I'm a marriage celebrant.
We don't get many chances to celebrate what is important to us with all the key people in our lives in attendance.
Your wedding is one of the few days we get to do this. It should be flexible, creative, simple and original.
Let's celebrate together. I look forward to hearing your stories.

Claire and Jeremy Weddings at a lavender farm? Just a little bit magical don’t you think? Can you imagine that beautiful scent as you say your vows? Claire and Jeremy’s wedding is simply beautiful …
Hi Jason,
I hope you’re well and the summer wasn’t too hectic for you.
Firstly, Ben and I would like to thank you for a wonderful ceremony. It was absolutely perfect and just the way we had imaged. We have had many comments from friend to say that our ceremony was the best they had ever seen so thanks again.
I have included a few pictures for you. They are all low res but if you would like any in high res I am more than happy to supply them to you, just let me know.
Also, we have been asked to put our wedding in Melbourne Wedding & Bride. It will be featured in the July issue so keep a look out!
We’ll be sure to pass your name on to our friends.
Lauren & Ben
Dear Jason,
We both wanted to offer our sincerest thanks for you being a part of our wedding.
We were amazed at how much you picked up about us from our few meetings. The ceremony and what you had to say were both beautiful. We don’t think it could have been done any better - it couldn’t have been more us.
We’re sure you’ll laugh to hear that the father of the groom started his speech with ‘Kids, let me tell you the story of how I met your Mother.’
Anyway, we’re now 4 months and 30 days in to married life and it is going well - very well in fact, not sure what all the business is about the first 12 months being the hardest, if thats the case we’re going to have a very blessed life :)
We’ve attached some photos that we hoped you might like (including Sam’s shoes). Have included the ones that you star in and welcome you to use them on your website or however you may wish.
Thank you again so much, you really helped make our day great.
Kindest regards,
Samantha and Bernard Mackey
Hi Jason,
Dane and I just wanted to thank you for the PERFECT ceremony on Saturday. I can’t believe it’s all over already, the day went so quickly (I didn’t really believe it when people said so). Everything was exactly how we dreamt it and then some. We had a lot of lovely comments from friends and family about the ceremony so I think you may be seeing us yet again at some point :)
…
Anyway thank you yet again, we had a ball.

Hi Jason,
Hi Jason,
We absolutely loved the words you put together for our ceremony 27th October at Red Hill Lavender Farm. The way you conducted things was absolutely perfect - so romantic. We cannot believe what a fluke it was that you were free when our previous celebrant cancelled on us last minute! It was meant to be - you were just what we were looking for.
Thank you so much.
Jeremy and Claire
Dear Jason,
I want to thank you for doing the most fabulous job, making both of us and our guests feel so relaxed, the ceremony fun but meaningful and so very very special. You were absolutely perfect and I really enjoyed myself, despite everyone knowing know I’m called a cling clang (never spelt that before!!)! It continued to be a very special day, the weather held out and we were all warm enough till dusk, then we moved to the mill. Dinner and bush dance was a success, followed by wild moves on the dance floor till 4.30am! Then back to a very cold tent! Dress survived, despite being very dirty and I just survived another party day Sunday, although did hide in the house snoozing for a few hours. I have attached some pictures.
If you are ever over in Clifton Hill I’d love to take you for coffee, but if I don’t see you soon, continue being marvellous at what you do and all the best for the future.
Much love
Philippa and Hugo
Dear Jason,
Thank you for making our ceremony just how we wanted. Your guidance and trust helped us to create memories that we will forever reflect on with much happiness.

