25.01.2022 This will be SO much fun! Make sure you save the dates and keep an eye out for more information soon!
25.01.2022 I’m going to put myself out there and say, please don’t support the Brides Choice Awards until they do the following: Change the name to something far more inclusive of the same sex community and those who identify as other than brides & grooms. Show some transparency on how these votes are gathered and collated. Stop charging ridiculous amounts of money to receive a cheap award and a social media logo. It is my opinion, and my opinion only, that these sorts of awards/organisations only cheapen our industry as they make their dollars. If you feel the same, please share #coupleschoice
25.01.2022 As you can see I’ve been doing this for a while now. I was MC at my first function when I was 17, which means I’ve been an MC now for 35 years! 35 years! Imagine the things I’ve seen and learned in that time. Talk to me, I can help to make your event, function or wedding reception one to remember! (And yes, that really is me in the 1st photo!) #mc #beendoingitawhile #verygoodatit #masterofceremony
24.01.2022 Whilst we can only have 5 people at a wedding currently, we WILL come out of this and you WILL be able to celebrate again with all of your family and friends present. Just how fabulous will those celebrations be when you can really party again? Hopefully, they'll be as joyous as M & L's wedding was in January this year.

23.01.2022 Lisa is fabulous, so please get online!!!
23.01.2022 When the daughter of an old school friend and her partner asked me to conduct their wedding, my first thought was Shit, I’m getting old! Once I’d gotten over that, we began our journey together. It was fabulous and as you can see from the photo’s and their review, B & C loved it all. @melhillphoto @pialligoestate #michaelbowercelebrant #marriagecelebrant #mc #bowermc #loveandlaughter #celebrant #wedding #canberracelebrant Thank you for tailoring the perfect ceremony for C...hris and I, not overly serious or traditional and a bit of fun. All our guests commented on how perfect the ceremony was and that it was a true reflection of us. We both felt so comfortable having you part of our special day, especially when you accommodated our toddler who needed a cuddle (or two) mid-way through the ceremony. You made the process so easy, stress free and ensured that we were able to enjoy our moment. We are so glad we had you part of our wedding and highly recommend you as the perfect celebrant. See more
23.01.2022 Love these guys! It’s a great opportunity to do something special for mum!!
22.01.2022 If you had big plans for your wedding day and now your not sure what to do? One option is as easy as ABC - A Backyard Ceremony!! That’s exactly what K & W and J & D did. They realised that they couldn’t do the whole big gig and decided that despite that, they were just getting married. These ceremonies were so beautifully intimate and genuine. It’s certainly worth considering when you’re trying to work out what to do. #michaelbower #marriagecelebrant #canberracelebrant #intimateweddings #smallweddings #weekdayweddings #love #justmarried #elopement #genuine #justyou #weddingsofcbr
22.01.2022 I love this photo for so many reasons. I love it because that gorgeous woman next to me is my rock, my love, my life. And she is so bloody gorgeous!!! #punchingabovemyweight #alwayshavebeenalwayswillbe I love it because it’s taken at a wedding and it was at a wedding that we first met! I love it because it’s taken at the wedding of the daughter of a great mate of mine and the whole afternoon and night just felt like family! I love it because my mate Jimmy is just lurking in the background. I love it because it’s a wedding and I just love weddings. Getting married? Look me up.

21.01.2022 Get on board! It’ll be fun, I promise!!
21.01.2022 Things have been a bit quiet on the work front but there are always things to do. For example, the always fabulous team at Oath & Stone Designs have just redesigned my website for me and I couldn't be happier. Nice, clean and simple! It says everything that I want to say and tells you a little about me - who I am, what I do and how I do it. If you have a second on this rainy Good Friday, pop on over and have a look. www.michaelbower.com.au
20.01.2022 The response has been AMAZING! There’s only 1 spot left for our all inclusive pop-up wedding day at Bushfield Farm 12:30pm - Sunday 13th December 2020. Amazing value, and perfect for a busy couple! https://www.canberrasmallweddings.com.au/bushfield-farm-pop
20.01.2022 I thought I’d post some pictures of me at work. I laugh a little everytime I say that because it’s hardly work. Someone recently said It’s not a job, it’s a way of life, and that is SO true. I love it! As a Celebrant, I would love to marry you but don’t forget about the reception too. I’ve been an MC for over 30 years now so I have tons of experience and can make your wedding party, one to remember!!

