What My Couples Are Saying...

We can’t thank Jan enough in her efforts as our celebrant. Jan took the time to understand us and what we wanted on our special day. She put together a ceremony that was totally our vibe and enjoyed by all on the day. I would highly recommend. Thanks again Jan!!!

Jan was an incredible celebrant for our wedding. She made the whole process so easy and has a beautiful, warm personality which captivates anyone who speaks to her. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you for our beautiful ceremony Jan - you’re amazing!!! - The Parkers x

Kayla Parker 29/10/2024

Jan married us for a secret elopement at Buderim Falls and we cannot recommend her highly enough! From our initial contact, she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating to our needs (including a sudden date change). On the day of the elopement, Jan was a true professional while also being wonderfully personable. She engaged beautifully with our little boy, making him feel included and comfortable throughout the ceremony. It was heartwarming how Jan even included him in the ceremony, which truly added a special touch to our day. If you're looking for a wedding celebrant who is kind, accommodating, and great with kids, look no further than Jan. Thank you for making our elopement so memorable!

Jan was amazing, she took the time to get to know us and was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. She made the ceremony so enjoyable and relaxed which is especially nice for two people who aren’t a big fan of being centre of attention. I would recommend Jan to everyone!

Jan recently married us in Buddina and she made the whole process such a breeze! Right from the get-go, nothing was ever too much trouble. Jan customised the entire ceremony to meet our needs and desires. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jan to any of our friends.

Amanda H 21/09/2024

My husband and I were recently married by Jan in Mooloolaba. From the beginning Jan was absolutely fantastic. From all of her years of experience we couldn’t recommend her enough. Nothing was a hassle and always there to take a quick phone call, was so helpful of recommending a photographer, hair and makeup artist. Her easy nature and love for her job shows through and was so amazing in her wording for a vows on our very special day .

Belinda Kidd 16/09/2024

Jan was just amazing!

Amity Hambly 02/09/2024

Jan has made a beautiful ceremony for us and the whole process is simple and no stress at all!! Our friends and family absolutely loved her ❤️

Teresa Liew 20/08/2024

Where do I even start! From the very moment we saw Jan and some of her videos we knew she was the celebrant for us. Jan made our experience second to none, always quick to reply, calm, relaxed, professional and knows how to have a laugh. She created our dream ceremony and both Ben and I are so glad that to have been able to share our perfect day with Jan, making it modern, funny and completely us! We can not thank you enough for everything that you have done for us and are still doing we both are very grateful for you 🥰 Lots of love Ben & Clo Xx

Chloe Young 19/08/2024

Jan has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She has made planning and organising the ceremony a breeze. She was very kind, warm and fun throughout the whole process! We would absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting to get married!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Absolutely thrilled with Jan as our celebrant for our recent elopement. She made us feel like she was so excited for our day and was always so quick to respond to any email queries. Her handbook was so helpful for us to customise our wedding scripts/vows and really helped us understand how the ceremony would flow. She also helped us decide on a location and even went out of her way to visit the location and take photos as we are not local. She is kind, warm, and geninue, and we immediately felt comfortable with Jan on our wedding day. Would happily recommend Jan as a celebrant!

Amy S 01/07/2024

Jan created truly the most amazing ceremony that reflected both myself and my partner perfectly. It was so easy to plan and chat to Jan. We had met with other celebrants before meeting with Jan and felt like we never clicked. I had a recommendation from a workmate who just got married to meet up with Jan and we felt so comfortable straight away. She was so professional and explained everything she possibly could about creating whatever ceremony we could ever want. Myself and my partner are just your non serious, comedic, aussie couple and she created a ceremony that just reflected us to a t! We would recommend her to absolutely anyone and cannot thank her enough for everything she has done for us.

Amanda 14/06/2024

We are so happy we trusted Jan with our special day. Jan gave us the exact wedding we described. Her attention to detail made our special day even more wonderful. Thank you from both of us Jan. Rob and Sumaryati Burton

Rob Burton 28/05/2024

We had the absolute pleasure of having Jan as our wedding celebrant, and she truly deserves a five-star rating. From the moment we first inquired, Jan was amazing with her communication. She responded quickly and was super helpful with any information we needed. Jan provided a wealth of information right from the start, which made our planning process so much easier. When we first met Jan, she was incredibly lovely and warm, instantly making us feel at ease. Her professionalism and genuine care were evident throughout our interactions. During the ceremony, it was clear that Jan had put a lot of effort into creating the personalized ceremony we wanted. It was heartfelt and tailored perfectly to us, making our special day even more memorable. Additionally, her styling package was amazing. Jan handled the setting up and taking down of everything, so we didn't have to worry about a thing on the day. The styling was beautiful and exactly what we had envisioned, allowing us to relax and enjoy our special moments without any stress. I would highly recommend Jan to anyone on the Sunshine Coast looking to get married. We got married at Coolum Beach, Sunshine Coast QLD, and Jan's presence and guidance were invaluable. If you are looking for a celebrant who is communicative, dedicated, and genuinely caring, with an exceptional eye for styling, Jan is the perfect choice. Thank you, Jan, for making our wedding day so wonderful!

an absolute pleasure to work with, made the process so smooth for us, never had to chase Jan for anything, she was on top of it from the start. done an amazing job capturing us in our ceremony, highly recommend.

