Your (actually fun) Melbourne Marriage Celebrant + MC
Nice to meet you!
My name is Precious, I’m a Marriage Celebrant + MC, and I think that weddings should be fun, uplifting and full of emotion.
Whether you’re having a big day with 150 of your nearest and dearest, or just you, your partner and two witnesses, your celebration should still feel like you. It should reflect your sense of humour, your style and the way that you love each other and should balance the happy and emotional beautifully.
About half of the weddings I conduct include at least one person who identifies as LGBTQIA+ and I pride myself on being a safe space, taking a non judgemental approach to love and weddings.
People often view wedding ceremonies as the part of a wedding that you have to sit through before you are able to get to the good bits.
But what if that was different?
What about instead of stealing yourself through the marshmallowy idealised hyperbole, you had a ceremony that was fun, uplifting and made you smile, laugh and cry?
That’s where I come in.
Ceremonies with me are a genuine mix of emotion and humour that bring out the best in both of you and your relationship. I focus on what is important to you, what you two are like, and bring the elements that make you you (your sense of humour, your unique story) to the front to create a one of a kind, freaking wonderful ceremony that makes people smile from the moment it starts.
From there about half of my couples ask me to stay on and be their MC for their reception. This means they have someone else run the show so they can fully soak up one of the best days of their lives.
Your Celebrant and MC, from the aisle to the dance floor
David and Nathalia were married at the gorgeous Immerse Yarra Valley. Thank you to Carlo at Lunar Red Films for capturing their day.

Fill in my enquiry form below with as much detail as possible, I’ll let you know if I’m free, and we’ll find a time to chat.

1. Enquire with me
How you met, what makes you laugh, the stories your friends won’t stop bringing up. I ask the questions that get to the good stuff, and I’ll help you with your vows too.
2. Tell me everything
The week of your wedding, we jump on a Zoom and I read you your whole ceremony. Not quite right? I’ll keep working on it until it’s perfect.
3. Hear it before the day
I handle the legal bits, keep the ceremony moving and make sure you actually soak it all in. Booked me as your MC too? I’ll take it from there all the way to the dance floor.
4. Show up and feel everything
“Precious truly lives up to her name”
“She is a precious human being, a terrific MC and a true tour-de-force. Precious was both our celebrant and MC for our wedding and we felt so safe in her hands. She gave us space to enjoy the process from planning through to the day itself, but when needed, offered her extensive wisdom to help us avoid any pitfalls or unwise moves. Precious also really took an effort to make sure that we were well looked after on the wedding day itself and that most importantly we actually had something to eat and drink (which can often be difficult).
In terms of the MC-ing and officiating, Precious was able to provide a ceremony and reception that was warm, intimate, funny and uplifting. She clearly is adept at reading couples and tailoring her delivery to the wants of the couple - and that’s a talent!
We are truly grateful for Precious and think the world of her! Do yourself a favour and seriously consider engaging her for your event/wedding!”
Love Stories
The first date that almost didn’t happen - Nick & Lara’s Story
Some couples have a love story that sounds like a film. Nick and Lara’s sounds more like a pub tale that got wildly out of hand, and I mean that as the highest compliment.
As their Melbourne Celebrant, I had the joy of telling their story at their wedding at Panama Dining Room, and it remains one of my favourite ceremonies to date.
On paper, their paths should never have crossed… - Georgina & Bastiaan’s story
I have married a lot of couples, and every so often a wedding comes along that I am still thinking about weeks later.
Bastiaan and Georgina's day at Inglewood Estate is one of those. Between the man bun, the puppy named Cooper, and a proposal that circled all the way back to Oslo, this is one of my favourite love stories to tell, and I get to tell it for a living.
With a swipe and a brave little “Hi!'“
Some couples simply light up a room the moment you meet them, and Sophie and Meg were exactly that.
Set against the rolling hills of The Farm Yarra Valley, with over 100 of their favourite people gathered together, a cocktail dress code, and a love story that started on Tinder and ended up including a dog named Scout, theirs was a celebration with joy woven into every single detail.

I recognise that I live and work on the lands of the Woi Wurrung people and pay my respects to their Elders past and present.
Always was, always will be.
