Apparently we’re meant to wait for the perfect round number of followers to hit the follow button before celebrating… but honestly? I’m calling it early.

Because behind every follow is a real human, and I am a HUGE FAN of human connections!

Some are wedding vendors, other celebrants, friends, family and old work colleagues.

But generally it's someone engaged, planning a wedding, supporting my work, learning something helpful about weddings, or simply enjoying the chaos, love stories and behind the scenes moments of my South West celebrant life with a side of humour, a love of dressing up and a couple of very loved and spoilt dachshunds making cameos here and there.

And every one of you being here, means so much.

In fact, the longest study on human happiness ever conducted by Harvard found that strong human relationships are the single biggest predictor of happiness and longevity! More than money, fame, or success.

Which honestly makes perfect sense to me… because connection is exactly what weddings are all about.

This little corner of the internet has grown because engaged couples want marriage ceremonies and wedding days that feel:
✨ personal
✨ relaxed, yet meaningful
✨ full of love, laughter, and maybe a few happy tears
✨ and actually feel like them, not a copy and paste script they've heard before and switched off.

So if you’re new here, Hello! 👋 I’m Nikki, a passionate marriage celebrant based in Busselton, in the South West WA & Margaret River region, helping couples create ceremonies their wedding guests still talk about long after the champagne runs out.

And if you’ve been here a while… thank you for sticking around through the love stories, velvet vows, wedding day tips from someone who has seen a lot of INCREDIBLE weddings in her 7 years in the industry, the real talk, the post ceremony car chats, the appreciation posts, the gripes (sorry beach weddings) and the occasional slightly unhinged celebrant energy when I'm pumped up on epic wedding vibes 😌

👉 If you’re engaged (or know someone who is), hit follow or send them my way, I’d love to help make their ceremony the best part of their wedding day in the South West, Perth, Broome, Darwin, Exmouth, Melbourne and beyond!

Now I want to celebrate YOU too…

Tell me in the comments, what’s something you’re proud of lately?
Big win, tiny win, survived the week win… they all count!

Because celebrating rewires our brains… and I’m keen for more of that energy around here ✨

KASEY ♥️ WADE

A small town, a mutual friend and a shared selfie on Facebook did what tinder couldn’t do the first time they came across one another on the app ⚡️

Kasey did see Wade on the app one day while swiping through the local talent and to be honest, she thought he was a gym bro who rode a motorcycle and was not impressed at all 😆🫣 but ….. what she didn’t realise is that the motorbike in the photo was actually a time zone racing game and Wade was neither of the things she imagined.

And this is where the universe stepped in ✨ one afternoon Kasey met up with a friend at the local in town, Hally’s and posted a pic of the two of them enjoying an arvo drink when Wade spotted it and promptly sent Lisa a PM asking who the hottie was she was with ⚡️

Well their very own Cupid got to work and the following week they were meeting up for a very first date, and the rest really is history!

I had the absolute honour of marrying these two lovers at the beginning of December.

Talk about small towns, I actually used to work with Wade about 25 years ago in Perth at a car service department and I’ve known Kasey for a few years after meeting her at the skate park 🛹 and it all came full circle when they trusted me to bring their magic wedding ceremony together for them ♥️ always thankful for being the celebrant on a couples wedding day, but ones like this are pretty extraordinary ✨

I have two Saturdays left in November 2026, reach out if you’d like to know the dates! 📅

✨ HAYLEY ♥️JORDAN

Their paths first crossed back in high
school, but it wasn’t until years later
at a festival that their story truly began.

It was one of those summer nights
that felt endless, filled with music,
laughter and the kind of carefree
energy that only exists in your
twenties ✨

Somewhere amongst the
crowd, the dancing, and perhaps a
few too many vodka red bulls, their
eyes met.

Hayley noticed Jordan’s
fine physique and swagger, Jordan
noticed Hayley’s big blue eyes, cute
smile, incredible posture,
intimidating abs and perfect peach 🍑
and something between them
shifted 🤭

What began as a fun, unexpected
reconnection soon revealed a
deeper spark.