Jan Harvey was very professional in her approach to her work. She was reliable, punctual and well-organised. Jan had a great understanding of the legal requirements for our marriage ceremony and be able to handle any necessary paperwork efficiently. Jan was warm and personable and made us all feel very comfortable and at ease. Jan took the time to get to know us and our story and made sure our ceremony was personal to us and our children. We would highly recommend Jan Harvey as a celebrant.

Jan was a wonderful addition to our wedding day. Inclusive, respectful and welcoming.

My (now) husband and I absolutely loved having Jan part of our wedding, she made it all the more special. We loved how personable and friendly she was from the very beginning. Jan has also been really flexible through the whole thing. My husband and I got engaged 3 months ago and decided to plan our wedding soon after. As you could imagine, it was quite stressful finding and coordinating everyone at short notice but Jan was amazing and jumped on board strait away. Jan found the time to come and visit us in person to talk through the process and sort out some of the documentation. We weren't the quickest in getting all our paperwork sorted but Jan was very patient and understanding with us along the way. When she visited, Jan made a point of asking us the correct pronunciation of our names, which can be particularly difficult with my husband's Hungarian name but Jan mastered it before the ceremony and said it perfectly which was so lovely and made all the difference for us. We feel privileged to have had Jan as our Celebrant and would recommend Jan to anyone on the Sunshine Coast to create a beautiful and very meaningful ceremony for your wedding day.

Jan, thank you so much for your help and support. It meant the world to have someone so caring and professional to officiate our special day. Every step of the process was simple and clearly explained. We couldn’t have wished for anyone better.

Lee Harding 13/03/2024

Jan was a dream celebrant right from the first email enquiry I sent her. We planned our wedding in just four weeks (!!!) and Jan made it all happen. Jan has excellent constant communication with no question made to feel too much or too hard to do. Jan is a bubble of kindness, joy and positivity who radiates her love of love. She made my husband and I feel taken care of, calm, and organised during the lead up to our wedding- and included in every step of the way. On our special day Jan arrived in a beautiful dress,with a big smile and an air of positivity. Our guests were all made to feel included, warm and comfortable- happily chatting with her before the ceremony. The ceremony went perfectly and seamlessly and before we knew it we were married. It was perfect in every way. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. I would (and will!) recommend Jan to anyone and everyone. She is amazing.

Where do we begin, Jan was beyond amazing throughout this entire process. Jan knew we 1 had no idea what we were doing and 2 time poor between work, a teenager and toddler. Jan took all the stress and worry out for us made it very clear what we needed to do / complete which pages we needed to pay extra care to. Everyone could not stop speaking about the beautiful service Jan performed on Saturday we thank her dearly.

Jan made the whole process easy, fun and comfortable.

Nishan 01/03/2024

Jan was absolutely incredible! From the moment we met her, her calm and relaxed demeanor put us at ease. Her positive energy and amazing aura created such a wonderful atmosphere throughout our elopement. She made us feel so comfortable and relaxed, which made our special day even more memorable. Her vibrant and passionate personality truly shone through, and her enthusiasm and energy were contagious. Not only was she lovely and kind-hearted, but she also went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better celebrant to officiate our wedding. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly amazing and unforgettable experience. Xx - Kira & Jackson

Kira Morris 15/02/2024

Jan made us feel very relaxed about the day and helped us navigate our way with ease through the vows and readings and order of the wedding. She was sooo easy to work with and I couldn't imagine a more calm but organised person to work with during what could be a very stressful event. We HIGHLY recommend Jan Harvey as a celebrant! You won't regret it!

We can not thank Jan enough! From pre-planning to ceremony to post-ceremony she has been so helpful, calm, knowledgeable and friendly. She made our special day, even better. Highly, highly recommend.

Rose Burke 14/12/2023

Jacob Smith 07/12/2023

Where do I start…Jan Harvey Celebrant is the best! Thank you so much for helping us make our day so special, fun and romantic and going beyond what is expected with holding our very special fur baby Bella when we exchanged rings. Your passion from the very beginning was evident from our very first conversation over the phone to when we met and felt so at ease and excited to when we eloped in October up at Maleny, QLD where your loving personality brought such a warm sense to the ceremony. You were always prompt and professional however relaxed and fun and could not do enough for us. I could not recommend you enough, you are a gem and I hope we can stay in touch. Thank you again Jan from the bottom of our hearts xo

Jodie Lucas 03/12/2023

Jan is an excellent communicator and makes the process of putting together a wedding ceremony fun and easy. She ensured our ceremony was personalised and reflected who we are as a couple, including and changing bits and pieces as we asked for it. We cannot recommend her enough.

