Sometimes the warmth and energy from the guests, vendors and couple just hits right.

Sarah and Huw had just that perfect mix of the most glorious crew to make this the biggest hug of a day ever.

Throw in the most beautiful wet weather ceremony spot and c’mon. It’s was just all perfect.

HB to this legend 💥

We are very very very very very very lucky campers to have you. Love from Iggy, Bowie and the Big Dog (that’s me, duh)

This story starts with the ring. Luke goes on a daring trip to procure the ring without Pat knowing. And I am talking risk taking behaviour here.

Pat goes to work one day and Luke secretly takes the day off. To catch A FLIGHT to Queensland, get the ring and then fly back in the same day without her noticing.

BOLD. I’m assuming he didn’t fly Jetstar.

Just 2 days later, they are flying to Bali, They arrive at the aeroporto, he’s got the sparkly boy in his carry on luggage and begins to panic through the security screening. He gives the security guard a subtle wink. He winks back. He mostly thought Luke was cute, that’s why.

Carry on. Our Luke had been so chill this whole process and this is when he has panic moment. Whilst waiting for their flight in the Qantas lounge, Luke is over there buying ring insurance for them to go away with.

We all get there, in one piece. We get some Bali belly and then our lovebirds go off to Nusa Penida for a little trip. Nothing like a bit of Bali belly to set the stage for a romantic proposal.

They go for an epic hike up the mountain overlooking Diamond Beach. When they get to the top, Luke knows it’s now or never. You can do this buddy, he’s mentally psyching himself up.

They get to the top of this glorious mountain. He’s gone a little quiet, he’s acting weird, a bit sweaty.

And that’s when Luke finally get’s down to business. He get’s down on one knee…

And Pat comes out with a quick “no, don’t”

Time stands still, don’t panic Luke. She has an acute fear of PDA, so we’re all good here.

Luke said some lovely things. He cried, Pat cried, I cried the other day just thinking about it. Luke says how much he loves her and asks whether she would like to continue spending the rest of their lives together.

This is when Pat is sure that she blacked out. As she didn’t answer.

Luke is just there, down on one knee, like, “hey can you say something”.

And of course, it was a hell yeah!!!

And then they got hitched at the glorious by yours truly.

As soon as I saw this incredible Aunty dancing alone during dinner, I knew I had to join her.

Never leave a mate hanging.

Safe to say when we eventually opened the dance floor, she was absolutely cutting shapes.

There is nothing more humbling than being booked for a fellow vendors wedding. And then they write a review like this…

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
“It’s literally impossible to give sufficient praise for this guy.

I’ve worked in the wedding industry as a musician & singer for near 20 years; I’ve seen Adam in action maybe a dozen times. Because I’d hung out with him in various green rooms & elbowed him aside at several canape buffets to get access to the good cheese, I had a good idea about the guy he is and the type of ceremony he conducts - which is why he was top of the list for my own wedding. And oh MAN was he the right choice.

Our ceremony was beset - literally the exact second my wife walked up the aisle - by the biggest, most hilariously evil thunderstorm any of the many wedding industry pros in attendance had ever seen. Howling sideways winds, driving rain, earth-shaking cracks of thunder, umbrellas tumbling across the landscape. More than enough to fluster a lesser celebrant... but not Adam! He was cool & calm as the storied cucumber, asking how we’d like to proceed then immediately taking charge when we shrugged and asked him what he suggested. Several necessary pauses were masterfully inserted whilst Armageddon unfolded around us, then Adam got us back on track beautifully.

The ceremony itself was just perfection. Adam has that rare blend of charisma & humour, without being over the top or obnoxious. Having performed at literally hundreds of ceremonies over the years, I’ve seen the full spectrum from Hey Hey It’s The Celebrant Show to robotic cut-&-dried low-talker blandness; in my opinion, Adam strikes the exact right balance between bland and over-the-top. He facilitates the ceremony perfectly and hits the right heartfelt and funny notes without making it about him, like other lesser celebrants occasionally do. The ceremony was 100% about us, beautifully written and perfectly executed, even under the most absurdly trying circumstances.

Thank you mate. Thank you so very much for being part of our day, we were absolutely thrilled to have you and will forever be singing your praises to anyone and everyone planning a wedding.”

One of my absolute favourite weddings of last year gracing the fine pages of Hello May.

These two absolute legends did things their way. From an epic feast , trivia during their ceremony to walking back down the aisle hitched with RuPaul blasting. It was awesome. I was a lucky enough boi to be able to do the ceremony thangs and the MC thangs. 🤤 (that emoji is wild by the way (that’s because the food was good (I digress)))

nailed this.

