Phil here
your Blue Mountains marriage celebrant
providing elopement style weddings in the Blue Mountains
Looking for a Blue Mountains marriage celebrant who lives locally?
I can help you find the perfect bush venue, lookout or larger venue, and can assist in finding your photographer, florist or any other providers you may need here in the Blue Mountains.
It is also my pleasure to welcome your pet dog(s) to the weddings that I conduct as I know which venues are dog friuendly. “Good Different”
Specialising in fun weddings in the Blue Mountains at lookouts, hidden in the bush, lakeside, at larger venues or anywhere else you want is my focus. And I know them all. Do you want a small elopment style wedding? If so let me show you how you can have a wedding without the stress and expense of an overpriced venue wedding. In addition I can also arrange a photographer and witnesses if you want complete privacy. “Good Different”

Get To Know Phil
My passions are Italian opera, classical music, British comedy, recreational maths, some charity work on the side plus of course, weddings, and especially weddings with dogs.
Having conducted hundreds of weddings for couples wanting to marry in the peace and tranquility of the Blue Mountains, I have also been lucky enough to conduct weddings for many abseilers, rock climbers, canyoners and bush walkers wanting a wedding in a location where they feel at home. “Good Different”
What are the legal requirements to marry
Check out the legal requirements to marry on this link
Then call or text me on 0418 654 525, email happydaycelebrant@gmail.com or simply complete the enquiry form at the bottom of this page so I can advise availability on the day you have chosen. My simple price guide is found below. I only ever conduct one wedding on any day so I can focus on you alone on your special day.
With a no obligation chat to establish you have all the documents required so you can legally marry, we then arrange to sign the Notice of Intended Marriage Form (NOIM) which I provide. The document must be in my hands at least one calendar month before the wedding date duly signed and witnessed. …. it’s really that easy. “Good Different”

Current Pricing Options
(can be subject to change)
Micro Weddings & Elopements
The $640 fee includes an initial obligation free meeting with all legal documentation looked after and then your customised ceremony, lodgement with NSW BDM and I can even order the official certificate if you require for $75 (being cost +$8). For lookouts, I provide a portable, standing, signing table and a small public address system if required (but we have to keep the volume down so we don’t disturb the kookaburras).
Larger Venue Weddings
An all inclusive venue wedding will cost $840. This includes, in addition to the elopement style wedding options, supply of a large public address system customised to your venue’s acoustics with wireless microphone to suit up to 200 guests, plus on site rehearsal and I will also play your processional and recessional music.
There are no other hidden costs – that’s it.