19.01.2022 This was such a fabulous wedding. At the Sergeant’s Mess in Chowder Bay, Sydney, I got to celebrate the ceremony and reception for wonderful friends. A gorgeous afternoon and evening spent with great friends right on the harbour. What more could anyone ask for? If you need a celebrant or an MC, www.michaelbower.com.au
19.01.2022 Bring on December & 2021!!
19.01.2022 I love the big gigs, the large weddings and the energy that is created. I also love the quiet moments and the genuine energy and love that can be created in the smaller ceremonies. V & W got married in a little Gazebo near the Yass River. Their 2 witnesses and I waited at a distance while they shared a glass of sparkling, and some intimate vows, dancing to the energy they created. While we waited for their signal to join them, I was smudged by one the witnesses. It was amazin...g! It cleansed my of any bad energies and surrounded me in positive energy so that when we joined V & W, we didn’t interrupt their space, we simply became a part of it. After some legal stuff, combined with 2 beautiful readings, they were married! It was fabulous! Thank you V & W! www.michaelbower.com.au #love #spirituality #celebrant #mc #weddingcelebrant #wedding #mbmc #peace #elopeyourway #marriage See more
18.01.2022 What an afternoon this was! M & N got the party started well and truly with their relaxed approach to getting married. I loved it because they are such an awesome couple and I also got to work with some of my favourite peeps @bushfieldfarm @lazygrazer @chicagocharlesmusic @belcombridgephotography @guestofhonourpetchaperones Jerrabomberra Clothing Alterations and then they partied on afterwards in the fabulous @rhqbn #michaelbower #mc #celebrant #marriagecelebrant #weddingcelebrant #afterparty #goodvibes #celebrate #married #wedding #love #bride #groom
18.01.2022 @mbowermc in partnership with @canberracelebrants, donate $30 from every ceremony conducted to charity. It doesn’t matter which ceremony you choose, $30 goes to charity. We are very proud, and humbled, to have recently made a donation that will help @menslinkcanberra to continue to do the fabulous work that they do everyday. Probably even more so in our current situation. If you book any ceremony with @mbowermc, $30 from every ceremony will go to charity, helping those that need it most. Thank you to all of the couples that have chosen @mbowermc & @canberracelebrants #charity #michaelbowermc #mc #help #men #dowhatyoucan #marriage #love #humankind #supporteachother

18.01.2022 This was what I call a dearly beloved moment, catching the groom completely off guard. We all had a lot of laughs in this ceremony for K & C and some of those wonderful moments were captured by Timeless Creations The Chapel At Gold Creek Here’s what K & C had to say about the day: Michael was the celebrant for our recent wedding and he definitely exceeded any expectation that we had. He has some weird superpower that allows everyone in his presence to feel comfortable. He set such a wonderful tone for our day that we will forever be grateful for. Our guests are still commenting on our great choice of celebrant. There is a reason Michael has such a fabulous reputation within the wedding community. #marriagecelebrant #canberramarriagecelebrant #mc #marriedlife #superpower #relaxedcelebrant
17.01.2022 These two fabulous people are celebrating 57 years of marriage today. They’d tell you it’s not always easy, it’s not always happiness, it’s not always sunshine but it’s always worth it. 6 kids, 22 grandkids & 8 great grandkids later, they’re still going strong. Well done Ma & Pa, love ya!! #weddinganniversary #love #happilymarried #stillinlove #soulmates #partners #legends
17.01.2022 Even with just 5 people, your wedding day can still be special! It was fabulous to be a part of as Canberra Small Weddings!

16.01.2022 It was so much fun marrying J & T and that’s how it should be. The legal bits are serious but everything else should make you smile and laugh. J & T had a great day and if you want one too - www.michaelbower.com.au @firedustphotography @parlour_cbr #marriagecelebrant #canberramarriagecelebrant #gettingmarried #wedding #enjoyit #laughter

