BRISBANE'S BEST CELEBRANTS
Oh Brisbane – how we love thee! From the endless sunny days, through to brown snake that is the river, creating consistent confusion as to whether one is north or south of it. From the endless breweries, to the views from Mt Coot-tha, we know that many couples want to marry in this ever-growing city.
Below is a handful of our suggestions of celebrants who we whole-heartedly recommend.

Melissa Price Celebrant + MC
Melissa Price is a Marriage Celebrant, Event Manager, bringer of the laughs and a Labrador lover!
If you are looking for a fun, relaxed and all-round decent human to hitch you, Melissa may just fit the bill. She is most definitely not the lovely softly spoken funeral lady… don’t get her wrong, she knows they do an amazing job, but it’s not her or her vibe. She sometimes laugh out loud.
She’ll deliver your ceremony in a cool, calm, and stress-free environment. While she’s mindful that it’s a very romantic and special occasion, Melissa loves to include some humour to complement the seriousness of the occasion. Those giggles and smiles make the best candid photos and keepsakes.
Contact Melissa here for more info on her services.
Louise Vincent - loveLV Celebrant, Brisbane
Louise Vincent from loveLV Celebrant in Brisbane believes in the power of quiet symbolism and ritual to help capture the enormity of big changes in our lives and to give it some structure. However, she also gets that a party is good too!
Louise describes herself as rather reserved in her approach and delivery – she wishes she could be more ‘out there’ but she’s not. This doesn’t mean she is boring nor straitlaced, but if it’s a semi-comedian you’re after, that’s not Louise. She will however be right by your side throughout all the ceremony crafting so it is exactly the way you want it.
For weddings, Louise offers 3 packages for you to choose from: a basic ‘legals only’ ceremony that takes all of 5 minutes; a classical standard-wording ceremony; or a fully personalised ceremony. To find out more about these, contact Louise here

Mel can help create a ceremony that feels as good as your fave pair of jeans or that old, daggy shirt that you just can’t throw out. The kind of ceremony that will make you smile, cause the manliest of men to shed a tear, and most importantly, keep your Nan wide awake.
