You've Got The Love

You’re likely looking for someone who’ll make your love official in the most authentic way.
That’s my style—your way, sprinkled with my signature spark.

We can go crazy or keep it low key.
Want to shout your love from a rooftop, and have audience participation?
Maybe short and sweet is your thing?

Whatever it is, it’s your wedding day, and I would love to work with you to achieve the perfect ceremony (while meeting the legal marriage guidelines, of course).

Got a ‘Getting Hitched Bucket List’ full of ideas?
Let’s hear them!

Say hi

I have always loved parties—especially weddings. Since 2005, I have graced the wedding and events industry with my passion for celebrating the special moments in life. I’m proud to say, I’ve experienced and taken part in many hundreds of happy-successful wedding days!

I’ve shared and orchestrated romantic bliss as an Event Manager across Melbourne’s most desired wedding venues (hello Abbotsford Convent, Werribee Mansion, and more!), Entertainment Manager at Top Dog Entertainment and hero Sales Lady at Bride Magazine.—plus, oh so many other spaces and places.

But, being a marriage celebrant sure is my favourite gig.

I’m stoked that I get to add fun, laughter and happy tears to incredibly special days.

The way I see it, your celebration is about you.

So, you share your ideas and I’ll listen intently.

If you’re stuck or need some professional creativity thrown into the mix —I’ll have some rad ideas ready to go.

After all, you don’t just want a ‘memorable’ wedding, you want your guests to look back and say, #bestweddingever

LET'S CHAT

Lorena & James

“5 stars is no where near enough for Shelley! After reaching out to so many potential celebrants & FaceTiming with them all in hopes to see if they’d match us perfectly, no one stood out to us like Shelly did. Her down to earth & chilled vibe is what really sealed the deal for us. Her flexibility with time & having children herself made the whole process for us with zoom meetings more relaxed and real. On our special day, she was nothing short or amazing. She made guest laugh, feel welcomed & even made them shed a few tears (ok maybe a lot of tears- happy tears that is).

We’re really honoured to be married by you Shelley & can’t thank you enough!”

Shell & Steve

“I honestly wish I could give Shelley a million stars!!! Oh my goodness. How grateful we are that our first date got postponed and the universe sent us Shelley! In the lead up, Shelley was incredibly helpful. She made the documentation easy, and was so relaxed and made it a stress free time. She really made sure we knew it was our wedding, and we could do things our way! Shelley's energy is electric and the second we met her we knew she was supposed to marry us! We had a pre wedding meeting and it felt like we were with one of our best friends! Then where do I even begin with on the actual day?! I had multiple people ask us if Shelley was a family friend, because she knew us so well and that the ceremony was "so us!"

She really captured the vibe we wanted, the balance of love and fun, and made us both feel so relaxed and comfortable! She was so helpful, running around and doing all the things I wouldn't have even thought! Her attention to detail was insane!!!! We were lucky enough to have Shelley MC for us too! Everyone loved her, wanted her to stay with us all night and again, felt like Shelley really knew them like she has always been a part of our lives!Shelley we loved having you and you really made our wedding so special!! If we ever renew our vows, we are calling you straight away!!! We love you! Hehe.”

Bryce & Kathryn

“What can you say? Hmmm "perfection"? Maybe? From start to finish Shelley was amazing. We had great contact, we got along, Shelly knew exactly what she was doing. I honestly don't know what to say, just look at the 5 stars. Ok, I'll say this. Shelley was professional, she was amazing, she wrote the most amazing script for our wedding. She was personal, she was fun, she was great. We could not have picked a better celebrant. One of my friends at the wedding asked "Was the celebrant your friend?" - that's how much Shelley got to know us and what we wanted for our wedding. Shelley gave us ideas of what to do, how to make it fun, looked after all the legal stuff and just made us feel at ease on our wedding day. As Molly Meldrum used to used to say "Do yourself a favour" and book Shelley as your celebrant. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Shelley, we had an amazing day and we are forever thankful.”
