A celebrant & MC who’s more than words:

Weddings are more than just events. They’re powerful stories brought to life through love, laughter, and heartfelt moments. I’d like to help you tell yours. With years of experience as a celebrant and reception MC I’ve had the joy of standing alongside couples on one of the most important days of their lives.

From the very first chat to the final dance, I pour genuine care, attention, and personality into every step. Whether you need someone to craft your perfect ceremony, keep the reception flowing, or both, I’ll be there. Prepared, present, and fully invested.

This isn’t just about running to a schedule and ticking boxes. It’s about creating a day that feels completely “you.” Let’s make magic together.

Peace of Mind

Weddings are amazing. Weddings are the best day of your life. Weddings are… hard. Months of planning, large expenses and wrangling the family & friends can lead to some big feelings. Lean on my 1,000+ events experience to give you peace of mind that this is going to work, and it'll be a blast too!

Full Attention

Every couple has their own story, family and community. I can't wait to listen to your vibe and help weave it through your wedding day. No two of my ceremonies or receptions are the same and I take great care in helping craft something special & uniquely you!

How It Works

  • Enquire here and we can set up a phone call, video chat or face to face meeting. If you think our vibes match, we'll lock it in.

  • I'll send an online questionnaire which gives me all the information needed to process the legal side of things.

  • Ideally face to face, we'll meet over a coffee or adult beverage and let the conversation flow. I'll listen to your story as a couple and vision of the big day. No vision? No problem. We can brainstorm how to make the day special

  • I craft your ceremony script and/or reception runsheet. All feedback is good feedback and you get unlimited re-writes. We want things perfect for the wedding!

  • One final meeting or video chat 2-3 weeks before the wedding to make sure all on the same page and the legal stuff is sorted.

  • Celebrate with your guests and know you can just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.