There was an ease
and comfortability between them,
the kind that comes when two
people simply click, and they began spending more time together, that easy, effortless energy
between them turned into something solid, and they found that rare, beautiful harmony, the kind
that feels both grounding and electric all at once ⚡️

6 months later, they realised
they’d taken things to another level
with a natural authenticity and were now
officially making memories
together 💭

There were so many highlights from Hayley and Jordan’s stunning day and their story was just one of many! 🫠 perfectly planned by the wonderful Emma

Do you love a good love story?

Me too 😍 and yes, the ceremony is my favourite part of a wedding day 😉

Reach out via DM or the website if you’d love me to retell your love story on your wedding day 📆

JAKE ♥️ HELEN

Local legends and love that began over their shared love of coffee, cycling and their fur babies Kaizer and Logan back in 2018 ☕️

Between morning coffees and triathlon training sessions Jake and Helen’s friendship turned into a spark and that spark eventually turned into something neither of them quite expected.

Jake was captivated by Helen’s beautiful blue eyes, amazing smile and their many shared similar interests, and Helen originally thought Jake was a bit of a bad boy, which wasn’t her usual go to: attractive, fit and covered in tattoos, but then she found out he had a husky, and suddenly that bad boy image softened just enough to make her curious.

The following year a few flirty DMs began as they got to know one another more and more before they bit the bullet and met up with their huskies at the dog beach, and a very first official date 🏖️

It was a slow burn kind of love as they began laying foundations and building something extraordinary, and in time they’ve gone from training partners to life partners starting businesses, and welcoming the apple of their eye, their beautiful baby boy into the world as they keep chasing dreams and adventuring through life side by side ✨

Marrying them on a beautiful local property .homestead.kaloorup with a sea of familiar faces of couples I’ve married there as guests, and family of Jake’s I’ve worked with and married in the past, was truly a special moment ✨ and an absolute honour to be able to marry these two beautiful humans who trusted me with their story and wedding day ♥️ forever grateful 🥹

LIZZIE ♥️ BEN

First crossed paths as teenagers navigating high school in 2015.

They attended different schools, but knew of one another, as teenagers with raging hormones are pretty observant of others around
their own age. They shared mutual friends, were facebook friends and often ended up at the
same parties, so inevitably they finally found a reason to chat at a party.

They’d both quietly observed the other a number of times and by the end of this Halloween party night they found themselves outside
engrossed in conversation like no one else was around.

Lizzie remembers thinking Ben was
hilarious, flashing his big cheesy
smile, and making everyone laugh.

Ben was captivated by Lizzie’s infectious
smile and warm energy and once
they began chatting, they pretty
much haven’t stopped!

By the end of that year they took off with their friend to Leavers, but these guys went international and hit Bali to celebrate ✈️ 😎

Enjoying making core memories and new friends with their newfound freedom they somehow found themselves conveniently ending up having to share a room too 😆

Well somewhere between the
golden hour glow that hits like a
filter, DJ’s taking it up a notch,
cocktails, poolside hangs, dancing
for hours, everyone feeling
euphoric during the massive party week standing on top of a bar, Ben turned to Lizzie mid-dance, and said what his heart and been
saying for a while: those 3 little life changing words of love ❤️‍🔥 and after realising the next day it wasn’t the jungle juice talking, they’ve been side by side doing life together ever since!

Little beautiful little pink bundle of love Sophie led their wedding party in along with Lizzie’s Mum when they married at Aravina last month, and it was one of the most wonderful weddings for two of life’s most sparkly, happy humans that filled everyone hearts with love ✨

Love stories like theirs are one of my favourite things about being a celebrant ♥️ 🎤

REAL • LOVE ❤️‍🔥

Caroline & Owen may have hidden their attraction to one another at work when they first crossed paths when Owen joined the same company as a new grad and was mesmerised by his colleague conducting the workshop in his initial first days, but there was no hiding their adoration and love on their wedding day at last week 💃🏼

As always, there was an incredible team of vendors who made their dream wedding day come to life and a massive thank you to for the sneak peak of these stunning wedding day photos! 🫠
