Meet Ellie
Hi, I'm Ellie! Mum to four amazing humans, one very spoiled fur baby, and when I’m not chasing them around, I’m a wedding celebrant and absolutely love what I do.
I'm originally from Mexico (yep, I do ceremonies in Spanish too!), came to Australia for uni (many moons ago), met my husband, and never left. We're based on the gorgeous southern end of the Gold Coast, and honestly, I can't imagine living anywhere else.
When I'm not marrying couples, I'm usually either working with kids or in full mum mode - chasing kids, squeezing in a beach swim (or three), or punching things at my morning boxing class. It's the best way to start the day, trust me. I'm also that person who loves a spontaneous adventure. You know, those random little outings where you have no idea where you'll end up but somehow it becomes the best day ever.
Being a celebrant? It's the best job in the world. I get so into each couple's story; rehearsing ceremonies, thinking about vows while I'm doing the dishes, standing up there on the big day with my face hurting from smiling so much. I genuinely love every second.
There's something so special about watching two people promise forever. The nerves, the happy tears, the way a bride lights up when she sees her groom, and that moment when he first catches sight of her - it gets me every single time. Every ceremony is different, but they all have that same beautiful truth: love that's so real you can feel it.
Behind the scenes, my husband is basically my secret weapon. He's calm, organised, and remembers details about couples that even I forget sometimes (which is saying something, because I'm obsessed). He helps with everything, and honestly, I couldn't do this without him.
Here's the thing - I get attached to my couples. By the time your wedding day comes around, we've chatted so much that when it's over, I genuinely miss you. I call it "post-wedding break-up syndrome." It's real, and it's bittersweet.
Whether you're planning a quiet elopement, a quick legal signing, or a full beach celebration with all your favourite people, I promise to make your ceremony feel completely, authentically you (and yes, at a price that’s affordable - check out my packages).
Let’s create something amazing together. ✨
