Hello from Matthew.
It’s wonderful to meet you. I’m Matthew, a celebrant who has a true passion for creating fun weddings. It’s the little moments that always matter the most to me.
My style is to create an environment that is light, comfortable and warm to ensure your wedding feels like the most lived moment of your lives. Your ceremony is always 100% tailored to you and it’s important that it feels equal parts engaging, entertaining and emotional.
“Our ceremony and reception were so fun and intimate - we even had people asking if Matthew was an old friend! His experience and natural ability to make people feel comfortable are literally invaluable.”
More about Matthew.
Hello! I’m a creator of custom ceremonies, a master of reception, an energetic soul, sparkling water enthusiast, Dad to two legends and aficionado of a funky bowtie.
I’m here to bring real weddings to South Australia (and beyond). Weddings that are full of joy, laughter, snorts, calmness, dogs, warmth, champagne and all that good stuff.
Between ceremonies and receptions, I’ve been lucky enough to work at over 250 weddings from 2018 to now. I pinch myself everyday with the people that I get to meet and share in their celebration.
Everyone has a unique and wonderful story to tell, and I love being trusted enough to bring that story to life for you, your friends and family members.
In my spare time I’m a part-time unpaid dog walker with my cairn Terrier, Pepper.
“Matthew handled our wedding day with such professionalism, knowledge, fun and a vibrant energy, that I truly feel we could not have done it without him.”
Marriage Celebrant
It’s important to me to take the time to meet with you several times prior to your wedding to understand who you are, what you want and what you don’t want.
I’ll share my extensive resources with you straight away to create an easy and custom experience to help you cruise through to the big dance.
I consider my role to be more than just speaking in front of a crowd. I’m your first point of call, the nerve calmer, run sheet builder, planning wizard and your personal hype person.
“Our ceremony was my favourite part of the day, personalised and with a letter from our pets that made everyone laugh!”
Celebrant to MC
Are you looking for an MC to host your reception?
Why not choose the same person that married you? Did you know I’d love to stick around to look after all the organising, conversations, fiddly bits, timings, run sheet changes, guest engagement, plus more so you and your mates can just have a great time.
“We had so many guests complimenting Matt and our choice in choosing him, for his fun, honest, caring, humorous, down to earth, comfortable approach. Matts years of experience means he knows exactly when to check in with you, when to give you words of encouragement and when to give you space. The most genuine celebrant and MC you could ask for, it felt like we asked a great mate to be part of our day and he had it all sorted, even down to sitting with my grandma to see how she was doing.”
