About me

Have you been searching for a celebrant who is relaxed, happy, easygoing and stress-free? I’d say you’ve come to the right place! Allow me, Adelaide Celebrant Christopher Steele, to make your special day everything you had imagined.

As you may have heard, I’m a funloving guy, ready to embrace any kind of style you’re looking for.

Would you prefer a serious, highly traditional and dignified style? Can do.

Or,

Would you prefer something crazy? (I’ve been Elvis on several occasions
(“Thankyou very much”); I’ve been Friar Tuck; I’ve been a pirate…)
However you would like your wedding to be, I will make it happen.

The main reason why couples choose me

Since 2004 I’ve conducted over 3,900 weddings and couples choose me because of my laid-back but engaging nature and nice clear, booming voice. Because I always ensure that everyone feels intimately involved in the wedding, you and all of your guests can expect to enjoy a wonderful wedding ceremony.

Of course one thing you might like to know, is

Where can I go to conduct your wedding?

Answer: Anywhere!

I’ve even been asked to perform a wedding “au naturel” at Maslins Beach!

I’ve performed weddings in nearly every natural setting throughout Adelaide and the region; such as in most of Adelaide’s beautiful public parks and gardens, as well as in private homes and backyards, at famous reception venues and community halls, along with a few oddball locations to boot!

From Adelaide’s metropolitan area to some of SA’s loveliest spots, such as the Barossa, McLaren Vale, Port Elliot and many more, you only have to ask if you’d like me to appear as your chosen celebrant.

So what can you expect from me?

First of all, I will meet you both, as soon as possible, to find out exactly how you’d like your wedding to be. Naturally, I’ll complete the legal paperwork with you, so that you can get legally married (remember there is a one-month legal “notice” period you must undergo prior to your wedding, so you need to sign a special form (“Notice of Intended Marriage”) with me.

How can you have your wedding?

Any way you like! Naturally.

Of course I will also provide you with all the guidance necessary, to help you choose the exact wedding that you want.

To start helping you with this, I’ll demonstrate how a “typical wedding” goes with a pretend wedding at your first meeting (Remember - you are not restricted to that style! But it gives you a good starting point).

After our meeting, you’ll receive a draft wedding format and a variety of content that you may like to include in your wedding; and you’ll have plenty of time to simply “cut and paste in” or “chop out” any items so that your wedding is unique and exactly the way you want it.

At the end of the day, one thing is sure

You will feel confident, calm and relaxed as a result of choosing me to be your wedding celebrant. Whichever style of wedding you’re looking for, I will make it happen, beautifully. In fact, if your one desire is to celebrate your wedding in a way that allows you to relax entirely and simply focus on the pleasure of the occasion, you will find me to be the ideal celebrant choice.

How soon should you book?

You may already know but my service is very popular, so I do get booked out a long way in advance. Therefore, if you’re thinking of a wedding in Adelaide or nearby country areas, it’s highly recommended that you get in touch with me or my bookings officer now, to check my availability for your wedding.
