Welcome to your UNIQUE ceremony
a ceremony that's 100% you and 164% different and exciting 

One that attracts responses like this

Hi Jenny! I know I've thanked you a billion times but I just wanted to say it again. Saturday was incredible. Your attention to personalising our wedding and working with us over the past year has been phenomenal. You made such an impact on our guests. Everyone who I spoke with said that it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever attended. One of my guests had said at the end of the ceremony that it was the first wedding ceremony he had been to, and another nearby guest said, "Don't let this set the bar for you, because they're not usually this good."

That's me, Jenny (officially on your certificates, Jennifer) authorised marriage celebrant based in the Western Suburbs of Brisbane, and an awesome wordsmith, avowed enemy of weddings that perpetuate patriarchal notions of old-fashioned gender roles,  and fun, relaxed creator and performer of inclusive wedding, elopement, naming, and renewal of vows ceremonies.  Check out my Next-Gen Re-Imagined Wedding Ceremony package!

Prices. Availability. Experience.

Two of the top questions anyone asks are Price, and Availability. And that's fine - both are important.
I provide top notch celebrant services at prices ranging from $410 to $1200

The price depends on what type of wedding and where. It's all about my time, both what you see, and what I do behind the scenes, because I bring the same level of skill, commitment, and sheer love to every single ceremony, regardless. Availability is down to what else is in my calendar. I'm not a conveyor belt celebrant. So if your day is already taken I'm not available. Experience. Often not asked outright. But you look for clues, right?  19 years. Yes. Thousands of ceremonies - couples married, vows renewed, babies named, vows written, other types of ceremonies performed (and written for Undercover Celebrant Clients), and thousands and thousands of guests delighted. Each occasion unique. (There's a world of difference between hundredss of ceremonies created and performed and one or two ceremonies repeated over and over for 19 years!)

Your guests will laugh, and cry, and talk about your ceremony for ever, in a good way!

I'm all Substance + Solid Know How + Sauce which makes me wildly good at getting you married, and at surprising and delighting your nearest and dearest with a one-of-a-kind ceremony that's way more fun than they were expecting it to be.

Our incredible Celebrant @jennifercraminclusivecelebrant put so much time, touch & effort into our bespoke ceremony - it was entertaining & engaging while still being heartfelt and personal. It was so much more than I though a wedding could be!

Diversity, Inclusion, and Equality all matter to me. If they matter to you and you dream of a ceremony that is relaxed, respectful, inclusive, and original, you're in the right place.

I make people laugh, and cry, in a good way! And I love every minute of it. Whether your ceremony is going to be the big bash or a teeny secret one, or something in-between, there will be no open-mike-night shenanigans and outdated sexist traditions will be firmly kicked to the kerb.  Inclusive, meaningful, and fun is my vibe and my style.

Whether your bag is a romantic, fun, different-in-a-good-way, or who-would-have-thought marriage  ceremony with many guests,  a quirky backyard registry style wedding that gets you married without a lot of fuss, a surprise wedding, a secret elopement, or just a simple marriage paperwork signing ceremony, Jennifer Cram (me) is your girl. I can't wait to get started on working with you to create your very original, very you, one-of-a-kind ceremony!

Not sure yet about which type of ceremony to choose? That's not a problem. We'll explore the possibilities, look at all the practicalities, and come up with a plan that will be totally right for you.

What do I do when you are ready to say I Do?

As your marriage celebrant, I have two equally important jobs.  I throw my heart and soul into both of them!

• First and foremost, my job is to ensure that you are legally married without a hitch or a hiccup. On your special day, with beautifully crafted words and the necessary legal paperwork, we will change your legal status to married, embracing all the emotional and legal significance that comes with it.

• My second job, and one I hold very dear to my heart, is to do everything needed to ensure that your wedding ceremony is loving, uniquely personal, and perfect for you. A ceremony that makes everyone present feel seen and valued. Remember, there are no rules. Your ceremony can be anything you want it to be.
  

From our very first contact, I will be there to guide you through every step you need to take to be legally married. At the same time, I will be getting to know you, understanding your story, and discussing all the options for your ceremony. I'll remind you that, apart from what the Marriage Act requires, there are no rules!

Because we start with a blank sheet for every ceremony, whatever we come up with will come to life on the day, amazing and delighting your guests.

Head over to my Blog to explore possibilities and wise advice.

How it works

Your marriage ceremony is super-important to me, and so is making sure you start your married life joyfully and confidently. So I turn the "usual" way ceremonies are developed on its head. I start by getting to know you. Who you are, what makes you tick, what dreams and ideas you have.

I'll give you my inspiring and informative booklets that are a treasure trove of tradition-twisting, rule-bending information, and all the freedom you need to have a ceremony that is worthy of you. Actually, I'll be assuring you that there are almost no rules. And definitely that you do not have to fall into line with customs and traditions we've inherited

There is nothing stopping you being the stars of your own ceremony. That's why I don't hog your limelight! When the big day rolls around, you can be confident that your ceremony will have the right feel, for you, is the perfect length, for you, and that everyone present will feel welcome and valued, by you.

Your ceremony will have my fingerprint on it. That's why people hire me!
Unique though a fingerprint is, it is subtle. What your guests will notice is that your ceremony is interestingly, authentically, lovingly you! It is not about me. You are the stars. On the day I'm the narrator, but only where necessary and agreed, the voice-over, but only if required, the prompt, subtly, and the stage manager, unobtrusively, all rolled into one. I'm there to make sure their attention is on you, not me.

" Good morning Jenny. Wow what a day, we were so sorry that we didn’t get chance to say goodbye or thank you. We absolutely loved the ceremony it honestly was so much fun and was light hearted and exactly how we wanted it to be. You went above and beyond and really made it personal and I LOVED the Hungarian twist and scouse custom at the end that really did top it for us. Everyone said through the night you were fabulous and they enjoyed it so much. We will honestly remember it and you for the rest of our lives. Thank you again. Emma and Laz (text received 6.45 am the morning after their wedding)

"... the ceremony was the highlight of the day, you made our wedding so special, you made us laugh and cry and have the best time ... I have never actually been to a ceremony that was so enjoyable that you almost don't want it to end except for ours. Lots of love S & A " Read more reviews

What's the next step?

Here's how to get started - talk to me about your date. Hopefully, I'll be free that day.

But here's the thing - you don't have to have a fixed date organised. You can lodge your Notice of Intended Marriage with me before you have your venue or date locked in! We can even start on planning your perfect ceremony while you are still looking for your perfect venue.

Other ceremonies

When you are ready to celebrate the success of your marriage with a Renewal of Vows, or formally welcome your child into the family in a celebratory Naming Ceremony, I'm ready and willing. I can even do all of those things in one combo ceremony.

So let's talk, soon.
