Legals only
-
Imagine this as your ‘Registry wedding’, except a whole lot more special!
Just you and your two witnesses, Ellen can meet you at your home / fave coffee shop or bar / local park - wherever you like!
Ellen will cover all the ‘legal stuff’ to get you married. But if you’d like to make it more special, you can include personal vows to each other, a kiss (or lots of kisses!), a photoshoot, your dog, you name it.
Some couples choose this option if they are planning their wedding overseas and want to make sure the legalities are covered in Australia. Other couples would like a family member or friend to conduct their ceremony and have only the legal part covered separately by a celebrant. The options are endless!

Ellen will arrive to your wedding venue an hour before your ceremony start time, check-in with your vendors, and ensure everything is perfect and your guests are greeted, settled, excited and engaged.
She will deliver your ceremony in a professional and passionate way, and ensure you feel comfortable and confident up there with her so you can really be in the moment with your love, in front of the community who has come to support you.

Additional services
Reception MC
Ellen will be the driving force to ensure your reception runs smoothly.
She will bring the vibes, but she won't steal the show or crack inappropriate jokes. Rather, she will be a friendly and calming presence who will keep track of time, coordinate with your vendors and the reception venue staff, and be your go-to contact, so you can just enjoy your night!
This means you don't have to put the pressure of this role onto one of your guests, and you can rest knowing that you won't have to trust Uncle Jim** with the microphone later in the evening.
She will stay as long or as short as you like- but generally this will be for about 4 hours after your ceremony, after speeches and the cake and when the d-floor starting to heat up.
**We feel like everyone has an 'Uncle Jim!
