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.

  • Hi Simon,

    Tim and I are still on cloud nine after reminiscing about the perfect ceremony you created. It was everything we always dreamt of and is something that we will remember for the rest of our lives.

    We can’t thank you enough for all your support and guidance throughout the whole experience, especially your commitment to travel all the way to the Hunter Valley for our wedding. Thank you also for keeping Tim calm whilst he was waiting for me at the alter! I instantly felt more relaxed when I saw you waiting outside the chapel for us.

    The day wouldn’t have been so perfect without you. I’ll send you through some photos of the ceremony when we get them back. If you are ever in Newcastle please don’t be a stranger!

  • We just wanted to say a huge thank you for making our wedding day the most memorable and perfect day ever! You did such a fantastic job, everyone commented on how professional you were and how relaxed you made us and the kids feel. Thank you again for being part of our fairytale!

  • Brett and I would just like to thank you once again for being the celebrant for our wedding at Boat Harbour Beach. You were above and beyond all of our expectations. It was obvious that you made a real effort to get to know us individually and as a couple, but what really stood out to me is that you REALLY listened to what we wanted to portray about us and our love. You set the mood beautifully and everyone has commented on what a beautiful, fun and romantic ceremony it was. Thank you for giving us exactly what we wanted and we feel any other couple will be lucky to have you as their celebrant. We can’t recommend you anymore highly.

  • After meeting Simon for the first time, we had no doubt in our minds that he was the celebrant for us. Simon was fantastic to work with and put our stressed minds at ease during our ceremony preparation. He was relaxed but well prepared and we found him to be available to answer any questions we had. He was able to keep everyone well entertained while the bride was unexpectedly delayed and our guests thoroughly enjoyed his humour. Not only did we think he was an excellent celebrant, we also received numerous compliments from our guest. If anyone is looking to hire Simon as their celebrant we cannot rate him highly enough. We only wish we could give him a 6th star. We cannot thank Simon enough for being a part of our special day.

  • 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.

  • Simon made our day super special and personal.  Our ceremony was exactly how we wanted it and more!  Our guests complimented Simon about how well he conducted our ceremony.  Best celebrant on the Mid North Coast!