Hi Jason,
Thank you again for making our day so special. Your casual, relaxed and warming approach was just perfect. It was such a shame that you left so soon after the ceremony, we missed being able to thank you properly on the day
You are great at what you do :-)
cheers,
Laura & Brad
Hi Jason,
How are you???
I just wanted to send you a much belated thank you for our wedding ceremony, I apologise for waiting so long; we have been very busy since the wedding. I just wanted to express to you just how great you are. Not only was the ceremony perfect, short and sweet, but you made us feel really comfortable and it was such a pleasure dealing with you.
Thank you again,
Hannah xoox
Hi Jason
So, what happens now?
Kidding… We are back from two very enjoyable days in Daylesford! Thank you
so much for marrying us, we really found the perfect person - from the
beginning you knew exactly what we wanted and we had confidence in you
looking after us right up to the day! You made the process so easy for us -
from answering quick questions early, being very clear about what you needed
from us and what we would need to do on the day. You were seriously the best
wedding-related person we dealt with during the entire organising process
and we are so lucky that our friends Pat and Russell recommended you! Mac
even commented that we were so comfortable around you that it felt like you
were one of the guests!!
Wow, that turned into a near essay… sorry about that, you’ve probably
heard it many times before! Please thank your partner again for letting you
marry us on your anniversary! Hope Kylie was fun! (You were going to Kylie,
right?! Or did I make that up…)
Anyway… now for the actual question: name change stuff… I think you had
suggestions on what order to do it in and how? :D
Thanks again for all your help :)
Chelsea and Mac
Dear Jason,
Dear Jason,
Apologies for taking so long to get in touch after the wedding - we’ve just gotten home from our honeymoon and 8 weeks backpacking in Africa.
We though you did a brilliant job as our celebrant. You were warm, relaxed, engaging & professional.
Thank you for marrying us. We had the most amazing perfect time and were very pleased with the short but sweet ceremony and grateful for your guidance.
Best wishes,
Laura & Patch
Dear Jason,
We’d like to say a very big Thank you to you for the wonderful ceremony you performed.
We had many compliments and everyone said you did such a lovely job.
Thank you for sharing in our special day and making our ceremony so relaxed and enjoyable.
xoxo
Hi Jason,
We just wanted to drop you an email to say thank you so much - I don’t think our day would have been anywhere near as calm, fun, and memorable without you. Many people commented on how great the ceremony was and you were, and we just felt so at ease and relaxed in your capable hands :)
A special thank you also for coming and checking in on me when I forgot my vows! Your words centered and calmed me and were just what I needed at that moment.
I only wish you could have stayed and partied on with us! Thank you so much, and see you in a couple of weeks at Nikki and Daniel’s wedding!! Looking forward to seeing you both again!
Leish and Phil Hobson (:D :D :D)

Hi Jason,
Thank you for looking after us and helping to make our wedding ceremony very personal and relaxed. It was exactly what we wanted.
Thank you so much

Dear Jason,
As I said on my phone message, I missed you at the end of yesterday’s
proceedings, and so couldn’t tell you then how very much I appreciated what
you did for us. Thank you so much. You did a great job, and all the family
were very pleased with you, and with me for finding you.
I apologise for not discussing payment with you, and I am very grateful for,
and not a little embarrassed by, your kind offer of a discount. We would be
very happy to pay your standard fee, but would accept with gratitude your
kindness if you insist.
You could send the invoice to me, though I suppose the formal wording would
be to “The Estate of Dr J M Gardiner (deceased)”, c/o me (address below).
Once again, many thanks, for your kind words and for your good work, and I
look forward to catching up again on a less stressful occasion.

Hi Jason,
Two months have already passed since we got married! How time flies.
We have often thought about how wonderful our wedding day was and how fantastic the ceremony was.
You were simply awesome. From the preparation all the way through to the signing of the register. You somehow managed to keep us relaxed and having a look back at the photos confirms how much we enjoyed ourselves and this was in no small way due to you.
Thank you so much for all you did for us. You managed to capture us in your words and we will always remember that perfect moment.
Take Care
John & Nadia
Hi Jason,
A big thank-you for being part of a successful and beautiful wedding day. The ceremony was conducted beautifully, we were both extremely happy with it. Both Luciano and myself had a lot of positive comments on how romantic and tasteful the ceremony was. Again thank you.
As promised I’ve attached a couple of pics for you of the day.
Regards
Luciano and Rose Giannini
