OVERVIEW

My go-to ceremony style is very relaxed, yet entirely professional, where I aim to make you guys feel as comfortable as possible while we're up there in front of your nearest and dearest.

Oh Hey!

I'm Mark, and I'm an Authorised Marriage Celebrant based in Singleton, WA.

If you're after a celebrant who will feel like a mate right from the beginning of the process, then feel free to contact me and organise a really casual catch up to talk through the whole process and simply get to know each other.

I'll then carry this relaxed (yet professionally thorough) approach all the way through to the ceremony itself, where I aim to make you and your guests feel as comfortable as possible with plenty of banter, laughs and of course: love!

About

I'm 38, born and raised in Melbourne, and I now call Singleton (WA) home, with my beautiful wife, Mellissa, and our 4 year old daughter, Elle. I've previously been working as a singer/actor all over the world for more than 10 years, from cruise ships to Universal Studios in Singapore and much more! I'm a massive sports fan and also have a diploma in Sports Journalism. I'm pretty calm and laid back, love to have a laugh and pride myself on applying these traits to my work.

FAQ

  • Firstly, get in contact with me and see if I'm available on your big day, let me know where your ceremony is, and I'll get back to you asap with a quote.
  • If you like what you see, we can organise an obligation free meeting (face to face, skype/facetime, or phone call) so we can all get to know each other, discuss ceremony ideas, and you can decide if I'm the right celebrant for you.
  • A few days later I'll touch base with you to see how you're going, and if you decide to lock me in...after quietly celebrating the excitement of getting to marry another awesome couple...I'll get a few of the formalities over and done with:
  • I'll send you an email with an invoice (deposit due within 7 days of confirming booking) that will officially lock in the date for me, a template for you to fill out that will allow me to transfer all your details to a number of documents that I must submit, and some information about our next meeting(s).
  • We'll organise a time to get together and sign the "Notice of Intended Marriage". This must happen, at the very latest, 1 month prior to the wedding date. *note: if we are unable to meet up in time and I can't witness the signing of this document, I can give you a list of people qualified to do so.
  • We'll also go through the structure of your ceremony, and I'll take notes about "your story" - the fun part! This is the part that really personalises the ceremony for you guys (amongst a heap of other things - the options are endless!). 
  • After this, I will go away and put together the first draft of your ceremony (you'll receive this 2 weeks before the wedding day at the latest).
  • We will work through things until it is perfect for you.
  • As close to the wedding date as possible, we'll meet up one more time to sign one more document (this can also be done if we choose to have a rehearsal for the ceremony).
  • Then I'll see you there, at the end of the aisle, on the big day! I'll perform your personalised ceremony, we'll sign 3 different documents (you'll need 2 witnesses as well - anyone over 18 that is attending the wedding), and then present you to your family and friends as a married couple!
  • In the build up to the day and behind the scenes, I'll be getting all the legal stuff covered and liasing with you -unlimited phone calls, emails, text- about all the little things we can do to make your day as amazing as possible.
  • After the wedding, I will immedietely send off the appropriate documents to Births, Deaths and Marriages, and then will assist you in applying for your official marriage (you can use this to change your name etc.)

Yes! It's portable and wireless, so it'll be perfect for any destination! I'll be using a wireless mic and can even operate your music (bridal party entrance, during signings etc) through the speaker too.

Absolutely! There will be an added cost, however.

For travel more than 100km (round trip) from my home in Singleton, it will be $25 per 50km extra (for both ceremony and rehearsal).

I also travel interstate - we can discuss arrangements if this is required.

I arrive 45-60 minutes before the scheduled start of the ceremony to set up and prepare.

After the ceremony, I will usually leave my PA system set up for another 10-15 minutes, just in case you or your photographer for example need me to make any announcements. I will then attempt to inconspicuously touch base with you both, congratulate you, and get out of your hair (I'll also ensure that your commerative marriage certificate makes it into the hands of a very close family member to look after while you are being showered in congratulations).

Mark was seriously the easiest and most engaging celebrant we had the pleasure to work with in getting us hitched! He prides himself on being a mate first, celebrant second which really makes the process less daunting and free flowing when getting into the nitty gritty legal forms and details. Mark genuinely cares for the couples he works with and remembers the small details in the relationship. The custom story he creates to share with those at the ceremony encapsulates the bride & grooms relationship so well and helping him create that story was such an easy, casual experience and was all the better having been done over a beer. If anyone would need to have a celebrant to officiate their ceremony, I wouldn't hesitate to suggest Mark. He is an incredible person and made the day work very smoothly for us.

Oh my goodness you guys!!! This is just so so lovely of you. I'm so glad we were able to create the vibe that you wanted, and thanks so much for being so welcoming and allowing me to be part of your special day. Congrats again you two!!! xo

Mark was honestly the most amazing celebrant we could ever have hoped for. From our first meeting through to the wedding day he kept our minds at ease. He truly feels like a long lost friend. Mark calmed all the nerves before walking down the aisle and he made us both feel so relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire ceremony. We’ve both had so many wonderful comments about how great he was on the day. There are truly no words to express how grateful we both are for having him as our celebrant. We highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for someone for their wedding. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you so much Mark!

Hey guys!!! Oh wow thanks a million for the awesome review. So kind of you, I appreciate it so much. It was my absolute pleasure - you guys did so so well and I had such a great time getting you hitched :) Congratulations again!!!

Mark was the best celebrant that we could have asked for for our wedding day. From start to finish, his process was so easy and smooth. We were meant to get married in 2021, but due to Covid we had to postpone. The rescheduling was so easy and Mark kept in touch with us as we approached our new wedding date. His procedure and advice was clear and easy to follow, he really did make everything so easy and smooth. He was fun during our chats and getting to know each other, he even went over both of our vows to make sure we were on the same page, which was such a relief. The printing of the vows on the labeled card was great as well, one less thing we had to worry about remembering on the day. Thank you so much for officiating our marriage, Mark!

Friendly and easy to get alone with. Has given us ideas for things we wouldn’t haven even thought of ourselves. Reasonably priced.

Mark made the whole process effortless and fun. He was always available for questions, explained each step and listened attentively while we told our dorky early relationships stories. He worked with us to create our day plan, script, acknowledgment of country and kept the wedding guests calm while a certain unnamed bridesmaid had a shoe malfunction. Our guests we're very impressed by the way you spoke through the ceremony and how you MC'd the reception. Thank you Mark for making our day easy, fun and an unforgettable moment.
