"JC was the MC (yep MCJC) at our wedding, and she was amazing. Not only did she keep our wedding fun and fresh, but she also helped James with writing his vows. He was really nervous about them, and JC was amazing. JC totally got what we were asking for, nailed the high energy and fun mood we wanted, and kept our friends talking about our wedding months later. She's a legend!" — Laura

Fun-loving, rug-cutting, axe-throwing marriage celebrant who loves getting to know rad humans like you through what I do. I love dressing to the nines for your big day and wearing my PJs while I prepare the script for it. I've always loved the stage and public speaking, but what I love more is giving you the spotlight and shining its brightness on the superstars that you are!

Thank you so much Lauren for your lovely review! Taking the time to get to know you both did not feel like work at all as I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I cannot begin to express my gratitude to you both for saying "I do" to my celebrant, MC and dance lesson services. It was an honour getting to be part of your amazing day!
