OVERVIEW
What You’ll Love About Working with Weddings by the Beard For Your Melbourne, Dandenong Ranges, Yarra Valley Wedding:
“You made it so simple and easy, we didn't have to worry about a thing!” - Claudia and Aaron
Lachie starts by getting to know your kind of love story: the moments worth retelling, the people who matter most, the traditions you want to include, and the ones you’re keen to leave behind. His ceremonies are written individually, with room for laughter, familiar wording, personal vows, music, aisle moments, and whatever else feels right for you. The result is warm, relaxed, and full of character, with Lachie guiding the process so the ceremony feels easy instead of overwhelming.
He also keeps the official side beautifully under control. Legal paperwork, BDM lodgement, a PA system, microphone, ceremony music, planning support, and a pre-wedding chat are all part of the experience. Couples can also book a legals-only or elopement ceremony for something simple and streamlined, while his MC service is ideal if you want that same upbeat, organised energy carrying through the reception. Entrances, speeches, cake cutting, dancing, games, announcements, he’ll keep things moving so you can stay happily in the moment.

About
I'm a Marriage Man! I love to talk love with anyone that will listen, I'm based out of Camberwell. If its warm, you'll find me sitting in the garden with my Pup, Pippi trying to find the perfect words to use for each of my couples ceremonies. If its cold, on the couch (still with Pip) with a cuppa. I will never copy and paste a ceremony! In my spare time I play board games and dnd and madly propagate houseplants.

FAQ
No! Leave all that to me.
I'll manage all the paperwork, all you need to do is show me some documents (Passport/Birth Cert ect) when i'm filling it out and I'll lodge all the paperwork with BDM for you!
I even buy every one of my couples the final Marriage Certificate rather than make you wait and buy it yourself!
50% is a booking fee taken to secure your day with me. I take that day off my calendar. (I'll never do more than one wedding a day, that day is YOURS)
The other 50% is paid 1 month before the wedding for the ceremony itself.
I'm friends with some incredble celebrants, if disaster strikes and I can't be at your wedding, first, I'll cry. Then; I'll get one of my friends to rock up and perform the ceremony for you.
This is why I break my payment in half, so that I have something to give to my mates for their time.
(I have never had to do this and fingers crossed I never will but its better to be safe than sorry)
Not if you don't want to,
I have a Vow Pack I give to all my couples, it has about 150 different vows I have written or stolen from media, or my previous couples have be gracious enough to share with me after their wedding.
Its a great launching point if you are writing your own, its also there if you want to grab the best bits and have it all built for you!
