Let’s Make It Official

About me

I am a friendly, down to earth celebrant who believes your wedding ceremony should feel meaningful, relaxed, and genuinely enjoyable - not pressure for perfection.

My Celebrancy journey started when my best friend and I were guests at a wedding and she joked that the only person she would want to officiate her marriage was me. Fast forward a few years, she got engaged, I started studying and Amy McDonald the Wedding Celebrant was born.

I take great pride and gratitude in being able to celebrate your very special day. I will guide you through the entire process, take care of all the legal requirements, and work with you to create a ceremony that is professional, meaningful, and a genuine reflection of your love story.

Choosing your celebrant should feel easy and exciting. If my approach sounds like the right fit for you, I would love for you to take a look through my services or visit my social media for recent ceremonies and updates.

When you are ready, reach out and let’s have a chat about making things official.
