Brad Peters is a Melbourne-based Australian Civil Marriage Celebrant.

I set out to get registered to officiate marriages after one too many friends and relatives asked if I was able to perform their wedding.

Apparently, I have big celebrant energy, and I’d love to be able to bring that to bring your dream wedding to life.

I’ve always treated weddings as Serious Business. As a young child, I was pageboy at my uncle’s wedding, and it was made very clear to me that looking after the rings was a big important job – I wasn’t to lose them or give them to anybody else. Sadly, no one thought to explain to me that at a certain point in the ceremony, I would have to give them to the Celebrant.
