OVERVIEW
If you’re on the hunt for a warm, friendly, but professional marriage celebrant to officiate your wedding, you can’t go past Queensland’s Ryan Black. A Gold Coast local, this personable celebrant is exceptional at crafting beautiful wedding ceremonies that are as unique as each of his couples.
A married man of 20 years, Ryan knows what makes an engaging ceremony: personalisation, confidence, and details, details, details. So first, Ryan will get to know you both over a hot coffee or sneaky wine to discern what makes you a one-of-a-kind couple. Then he’ll craft a fairytale-esque ceremony script that’s both emotional and entertaining - just what you want in a dreamy wedding ceremony.
“Ryan made both my partner and I feel so relaxed and made the whole process so easy. During the ceremony, he made everyone cry with happy tears as well as laugh. We wouldn’t have wanted anyone else standing up there on our wedding day. Ryan was super flexible and accommodating with what we wanted our ceremony to look like.” Madison

Mr & Mrs Cox, Thank you so much. Absolutely loved being part of your day. You two were honestly such a pleasure to work with from start to finish. So much fun, so chilled, and so trusting of me to just do my thing. And I have to give a special mention Ant who was genuinely invested in the whole process… always makes my job even better! It was an absolute privilege to be trusted with both the ceremony and the MC duties and to see the whole day through with you. Thanks again for having me along for the ride. Bloody awesome couple, bloody awesome day! Big love.

Hi there. We don't want to have kids at our wedding, but I also don't want to offend my sister. I adore my nieces but we want a particular vibe at our wedding. Any suggestions?
Ryan Black & MC
This is a great question. Firstly, congratulations on deciding what you want on your special day!
Your wedding day is one of the few times in your life where you get to dictate exactly what you want. If you're wanting a certain vibe, and feel that it will be achieved without children attending, then that is all you need to say. Honesty is key. Tell her that you both want for everyone to be truly present throughout the ceremomy and feel that it can best be achieved without the possible distraction of children. Whether they be hers, or someone else's.
I am an extremely proud parent, and absolutely love my kids, but trust me when I say that my wife and I love nothing more than going to a wedding kid free. It is an opportunity to let your hair down and have a great time. You may find that your sister will be more than supportive of your decision.
I hope this helps. Happy planning and I wish you an awesome wedding day!

Mr & Mrs Princi, Wow… what a review! Thank you both so much for such incredibly kind words. It genuinely means a lot. You two were an absolute joy to work with, and I can't tell you how much I appreciated the trust you placed in me throughout the entire process. But what I loved just as much was how invested you both were in it all. You genuinely embraced the opportunity to create something that was uniquely yours, and I think that made all the difference. Getting to know you both, sharing a few laughs along the way, and then bringing it all together on the day was such a privilege. And knowing that your ceremony resonated with not only you two, but your family and friends as well, is honestly one of the greatest compliments I could receive. Thank you again for allowing me to play a part in your day. You're both absolute legends, and I wish you and your beautiful family all the very best for everything that lies ahead. Big love.
