Jake was a perfect fit for us from the start. He is warm, kind and everything we wanted in a celebrant. Our ceremony was perfect as was Jakes help from the start of our journey until the end of the most perfect day, our wedding. Highly recommend Jake a million times over. Wish we could do it all again!
Jake was everything we wanted in our Celebrant and more. He communicated with us from our very first meeting, all the way up until our wedding day. His presence and environment he created for our ceremony was complimented by so many of our guests. Jake played such a huge part in making our day as amazing as it was. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Jake made our wedding so lighthearted, hilarious, meaningful and everything we could of hoped for. The day went so smoothly and all our guests can’t stop talking about Jake! I almost think they enjoyed him more than being at our wedding watching us get married! 😂😂😂 So thank you again Jake for everything that you did as our celebrant and MC to make our day so fabulous!
Jake was everything and more of what we wanted in a celebrant and MC, everyone is still raving about him! He kept it lighthearted, professional but also so personal, our guests could have sworn we had known him for years. He portrayed us and our relationship perfectly, there wasn’t a detail he didn’t miss! We couldn’t recommend Jake enough, as a celebrant and MC, we are so glad he was there to share the afternoon and evening with us, he assured we and our guests always felt at ease, especially during these COVID times. Thank you times a million Jake! You made getting married just that little bit more perfect :)
We chose Jake to marry us at our private elopement, and we could not be happier with our choice. He is a truly special celebrant who brought such positive energy to our day. He takes the time and effort to understand your story, so that he can make your ceremony unique and heartfelt. His advice and guidance in the lead up to the day, and on the day itself, was truly appreciated, and it was so comforting to have his warm nature and good humour to settle our nerves. From the many weddings we have been to, we’ve never come across a celebrant as memorable and caring as Jake. We were proud to share our day with him.
If you are looking for a celebrant then settle in to read this novel because you aren't going to read any more reviews after this! My husband and I eloped to Maleny after 'rona did us a bamboozle. Leading up to the day, so many things had gone wrong and on the day we were standing on a hilltop before the ceremony and it was overcast, super windy and our son suddenly burst into tears because he inexplicably, right in that moment, terribly missed our dog! I was standing before the love of my life, about to confess my undying love for him and vow to be with him the rest of my life, but I'll tell you because I'm a frank kinda gal, I was DONE. I wanted to just hurry up and wife this dude and get off that hilltop. Now this is why you NEED Jake as your celebrant; he saved our wedding day. He is a magician, I tell you! I was standing on that hilltop just wanting to get this thing done already, but Jake managed to create something truly special and beautiful for us. He is an amazingly personable man and he was able to bring out all the love and laughter in mine and my now husbands relationship, despite our frustrations with events leading up to the ceremony. With immense warmth and charisma, he reiterated for us why we were doing this and created a bubble for my man and I to really cherish each other, to hell with the weather and wind and everything else! It was so natural and beautiful that my man, who I've only seen cry twice in the 5 years I've been with him, was crying during Jake's words. Jake is also super intuitive and got us to have a hug mid ceremony because we were both becoming a crying mess. He was also mindful of his placement for the best possible photos, which I didn't even think of. His attention to detail is fantastic. He was also an absolute gem entertaining our son after the ceremony so our photographer could get some nice shots of us on the hilltop. This man was made to do weddings and my husband and I could not stop gushing to each other about how great he was. I can't even imagine how amazing Jake would be in a ceremony with guests, because he is the right amount of entertaining while still making everything about the love between the two people standing in front of him. If you are worried about an awkward, stiff ceremony then put your trust in Jake because he will not disappoint you. To finish this novel of a review off, I just want to ensure you don't think Jake has employed bots to write reviews as part of a rigorous marketing overhaul, I am very much a newlywed sitting here sipping coffee with her husband the morning after her wedding, eternally grateful to one incredible celebrant.
Words cannot describe how grateful we are to have had Jake involved on our wedding day. The second we walked away from meeting Jake, we knew we had found our celebrant. Jake's vibrant, calming and expert nature meant we were so comfortable leaving everything in his capable hands. The ability to be able to personalise the ceremony was fantastic.
There was a fair amount of stress when your wedding is just days away from being impacted by a global pandemic, but the way Jake reached out and let us know he was there for us relieved so much stress and really meant a lot to us.
We would not hesitate in recommending Jake to anyone and everyone who asks! Thank you Jake - it was a true pleasure.
Jake was an absolute pleasure to work with. We trusted him with our ceremony from the moment we met and he did not disappoint! He made the entire process stress free and genuinely cares about each of the couples he marries. Our ceremony was perfect, exactly what we hoped for and our guests loved Jake. We cannot thank him enough. If you’re looking for a celebrant, get married by Jake!!

