Reece .CMC

Young Fun Celebrant & MC | Described by his couples as THE HYPE QUEEN!!!!

My motto is “Your Day. Your Way!”


  I’m living my best life; helping couples realise their wedding dreams and turn them into their wedding reality! I love everything involved in the wedding planning process!


  Tell me everything so we can keep that excitement going all the way through your wedding!


 I have many different passions in life; music, gardening, pop culture, cosplay, and Disney. Anyone who knows me well can tell you I’m a big Disney fan!


  I love a classic fairytale almost as much as I love a happy ending. It’s little wonder that I was so drawn to Celebrancy. 


At the end of the day, its Your Day, Your Way!


And I would love to be a part of it with you!


Rachael .CMC.MC

Geeky Girl and Creative Writing Mastermind

Marriage Celebrant & Master of Ceremonies

"You lucky ducks are getting hitched and I guess ready to get into it, right?! Well I am here to make it the smoothest sailing ceremony planning experience possible and even better… I am there to rock it on your dream day with all the quirk, giggles and make it no where near a snorefest.

Your dream… is my dream! I want it to be different to any other ceremony because you are different to every other couple. 

Basically, the aim of the game is to have people leaving the ceremony pumped up and ready for a good time at the bar and not desperate for the bar (we’ve all be there.)"

Adam .CMC.MC

An Entertainer & Performer

Marriage Celebrant & Master of Ceremonies

   My name is Adam Jackson and my job is to work with you to create and present a unique, personalised ceremony for your wedding, naming or commitment ceremony. Working closely with you I will write and present a unique ceremony just for you.

​

     My background is in performance, having worked as a theatre-maker, children’s entertainer, event host and MC for over 15 years. With this experience I can cater to any style of ceremony, be it traditional, light-hearted or even themed (I can happily dress up for your event as well!)

Susan .CMC

A Creative and Fun Celebrant & MC .... And DORK!

  Dorky?..... Yeah, It's true! I enjoy so much making people laugh, sometimes at my own expense and other times it's because I'm just so damn witty hehe!


  You will most likely catch me the whole time of our meetings with a smile on my face and excitement about everything you are talking to me about!


 I pride myself on being very empathetic and someone who goes above and beyond for my couples!


I am a crazy list lady! 


I create them for absolutely everything so the experience with me will include lots of different to-do lists and deal with me making notes during all of our encounters!


Joseph .CMC

East Gippsland Celebrant

The role of being a ceremony designer and performer is really the culmination of so many other skills and interests that Joseph has developed over the course of his lifetime.


He has always felt comfortable speaking in public since childhood, and enjoyed creative writing and storytelling as a teenager, and he thrived in critical academic discussions around motivation and purpose during university, and then Joseph finally discovered the joy during his time performing Buddhist rituals within a community. 


Once Joseph's time within each of these activities was done, this new activity of 'celenbrant' was such a natural fit that he jumped in with both feet. 



Peter .CMC

Our Distinguished Gentleman 

 (with a wicked sense of humour)

Everyone has different expectations, hopes and needs. My role as your celebrant is to ensure your ceremony is just as you want it - whether big or small, formal or relaxed, traditional or a bit surprising! 


I am an experienced marriage celebrant and I love my work! I specialise in weddings, renewal of vows and commitment ceremonies (including same-sex commitment ceremonies).


I am a confident public speaker, but more importantly I recognise the need to listen. After all, when planning and delivering a ceremony, the focus should be on the couple not me. It’s their day and their ceremony. My role is to work respectfully with couples to create their dream ceremony that is meaningful and memorable. No two couples are the same, so each ceremony should be fresh and special.


My goal is always to reassure, guide and remove any stress ... Happy planning!


NIK .CMC/DJ/MC

Our Queensland Celebrant - A true Master of Ceremony - DJ/MC - Musician

It’s important that you feel comfortable with your celebrant; being able to connect with them means that you will not only be more relaxed in the lead-up to your day, but also on the day itself. You need to trust your celebrant as you will be telling them your relationship details so they can create a ceremony specifically for you both.


Having a celebrant lead your ceremony means that I can draw on aspects from your relationship to create something uniquely you. A ceremony that is tailored and personalised just for you.


Every ceremony I do is tailored to meet YOUR vision of your day.


All you need to decide is what type of ceremony do you want? From full ceremonies to elopements, legals-only to vow renewals, I can help. No matter how lavish or simple a ceremony you are wanting, I would be honoured to be your be your marriage celebrant on Gold Coast and surrounds.
