If you have ever heard of people being at the top of their craft, having honed in their skills through years of experience and effort, and they just appear perfect at it? Well, this is Jake. And Perfect is not me being hyperbolic.

Jake was the perfect wedding celebrant. From the moment I sent an enquiry, all the way through, he was warm, professional, and showed genuine care. He made the paperwork easy and simple, and did a lot of the administration work for us. And when you are in the middle of organizing a wedding, this is a life saver.

The ceremony itself was incredible. He was able to bring the exact right mood to the ceremony. It was intimate, while also having my wife and I, and the guests, laughing at various stages. I had numerous guests come up after the ceremony and ask how long he had known us, because he spoke like he had known us for years.

We also had Jake MC our reception, and that couldn't have gone better. The venue staff commented how great he was, and said he was the best MC they've had. He kept everything going according to plan, so we got to relax and enjoy our night.

Jake, I can't thank you enough for everything.

Jake was incredible, he matched our energy perfectly. Everyone commented on how amazing he was and asked how we found him. He made the day all about us and what we wanted. Could not ask for a better celebrant. I will recommend Jake to everyone. Thanks again for such an amazing and personal experience.

Jake was warm, personable and professional from the start - a pleasure to deal with. He endeavoured to identify and create exactly what we wanted for our day, and he absolutely delivered! He had some fantastic suggestions, which we chose to incorporate, but he never tried to push anything onto us. So many guests commented on how well the ceremony flowed and how personal it was. Having Jake as both our Celebrant and MC was always a great decision, as Jake’s energy kept the guests excited and engaged. We can’t thank him enough for making sure our day was better than we could have ever imagined, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly!

You probably hear this all the time, but you are incredible at what you do. You created the perfect atmosphere with your warmth, friendliness and charisma, but also having complete control of the crowd at the same time. We had so many people commenting on how impressed they were with you. 

Thanks again for everything!!!!

Where do we even begin? From the start, Jake was very helpful and passionate with the whole process from the legal paperwork to helping with vows. On the day, he eased our nerves and made the entire day feel so relaxed and fun. Jake was our MC for the night as well and WOW is all we can say. Our guests were coming up to us saying how brilliant he was and how much fun he was! Definitely recommend having Jake be a part of your wedding day. 1000/10!!!!!

Jake is truly the perfect wedding celebrant. From the initial booking to the the day itself, he made us feel comfortable and relaxed. His genuine interest and care were evident throughout. On the day, Jake ensured all guests felt valued and included. His delivery struck the perfect balance of being relaxed, witty, honest, and upbeat, exactly as we had requested. It felt like he had known us for years. Post-ceremony, numerous family and friends even asked if Jake was a long-lost brother as he knew us so well!

Thank you, Jake, for making our day so memorable.

Jake is truly gifted at what he does! We cannot imagine having had anyone else with us on the day. Jake made the whole experience right from the initial booking, through to the ceremony seamless and fun. His attention to detail is second to none and we had so many guests compliment the ceremony for Jakes perfect blend of humour, sincerity and genuine passion. 10/5 stars. Thank you Jake!!

Jake was incredible. He has lots of amazing reviews and they are all true!! Jake was so helpful throughout the planning process, we never felt we couldn't reach out to him if we needed something. The ceremony prep was fun and great to follow. We had one phone call with Jake prior to our wedding, his calendar was fully booked and he still squeezed us in. Jake went above and beyond for us on the day, he was always there to help me with my dress or pass me a drink for a sip in between the thousand things going on around us! and was always making sure we knew what needed to happen next. Jake made our ceremony so authentic and warm, we wanted cute, lovey but chill and fun and he nailed it. Our guests didn't stop laughing or smiling all day. Our guests have all come up to us since and commented about how amazing Jake was, Jake is truly special and we can't thank him enough for being there with us on our special day! He was also our MC and he was so aware of how to ensure guests had a great time, minimising interruptions and maximising atmosphere, we would absolutely recommend him to everyone. And as a bonus - he filmed parts of the day for us so we got a sneak peak the next day! That meant the world, to be able to wake up the next day and see it play out on camera. Oh… and our guests keep telling us that they loved him and thought he was so incredible and they thought we’d known him for years. Jake, you’re so special and talented at what you do! Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts.

My husband and I are so grateful to have Jake a part of our special day. He made it fun, easy and so personal and special. We could not have picked a better celebrant and we will always look back at our perfect day and know that Jake was a huge part of that. Thanks again Jake you truly are an amazing person and celebrant.

