(ABOUT ME)

Where the Spark Began!

My journey to becoming a Toowoomba marriage celebrant began in 2013 when I got married myself. Standing there in that moment with my family and friends, I realised just how powerful a wedding ceremony can be! It's really all the emotions in one moment. It became real that day. We stood there and made the declaration, "You are it - You're my person".


That experience lit a little spark in me, and it never went away. 


A wedding ceremony for me has always been about more than just something that you endure to sit or stand through. It's a celebration, and the moment you make your team official, it's happening! Hells yeah!! 


In 2024, I decided to follow that spark, and I became a registered marriage celebrant in 2025. I am ready to support couples across Toowoomba and the Darling Downs. 


My goal is simple - be the kind of celebrant who has your back, listens and understands your story and helps you create a ceremony that reflects you as a couple. I'll be authentic, genuine and fun! 


Every time I get to stand beside one of my couples as their marriage celebrant, I'm reminded exactly why I chose this path for myself, and I will never take that for granted.


So, if you're looking for a Toowoomba marriage celebrant who will support you, guide you through all the legals and create a ceremony you'll love. I'd love to chat. 


Let's say yes - and chat!

Why couples choose Samantha Jayne Celebrancy

Your ceremony deserves more than just a let’s get through it. 


I create ceremonies that are fun, humbling, heartfelt and all about you. The kind of ceremony that leaves you feeling all the feels. 


A personalised ceremony, tailored to you and your story and crafted in a way that feels natural and meaningful. 


Weddings are pretty full on. I bring calm and guidance at every step. I handle all the legal details and make the process easy and stress-free. 


Together, we will craft a ceremony that will get your guests laughing, crying, and feeling totally connected to you. I’ll help you with vows, advice, rehearsals - I’ve got you. 


It is truly an honour to stand with you, and I mean that. This isn’t just a job for me, I love being a part of your moment, and I will treat it (and you) with the energy and passion it deserves. 


Locations I Service -


Throughout the Darling Downs region. Toowoomba, Dalby, Warwick, Goondiwindi & Stanthorpe.  I will also travel to Chinchilla, Oakey, Milmerran, Pittsworth & Inglewood. Heck, I’ll even go to Brisbane and the surrounds!

I’m always open to exploring new places, interstate and overseas too!!! 

DoYou Want To Know Me Some More?

I like Pina Colada’s and getting caught in the rain….. STOP - every time I have to answer this question this song goes through my brain! Thank you Rupert Holmes. I mean I love a Pina Colada, but rain aint my thang! 


I like to think of myself as someone who other people enjoy being around. I like to make people laugh, tell them funny stories about myself or my husband or my kids, some people might call it oversharing but really, I just want everyone to laugh. There isn’t anything better than a big old belly laugh. 


In my natural habitat you can find me hanging out with my kids and my husband. I love spending time with my family and friends, they’re all very important to me and they make me happy. 


I love music, all kinds and dancing. Movie nights with movie salad*. Coffee before chats in the morning, sweet treats, random chats with strangers. A clean house and a freshly mowed yard and then there is nothing better than enjoying all the hard work with a beer or glass of wine. 



*movie salad is a bag of popcorn, a bag of skittles, a bag of maltesers, mixed in a bowl. FYI - don't add the sweet treats until the popcorn has cooled.

From First Hello to "I Do"

(The Process)

You got engaged

(OH CONGRATS),  fixed a wedding date, booked a venue - now what?

 

You book your celebrant, silly!!

Enquire with me to confirm your date is available, maybe even have a 30-minute chat with me to see if you like me. Nah, Sam - we love ya. If you do want to have a 30-minute chat -

Check your inbox, I will have sent you a bunch of emails of next steps and we will arrange to have a drink “meeting” to fill out the legal paperwork and chat about all things wedding - actually I can’t guarantee it will be all wedding talk. I never know where conversations will go.

The planning begins, I write the script, you write your vows (if you want), or I can help with those too.


We plan some more, we practice and bibidi bobidi boo we are ready for the day. 

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What venues do you work at?

    Any venue - I don’t discriminate here!! (FYI - I wont jump out of a plane and hot air balloons are iffy).

  • Do you have any vendor recommendations?

    Yes, I can help point you in the direction of some great local vendors!  

  • Do you chat with the photographer/videographer on the key moments?

    Sure do!! And I’ll make sure I am not in their way either! 

  • Do you help manage the guests before the ceremony?

    Not only will I manage them, I’ll be chatting to them! 

  • How do you handle rehearsals for location weddings?

     I am happy to do a rehearsal, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be at the venue. If I can’t be there, I will give you a guide on doing the rehearsal yourself. If it’s a venue I haven’t been to before,  I will always arrive ahead of time to make sure it’s all good! ,
