As one of Coffs Coast’s foremost marriage celebrants, I continually have the pleasure of marrying beautiful couples who travel to Coffs Harbour as their chosen destination wedding.  The Coffs Coast provides a sense of relaxation, great times, and excitement when you travel to our scenic wonderland for a wedding.  Regardless of how large or intimate the celebration is, without a doubt, your ceremony experience will be one to remember for a lifetime.

And Gareth and Shay were absolutely thrilled they made the decision to marry on the Coffs Coast.  Having visited the region many times previously, it was only natural that they chose the colourful Cubana Resort, Urunga to say ‘I do’.  Their ceremony (and the venue) was every bit a reflection of who they are as a couple, their incredible journey together, and their hopes for a future with each other by their side.  It was so much fun marrying them both, not to mention I will never forget Gareth walking down the aisle wearing his all-white outfit complete with a tall hat with his proud father by his side.

Shay shared with me “Thank you so much for your email and even more so for everything you did for us at our wedding. I was nervous when we were initially looking for a celebrant as I wasn’t sure how we’d be treated as a “same-sex” couple.

After meeting you, my concerns were quickly put to rest and you made both of us especially myself feel very at ease and relaxed. The ceremony was amazing, you engaged with all of our family and friends and so many of them commended you on how great you did at making it personable, light hearted, and fun, you really did help set the scene to what was an amazing, amazing night with many sore heads and magic memories”.

My absolute pleasure Shay.

  • Thank you for everything you did leading up to and during our ceremony.  Your friendly and confident approach made us feel very comfortable and at ease on the big day and you played a big part in that we just wanted to say thank you very much.

    Rohan and Simone

  • We would like to thank you for the great job you did at our beach wedding. You were so professional and caring about everything and everyone. You had all the equipment set up on the beach and everyone was able to hear you clearly. You made our day so special and stress free. We have been to a lot of weddings and the celebrants don’t come anywhere near your presentation. At the end of the ceremony everyone was commenting on how personal the ceremony was and how modern you presented yourself at the ceremony. We highly recommend having Simon for your wedding. As a celebrant you would not find a more professional, caring, honest, young and touching one like him. Thanks Simon.

    Angela and Lucas

  • We can’t thank you enough for making our wedding day so special. We truly appreciate the time you took getting to know us. Almost three months later and our guests still comment on how beautiful the ceremony was. We had such a fun day and you topped it off with your relaxed nature and great sense of humour.

    Sarah & Scott

  • Jordan and I truely didn’t realise how lucky we had scored until the beginning of our ceremony. Simon had ourselves and our guests in tears from laughter and love. He was personal, deep and truely understood how we wanted our ceremony to feel. Our day started at 28 degrees and finished at 45 degrees, however, no matter how hot it became Simon was professional and knew how to make ourselves and our guests feel at ease. Our guests raved about Simon throughout the night and still to this day, we receive compliments on his behalf. He helped to create an atmosphere that will stay with us forever and we cannot thank Simon enough for this. We highly recommend Simon to be a part of your special day.

    Erin & Jordan

  • Thank you for playing such a wonderful important role in our special day and starting our marriage.  We can not repay you enough for joining us in union but we will feel forever blessed that such an amazing, humourous and loving man helped us in our very beginnings.

    Libby & Mark

  • Hi Simon, we are on our honeymoon and remembering our wedding day. We cannot thank you enough for all that you did in making our ceremony special to us and the best everyone else has witnessed. Particularly our parents who doubted our decision for a civil celebrant – they loved every part of it! You exceeded our expectation and made us feel like we have known you all our lives. You calmed me and guided us all to make it a beautiful ceremony. Again, it was a great pleasure to have met you and shared the day with you.
