a secret ceremony spot. As they arrived, they were greeted by the sounds of live musicians and an explosion of colour that hinted this was no ordinary celebration.
I kicked things off in my signature style: a quick shot of whiskey with the groom. Then I warmed up the crowd, encouraging them to bring all the good vibes. I didn’t need to ask twice—this lot was clearly ready for a party.
Just as the crowd were steading themselves for the arrival of the little ones, Classic by MKTO blared from the speaker and the beer boys Andy + Daniel strutted in, handing out cans from their beer belts to random guests.
Next up were the page boys, Artie, Cooper and Duncan who stole the show by rolling in on their own tiny cars to a soundtrack of Riding’ (Dirty) by Chamillionaire. Hilarious!
Flower girl Stella gave groom Ben a huge hug at the top of the aisle—absolute cuteness overload.
By the time the bridesmaids entered, dressed in showstopping, brightly coloured dresses, the smiles were unstoppable.
Then came the moment everyone was waiting for: Britt, the stunning bride, arrived arm-in-arm with her parents. The groom’s tears set off a chain reaction, and soon there wasn’t a dry eye in sight.
Laughter wasn’t far behind, though, as I launched into a cheeky roast of the bridal party. They took it like champs—thanks to jokes land perfectly and then all the guests participated in a Pledge To Enjoy themselves.
This was the dream crowd, the kind every celebrant hopes for: guests who were fully invested in the emotions of the moment, willing to laugh, cry, and let the ceremony sweep them away.
It’s these little choices—the music, the secret ceremony location, the joyful burst of colour, and, yes, your choice of celebrant—that create a ceremony’s emotional impact. So, when you’re planning your big day, don’t overlook the details and don’t hold back on the personalisation. They’re what transform a good wedding into a truly unforgettable one.
