💕Love Note 💕 From Amy & Jeffrey 🙏🙏🙏
"Ketrina was just amazing! As an interstate couple, we had to spend a lot of time on the phone with Ketrina, asking questions and going through particulars. We did make a trip to Brisbane and Ketrina was so accommadating, meeting us at the venue and running through a "rehersal". Ketrina is very commuicative and professional. She has such a wonderful and bubbly personality which really suited our goofy vibe."
Oh wow, Amy & Jeffrey, this absolutely made my day! Thank you so much for your kind words. It was such a pleasure working with you both on your special day. Being interstate can add an extra layer of logistics, but you both handled it so well, and I’m so glad I could help make the process smoother for you. Meeting up in Brisbane and running through everything in person was such a great way to bring it all together and get the paperwork completed. And I absolutely loved being part of your fun (and goofy vibe) wedding – so much fun!! ! Wishing you both so much love and happiness in your next chapter together. Your Celebrant, Ketrina :) xo

Oh what a honor it was to be a part of a simple yet heartfelt legals-only ceremony for Sandra and Denny. From my ‘Sign ‘n’ Seal’ location options, they chose my local park in Gordon Park, with their absolute nearest and dearest. The happy couple opted for an intimate ceremony ahead of their larger cultural wedding the next day.
Such a lovely morning and their parents were filled with pride.
If you're dreaming of a personal and meaningful moment with your closest loved ones, before the big shebang… then this is the way to go. It simple, personable and legal process so easy!

A LEGALS ONLY wedding is just like a registry office marriage… but way more personal! With me as your Celebrant, you get:
- A relaxed, stress-free, experience
- The freedom to choose where you say "I do" (no government office required!)
- A fully legal marriage - quick, simple, and official.
Perfect for couples who just want to ‘get it done’ or have bigger plans for later, maybe getting married overseas for instance. You may need to marry for visa requirements, like working overseas, or immigration. You’re on a budget? Or simply want nothing more. Either way, I make sure it’s easy, warm, and totally you!
DID YOU KNOW....?? To legally marry, you just need to exchange a few key legal words and if that’s all you want to say, that’s totally fine! As long as we do this in front of two witnesses, you’re officially married. No need for the Registry Office or Courthouse - I'll take care of all the paperwork for you!
Ready to say "I do" the easy way? Get in touch – DM, Text, Email or call. Either way I’d love to hear from you.

💕New Blog💕 Matt & Mason’s stylish Micro Wedding
When I first spoke with Matt & Mason about their plans to get married in Brisbane with their absolutely nearest and dearest, they thought a ‘Legals Only’ ceremony would be the way to go. But after getting to know them a little, learning how much their family meant to them, and their original plans for a big wedding pre-covid, we came to realise that their day deserved so much more than just the formalities. It was agreed nothing too elaborate, but still a heartfelt, intimate celebration would be perfect… and that exactly what they had.
Before you do, I just wanted to share part of their Google review, which I’m so thankful and proud of;
“We couldn’t be happier with the incredible experience we had with Ketrina. She gave us so much confidence and peace of mind throughout the process. Ketrina had such a wealth of ideas and suggestions that truly elevated our ceremony. She took the time to listen to and understand our brief, ensuring that every detail was a perfect reflection of us as a couple. We could truly feel her passion and commitment to making our day as special and unique as possible.
If you’re looking for a celebrant who goes above and beyond, listens with care, communicates flawlessly, and brings warmth and professionalism to every moment, Ketrina is the one for you. We can’t recommend her highly enough” Mason & Matt

💕Love Note 💕 "Ketrina, we can’t thank you enough, the day was just beautiful and all of our family were so blown away by your service. Thank you thank you thank you.
Also, thanks for persuading us not to do the the formals (AKA Legals Only), the day itself was just pure perfection." Mason & Matt, Intimate Elopement

Fifteen years, hundreds of weddings, and countless love stories later, I still get that same spark of excitement before every ceremony. Being a celebrant isn’t just about standing at the front and saying a few words- it’s about creating a moment that feels just right for every couple.
It’s the quiet reassurance I offer to a nervous groom before he sees his partner walk down the aisle. It’s the shared laughter when a cheeky inside joke makes it into the vows. It’s the tearful glances between soulmates as they promise forever. It’s the little moments that make every wedding uniquely beautiful.
I’ve always believed that love should be celebrated in a way that feels authentically you - whether that’s an intimate elopement by the bay, a fun-filled ceremony with a surprise twist, or a grand celebration surrounded by family and friends. No two couples are the same, and that’s what makes my job so special.
Tell me - what’s a little moment from a wedding that has stayed with you? I'd love to hear your stories!

Always love to see past loved-up couples on socials.
Maddie and Caleb’s wedding at Victoria Park was all about making their ceremony their own. Their friend Robbie led the way, while I worked behind the scenes - helping craft the script, coordinating the flow, including attending their rehearsal, and stepping in briefly for the legal formalities.
This concept is becoming more popular, giving couples the best of both worlds: a personal touch with professional support. Maddie and Caleb found me through , and it was an absolute joy to be a part of their day.
REPOST • Maddison and Caleb’s wedding was truly one for the books 🩷 From their stunning Courtyard ceremony to an unforgettable reception in the Garden Marquee, every moment was pure magic.
