Modern & meaningful
marriage celebrant
Hello, Lovers.
I’m Darren, a Melbourne/Naarm-based marriage celebrant & MC with a soft spot for storytelling, laughter, and seriously good love stories.
I’m here to help you create a ceremony that’s warm, inclusive, a little cheeky, and very you. Whether you’re eloping, going big, or somewhere in between, I bring the perfect balance of heart and humour, like a close friend who also happens to know all the legal stuff.
I believe every love deserves to be celebrated in a way that feels personal and unforgettable.
Say ‘I Do’ with me. 💍✨
