Married By Max
Just a normal guy, standing in front of a happy couple, asking them to marry each other.
About Max
Hi! I'm Max. An ordinary guy who loves talking. I'm also a young celebrant from the Newcastle and Hunter region, and I'd love to be involved in your big day.
I became a civil marriage celebrant to perform the ceremony for two of my closest friends. I wanted to give them someone they knew who could take them through their big day, after one of them did the same for our wedding.
​
Well sometimes, the thing you pick up on a whim turns out to be the thing you love! I have a natural passion for public speaking and love helping a couple be front and centre on their wedding day.
I want to bring that good friend vibe to your big day.
​
If you think​ that we might be a good match, feel free to find out more about me or get in touch below!
