Who's this Adam guy?
Hey, I'm Adam. I'm a Marriage Celebrant, MC, and what some may call a fun guy formerly based in Sydney's Inner West, I now call Newcastle home. I enjoy having a beer, listening to good tunes, and hanging out with dogs. Since being asked to be part of my brother's wedding as a celebrant many years ago, I found a love and passion for being a part of two people's big day!
I'm a firm believer that a wedding should be a reflection of you. I’m all about injecting the fun, involving your guests, and making it the best part of the whole bloody day.
It's out with the old and dull ceremonies and in with the weddings full of absolute joy - setting the tone for the party to come! With your guidance, we will create a unique, energetic, and unforgettable ceremony like no other. I will have your crew laughing, cheering, and even having a good ol’ ugly cry. All the feels, every single one of 'em.
CEREMONIES
THAT
ARE
UNIQUELY
UNAPOLOGETICALLY
& BEAUTIFULLY
YOU
Newcastle and Hunter Valley Celebrant
What the people say!
We moved on, begrudgingly, with a slight hole in our wedding planning hearts and booked another celebrant, who was good... But we knew Adam was the celebrant that got away.
As we approached our wedding date we got the news, global pandemic... Which meant just one thing... ADAM WAS NO LONGER BOOKED FOR OUR NEW DATE, thank god for covid!
Whilst waiting an extra year to get married was not ideal, in all honesty, having Adam as our celebrant was a silver lining in our covid wedding.
Adam was everything we thought he would be as our celebrant, plus so much more.
Adam was so good that people thought he was a really entertaining, charming, hilarious and extremely articulate family member or family friend.
They would say, which side of the family is he on?
but how did he know you both so well? He captured the essence of your relationship like only someone close to you could, what do you mean you only met him twice?
He certainly has a very unique ability to become a friend in an instant.
Even though it has been several months since our wedding, we still hear almost weekly "Your celebrant was just something else, absolutely amazing" "He was the best celebrant I've ever seen" "God your celebrant was so talented" "If I ever get married then I am booking your celebrant" "That was the best wedding ceremony I've ever been to, and I've been going to weddings for 40 years." To say we are still to this day getting rave reviews is an understatement.
Adam has the most beautiful nature, he is effortlessly funny, so comfortable and reassuring. He was enthusiastic about creating the ceremony that we wanted and took our ideas and simply elevated them. He has a thoughtful and considerate attention to detail and we felt so blessed to have him with us on our wedding day.
Words do not do justice to what Adam added to our wedding, he was perfect for us and we could not have imagined being married by anyone else.
If I had one tip for any other couples reading these reviews and considering booking Adam, it would be, don't delay, book him today or you'll spend the rest of your life thinking about the celebrant that got away.
So many of our guests let us know how brilliant they thought Adam was, and how he was “just so Gabby & Rob”. Many even asked if he was a friend of ours as the banter and storytelling was spot on.
Adam is an absolute legend and we couldn’t recommend him more!
His humour and charm had all of our guests raving about him for the rest of the night. He was able to create the exact atmosphere we were hoping for our ceremony, from laughter to tears it was better than we could've imagined.
I would give him more stars if I could, absolutely fantastic celebrant.
When we set out to get married, we wanted to throw a party. A celebration of everyone and everything special to us. From arriving together and dancing onto the green, drawing our witnesses out of hat and signing our certificate in the pokies room, we wanted the day to be a reflection of us and nothing remotely normal.
We wanted a celebrant that would match the brief and help make it a reality. Adam expected the challenge with gusto and goodness did he deliver!
From our initial meeting, helping with the creation of our vows, and answering all of our (many) questions, Adam was a pleasure to deal with and made sure we were comfortable and confident. The intimacy that Adam brings to his ceremonies is something else and meant that it felt like we had one of our closest friends delivering the ceremony. The endless laughter, joy, spontaneity and a cheeky rick roll that Adam brought was so refreshing and engaging.
Definitely recommend and again can't speak more highly of this amazing human being. He was the talk of the wedding and rightfully so!

My husband and I are newly married and had the privilege of hanging out and making things official with this legend. Adam was highly recommended to us by our photographer and thank goodness the stars aligned / the heavens opened up / the birds sang (etc) because we couldn’t imagine going with anyone else.
We met at the pub because Adam is cool like that, we talked for ages and went on all the tangents. We quite often had to keep bringing the conversation back to the reason we were all there.
Adam was just incredible, he just got us and every time we spoke or met up it just felt like we were hanging out with a mate. This I discovered, was actually really important to me when choosing a celebrant as I wanted someone that my husband would feel comfortable opening up to. He also really knows his stuff which is good too.
Our wedding was always going to be quite small but with the COVID-19 pandemic and all the challenges and changes that came with that, it became even smaller. Adam, with his stress-free approach and easy going attitude, was SO accommodating and handled everything like a champion, offering to help in any way he could. Just, what a guy. He absolutely delivered by creating a ceremony that felt real and natural, not too serious and just really us. He was fun and goofy, having us in stitches one moment and then feeling all the feels the next. We absolutely couldn’t not recommend Adam enough.
Adam, if you manage to find a celebrant even half as amazing as you for your own wedding then you’re in for a truly incredible day!
We booked Adam as both our celebrant and MC, and he made the day so special and entertaining - we have had lots of comments about how good he was! We wanted our day to be relaxed and fun, and it was absolutely perfect.
We felt so comfortable with Adam the entire time, and we have no doubt that he is one of the main reasons why our wedding was so perfect, and he really went above and beyond for us when we had to postpone our wedding earlier in the year.
Definitely get in contact with him!!
The ceremony was so personalised and heart-felt. He was also the MC for our reception, and made sure it all ran smoothly and that we were kept up-to-date with everything that was going on. You can tell that Adam is passionate about what he does, and man he does it well. Just look at that cheesy grin on my partner's face!! Worth every single penny.
Adam made sure all of the legal stuff was done and made the ceremony about us, had our guests involved and engaged and made the whole day reflect us as a couple to a tee.
Adam felt like a friend and many of our guests had asked us how long we have known him for. Our guests and myself and my now husband had nothing but praise for Adam.
I could write paragraphs about how much of a legend Adam is but I’ll end my review with if you’re looking for a celebrant BOOK THIS GUY NOW! I wish we could get married again just to have him around!!! Thanks Adam xx
Adam stuck by us through not one, but three wedding dates due to postponements.
He made the whole process such a breeze and his warm witty nature made the whole experience so much fun.
Our wedding day was incredible.. more then we could have ever imagined and a big part of that is thanks to him.
He tailored our ceremony perfectly to us and all our guests have not stopped raving on about him since.
So much so, they all assumed he had to be one of our close mates! and strangely enough, we both came out of the whole experience feeling the same way.
His ability to create a loving, warm, funny and meaningful experience is one in a million.
When you book Adam, you're booking one of the key aspects of your day, and it will be one that you and your guests will not be disappointed with.
He made us both feel so comfortable and kept our wedding relaxed, fun & cheeky but also full of love just like we had always imagined our special day being.
My only other recommendation is that you also book him as your MC.
He is an absolute VIBE!

Got your celebrant, how about the coordinator?
Take the stress out of your special day with an experienced wedding coordinator, whom I'm also married to.
