Just married weddings made our day easy and stress free. Emailed instructions along the way were easy to follow and kept us updated. We were assigned Lisa Newman as our celebrant and she was amazing. She made the day fun and stress free. A brilliant alternative to more traditional/registry processes. And the Queen Victoria Gardens location was beautiful with a variety of backgrounds for photos.

It was a quick but a very lovely ceremony. Hassle free for us and just right for our budget. Our celebrant Jonelle is so comfortable to be with. The Just Married admin as well is so prompt and provided us with everything we need. They even remind us with the things we need to submit. Thank You so much Just MArried Weddings. You made our wedding just the way we want it. Thank You

Incredible location for small ceremonies. My husband and I had an amazing time at our Sydney Harbour elopement with a small group of family. Jonelle was excellent and our ceremony ran smoothly. I highly recommend if you are wanting a smaller wedding.

We were married on South Perth foreshore, a really beautiful intimate ceremony. Our celebrant Brooke was really lovely and accommodating to our style of wedding. Overall the booking, paperwork and ceremony process was easy and no stress. I'm so glad we opted for South Perth foreshore vs Perth registry office.

We are incredibly grateful to have had Samantha Talbot-Sapsford from Just Married Weddings officiate our elopement at the Sydney Harbour Bridge on December 8. From the very beginning, she was warm, sincere, and genuinely invested in our love story. She took the time to understand us, and the ceremony she delivered was beautifully personal, heartfelt, and full of meaning. Every word felt intentional, making our wedding feel intimate and truly special despite being in such an iconic location.We would also like to sincerely thank Just Married Weddings for their seamless and professional service. Everything was handled so smoothly, and we were pleasantly surprised to receive our official marriage certificate in just three days. Samantha’s calming presence, genuine care, and dedication created a moment we will cherish forever.We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect celebrant or experience and highly recommend Samantha and Just Married Weddings to any couple looking for a heartfelt and stress-free elopement. 💍✨— Demie & Shan

I just had my wedding in Adelaide through Just Weddings and I was very happy with my experience. The whole process was very easy and when I had a slight issue (on my behalf) the team got back to my emails within a few hours. The location I chose was really lovely and the celebrant sent detailed instructions and maps on where to meet. My celebrant was Alison and I honestly could not have asked for a better celebrant to marry me. She greeted us and our guests warmly and asked us what we wanted from the ceremony. She kept in short (what we asked for) but included enough to still make it feel special and not official. She was a very lovely celebrant.5/5 for ease of process5/5 for ceremony location5/5 for the celebrant

We got married on the 24th of May and honestly couldn’t be happier that we chose Just Married Weddings for our special day! From start to finish, everything was seamless and stress-free. The entire process was incredibly easy – even when we needed to change the time of our ceremony, they were more than accommodating and made it feel like no trouble at all.Our celebrant, Michelle, was absolutely amazing. She was warm, professional, and made us feel so comfortable from the moment we met her. The ceremony was simple, heartfelt, and everything we wanted it to be. Michelle captured the essence of our relationship perfectly, and we truly felt like she cared about making our moment special.We’re so grateful to Just Married Weddings for making our day so easy, relaxed, and memorable. I will be recommending them to everyone !

My partner and I had a very good experience with Just Married Weddings. They were all very helpful at every step of the way. Our celebrant Samantha was wonderfully warm and friendly and very thoughtful, including bits of our personal story in the ceremony. Thanks so much to Samantha and the rest of the folks at JMW.
