OVERVIEW
Jay Bingle is a self-confessed love story addict, a weakness he turned into a strength by starting his own celebrant business, Married by Jay. Travelling all over SE Queensland to deliver heartfelt bespoke ceremonies, Jay is a vibrant and creative professional who crafts ceremonies full of fun, tears, laughter, and romance. Jay is well-known for his immaculate presentation and abundant enthusiasm.
Some celebrants make an impression on you from the moment you meet them, and Jay Bingle from Married by Jay is one of those few. Cutting a memorable figure in Cuban boots, timber bowties, and three-piece suits, Jay is a quirky and fun-loving celebrant who enjoys bringing the laughter and the tears to each ceremony he crafts.
“What a celebrant! He just went above and beyond for us and was so kind and helpful! alot of things changed due to covid and he was so accommodating and reassuring. He made our ceremony so personal and fun that it didn't seem like we had hired a celebrant but rather a friend.” Jaymee B
Based in Brisbane, your journey with Jay begins with drinks and snacks at a lounge-room picnic, chatting about your relationship and the journey you’ve undertaken together. A series of thoughtful questions gives Jay all the information he needs to write a ceremony that is personal and authentic; the more details, the more creative he can be!
Married by Jay has several wedding packages to choose from, ranging from legals-only and elopements to elaborate experiences. His top-tier package, The Ducks Nuts, includes vow writing support, unlimited support, and all the legal documentation taken care of on your behalf. He has also created an online portal that contains information about all of the legal elements, couples questionnaires, and insider tips and tricks to make sure your wedding day runs smoothly.

Highlights of Married by Jay:
“At first we only needed a celebrant but we were so impressed and trusting of Jay that we asked him if could be our MC as well! We couldn’t be happier with Jays service leading up to the wedding and on the day. Jay was so supportive throughout the entire process especially with how Covid-19 impacted the wedding. Jay was by our side no matter what plans had changed.” Nadi Han
About
I'm Jay that vibrant, creative celebrant with a quirky side who loves every bit of what I do. But before I fell in love with being a celebrant and MC, I spent years as a hotel and restaurant manager and the last 10 as a Bank Manager. I got the chance to marry my soul mate in 2019 and loved every moment of it, so I decided in 2020 to go fully time, leave my career and focus on a passion and well it is and has been amazing.

FAQ
Great question and lets be honest after it is all said and done there is one more important thing to do.. legally change your name! I take care of it all and guide you on government time frames too for things like passports and Drivers licences.
On the day you recieve a hand written display marriage certificate too.
I do I travel with the BOSE S1. This speaker and microphone set up gives me amazing clear sound and access to bluetooth for all the music you may need and videographers love it, because they can plug strait in and record direct fro the mic.
I believe ipads and tech have a place and are so 2019 in wedding ceremonies. I print my ceremonies into childrens books, never covering the story up so you can read the book to all of the little people later on. If you dont want a book thats ok, I have a customer made book I have everything in.
Your Notice of Intended marriage must be submitted to me with min. 31 days notice and maximum 18 months.
However as we have all learnt sometimes we need it asap and we have ways of trying to get a fast track from the attorney general
Well after meditation and a massage :-) I wish, no I love to turn up early, to check on you both, meet and greet, ensure the space is perfect and everything is in place. If someone is waiting down the front with me I like to do a pep talk, have the crowd involved in selfies and then wait. Nothing beats those nervous moments of silence.
After I hang around to help your photographer etc and eventually unless Im staying on as MC I disappear into the afternoon.
I sure bloody do, it is actually my favourite. Because I get to meet and greet and go though the ceremony with you and then moving into the reception you and your guests have one familiar face, soemone who has the run sheet and isnt uncle Barry with a few too many drinks. I also work with the venue to keep things on track and if and when things happen Im there to make it seamless.
For example: Mains are served 10 minutes before speeches, Im in moving things around or looking after the people getting up to speak, because they are nervous and wont eat before. Back to the oven for 10 minutes until they have survived.
