'Jess made our ceremony absolutely amazing and was a genuine delight to work with. She is so so friendly and really down to earth. By the time we got to our wedding day, my husband and I felt like jess was more of a friend than our celebrant. Jess created such a thorough and unique ceremony and helped us find unique ways to tailor our ceremony to match our personalities. We loved that she brought a relaxed vibe and Included humour. We loved having Jess with us for our big day and would recommend her to everyone and anyone - she is a pro!' - Hugh and Jess x

Highlights of working with Jess:
'Highly, Highly Recommend Jess! My Husband and I agree that the ceremony was our favourite part of our wedding day because of Jess. She customised the ceremony, making us laugh, cry and everything in between and it felt like a friend recounting our love story and not another celebrant reading off a script.
Her professionalism leading up to the event was second to none, always answering questions quickly, assisting with the vow and name changing structure, she was a support through the entire process. A celebrant truly sets the tone of the wedding and I’m SO glad we picked Jess!' - Monique & Ethan x

The bare MINIMUM - $600
Your House or Mine? Beach, park or restaurant? Whether you’ve just returned from a wedding celebration overseas or you’re simply looking to make things official, the Legals Only package is perfect for you. Think of it as a registry wedding, but with your own twist—you choose the location, the witnesses, and the time that suits you best.
All we need is a spot to meet up, something to lean on, and two witnesses to sign the paperwork - and you don't even have to know them ;)
And because I can’t help but sprinkle a little magic into the moment, I’ll throw in a short, sweet something to make it feel special.
Just a heads up, this option excludes Friday, Saturday, and Sunday afternoons. Let’s keep it easy and memorable!

FAQ
I’ll be looking the part but not upstaging anyone! I tailor my outfit to match your vibe - whether it’s beachy, boho, or classic. Got something specific in mind? Just let me know, and I’ll dress the part!
You bet! I’ve got a solid portable PA system to make sure everyone hears your vows loud and clear, and I can play all your ceremony music too. Just pass me the playlist, and I’ll take care of the rest.
If you’re going for an unplugged ceremony, I’m happy to give your guests a friendly nudge to pop their phones away. That way, they’re totally present and not watching through a screen!
As many as you like! I’m all for a good chat (or a coffee catch-up) to plan your ceremony, but we can also do most things online if that’s easier. Whatever keeps it fun and easygoing!
If there’s an invite, I’ll never say no! Whether it’s a glass of bubbles or a quick coffee, I love sticking around to celebrate with my couples - it’s one of the best parts of the day.
Think of me as a mate who knows your story. I’ll keep things relaxed, keep everyone smiling, and add a touch of romance. The goal? To make it feel like a friend’s up there marrying you, someone who gets you and makes the day feel just right.
Absolutely! I’ve got plenty of tricks for calming nerves. Whether it’s a cheeky grin or a quiet pep talk, I’ll make sure everyone feels comfy and ready to say “I do.”
Anywhere you can imagine! Whether it’s barefoot on the beach, in a lush rainforest, beside a waterfall, at the top of Q1, or even somewhere with a jaw-dropping gorge view - if you’ve dreamt it, I’m ready to make it happen. I’m up for any adventure, and if there’s a special place that means something to you, let’s do it there!
No stress at all! I’ll craft a ceremony that keeps you relaxed and lets your love story shine. No need to memorise anything - I’ll handle the flow so you can focus on the moment.
Too right! I’ll be there early to meet guests, test the gear, and make sure everything’s smooth sailing so you can just relax and enjoy the day.
