Diana Kelly Celebrant

Hi, I’m Diana, your Marriage Celebrant & MC

I know planning your wedding can feel overwhelming at times so let me start by saying this: by the time we’re standing together on your big day, it’s going to feel easy.

That’s my job, and it’s one I love.

After a long career in film, TV and theatre, I made the move from Sydney to the Southern Highlands, chasing the fresh country air and a slower, more grounded way of life. That background on stage and screen taught me a lot about connection, timing, and how to make people feel completely at ease in front of a crowd – and I bring all of that into every ceremony I write.

My style is natural and honest, with plenty of room for a laugh when something spontaneous happens (and something always does!). I’m not here to deliver a generic script. I want to know your story; how you met, the silly nickname only you two use, the moment you knew,  because that’s what makes your ceremony feel like yours and no one else’s. Getting to know you both is genuinely my favourite part.

I love working with couples throughout Bowral, Mittagong, Moss Vale, Exeter, Robertson, Berrima and the surrounding villages, and I’m always happy to travel further,  most areas of Sydney, down to the Wollongong & Shoalhaven for those of you in Berry, Nowra or Kiama, or up towards Goulburn, Canberra.

Outside of ceremonies, I run a cosy B&B in Moss Vale where I’ve hosted more wedding guests than I can count, and Highland Nannies, a babysitting service that supports so many families and wedding parties across this region. So don’t be surprised if you spot my team quietly helping things run smoothly at weddings all over the Highlands.

However you’re feeling right now, excited, a little nervous, not sure where to start, I’d love to sit down with you, hear your story, and help you feel completely at ease about the ceremony ahead.

What some of my couples are saying:

 “Warm, comforting, and such a lovely presence, you were everything we wanted in celebrant.”

“Diana hit the nail on the head with the ceremony we were after – right down to the witnesses and refreshments. We couldn’t have asked for anything more suited to us.”

 “Highly knowledgeable, kind & accommodating from start to finish. Diana walked us through everything, calmed our nerves the day before, and then took the reins completely on the big day – one less thing to worry about. We’d recommend her to any couple after a relaxed, helpful celebrant.”

Calm, warm, and completely in her element – Diana gave our day the exact touch we were after, and we’ll remember it fondly forever.”

“Truly wonderful. We’re so grateful for your time and patience with us.”
