Make the Wedding Ceremony the Main Event!

...Because the Party can start with the Promises!!!!

Let’s be honest - when some people picture a wedding ceremony, they often still imagine the bit before the party. The serious bit you sit through before you get to the fun and frolicking.

But here’s the truth: The party can start with the promises!

Your wedding ceremony can be fun.  It can be personal.  And it can absolutely be the part of the day everyone remembers - the bit your mates rave about for weeks.

Why the ceremony should be the main event:

It’s the reason we’re all there! The heart of the whole day. You’re two awesome individuals… coming together in front of all your favourite people… promising to be awesome together for the whole wild ride ahead!

That deserves so much more than a generic script with a couple of awkward readings, right?

This is where a celebrant comes in. A celebrant-led wedding lets you make the ceremony yours. It can be funny, heartfelt, weird, joyful - or all of the above. It reflects your personalities, your relationship, and your vibe. The energy you bring in those first 30 minutes can totally set the tone for the rest of the day!

So why wait until the reception for the party to start? Let’s start it here.

“But aren’t ceremonies supposed to be formal and serious?”

Only if that’s your thing.

Time to bust a few wedding ceremony myths...

• “We can’t show our geeky side in the ceremony.” 

  You absolutely can. Fan of Star Wars? Let's line up the light saber exit.

• “It has to be sentimental and serious - even though we’re usually chaotic, sarcastic and slightly feral.”

   Nope. You can have heart and humour. You don’t have to pretend to be different people just because there are chairs in rows.

• “We’re not that traditional, but don’t know what else we can do.” 

  This is where a celebrant comes in. No templates. No generic vibes. Just something genuinely personal and totally you.

Here are a few things you can do:

• Love music? Let's break into Massaoke mid-ceremony. Why not?

  
  

• All about your dog? Get them involved as your ring bearer. Bonus points for a flower crown.

  
  

• Big on festivals or tequila-fuelled weekends away? Let’s do a unity tequila shot ritual. Salt, shot, lime, marriage.

  
  

• Into Lego? Let's build that in - literally or metaphorically.

The ceremony can be the highlight of the day

The laughter. The tears. The "oh my god, that was so them!" reactions. That’s what we’re aiming for.
