G’day! I’m Lachie! Aka Weddings by the BEARD

I’m an exciting and vibrant Marriage Celebrant in Melbourne and I believe you should have the wedding ceremony you deserve!

We’re done with boring, drawn out, impersonal ceremonies. I individually build ceremonies specifically for the tone and vibe you want to carry into the rest of the day. I think ceremonies can get a bad wrap sometimes. They don’t have to be “That boring legal thing that happens before the bar opens”!

If you want your day to be a party, why not start it from minute one!? Similarly, that goes for any energy you are hoping for; if you want it to be a relaxed and comfortable time, or a moving and poetic moment, let’s make sure that happens from the moment you rock up!

I’ll take on all the stress and build the wedding that YOU want, a ceremony that is fun, heartfelt, engaging and as unique and special as your relationship!

Without it sounding too much like a humble-brag, I’ve been called a ‘master of [my] craft’
I really love adding that personal feel to your wedding day. I truly want you both, and all your guests to be comfy! If you can actually be yourselves on the day and not feel like you’re being performative or ‘wearing a mask’ you’re guaranteed to have a good time!

“Lachie was able to capture our story perfectly. He made us feel comfortable and at ease not only on the wedding day but throughout the entire process.” – Grace + Liam

I’m all about ensuring everyone, including your friends and family, have a blast! I will take care of everything, including sound, printing, paperwork, and even crafting a personalised script unique to you! 

I offer 2 fun packages: a Premium Bespoke package with all the trimmings and a simple Legals-Only option.

“He is so amazing, down to earth, fun, very easy to work with, extremely organised and just simply perfect.” – Dan + Kim.

  • Connection through the whole process 
  • Heartfelt, engaging ceremony
  • Personal approach 
  • Unique ceremony scripts 
  • Quality sound and printing

“Literally could not have asked for a better celebrant!! Handsome devil too!” – Emma + Gary.
