My name is Andrea Brown, a fully accredited marriage celebrant, a hopeless romantic and former wedding coordinator with over 10 years of experience (so I’ve truly seen it all).
I believe the marriage ceremony is the heart of your wedding day, and I love creating moments that feel intimate, meaningful, and personalised to be completely you.
I’m based in Sydney but travel all over for love stories that deserve to be celebrated, wherever they unfold.
I’m also a wife, a proud mum of two teenage boys, a devoted dog lover, and slightly obsessed with jewellery (okay, very obsessed).
If you are after a celebrant who brings a touch of style, elegance, warmth, fun, and a whole lot of heart, I’d love to be part of your very special day and help you create memories that will last a lifetime. Please get in touch, I’d love to get to know you.

Your wedding should be a true reflection of your love story, joyful, meaningful, and full of ease. That’s where I come in.
I create ceremonies that are warm, heartfelt, and filled with emotion, so much so that you and your guests will feel like I’m a close friend or even part of the family.
Whether you envision something fun and lighthearted or a deeply romantic, sentimental moment, I’ll work with you as a couple to create a ceremony that captures the essence of your unique bond.
Every word, every detail, will be tailored to reflect the love you share and the journey you're about to take together.
From start to finish, I’ll be there to guide you, support you, and cheer you on every step of the way.
Andrea Brown was the heart of our ceremony, warm, professional, and truly thoughtful.
She took the time to get to know us and crafted a service that felt personal and unforgettable.

Gosh! What can I say. Andrea conducted our ceremony in Santorini, Greece. We couldn't have asked for a better celebrant for our magical day. Andrea was warm and professional, and not only made us feel comfortable, she was also a highlight for our guests whom she had laughing and smiling the whole ceremony. Andrea made the whole process stress-free and really took the time to get to know us. Her attention to detail and ability to extract nuances about us and our relationship meant that our ceremony and the spoken words will always be remembered. I've been to many beautiful weddings but this one felt so genuine and heartfelt. Don't bother searching further for the most perfect celebrant, you have found her! A beautiful soul who genuinely cares, communicates directly and brings a calm and joy to your special day.

I bring my own top of the range Bose PA system which is portable and has blue tooth capability for your ceremony music.
The first legal step on your journey to “I do” is completing the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM). This must be signed and witnessed by your celebrant at least one calendar month before your wedding day.
Closer to your ceremony, you’ll also complete a Declaration of No Legal Impediment to Marriage (DONLIM)—usually at the rehearsal or just before the ceremony begins. The remaining legal documents are signed during the ceremony itself, as part of your special moment.
Once everything is complete, I will lodge your paperwork with Births, Deaths and Marriages, ensuring your marriage is legally registered and officially recognised.
Yes I travel all over Sydney, beyond and abroad.
Rehearsals look different for every couple. Some love gathering their entire bridal party for a full run-through, while others prefer a zoom call with just the three of us the week before to cover the logistics. However you choose to prepare, my role is to make sure you feel confident, comfortable, and at ease knowing exactly what to expect on your big day.
Once we’ve had our initial meet and greet and your date is officially locked in, we’ll pause for a little while. About 4 to 5 months before your ceremony, that’s when the magic really begins.
I’ll be in touch to gather some important details that I need from you to begin my preparation, and then we will schedule a planning meeting. During this time, we’ll complete the first piece of legal paperwork—the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM). I’ll prepare the form using the information you provide, and we’ll sign it together (either in person or over Zoom), with me as your authorised witness.
From there, we’ll dive into your love story—the meaningful moments, the laughter, the little things that make your connection so special. This is where the heart of your ceremony takes shape, as I begin creating a script that is truly and uniquely yours.
At the ceremony you will need two witnesses present, both over the age of 18.
Every couple’s ceremony is unique, from the style and location to the number of guests. To make sure I can give you the right quote, I’d love to hear what you have in mind. Give me a call or send me an email, and we can have a relaxed chat about your vision for the day.
Once I’ve confirmed I’m available for your date, I’ll send you a booking form to fill out. To lock in your ceremony, a booking fee of 30% of the total fee is required within 14 days. Once the form and payment is received, this secures your spot and holds your special date just for you.
Now the countdown to your big day begins!
