25.01.2022 Mid-week afternoon weddings are awesome!! Your guests have a perfectly valid excuse to take a half day at work. It makes the weekend feel that little bit closer. Aaaand you're not competing with hundreds of other couples for a weekend wedding! Send all your love to this awesome, chilled, funny and creative couple, Raje and Rhys - you'd love them too!! Xx
23.01.2022 If this is what your current search history looks like, you've probably heard that from midnight tonight, weddings can't be any bigger than just 5 people (Damn 'rona!). This includes the couple getting married, their two witnesses, and the Celebrant. It's pretty much the bare legal minimum required. It's a shitty time for all of us, but I'm still here to celebrate love and keep marrying awesome couples - hit me up if you're still keen to go ahead with a micro-ceremony. Xx
22.01.2022 Yesterday, I had the great pleasure of welcoming Kiki and Matt's 6 month old into the world, during one of my Mega-Awesome Super-Cool Naming Day Extravaganzas! Today, I'm backing it up and returning to marry Kiki and Matt in a really fun, non-traditional ceremony, in front of Wollongong's City Beach. Kiki and Matt and absolutely wonderful people - fun, funny, caring (all of my favourite things) and I can't wait to marry them later this arvo! ... Double-tap/like to send them love on their wedding day!
22.01.2022 When you're trying to work from home, but the neighbours want to play! #birdlife #cheekylittlebuggers #bondilife #thehappycelebrant
19.01.2022 Remember the champagne showers couple (Nuo Wa and Rob) from my previous post..? Well, here's a few more moments they wanted to share with you from their awesome micro-ceremomy!

19.01.2022 Working on a ceremony today from my other office. #fakecop #realcelebrant #possiblestripper #thehappycelebrant
14.01.2022 Weddings in 2020 - it's a pretty grim affair. But just because the party has to stop doesn't mean you can't still get married. So, let's have a Quickie together! A Quickie is The Happy Celebrant's new, express micro-ceremony, where you, your partner and I come together (wherever and whenever you want,) we say the legally required stuff, your two adult witnesses sign the legal paperwork, and POOF, you're now legally married! ... Shit, I'll even throw in a chilled bottle of sparkling to celebrate with straight after! If you'd like to have a Quickie with The Happy Celebrant, just hit me up - the earliest we can do it is just one month from today. #callmemaybe #haveaquickie #thehappycelebrant #microwedding #fuck2020
13.01.2022 Yesterday was my first anniversary, together with my love! Can't believe it's already been a year! I love this man soooo much. He's cheeky, hilarious, supportive and completely full of love! I couldn't wish for any more.
12.01.2022 Thoughts on my new 'Mega-Awesome Super-Cool Naming Day Extravaganza!' official certificate..? So far, I've helped celebrate and welcome two babies into the world - interestingly, both times for gorgeous couples I've also previously married! Can promise this is not your average Baby Naming Ceremony. ... Huge thanks to @travsyd for making this certificate look waaaay more awesome than my first few drafts! (Also, it's sightly cropped to fit Insta.)
12.01.2022 Please, share some love with two very dear friends of mine, who I can't wait to marry today!! Courtney and I have been friends since we met in high school, in 1995. Years later, we lived in Scotland together, and she's the one friend who's been in my life the longest! I've known Ian for just a couple of years, but but during this time he's been the kindest, most lovely, calm and engaging person ever! ... I love these two wonderful people!! PS. @norahheadlighthouse is a gorgeous spot to get married!
12.01.2022 Huge thanks to Tara from @dancingwithher for sharing her knowledge on being an LGBTQ+ inclusive wedding vendor!! Despite being part of this community, I was happy to learn a few new things during this masterclass that I hadn't previously considered. I am a judgement-free wedding professional, who is constantly working towards a more inclusive environment for all people. ... Thanks again, Tara! Xx
10.01.2022 Despite being in the thick of a COVID-19 nightmare, Pete and Mike have decided to go ahead with their ceremony today! The poor couple have been fielding calls all week from concerned friends and family, who are cancelling their attendance or just nervous about joining the celebration. But it's a small group, we'll be outside, and there'll be hand sanitizer. So, send your love and kindest thoughts to this couple on their special day! Xx
10.01.2022 There's only one artist whose views mirror mine so consistently - @lukejohnmatthewarnold, you've done it again! Fuck the cup!
09.01.2022 (Swipe to see more + see link in bio) So excited to learn that one of my couples is currently featured in the @hellomaymagazine blog!! It's my first time in this magazine!! Huge thanks and congratulations to @ninaclairephotographer for capturing these spectacular moments. (PS. Book her, she's Awesome!)... Also huge thanks and congratulations to Amelia and Declan for planning such a gorgeous wedding, and for their kind words about me! Lots of love to you both! Xxx @ North Head Sanctuary
08.01.2022 Sending out all the best pre-weekend vibes and love straight to you!!
07.01.2022 Up in Norah Head this weekend to marry two very dear friends of mine at this lighthouse!
06.01.2022 Kate and Chris wanted to keep their ceremony as brief as legally possible for them and their 100 guests, so we're skipping all readings, they're not saying any personal vows, and they're not exchanging rings. This is going to be the shortest and sweetest wedding ceremony I've ever performed!!
06.01.2022 HAPPY MARDI GRAS!! Also, HAPPY HOMECOMING DAY for my boyfriend, who's been working away at sea for a month!! Artwork by @lukejohnmatthewarnold. After chatting with the artist this morning, I found out this work is available as a sticker - my fridge is about to become extra fabulous!
04.01.2022 5REVIEW!! Thanks so much, Kieren Edds AKA @theknittingtradie!!
03.01.2022 Julia and Tim are the most awesome and chilled Bondi couple who I have the great pleasure of marrying today! Really looking forward to delivering this ceremony - it's a fun one! I think we'll be switching over to the wet weather plan, because Sydney isn't nearly as dry as we'd hoped for this morning. Send this lovely couple all of your love for today, and hope that the sun comes out for them! Xxx
03.01.2022 Custom pen reveal for Kiki and Matt's wedding today! "Look like a lady, party like a pimp!"
03.01.2022 In my happy place, writing a ceremony for an upcoming wedding.
02.01.2022 There's so much I want to share about this wedding, but Alex and Nat are very private people, so I'm just going to say how incredibly excited I am to be marrying the pair of them today, and sharing their wonderful and touching story with their family and friends!! Double-tap to send your love to these two glorious women!!
02.01.2022 Custom signing pen I made for today's Mega-Awesome, Super-Cool Naming Day Extravaganza! "Nobody puts Baby in the corner."
02.01.2022 COVID-19 UPDATE: As of Friday, the rules change again as restrictions continue to be eased around the country. Weddings can now have up to 10 guests in attendance, plus the couple and the Celebrant. This is perfect for couples looking for an excuse to not invite the entire extended family - just blame Covid! ... Call me and let's get you married before the rules change again.
02.01.2022 Today, I'm swapping the beach for the bush, and heading north-west to the luxurious, Italian-style private villa at @redleafwollombi, for the Tuscan-inspired country wedding ceremony of Nat and Chris! I've written this pair a really fun and engaging ceremony that I can't wait to share with their families and friends! Also, looking forward to working alongside industry leaders, such as @blumenthalphotography and @greyareaproduction!
02.01.2022 Champagne Showers with Nova + Rob, at the Chinese Gardens of Friendship! Yep, everyone and everything was dripping in sweet champagne after this big double spray - beautifully captured by Jeff from @cjpicture_au! Was the best way to end this love-filled micro-ceremony!! ... Photos: @cjpicture_au Venue: @chinesegardenoffriendshipsyd