THE PRE-CEREMONY HYPE CHAT

My favourite part. And, in my opinion, the most important part.

The part where I have a chat with all your guests and get them totally pumped for what is about to happen. Two extraordinary humans that they adore are about to get married. HUGE. So we need to warm up.

All the guests get a bit of a vibe of me and what the ceremony is going to sound like. And, between you and me, I get to vibe out your guests and see what they are going to be like.

I tell everyone that they can clap, cheer and just have a good time. This isn’t a boring ol’ stale ceremony. THIS IS THE BEST CEREMONY EVER.

Hey friends, ready to up your celebrant game and make your weddings even more awesome?

Come get Mentored By Adam! Look, I’ve been doing this for a while now, but I’ve had a bunch of people reach out about mentoring recently, so thought I would finally tell y’all about it.

I’ve been in the game for over 6 years now and have married well over 350 couples (I lost count). So I want to pass on what’s in my head to fellow celebrants and help lift the industry up even more. I’ve spent years honing my ability to think on the fly, have fun, and embrace the unexpected that weddings often throw our way.

Whether you’re a rookie or a seasoned pro, let’s hang out, chat, and turn your ceremonies into the best they possibly can be. It’s the best investment you can make in your business. The feedback I get from these sessions is incredibly humbling. We chat about anything and everything to up your celebrant game. You just let me know what you want to talk about and I’ll dissect it all with you, everything’s on the table. My goal is to create an environment where you feel inspired, empowered, and excited to take your celebrant business to new heights.

Keen bean? To book a session in just hit the link in my bio, slide into my DM’s or comment with your email address and I’ll send you all the deets.

TAYLOR AND JOSH

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
“Oh boy - what a treat it was to work with Adam for our wedding. While my husband and I were looking for celebrants, he stuck out like a bright shining beacon: his website promised a fun experience, tailored to fit the couples he was marrying and he did not disappoint.

We snagged his last booking of 2023 and counted our lucky stars - once we had made our booking, he sent both of us through an individual questionnaire asking about ourselves, our memories, our pet peeves for each other - it was like wedding homework and it was dope. Our meeting to sign our Notice of Intended Marriage was the first time meeting in person and we were thrilled and confident that we had made the right decision. Adam instantly felt like an old friend and we felt well looked after. He tailored our ceremony so that we could include all the things we wanted: special shout outs to our folks, drawing our witnesses names out of a hat, shooting our guests with a NERF gun. Normal wedding stuff.

On the day of, Adam made the whole thing run smoothly. People thought he was our mate - he began our ceremony with a personal Acknowledgement of Country, made jokes with us and at our expense, he shot our groomsmen with the NERF gun, he made us laugh uproariously and then made us cry with a special message from our most dear ones (our dog and cat). As an added bonus, you get to listen to your relatives asking all day “Where DO I know this guy from?” and you can gleefully inform them that, yes, he does in fact do weddings for Married at First Sight.

Your celebrant (+MC if you have them for your reception too!) is an investment - they hear your love story and get to know all the intimate details you have to share when you’re getting married. Adam was such an integral part of our day and we truly loved him. Couldn’t recommend enough.”

This is the moment I asked Cody whether he would promise to learn how to use a shared Google Calendar effectively.

Jess put me up to it. I swear. Something that bugs her about old mate.

Not sure if he said “I do”.

Cheeky grins from a cheeky promise.

Welcome to Newcastle!

…Me

Because I live here now.

Yep, I can welcome people. In fact, when you drive into Newy these days I’m the guy who welcomes every single person. They gave me a badge and everything.

I’m a novacastrian now (I had to google what that meant).

Yeah, we did the thing all Newcastle locals hate and moved from big old Sydney to clog up the beaches north. With a growing family, a whole lot of dogs and a toddler well and truly on the move, it just seemed right.

WE ARE PUMPED.

So Newcastle and Hunter Valley couple for 2025 come at me.

And southerners too, I’ll still be taking trips down to me old haunt a lot so still taking bookings south.

Which leads me to… all of you lovely legends being hitched by me in the next year. When it’s time for us to meet up, I’ll send you one of those electronic mails and you can still book in a meeting in Sydney. Yes, they will be a little bit less frequent but whenever I’m down, I’ll be chucking it in the calendar. And for all you Newy folk, we can hang in Newy. Anddddd of course, there’s always Zoom so we can just all hang in our pyjamas.

ANYWAYZ. Newcastle, it’s nice to be in you.

Newy folk say hey and send through your reccos please.

