Ceremony Celebrant & Reception MC

$1600 + GST

My most complete offering - and for the couples who choose it, the one that makes the whole day feel like one beautifully held experience. This is where Director Jaq comes in.

Includes everything in the Ultimate Ceremony option below: in-depth planning sessions, unlimited editing until every word is right, plus two complimentary half-hour individual vow coaching sessions so that what you say to each other on that day is exactly what you mean. I stay with you through the entire process - as many conversations as it takes - until your ceremony is something neither of you will ever forget.

And then I stay for the reception.

Because I already know your story, your guests, and the tone of your celebration, the shift from ceremony to dance floor is natural and continuous. I manage every entrance, introduction, speech, and formality so the night never loses momentum. One voice holding the whole day - from the moment you walk up the aisle to the moment the dancing starts.

The couples who choose this consistently tell me they couldn't imagine having done it any other way.

Everything in the Signature Ceremony, plus in-depth planning sessions, unlimited editing until every word is right, and two complimentary half-hour individual vow coaching sessions so that what you say to each other on that day is exactly what you mean.

Signature Ceremony

$750 + GST

Your love story, told the way it deserves to be told. This option is also available for elopements of any size.

We meet, we talk, and I learn your story well enough to tell it like it's my own. We decide on the kind of ceremony you want, I learn what makes your relationship yours and weave it all together - your words, your tone, your love, turned into something your guests will remember long after the day is over.

Includes a planning meeting to explore your story and vision, a ceremony script written specifically for you, a wide range of vow choices and guidance for writing your own, and suggestions on ceremony elements if you want to add something personal or symbolic.

Jaq is the BEST! She was both our celebrant and MC and this has to be the best decision, hands down, we made for our wedding. She really helped us feel at ease during the ceremony, and we had SOOO many people come up to us and say how great Jaq was.

She brings a real calm energy to what will be your most hectic day and we couldn't recommend her more.

Thank you Jaq! Thank you for telling our story in such a beautiful way, and for making our day so special.

Ceremony Packages & Pricing

a LITTLE MORE MAGIC

The details that elevate an extraordinary ceremony into unforgettable.

Vow Coaching & Writing

$200 + GST

If you want to write your own vows and want support to get them right, this is the session for you.

In an hour, we'll talk about your relationship and what you actually want to say. I can coach you through writing them yourself, or write them for you to deliver. Either way, when the moment arrives, they'll land exactly the way they should.


Reception MC

$650 + GST

For couples who want the same person holding the whole day. Because I already know your story, your guests, and the tone of your celebration, the shift from ceremony to reception is natural and continuous. I manage every entrance, introduction, formality, speech, and first dance so the night never loses momentum.

This is one of the best decisions you can make for your reception. Every couple who chooses this tells me afterwards it was the decision that elevated their whole day.


Ceremony Rehearsal

$200 + GST

A rehearsal removes a surprising amount of wedding day nerves - not just for the couple, but for the whole bridal party. We walk through the ceremony together so that everyone knows their role and feels comfortable in it. When the real moment arrives, it feels natural rather than terrifying.

Highly recommended for larger wedding parties or anyone who knows they'll be anxious on the day.
