Celebrating Love, on the Coffs Coast

Whether you're planning a wedding, elopement, legals-only ceremony or vow renewal, I’m here to create something heartfelt, relaxed, and uniquely you. I offer celebrant services across the Coffs Coast including Coffs Harbour, Bellingen, Dorrigo, and surrounding regions as well as the Northern Rivers, Gold Coast, Brisbane and beyond.

Your Coffs Coast Wedding Celebrant, Storyteller & Calm in the Chaos

Hi, I’m Maree, a celebrant who believes that every ceremony should feel relaxed, personal, and full of heart. Based near Bellingen, I work with couples across the Coffs Coast. From the coastal charm of Coffs Harbour, Urunga and Sawtell, to the rainforest beauty of Dorrigo creating ceremonies that feel like you, not something pulled from a script.

Over the years, I’ve come to know that the best ceremonies are built on trust, laughter, and a little bit of magic. I’ll take the time to get to know your story, help you feel confident with the legal steps, and bring a calm, steady presence to your day.

Whether you're having a barefoot wedding on the beach, something small in your backyard, or a quiet elopement in the hills, I’ll help make your moment feel meaningful and truly memorable.

My approach is all about genuine connection, thoughtful detail, and making sure you feel supported every step of the way.

Let’s create something beautiful together right here on the Coffs Coast.

Here’s what working with me is like:

  • You’ll feel heard, I’m here to listen and learn what makes your relationship unique.

  • You’ll get ideas, I’ve got plenty of readings, rituals, and fun ceremony twists to share.

  • You’ll feel organised, I handle all the legal stuff and guide you every step of the way.

  • You’ll feel calm, even if you’re nervous, I’ll help you feel confident and relaxed on the day.

  • You’ll probably have a laugh or two and maybe a happy tear (or ten).

Whether it’s your wedding day, renewing vows, or welcoming a new little human to the world, I’ll help create a ceremony that feels natural, joyful, and totally you.

Let’s make some magic together and maybe a few memories that last a lifetime.

All the Feels, None of the Stress

Wedding Ceremonies

Whether it’s a beach wedding in Sawtell, a farm celebration in Bellingen, a backyard wedding in Woolgoolga or a private garden in Coffs Harbour, I’ll help you design a ceremony that’s genuine, relaxed and beautifully personal with all the legal details taken care of.

Elopements

Elopements are perfect for couples who want an intimate, low-key celebration without the stress of a big event. Whether it’s just the two of you or a few close loved ones, I’ll help create a relaxed and heartfelt ceremony in one of the many beautiful spots across the Coffs Coast from quiet beaches to forest hideaways.

Micro Weddings

Looking for something intimate but still full of celebration? Micro weddings are the perfect balance. Whether you're planning a relaxed garden wedding or something special at a local venue, I’ll help you create a meaningful & joyful experience across the Coffs Coast, from the hinterland of Bellingen to the beaches of Sawtell and beyond.

Legal’s Only

If you’re after a quick, no-frills ceremony to make it official, I offer legals-only services across the Coffs Coast. We’ll meet at an agreed location, complete the required wording and paperwork, and I’ll lodge everything for you.

Renewal of Vows

Celebrate your journey with a Coffs Coast ceremony that honours everything you’ve built together. Whether it’s 5 years or 50, I’ll help you reflect on your love story and renew your vows with warmth and meaning.

Love Notes From Happy Couples

Maree was amazing from the moment I first called her, I just knew that with her everything would be easy and I wasn’t wrong. She was kind, bubbly, welcoming and most importantly made myself and my now husband feel more than comfortable with everything, we were both quite nervous about the ceremony, but she put our minds at ease every step of the way! Her script was beautiful, everything we could have asked for. We had the most perfect ceremony and full credit goes to Maree. We couldn’t recommend her more!

- Ash & Riley

Whether you're planning a backyard wedding in Bellingen, a beachside elopement in Sawtell, or a simple legal ceremony in Coffs Harbour, I’d love to help you create a moment that feels true to you and unforgettable in all the right ways. I regularly travel across the Coffs Coast, Dorrigo Plateau, and surrounding areas to officiate ceremonies of all shapes and sizes.

Planning from further away? No stress. We can chat over the phone, by email, or on a video call as many times as you need. I’ll make sure everything is organised and easy, no matter where you're coming from.

And if you’re unsure whether I travel to your location, just ask. If I can get there, I’ll be there (with bells on... and a ceremony folder in hand!)
