NEWCASTLE & HUNTER VALLEY, NSWJulie Muir
“Hi, I’m Julie Muir – but you can call me Jules! [she/her]. I’m a Dublin girl with a lust for life. I believe that the journey should be just as fun – if not more! – than the destination. I’m a heart-led creative who enjoys writing beautiful stories infused with a bit humour.
Oh, and I’m obsessed with podcasts and whiskey sours.”
MACARTHUR, NSWKylie Wilson
“Born out of COVID-19 and after the Travel Industry was decimated, I got to hit the restart button and fulfil a long-held dream to share in some of the most important days of people’s lives and create memories to carry through life from beginning to end.
With a natural ability in connecting with people, I love to hear their stories and am forever curious about the path they have travelled. Everybody has a tale to tell, and I want to embrace those qualities in providing unforgettable moments for you to cherish.
If you’re looking for a fun, energetic and down to earth celebrant with a laid-back approach, let’s get together.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the trip.”

SYDNEY, NSWTamara Celebrant
“Hey there, I’m Tamara.
Celebrating with family and friends is my utmost favourite past time, so celebrating with you and yours is a serious ‘do-what-you-love’ no brainer.
Creating a ceremony with you, and about you, is so much more than the legal stuff and the obligatory rituals. It’s about telling joyful stories, embracing the butterflies, looking someone in the eye and telling them how you feel, in front of the people you feel so much love for.
I can’t wait to hear your story and vision over coffee or wine soon.”
SYDNEY, NSWMarry Me Zoe
“Yay, you found me! So I’m guessing you’re doing some celebrant shopping and steering clear of beige and cringe? Cos you want a fun ceremony with a party vibe that warms hearts and brings the WOW?
Enter stage left, me, Zoe: hypester hitcher, hell yeah moment maker, and master organiser.
Whether it’s 2 or 200 of your faves, I’ll get to the heart of your couple superpower, flip the traditional and give you the ceremony that will have you and your guests laughing, sighing and happy sooking. Same same, different as, young hearts, doing it again, wanting it Hi-Fi, feeling it Lo-Fi, vows in the hood or over the rainbow. I’m a YES to all the lovestruck legends! Stuff the fairy tale. We’re serving shit-hot realness.
Sound good? Let’s go!”
NEWCASTLE, NSWWed By Jade
“Hi, I’m Jade! I’m a celebrant, MC, singer and joke lover all rolled into one fun-loving human.
I create ceremonies that are easy-going, relaxed, fun and all about you. I’m also a BIG lover of your fur babies and love to see them join you on your special day.
After more than 10 years in the music industry as a professional singer, I decided to add ‘Wedding Doer’er’ to my bag of tricks and now I’m a Registered Marriage Celebrant getting couples wed, providing live music options and MC-hosting the house down at the reception!
I love a good French Martini and I drink my coffee black (cause I’m a strong little pocket rocket).
Talk to me about Brooklyn 99 and we’ll need to add an extra hour to our meeting time.”
NEWCASTLE & HUNTER VALLEY, NSWWed By Steph
“Hi, I’m Steph.
It is a strange thing to have to describe yourself, feels weird, but I figure if you are going to let me in on your love story… you should know a little about me.
I am a lawyer and a bit of a nerd, I love learning but don’t let that fool you… I am also an A Grade goofball and an absolute sucker for organized fun and I have a terrible diagnosis of FOMO.
My fiancé will tell you I have far too many dresses for my own good and can make friends with anyone. I love Karaoke (my go-to song is What Up, 4 Non Blondes), my golden retriever Nelly and my friends and family. Wanna know more… Just ask, I also have no filter!

SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS, NSWThomas Stewart
A warm and calming presence on your wedding day
“Hi, I’m Thomas Stewart!
I’m a wedding photographer based in Bowral, in the Southern Highlands of NSW. I also travel a lot, and I spend half the year based in the UK (May to September).
My #1 objective is to ensure that I don’t take away from your fun day. I don’t want my presence to be annoying or frustrating. I want to glide into the day like a random uncle who is funny but not weird, and who all your guests enjoy being around. Later on, after the wedding when you’re looking at your photos, I want you to say to each other:
‘HA that was fun! And also Tom wasn’t weird at all, and he didn’t push us too far with photos, and he recognised when we just wanted to finish up and head to the reception and drink wine with our mates. He didn’t detract from our day – he made it better’ 😍