At my favourite place in the world ⚡️

In between two people in their most intimate moment.

Well that sounded weird. But you made it weird.

But you know what I’m banging on about. I’m a lucky boi.

And I’m all about letting you have those intimate moments. This is one of the very few bits where I actually stand here. For most of the shindig, I’m off to the side slinging yarns. I let you two get nice and close without old mate spoiling the vibe.

But for a wee little bit, I like to come say Gday. I whisper a few things, say a few more things and then bu**er back off.

It’s still my favourite place to hang tho.

GRACE + ADAM

Not me - him. But also me. I married them. I got to tell their story too, it’s a doozy:

So, Adam very quickly after meeting Grace, asked her, “wanna go to the beach?” to which Grace replied, “when?” You can imagine the panic that rose in Grace when Adam said “now.”

Grace was understandably freaking out, not knowing if she would meet a fun, spontaneous guy or if she would end up a missing person's cold case. She arrived at the beach before Adam in her white and green striped bikini, and soon after, Adam strolled over the rocks in his white and green striped shirt.

How cute.

Even though the weather had taken a turn for the worse, the pair sat on that beach for two hours. Grace was so nervous that Adam thinks she may have spoken for 110 of those minutes.

Which was probably good for him because, in his small opportunity to speak, he came out with “wow your eyes are shocking,” when Grace took off her glasses.

Adam was glad that he wouldn’t run out of things to talk about on the next date, he was happy to let Grace chat.

All Grace remembers from that date is staring at him and thinking “score”. He was an 11/10.

The very next day, Adam messaged her again at 5:45 am (This Adam would have blocked him for that) and asked if she wanted to go to the northern beaches. He was hoping she was a morning person, the birds hadn’t even woken up yet.

But apparently, she’s as crazy as him, and he picked her up at 7am and off they went.

Adam packed mangos, which he found out later were Grace’s favourite.

But, oh no, Grace was worried about getting mango stuck in her teeth.

But Adam smoothly turns to her and says “Don’t worry, I packed floss”

He pulled out that floss and handed it to Grace like a mind reader, she leaned in for their very first kiss.

…hopefully after using the floss.

JIMMY + HOLLY 🌹

Not a bachelor anymore.

When I first met these two, the brief was on point. They wanted it to be a vibe. They wanted their guests to feel a part of it. They wanted to laugh until they cried. They wanted to feel the love.

And one thing was clear, Jimmy and Holly don’t take themselves too seriously. An absolutely perfect recipe for an ace ceremony.

We started with a group vow and ended with a group shot of tequila. And in the middle were words of advice from Jimmy’s family, ninja vows and a shoutout from the good doggo over there.

And then was time for me to tell their story, blow by blow for all their favourite peeps. It was all on the table.

Safe to say, it was an absolute vibe.

HELLO MAY 👋

I’ve been featured! Woop! big old wedding planning guide is on sale now.

They asked “nine of Australia’s best celebrant” (umm ok I’ll take it ☺️) a little question and old mate over here answered like he’s never answered before. Stop talking in third person Adam. NO.

Ahem… super pumped to have my mug in my fave mag again. Legends.

Go get it! Now! It’s great, promise.

JUST PICKING UP 🤷‍♂️

Hey wanna get married?

To the love of your life by a qualified marriage celebrant like me.

Yes?! Great. Let’s go.

Exact transcript of how this conversation went.

📸

30/08/2023

SHUT UP AND LISTEN…

Me.

I like to put myself on the spot. Every ceremony, sometimes for a while, I tuck away all those neat and tidy words I’ve written and just chat.

Unfiltered, unplanned, just what’s happening infront of me. It’s the best way to engage with people and chill out my couples. We’re just all people having some banter. Ya know, riffing.

And I always invite the legends getting hitched to chat back if they want. Anthony here got the memo, he had to get the facts straight.

Sometimes it’s just important to shut up and listen because the best stuff usually isn’t the stuff that’s written, it’s the stuff you don’t expect.

And we’re off 🚐

6 weeks in Little Van Morrison is just what the doctor ordered. Venturing up to Cairns and back chasing that sunshine, babies.

As you can imagine, I had to book this big block over 18 months ago. So no weddings over the next month and a half, ima be itching when I get back.

Never fret. There will be plenty of me failing to reverse a caravan content to keep you going.

And doubly never fret. I’ll still be checking my emails from time to time, but be patient, I may be on a beach somewhere on The Whitsundays . So yes, replies will be a tad slower than usual but still coming in hot.

Love you all. Like more than you think. 😘