First of all.. WOW. We were lucky enough to have Jake as our Celebrant & MC. We knew he was going to be amazing but nothing could prepare us for how magical he made our day. I’m still looking back a week later and wondering ‘is this person even real?!’ It’s like he had known us our whole lives. Our guests all thought he was a family member or a life long friend. We had a brief for the ceremony of relaxing, upbeat, good vibes and he nailed all of them… we had been to a few weddings where the ceremony is quite boring and mundane and he made it so much fun, but so meaningful too. All of our guests said it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever been to. After we had picked our venue and date, we booked Jake the very next day and we are so glad we did. He exceeded all expectations. He called us a week before and gave me some amazing advice and settled my nerves completely, which I needed. As I arrived he greeted me and completely calmed me, his presence just makes you feel so comfortable! He did the same with my husband. Not only that, he also went around to all the speakers of the night to give them tips! Jake completely made our wedding, I don’t think there was one person who didn’t mention how incredible he was. Not only is he so professional and so amazing at what he does, he is the kindest person, so real, and the best guiding light for the day.. he doesn’t treat this like it’s his job, he really made us feel like our day was the only thing that mattered to him.

Jake, I truely believe our day was so incredible and ran so smoothly because of you. You being there is something we will cherish for the rest of our lives. The only negative thing I have to say is that there is only 1 of you!

If you want the wedding of your dreams, like we had.. book Jake for your special day. I can’t express enough; how one person can have such a huge impact on your day.

Thank you so much Jake, you have no idea how thankful we are for you.

Jake was our celebrant at our wedding and also the MC. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and was too cheap considering the value he brought to our wedding. Truly impressed with his attitude, attention to detail and approach to weddings. Would highly recommend Jake to anyone that wants to have a world class wedding experience!

Jake is incredible. He facilitated such a wonderful ceremony and struck the most perfect balance between sincere / warm / thoughtful and humorous. We got a lot of feedback from guests on what a wonderful job he did - he really helped make the ceremony fun and special for us and one of the most memorable moments of the day. We weren't expecting to have so much fun at the ceremony and it genuinely ended up being one of the real highlights of the day. From our first interaction, Jake was incredibly professional and reliable and we always felt like we were in safe hands/working with the best. Even down to little things like ordering the wedding documentation was an absolute breeze with Jake. Thanks again!

It is no surprise that Jake has a myriad of 5 star reviews on here. He truly is the best in the business. His energy and professionalism were second to none. He put us at ease and made our ceremony a spectacular experience for not only us, but our nearest and dearest. Everyone was raving about how great he was.

Jake you truly captured exactly who we are as a couple, we can't thank you enough for being with us on our special day and we recommend you to absolutely everybody. Much love from the newly married Mr and Mrs Summers!

Jake.. wow, where do we begin! Right from the get-go, we loved jakes energy and complete passion. We had nothing but clear, precise communication with jake throughout the planning of our wedding. He helped us with different / unique options on how to style / shape our ceremony. He had this vision that absolutely captured what we wanted. It was absolutely perfect. On our wedding day, he kept us girls cool and calm before walking down the aisle. Throughout our ceremony he kept the energy flowing, smiles and laughter. It was a magical time for each one of us. When I was up with Dale, I felt completely at ease with Jake in control. After the ceremony, Jake suggested having a couple of moments to ourselves which was needed. It was time to reflect, look over our venue our friends and family who shared this day with us. I will be forever thankful for this. Thank you Jake! From the Aubrey's

Qualities we were looking for in a celebrant were confident, organised and charasmatic and Jake delivered this in spades. All of the information required in the lead up to the wedding was well paced - in fact, the actual getting married part was the simplest part of the day! Jake was great at helping the groom out before the ceremony (those fiddly boutonnières!), and kept the humour when our toddler had main character energy during the ceremony. And at our reception, I completely let go of all the lists in my head and just let Jake take the reins with MCing our special night and we had the absolute best time. Thanks Jake!

Jake was absolutely incredible! He was the perfect fit for our ceremony. We wanted our ceremony to feel more relaxed, fun and upbeat and Jake delivered exactly that and more! The ceremony was personalised so perfectly that all our family and friends couldn't stop talking about great he was, everyone wanted to know who he was and how we found him! He was able to engage with our guests so easily and everyone really enjoyed our ceremony. Standing in front of people can be scary but Jake took all those nerves away and made Matt and I feel confident and exited to be standing in front of everyone, reminding us that it really is our day to enjoy! The communication with Jake in the lead up to the wedding was so easy and we were confident with our decision from the start. I believe a celebrant can either make or break a ceremony and Jake 100% made ours amazing!
