Married By Luke

If you’re looking for a fun, professional marriage celebrant with a bit of pizazz — someone out of the ordinary in the best possible way, then you’ll love Brisbane-based Luke. Luke de Gee — the owner of Married by Luke — became a Queensland celebrant after his own magical wedding and has made it his mission to help couples celebrate their love on one of the most important days of their lives. As such, he thoroughly helps couples plan their ceremony according to their tastes and preferences.

Luke is interested in each couple’s unique story: how they met, what their relationship is like, why they think each other is ‘the one’ — it’s clear he is very passionate about love. He gathers these details through a questionnaire, then crafts a stunning ceremony script of an exceptional standard, and when officiating ceremonies, Luke is just as capable. Luke beautifully balances sentiment with humour, ensuring guests are amused and touched in equal measure. Confident and entertaining, charismatic Luke also offers to perform MC duties.

"My partner and I knew from the first time that we met Luke that he was 100% the person we wanted to marry us. He was friendly, energetic yet completely professional, and he knew the answers to all our questions. Every time we met with him, we felt like we were catching up with an old friend. On the wedding day, it felt like our good friend and someone that we had known for years was marrying us." — Vladica

"Our wedding was more than we could have ever wished for, and a big part of that is thanks to Luke. We had a long time to prep our wedding with him (about 18 months), and throughout the entire process, we really felt that no stone was left unturned. We felt very comfortable leaving our wedding day in his capable hands, and boy did he deliver. Having him as both the celebrant and MC was fantastic — he did an amazing job in both roles, so definitely look at that combo package!" — John
