The hype girl you didn’t
know you needed!
Oh hey, thanks for popping in!
Hey there, lovebirds! I’m Maddi – the heart and soul behind Married by Maddi. Based in Melbourne but happy to travel around Victoria, I’m a modern, down-to-earth civil marriage celebrant who’s all about making your wedding ceremony feel authentically you. Whether you’re planning a beachside elopement, a dreamy countryside celebration, or a big party in the city, I’ll help you create a ceremony that’s heartfelt, relaxed, and seriously memorable.
I’ve been an authorised celebrant since 2022, and saying "yes" to this role was one of those spontaneous why wouldn’t I do that?! moments and I’ve loved every second since. Before stepping into the wedding world, I worked as an interior designer and later a project manager, so I come equipped with the creativity, organisation, and calm energy to make sure your ceremony flows beautifully (with zero stress on your end!).
I’m a people-person to my core and truly thrive with a mic in hand. I love real, meaningful conversations and I’ll almost always sprinkle in humour; because making you and your guests smile is my happy place. I celebrate all love stories with warmth, inclusivity, and a genuine passion for what I do.
If you’re after a fun, professional, and supportive celebrant who’ll help you feel seen, heard, and celebrated every step of the way, let’s chat!
I’d be so honoured to help bring your love story to life.

So, who’s behind the mic?
I’m 33, engaged to the most precious soul, running this amazing gig of being a full-time celebrant and small biz owner. I’ve found my home in Melbourne’s beautiful south-eastern suburbs, I’m always planning my next adventure, and I live for good chats, spontaneous dance floors, and people who radiate good energy.
I’m big on connection, inclusivity, and co-creating ceremonies that feel like you on your best day. If you’re looking for a fun, modern, down-to-earth Melbourne marriage celebrant who’ll bring the vibes and calm your nerves—I’m your girl.