13.01.2022 I love marrying people! It’s such a great thing to do and I really enjoying meeting and getting to know my couples so that it’s much more than me just turning up on the day. I’m there with you on the journey, helping you to create exactly what you want your ceremony to be. I can help you on your journey if you like, just like Kimberley & James. We cannot recommend Michael highly enough! His warmth, empathy and professionalism made us feel so comfortable throughout the wh...ole process. He is outstanding at what he does. Michael's understanding, compassionate personality really shone through in his ability to create and deliver the perfect ceremony for us. His delivery truly blew us and our guests away, and was the perfect balance of sincerity, personality and humour. Thank you Michael! www.michaelbower.com.au T8 Photography Ginninderry Homestead + Events #marriagecelebrant #mc #wedding #celebration #yourday #love #engaged
12.01.2022 These guys do an amazing job and are so professional. I’m a big fan. You will be too!
12.01.2022 In these Covid times, you can never be too careful when you're getting married! That was the approach that Brittney & Louis took when they got hitched. They got married before the 5 people rule came in but they were still playing it safe. It was a good fun wedding with a gorgeous couple and their wonderful families and friends. Stay safe B & L and wash your hands!!
12.01.2022 If you haven’t checked this out yet, don’t delay any longer! There are only a couple of spots left for January! Why not start 2021 with a fabulous Pop Up Wedding!
11.01.2022 CAKE CUTTING 101: When you’ve just married the woman of your dreams and you’re about to cut the cake, don’t accidentally head butt your wife! It did all end with a good laugh though. Congrats A & T! @kellytunney @pialligoestate #headfirstinlove #buttiloveyou #marriagecelebrant #mc #laughoutloud #celebrant
11.01.2022 Someone once said When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. K & A said When life gives you lockdown, create something magical! Whilst it wasn’t what K had originally planned, it was beautiful. It was simple, it was elegant, it was filled with love and emotion. Big weddings can be wonderful but so can a few people in a room, wrapped in love. "We were married in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. Like so many couples we were uncertain what was ahead for us and whether o...ur day could even proceed at all. Michael was reassuring, calm, helpful and positive throughout the whole process. We had to change our plans a multitude of times and Michael was an amazing sport about all of it. On top of that, Michael wrote a ceremony for us that was completely perfect, personal and so suited to our story. Our day would not have been the same without him. He is an incredible person and we cannot thank him enough for making our wedding so magical".

10.01.2022 This is K & A’s story. They were going to have a BIG wedding with a BIG after party at Bushfield Farm. Why, because Bushfield Farm put on a hell of a party. Kylie & Jimmy are awesome! Then, Covid-19 came along and buggered their plans completely. So K, being the amazing woman that she is, put on her thinking cap. She planned everything, in line with Covid restrictions, and I married them at Bushfield Farm. They spent the rest of the day visiting family & friends, all in accor...dance with the rules, and continuing their celebration across the day. The great news out if this, they spent quality time with the ones they loved, and renovated their house with the money they saved. Even if my good friend, K’s mum, is still a little shitty with me! If you can’t have the wedding you want, have the wedding you love! #marriagecelebrant #celebrant #loveoverlife #covidwedding #itsthesimplethings #love #marriage #weddingcelebrant #truelove See more

05.01.2022 I love it when my couples are happy and judging by this review, D & L were pretty happy with everything. Michael was an amazing celebrant and MC for our special day. It is without exaggeration when I say that the majority of our guests commented on what a wonderful job he did. Michael was extremely easy to deal with, patient and always answered all the questions we had for him promptly. On the day Michaels professionalism was evident, his ability to undertake his job whilst ...making every single person laugh or cry in the room was extremely special for us. I would and already have recommended Michael to family and friends for any event as he is fantastic at what he does. He has become a very special person in our lives and we are forever grateful to have had him be a part of our wedding day. #michaelbowermc #mbowermc #marriagecelebrant #mc #mastermc #weddingceremony #weddingreception See more
02.01.2022 20 years ago I married this stunner! We met at a wedding over 23 years ago. Everyday I think about how lucky I am to have met her. We have a very real marriage. We laugh, we love, we share, we give, we disagree sometimes and we annoy each other too. We’ve had good times and bad times and everything in between but we are still together. It hasn’t been easy. I certainly couldn’t be married to me. I love this woman. She is amazing and remarkable and fabulous and gorgeous and smart and funny and loving and giving and did I mention gorgeous?? I’m not too bad either! 20 years darling, well done!
02.01.2022 I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of the amazing team of suppliers bringing this FABULOUS Pop Up to life. It is classic, it is elegant, it is just what you’re looking for!
