Jake Smith - The most highly reviewed marriage celebrant in Australia.

We gather at weddings to celebrate people we love making an incredible commitment… But it usually feels like (during the ceremony at least) people have gathered to listen to a stranger read a thing! A good wedding should be captivating, unmistakably about the couple and bring a smile to your face. If you happen to shed a tear, it’s because you’re emotional, not because you want to leave!

It's a celebrants job to make sure the wedding feels awesome…

not boring, not awkward, not cheesy!

Bad weddings feel disjointed, irrelevant and unpleasant; perhaps you've been to one? You may have been uncomfortable, confused or cringing through the whole thing!

What’s terrifying and tragic is that bad weddings still happen… all the time!!

What makes a Ceremony great?!

Great weddings engage the couple and their guests right from the get-go.

No one gets bored because people are actually smiling... and crying (but not because they wish they were somewhere else!).

At great weddings the people getting married are ALWAYS more important than the celebrant reading their thing.

There's eye-contact at great weddings, a little laughter and maybe an example or two. Ultimately the guests feel like they go on a journey with the couple. Because the ceremony was actually about them.

I'm humbled that I get to work with couples so closely on a day that's so significant. I don't think I'll ever take that for granted.
