Thanks for stopping by
I'm Lynette McDonald, a registered Australian Civil Marriage Celebrant, and I'm excited to be part of your special day. With my warm and friendly personality, and a touch of humour, I'll make sure that your ceremony is both meaningful and enjoyable.
As a lover of creative ceremonies and rituals, I'm a believer in individuality, and that your ceremony should reflect your unique personality and style. I'm here to help you craft a ceremony that is one-of-a-kind, just like the two of you.
Meeting new people and making them happy is one of my favourite things and being a celebrant allows me to create wonderful experiences for my couples.
Being a professional celebrant means that I have no other obligations - other than being your celebrant in the lead up to and on the day of your ceremony.
So let's work together and make your wedding day unforgettable!
Me the Celebrant
My journey to becoming a celebrant started when I married my husband in 2018. Our celebrant due to unfortunate circumstances rocked up an hour late for the ceremony, but hey I am resourceful and can remain calm when faced with a challenge.
Luckily our guests and photographer were there, ready and waiting for our ceremony to start. So we just turned the whole thing upside down and started with the photographs first. The sun was shining, and we were in a beautiful setting, so why not?
We had a great deal of fun shooting some great pics, and by the time our celebrant arrived, everyone was relaxed and mingling – just what I reckon made the day much more memorable.
I’ve always loved organising events, conferences, and all sorts of get-togethers, it’s what connects me to people, so my next career was naturally becoming a celebrant, and I love it!
A little about me
When someone asks me to describe myself, I often feel like I'm trying to catch a cloud - there are so many different sides to me that it's hard to sum it all up!
I'm the kind of person who loves to live life to the fullest and make the most of every moment. Whether I'm dancing the night away or exploring new places and trying new things, I'm always up for the adventure.
Music is a huge part of my life, and I'm always on the lookout for the perfect playlist to match any mood or occasion. And when it comes to food and drinks, I love all things 'flavour' and I'm always down for champagne toasts or sampling the latest craft beers or wine tastings.
But most off all, I believe that love and life are all about creating memorable experiences. That's why I'm a celebrant - to help you create the ultimate wedding ceremony that you'll remember for a lifetime.
