Your Celebrant

I think love is friendship set on fire… How cool is it when you meet a human, fall in love and then spend the rest of your life hanging out with your best friend?!

So let’s grab some marshmallows and share our stories around a campfire!

Have you ever had that feeling that you are meant to be doing something? Well that’s how I feel about being a Celebrant.  I’m not an artist, I cannot draw or paint. I’m not great at technology (sometimes), I’m an average cook and don’t really bake.  But my creative trick is I can write, I can put words together.

My imagination doesn’t stretch to a book but in short, simple pieces – like a ceremony, just for you. Helping you find the right words to say when you want to say I do.

I don’t think I will ever get sick of two people standing there, telling each other how much they mean to one another, how much they love each other, care for each other and support each other. Truth be told it’s the best part of the whole day.

“Seeing two people, such as yourselves fall in love, and wanting to spend the rest of your life with them, and declare your love for one another through marriage is one of life’s greatest, and simplest pleasures!”

More About Me

I was born in 88, live in Brisbane, drink long black coffee, my wine of choice is Shiraz. I love earrings and my music taste resembles a broken juke box. I love meeting new people and could talk under water matched by my incredible memory and listening skills! That sums me up. My purpose though, is to get to know you! I want to hear all about how you met, what you’re most memorable moment was, and the quirks that bring you together and complement each other!  I’ll take all of those words and put them together into a memorable, joyous, fun ceremony.

I can be the big sappy romantic at heart, or I can be the down to earth cool chick, and I do believe strongly in marriage, but that doesn’t mean you have to have a dull ceremony. The ceremony part should be heartfelt and genuine. It’s the important part, the part that will leave a lasting impression for years to come.

They say loving helps you live longer, it makes you happier, it lights up your soul – well if I get to give love and receive love and help others do this also, then I say ‘let’s get out the glitter and sprinkle it all around!’

You might find it difficult piecing how you feel into a ceremony, or too shy to say it in front of everyone – or heck, not even sure of what to say. This is where I come in, I’m extremely intuitive and I believe I can help bring out what it is you want to say, but don’t know how to say it. Help you express your feelings, for you aren’t being judged, It’s a safe space to tell your loved one, what really is inside. Because at the end of the day. It is just those two standing there, telling each other. I love you. Then end.

Cute little legals only ceremony at Shorncliffe.. That’s right, I live near the water so I’m happy to do your paperwork close by. 152 legal words, some personal vows. And….. Married!
New Branding, who dis? It’s been a loooooong time coming. After a few years in the shadows and quietly hiding in the background with a slower pace, and fewer weddings the last couple years. Thanks to some little humans, I’m back and tak
It poured rain on their wedding day, and it poured rain on their first anniversary…. It’s double good luck, right? Happy Anniversary Bri & Shahzeb @chalk_photography_ @branellhomestead
Love letters the morning after. Good morning beautiful lady, We just wanted to write and tell you how truly grateful we are for the PHENOMENAL work you put into our wedding. Everyone mentioned how amazing you were, and they aren’t wrong. Yo
Love letters: Hi Ella, thank you so much for being part of our special day on Sunday. You captured our essence so perfectly and everyone was commenting on how beautiful the ceremony was. We really appreciate it 💕 Taylah & Travis @prestonpea
Yesterday was a wet weather dream. Making the call on the wet weather plan earlier in the week. Everything went off with a ‘hitch’. Even the adorable ring bearer Apollo the Golden Retriever was the most well behaved Golden Retriever I hav
Occasionally my jokes hit the mark. But my ideal ceremony is one that best suits who you are as a couple. And my couples are awesome, and always up for a laugh. 🥰 @gabbinbarhomestead @ellathecelebrant
They met at work, she was the adorably cute, nervous and sometimes awkward. But Clayton handed in his resignation and thought I’ll try shoot my shot with Elly. And well, the best first date either of them had turned into endless dates and sleep
There is no such thing as ugly crying at your wedding. And we laughed, we cried, we drank, we danced. Bobby & Brodie met when they were teens, and he was a big fan of hers. Fast forward a few years later when he thought he’d take his shot
No vows, no probs. If there was ever a cuter moment in the ceremony this had to be it. We have no idea what Mitch said to Jake, but it probably wasn’t PG rating. In literally a sea of florals, Mitch whispered something ‘romantic’
Here’s to the Lovers! A friend (well my favourite barista whom I adore and love) challenged me to get back to insta and show ya’ll some love on Valentines Day. It’s been a hot minute! In the past 12 months I have married 30 couple
And just like that… 12 months past, real damn quick! #latergram

“After we got engaged, we knew we wanted Ella to be our celebrant. She really takes the time to get to know you, and give you a special ceremony. It was great knowing we could trust her on what was important to us!”