Jan was absolutely amazing and made our day so special and personal. You can tell that being a Celebrant is Jan's passion and she is so understanding, caring and radiates love and happiness. Thank you Jan, from the bottom of our hearts. Kyra and Myles x

Myles Grant 08/10/2023

Jan was absolutely incredible with our wedding! She put together a beautiful tailored ceremony for us and created an experience we’ll truly never forget. With her help we had the fairytale wedding that we always dreamed of. Thank you Jan!

Tayla Watson 22/09/2023

Jan was so wonderful, welcoming & professional. She prepared us well for the day & we enjoyed every single moment throughout the ceremony with her. Everything from start to finish was amazing. We had so many compliments from our guests on how heartfelt the ceremony was. Thank you Jan! Heather & Leon x

My husband and I were so happy to have selected Jan as our celebrant for our elopement style ceremony. Jan was extremely helpful and relaxed. Nothing was too much to ask and our ceremony was everything we had hoped for (and more)! Highly recommend Jan as a marriage celebrant and extremely well priced.

My wife and I are so incredibly grateful to have chosen Jan as our celebrant. During such a stressful time, with so much to do and organise, Jan did so much to make everything easier. From checking in to see how we were going, to answering our emails and questions, to just being so supportive and wonderful - we couldn't be happier to have chosen her to be part of our special day. We also loved all of the info and fantastic wedding organiser/template she provided. They were so thoughtful and helped us plan all the particulars of our ceremony; which was so magical, made possible by Jan's support, professionalism and phenomenal work before and especially on the day itself. Being blind, my situation was a little different than most grooms, but Jan took the time to get to know us, think of creative ways to support me on the day, and made the whole ceremony go off without a hitch - with many laughs and heartfelt tears. She is so experienced, passionate about what she does and conscientious of others. We couldn't recommend Jan more highly as a celebrant. We feel so lucky to have found her and been able to have her as part of our special day. Thank you Jan!

Nelly Bayley 24/07/2023

Jan truly went above and beyond from day 1. We connected immediately and she made the whole process so easy. We were so relaxed and she just made us and all our family and guests walk away, reminiscing about how special and beautiful she made our day. We had so much love, laughter and happy tears during our ceremony. She nailed it! We are forever grateful for such beautiful memories to last a lifetime that has touched each and everyone who attended.

Jan officiated our Ceremony in the Glass House Mountains and did an outstanding job! We felt so comfortable and at ease with Jan as our celebrant. She guided us the entire way and was quick to provide any answers to our queries and to supply any feedback that we needed. She is just a beautiful human and set the tone for such a memorable and special ceremony. Highly recommend!

From the first meeting Jan was fantastic! She made us feel so comfortable, she made everything so easy, from the legalities, planning the ceremony and answering any questions we had. She was calming, funny and so genuine. Jan made our day even more special here on the Sunshine Coast Thank you so much, no words can explain how grateful we were to have you part of our day ❤️❤️ love Shane & Belinda

Jan made our special day very special. Nothing was too much trouble for her and the ceremony was just as we asked for. We highly recommend Jan.

We recently had Jan perform a vow renewal and she made it all so easy for us! Highly recommend.

Chris Fowler 03/04/2023

Jan is so approachable and friendly but at the same time, also super professional. She was always available when I needed to talk to her and discuss the marriage plans, in fact one of the reasons I chose to go with her was because she instantly replied to my inquiry email even though I had emailed at an odd hour, she always got back to me the same day which made it much easier to communicate. She was very professional and person-centred, gave it enough time to know me and my partner, and put together a beautiful and touching ceremony for us and we never felt rushed through the process, it all felt so natural. We feel she genuinely cares for her clients and wants them to feel special on their big day. Honestly, we could not have found a better celebrant than her. Thanks Jan <3

Jan was absolutely brilliant and I can't recommend her enough, her vast experience as a celebrant was evident from the very beginning. She was so helpful throughout the whole process, from the pre-wedding paperwork, to helpful tips on writing our vows, to creating a custom ceremony that was just for us. Jan was very professional but still so lovely and friendly. We received many compliments about Jan from our guests on our wedding day.

Our Ceremony with Jan on Hamilton Island was just perfect in every way! She is very professional and made us feel very comfortable and supported with her warm and loving personality. We cannot thank you enough for making our day so special! Matt & Liz :)
