KAIN AND JAMIEE RAYNER

The first word that comes to mind is incredible.
Shayne blew us away with the support and guidance for every single detail.  When we had had any questions or concerns Shayne didn’t hesitate to meet up or to find a way to guide us in the right direction. He is everything we needed and more. 
Shayne was our celebrant and our MC he had our guests in laughing fits. I would recommend Shayne to anybody. The Witt but also the professionalism made us feel so at ease, Shayne ensured the night went perfectly. 
Thank you so so much Shayne you made our day complete. Our guests were asking where we found you and saying how amazing you were. 
Shaynes wife Gaye also played a huge part. Her friendly advise and calm nature really helped with the nerves and gave us all peace of mind.
We would 100% recommend Shayne and Gaye to anyone in need of a celebrant or MC.

First and last time I'll ever get married. Will definitely be recommending Shayne to anyone who wants a stress free wedding and a relaxed atmosphere during the ceremony. 
He was such a huge help leading up to the big day and the day itself went ahead without any issues. 
Many thanks Shayne, hoped for a perfect day and we got just that.

SHANE & JO

Shayne was our celebrant who helped make our special day that much easier for us! Neither me or my husband like to have all the attention on us let alone say our vows to each other in front of a whole lot of people. Shayne made this so much easier for us with his relaxed approach. He is professional, funny and very organised. He went above and beyond to ensure our wedding had no glitches and came to the rescue when the sound system we had organised for speeches wouldn't work. the The 29th March was an amazing day for us and one he helped create once in a lifetime memories that we will cherish forever.

MATT & ALEX KING

GARY & CATIE

We were very fortunate to be married by Shayne Elliott on 14 March 2024 and he was indispensable on the day and prior to. This was all the more special as he had been the celebrant at our daughter/stepdaughter's wedding a few years prior. Shayne and his lovely wife Gaye exceeded all expectations and we feel very privileged to have had them be a key part of our special day. Gaye was incredibly helpful with any last-minute tasks that needed to be done and a calming presence to be around. Shayne was fabulous at the rehearsal and gave clear direction and insight which made for a smooth ceremony

CAITLIN & JADEEN

Celebrant Shayne was great easy to talk to did all the hard work we just told him all about us and he made in into a great ceremony like he really knew us.

JOANIE & IAN

The first time we met Shayne and his lovely wife, they gave us instant peace of mind. Shayne was funny, informative, calming and reassuring. He gave us lots of options and suggestions and this made the job so much easier. He emailed and kept in touch throughout the time leading up to the actual day. On the day, he called in to see me on the way to the wedding to make sure I was keeping happy and calm and then kept my husband- to-be calm until I got there. The ceremony was light, funny and short, just how we wanted it. Even when we had a slight crisis with the venue, he jumped in and offered to lend a hand. I would recommend him for any wedding, or any other occasion where a celebrant is required. Thank you Shayne for everything you did to make our day beautiful. Xx

LISA MURRAY

Thank you for such a smooth running amazing ceremony! You made my job of maid of honor a breeze.

SHAUN & SHANNON

My husband Shaun and I got married on the 11th February. We had Shayne as our celebrant and MC. He was not only amazing at both but very professional. He is a great character and has a very warming, kind, understanding personality. He is very helpful and makes sure you have all the right steps made correctly. Shayne is highly recommended by my husband and I. He rocks!

ASHLEE & DILLION

My partner and I met him over a beer and we instantly knew he was our type of celebrant. He kept in contact with us throughout and got us to answer a few questionnaires to get to know the kind of couple we are. He officiated a perfect wedding. He made it to the rehearsal and calmed our nerves by explaining the ceremony step by step. Great pricing for an awesome Celebrant!

SHIREE LEE

We have just returned home from attending a beautiful farm wedding officiated and M.C.’d by Shayne. From beginning to end Shayne was the consummate professional taking care of every detail from reassuring the nervous groom, planning and presenting a beautiful heartfelt ceremony and ensuring that the bridal party, family and guests were all looked after. Shayne’s warmth, humour, confidence and presence made the day run smoothly and that there was love in every moment. I heartily recommend him for your celebration.

HANNAH & TAYLOR

Shayne was an amazing celebrant. He put in so much thought, effort and time to make sure that everything went smoothly and that we enjoyed our wedding day.
Shayne kept us both on track with all our wedding planning as if can be overwhelming at times. We both apprieciate everything he has done for us and our day went absolutely perfect. Our friends and family loved how he made the ceremony personal to us and really understood both of us as individuals and a couple. Shayne helped push the nerves away and helped us to relax and just take in the whole day. We will 100% recommend Shayne to anyone else getting married and just want to say a huge thanks for everything he has done for us xx

Heres to raising a glass of champagne to Shayne Elliott, my son and daughter in laws celebrant on their happy day. Shayne not only organised a beautiful sunny day for the ceremony, but he kept the groom cool, calm and collected. A true feat in itself. He was funny, witty, warm and truly professional to boot. He obviously loves what he does and it shows. Thank you, my friend, you did a grand job. Polly Rabbits, mum of the groom. Xxx
