About
I’ve been married to my amazing husband since 2018 and LOVED planning every aspect of our wedding. I wrote our own ceremony script for the celebrant and that’s what led me to becoming one. I sat on this for a few years until I did an impulse buy of the Cert IV in Celebrancy course which then led me to receive my registered marriage license. We have two beautiful children together, 3-year-old Tommy and 1-year-old Chelsie. Since launching my little love biz I I marry from 70-100 couples a year.

The full shebang, the bells and whistles, the showstopper!
Nothing is off limits with a fully bespoke ceremony and hosting as your MC into the evening to make your wedding the night of nights.
As your MC you will have me from 1 hour before your ceremony time until around 9pm the evening of your wedding!
My role as your MC is to facilitate all the key moment at your wedding and welcome your guests from the ceremony to cocktail hour and into the reception. I’ll ensure your guests know where to go, what to expect, what’s on tap and when to jump into that photobooth!
As for the hosting, I will assist with your family photos, wedding party entrance, speeches, cutting of the cake, first dance etc
I customise all receptions with a little sprinkle of personality. I will get some juice on everyone in your wedding party and surprise them all with a little intro (let me know who’s single, I’ll give them a special shout out), and who doesn’t love a little fun fact about each person giving a speech!?
Behind the scenes I’m ensuring everything is running on time and hosting those key moments to your schedule. I’m also communicating between all your vendors, kitchen, musician, and photographers to ensure not a beat is missed!
A lot of the time the role of an MC does get overseen by a guest or family member, but from experience they’re not a professional, they will usually just say a name for who is up next for speeches and leave it at that.
For a profresh like myself, there is so much more work to be done! From a view point, I will spend about 14 hours all up from being there on the day, planning & writing a custom bespoke reception.
Fully bespoke ceremony!
My jam, my bread, my butter! My ceremonies, honestly, I don’t even know where to begin! I put so much love and soul into each ceremony.
During the space of your 30min ceremony you’re going to experience so many different emotions, so let’s take this for a ride. You may not remember every word that I speak, but you will remember how your ceremony made you feel, did you laugh? Did you happy cry? Was there a pivotal moment? Did old mate up the back shout something out because it was just that good!!
I customise all my ceremonies and for The Lush package, you will get it all! You will get a ceremony that is light, effortless, fun & romantic. Ceremonies are based off a vibe, which is usually just how you are as people.
Your ceremony is all about you, but its also about your guests. We want your guests to leave your ceremony like ‘WOW’ that was the bees knees, so personal and enjoyable for all. I love engaging with your guests, whether that’s by telling a fun story, getting them to shout something out, making you both do something cute, whatever it may be we need to keep in mind we have 100 of your favourite people here to support you, so lets not just give them an open bar, lets show them a good time, and how it’s done.
She’s a real cutie! But because of her little size, she is only offered Monday-Thursday.
My Mini Lush is a Micro Wedding, which is a wedding with more intimate guest numbers of 20 or less.
Having a wedding with 20 guests opposed to 100+ is such a different vibe, and sometime there is a little confusion about the difference between my Mini Lush & The Lush, obviously the guest numbers but it’s also how I structure the ceremony, deliver it and how I engage with your guests.
Mini Lush is very intimate and is more directed at you as a couple than it is for you and your guests. There is no personal story, mainly because you don’t need one. Usually everyone at the wedding is very close with you and they already know it, so instead I write surprise elements from both of you, which usually has that beautiful and fun feel to it. I will also add small personal elements throughout. You will still get the traditional layout of a wedding, walking down the aisle, vows, ring exchange, I dos, party time walk back up the aisle; all those things that make it a wedding!
This package will only work for a selected few weddings and must book in a video chat to see if it is suited. Please know I will never downsize The Lush package to this just because you’re after a ‘basic’ ceremony (Lauren doesn’t do basic).

Question about marriage
Hi, I am in a long distance relationship with someone in the Philippines. We are looking to get married, but in the Philippines, you need to get your parents consent if you are under 21 and she is 19. If we were to get married in Australia, will she still need parental consent? The reason why we don't want her parents consent is because her mother is emotionally abusive, controlling and toxic. She will never consent to us getting married.

Hi!
The legal marriage age in Australia is 18
What should we be asking potential celebrants to make sure they're a good fit for us?
What are some of the things we need to consider or ask of a potential celebrant before we decide which one to go with?

It is all about vibe you have with your celebrant!! is their ceremony style the same as yours? how do they plan their ceremonies, do you plan it with them??
do you want traditional, modern, fun, romantic. cookie cutter ceremony or a custom ceremony.
Always meet them first, whether thats face to face or over video chat! Usually they will direct the chat and ask questions, so you can come into it blind. Keep in mind, a face to face meeting is a lot more full on of a sales pitch than a 15min video chat where it's more about vibe
Try not to look at price and more at what they offer, what makes them different, how will they give you the ceremony that leaves you and your guests thinking 'WOW that was the best ceremony I've been to'