We are so glad we stumbled across Jake and were able to lock him in for our big day! He really gave us that personalised, non-boring ceremony with a splash of humour that we wanted for our wedding. He is personable, well presented and easy to work with. We had a lot of feedback from our guests that our ceremony was the best ceremony that they had been to and we owe that largely to Jake! Thank you so much!
Jake made our elopement perfect. It was just the two of us and Jake. We had a very intimate and beautiful ceremony, we couldn’t have imagined someone else marrying us. Jake helped us throughout the process of planning the wedding with literally everything. He is a very warm, loving and charismatic person. We love him so much!

Could not recommend Jake more highly. Our ceremony was so beautiful, highly personal and genuine. Jake took the time to get to know us as a couple and incorporated this into every aspect of our ceremony. He embraced traditions we wanted to honour but injected a bit of fun along the way, too. He made the process of writing vows and designing our ceremony so easy, and was so approachable at all times. We had so many guests commenting on what a phenomenal job Jake did and even they agreed that he was the best celebrant they'd ever seen! 100% would recommend Married by Jake for your wedding.
Jake made us and our guests feel comfortable but more importantly we had FUN. Not only did he make the lead up to the day as easy as possible but his excitement and enthusiasm created an atmosphere that everyone loved. Thanks so much Jake, it was a great decision to pick you as our celebrant!
Jake was amazing; so professional yet also so fun and energetic. He calmed my husbands nerves who was starting to freak out before I walked down the aisle! And then he did the same thing for me 🤣 All our guests loved him and and many commented that it was the best ceremony they had been to! Definitely 10/10 would recommend!
Thank you for such a wonderful ceremony! We had the
most perfect day and couldn’t have done it without you!!
Just wanted to say thank you for everything you have done throughout this process. Our guests loved your approach to the ceremony and you certainly made us feel at ease! You helped create a day we will treasure forever.
All the best to you and your family.

Jake is incredibly personable and he set a positive, fun & exciting tone for our whole day! My husband and I couldn’t have dreamed of anyone more perfect to lead our ceremony. Jake was an obvious choice for us when first viewing his page and watching his content. We were immediately drawn to Jake and were sure he’d be the perfect fit; he exceeded our expectations in every possible way! Jake was willing to travel hours to our ceremony location and was super easy to chat to over phone & email. Following Jake on social media paid dividends, as we felt we already knew him even though we’d only met for the first time in person just minutes before our wedding. Thank you so much Jake!!
“Thank you again so so much for being a part of our wedding day. You made the day so special for Mat and I and you made us feel so comfortable and set the mood of our wedding perfectly. You are an amazing person. We honestly can't thank you enough for everthing!”
Jake is the most wonderful celebrant we could have asked for! From our first conversation with Jake we knew he was the perfect fit for us thanks to his warmth, kindness, sense of humour and passion for what he does. He took the time to make our ceremony truly ours with the perfect amounts of fun and emotion, and we have had so many comments about how amazing our ceremony was and how great Jake is! Thank you so much Jake! It was a privilege to have you marry us and our wedding would not have been the same without you!
Jake was fantastic for our June elopement! He totally captured the relaxed feel of our day and made our elopement so unique to us. We couldn't have asked for anything more!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for someone better to walk us through the journey of marriage. He was was beyond helpful and understanding with date changes due to COVID-19 he made everyone feel comfortable and at ease (yes that includes the bride who was freaking out and the groom who couldn’t put his button hole on right 😂) he made us laugh and cry and most of all he made us feel at home and loved. Thank you Jake you will always have a spot in our hearts x
