Marriage Celebrant Concord

Finding the right marriage celebrant in Concord is about more than just meeting legal requirements. Your wedding ceremony should reflect the love and connection you share, and I’m here to make sure it’s as meaningful as you’ve envisioned. As a licensed celebrant appointed by the Attorney-General of Australia, I am passionate about bringing each couple’s story to life through a ceremony crafted with care.

Your wedding day deserves to be a heartfelt reflection of your personalities, beliefs, and shared journey. Whether you’re planning an intimate backyard celebration, a grand ballroom event, or a relaxed ceremony by the water, I tailor every aspect to suit your vision. My goal is to make the process easy and enjoyable — so you can focus on celebrating your love while I handle the finer details.

  We had the pleasure of having Betty as our celebrant, and we couldn’t be happier! She is incredibly experienced, organised, and always on time — someone you can truly rely on for your big day. Betty was so thoughtful with every little detail, often reminding us of things we hadn’t even thought about and offering helpful suggestions along the way.
What we really appreciated was how she customised everything to suit us — making our ceremony feel personal, meaningful, and unique to our story. Her professionalism and calm presence made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
Highly recommend Betty to any bride or groom-to-be — you’ll be in the best hands! 💛

  We hired Betty as our celebrant for a same sex wedding in Sydney.  As we had many guests from overseas and for whom English was not their first language, we needed someone that could speak both English and Cantonese and Betty certainly delivered. Betty was reliable, efficient and on time to every single appointment we had, and put a lot of effort into getting to know us so she could deliver a personalised ceremony for us and our guests. Her organisation and attention to detail was really impressive. Any switches between languages felt seamless and natural and the personalisations added a really warm touch. I would not hesitate to recommend Betty to any couple looking for a celebrant.

  We had the pleasure of having Betty as our wedding celebrant for both our tea ceremony and civil ceremony, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She conducted everything beautifully in bilingual, and took the time to tailor her welcoming speech and the entire ceremony around our personal story and journey as a couple.
From the initial planning to the post-wedding follow-up, she guided us through the entire legal and ceremonial process with clarity and warmth. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and personal touch made the day even more meaningful for us and our families. We are so grateful and would happily recommend her to any couple looking for a celebrant who truly cares.

  My partner (now wife!) found Betty after a few nights of desperate emails and searching for a celebrant. We have a diverse and multilingual set of families, and for Betty to provide bilingual services in Cantonese, it was an absolute plus. Despite the very short turnaround, which was totally on us as an oversight, Betty was polite, patient and absolutely professional every step of the way.
From our first online meeting, through to our in-person, in-depth conversation, Betty was able to gather the essence of our relationship and make our wedding day a spectacular success. I recommend her services to anyone, not just those in the Cantonese-speaking community. Her clear and calm demeanour through the ceremony was fantastic and she was praised by our guests.
Thank you Betty!

  We had a small, intimate ceremony, and Betty made it absolutely perfect! From the first meeting, they understood exactly what we were looking for – something simple, yet meaningful. The ceremony was beautiful and personal, and we felt so comfortable throughout the whole process. She made sure everything was smooth and stress-free, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a wonderful celebrant for a small ceremony!

  We are so pleased to have Betty as our marriage celebrant.
Picking a celebrant was the first thing we did and one of the hardest parts of our wedding planning. After reaching out a few celebrants, we knew Better would be the best choice. From the beginning, she was incredibly attentive and took the time to get to know us as a couple. She was so professional with her guidance and reminders throughout the whole process, providing a lot of helpful information.
Betty has been so prompt, professional, warm, friendly and ready to help at every turn. She delivered a beautiful and heartful ceremony that truly reflected our love story. We are incredibly grateful to Betty for making our wedding so special and memorable. We highly recommend Betty to anyone.
Thank you, Betty, for being such an important part of our wedding day.

  Betty helped us so much in preparation for our wedding. We needed to pursue a shortening of time and Betty was so punctual and worked hard to make it happen. If anyone is looking for a bilingual celebrant, I cant recommend Betty enough!

  We engaged Betty for a wedding in both English and Cantonese, and it made all the difference for our guest experience. Older relatives who were not as fluent in English felt honoured, and in turn they were more engaged and emotionally invested in the beautiful wedding ceremony. Betty was able to turn our couple's story into a compelling narrative, which goes to show the amount of love and care she invested in her brides and grooms. Would highly recommend Betty to couples dreaming of a romantic, bespoke wedding ceremony.

How It Works: A Simple and Stress-Free Process

Every ceremony deserves care and attention. Here’s what you can expect when you choose me as your marriage celebrant in Concord:

1. Initial Consultation

Our journey begins with a relaxed meeting to discuss your ideas and expectations. This consultation lets us connect so you can feel confident and comfortable with my role in your day.

During this stage, I’ll take time to understand your story — how you met, what makes your relationship special, and the kind of atmosphere you’d like to create. I’ll also share examples of previous ceremonies and ideas for vows, readings, or cultural elements that could enhance your celebration.

2. Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM)

I’ll guide you through completing the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) form, an essential legal document required under the Marriage Act. With my help, you can feel confident that all the details are taken care of, making the process simple and hassle-free.

For couples planning from overseas or interstate, I can assist with the paperwork remotely and provide detailed checklists so you’ll know exactly what’s needed. This helps streamline the process, particularly for destination weddings or elopements in Concord and surrounding Sydney areas.

3. Ceremony Rehearsal

As an experienced marriage celebrant in Concord, I encourage a rehearsal before the wedding day to make sure everything flows seamlessly. Together, we’ll walk through the ceremony to ensure everyone understands their part. This lets you feel fully prepared and relaxed and enjoy every moment when the day arrives.

Rehearsals are also a great opportunity to test music timing, microphone setup, and processional order — ensuring every cue runs smoothly. Couples often say this step helps them feel calm and excited rather than nervous on the day.

4. The Wedding Day

When your big day arrives, I’ll officiate your wedding with warmth and professionalism, guiding you through every moment, from vows to rings and the signing of the marriage register.

You can count on me to bring a calm, joyful energy that helps everyone feel at ease — from your bridal party to your guests. I arrive early to check logistics, coordinate with photographers and venue staff, and ensure everything is perfectly in place before you walk down the aisle.

5. Marriage Registration

After the ceremony, I will submit the necessary documents to the Registry of Births, Deaths & Marriages (BDM) within three business days. I can help you apply for an official marriage certificate, making this final step as easy as possible.

Many couples also appreciate my post-ceremony guidance — from changing your surname to ordering commemorative certificates. I’m here to make sure the transition from wedding day to married life is seamless and stress-free.

Let’s Create Your Perfect Ceremony

Reach out today to schedule a consultation. I’m here to make your wedding day in Concord truly unforgettable.

Whether you’re planning a ceremony in Queen Elizabeth Park, a riverside setting along the Parramatta River, or an indoor venue in Sydney’s Inner West, I’ll help bring your ideas to life with professionalism and heart. Let’s collaborate to design a wedding ceremony that captures your story, celebrates your connection, and leaves you and your guests smiling long after the final kiss.

Your love story is one of a kind — and your ceremony should be too.
