I Do by IsabellaGold Coast marriage celebrant

Relaxed, meaningful wedding ceremonies
that feel completely and unapologetically you.

Hello! I’m Izzy, your Gold Coast marriage celebrant.

Growing up, I always thought I would become a rockstar. Unfortunately, I later discovered that singing ability is a key requirement for that career path… so please don’t book me as your wedding singer.

What I did realise, though, is that I love performing, especially when there’s a microphone in my hand and a crowd to connect with.

My journey to becoming a celebrant started when my best friend asked me to be part of her wedding ceremony. I originally did it just for her, but it quickly became something I absolutely loved. It turns out being a celebrant lets me do all my favourite things – speaking to a crowd, creating meaningful moments, and celebrating love.

The best part of the job is creating ceremonies that feel completely personal to each couple. As a wedding celebrant, my goal is to craft something that reflects who you are. It’s about leaving your guests smiling (and maybe tearing up a little), and setting the tone for an incredible celebration ahead.

Your wedding ceremony should feel relaxed, meaningful, and unmistakably you. Whether you’re planning a full ceremony, an elopement, or a simple legals-only marriage, I’m here to guide you through the process. Together, we’ll keep things stress-free and create a moment you’ll remember for the rest of your lives.

If you’d like to start creating your perfect ceremony, I’d love to chat.

Common questions from Gold Coast couples

How much does a marriage celebrant cost on the Gold Coast?

Packages start from $500 for a legals only ceremony, $900 for elopements and micro weddings or shadow celebrant support, and $1,100 for a full ceremony. See all packages or read the Gold Coast celebrant cost guide.

Can we elope on the Gold Coast?

Yes. You need two witnesses and a Notice of Intended Marriage lodged at least one month before the ceremony. Beaches, parks and private homes all work. The Gold Coast elopement guide covers locations, permits and costs.

What is a legals only ceremony?

A short, simple ceremony with the legally required wording, the signing and all paperwork lodged with Births, Deaths and Marriages. It suits couples who want to make it official without a full ceremony. From $500.

What is a shadow celebrant?

A friend or family member leads your ceremony while Isabella, as your authorised celebrant, handles the legal wording and paperwork. From $900.

How far ahead should we book a celebrant?

The Notice of Intended Marriage must be lodged at least one month before your wedding, and up to 18 months ahead. Popular dates fill early, so get in touch as soon as you have a date. Here is how booking works.
