WHY ME?

CUZ I DON'T DO SNOOZE!

At our first initial contact (face to face, Zoom, Facetime or Phone) I will ask you a few to the point questions in relation to your wedding date, time and place to confirm my availability! I’ll also ask you a few questions on what type of ceremony you’re after! If you decide to book me, you pay a deposit which secures your date and allows me to start on legal paperwork.

We will then physically meet about 8-10 weeks out from your wedding to do all the boring legal stuff. “Wine and sign”!

Then we move on to the cool stuff….and nitty gritty of your ceremony details, and how we can make this the best ceremony for YOU!

I will also give you a questionnaire before this meeting to have ready to give me, with as much detail as possible.

Let’s be honest I don’t know you. I will ask you to the point and funny questions, to give me all the juicy goss on how your relationship began - this is how I write a kickass ceremony!

I expect to spend up to 30 hours working on your wedding and I only do one a day… so Im all yours!

This includes, management and preparation of: emails, composing your ceremony which can take a week or two, help with personal vows and professional printing of them, preparing your ceremony music, back and forth correspondence with you, phone calls, script updates, legal paperwork preparation and submission, and of course, rehearsing your ceremony several times before the big day so it’s phresh and genuinely delivered!

I am up early on your day, getting in the zone, packing, preparing the certificates, and checking my bag 967 times to check that I have everything!

I also get to your venue super early before anyone arrives to soundcheck, help any vendors that need assistance and make sure everything is in order!

Sound good? YAY!

KNARLY REVIEWS!

“Hands down the ONLY celebrant in the business!
From our initial phone call with this gorgeous creature we knew we had found not only our celebrant, but someone we could call our friend. We had zero idea of what we were doing, Bek was the Queen of everything wedding who had all the answers and suggestions to keep this control freak at bay. All of our nerves and uncertainties were put to rest immediately, and then again and again as the months rolled by. Quite simply by a frantic message from me resulting in one of our meetings, phone calls or text messages - this lady never ignored, ghosted or blocked us! Sunday morning: reply. Friday night: reply. Wednesday midday: you guessed it, she’s right there supporting you the entire way! That’s BEFORE the wedding.
Come wedding day: Bek is prepping the crowd, keeping them entertained and engaged (even when my make up lady ran us 30 minutes late). Every single one of our guests has commented on how funny, entertaining and glamorous Bek was - even weeks after our ceremony. If you want a rockin’ and memorable ceremony; Bek is your gal. If you want a dedicated celebrant who completely personalizes your ceremony; you have found your Mistress! If you are after humerous, with the level of cheek that you are comfortable with; I urge you to contact Bek asap and hope she isn’t booked because I assure you; in 10 years this beauty will be doing our vow renewal ♥️
Thank you Bek for making our day more special than we could have ever imagined”…

“Bek was the perfect celebrant for us. We didn't want a traditional wedding and were worried about a boring ceremony. I knew by reading Bek's "about me" page and testimonials that she was different from the rest ~ a super cool, down to earth chick that genuinely cares about each couple she marries. Family and friends have been raving about our ceremony, stating Bek is the best celebrant they've ever seen (obv we agree!). Bek asked all the right questions to get to know us and write our incredible, sentimental and funny love story. We greatly appreciated Bek's guidance and feedback with writing our own vows as it was quite daunting at first but this part was magical and made our day extra special. Our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. Thank you Bek! Xx

“Wow! Bek Tymms is Phenomenal! 100% Recommend!
We found Bek back in April 2019 and knew she was the celebrant for us! Bek is equal parts rocker chick and hopeless romantic!!!

Bek is also completely sweet, open-minded, thoughtful, warm, compassionate, funky, edgy, alternative and so much fun! We booked her immediately following our first conversation and we are so glad we did!

She came on the CoronaCoaster journey with us, she moved our date twice (the second time just five days out, when QLD went into lockdown the week of our wedding). She laughed with us, cried with us and finally on the third attempt at the end of 2021, married us! And she did it with class, a little sass and a lot of love!
Bek went above and beyond, messaging to check in, making sure we were OK with all of the changes and drama that Covid brought with it! Supporting us, cheering us and providing advice and guidance whenever we needed it.
The ceremony she wrote for us, was absolute perfection! Most of our guests shed tears, Bek even shed a few on our behalf! She engaged our crowd, connected with us and wrote a ceremony for us, not an easy feat considering how different we are! Bek NAILED IT!!! But she didn't stop there! Following our wedding, Bek sent through a beautiful package containing our Marriage Certificate, our vows and our ceremony for us to look back on for years to come!
For all of Bek's future potential Brides, Grooms or any mix of these

If there is any part of you that is on the fence about hiring this rock-star, get off the fence and do it now!!! You will only regret letting her getaway!!! She is worth every cent and more!!!

Bek is an absolutely incredible human, an amazing celebrant, an open-minded, understanding, welcoming and inclusive person! She will make you feel like your special day really is about you and your significant other which is exactly how it should be!
Bek - Thank you for being so wonderful! We are very glad we found you, really thankful for all you did for us and were absolutely blessed to have you marry us!
Lots of love.

“10/10 recommend having Bek as your celebrant and/or MC!
From the first over the phone consult we had with Bek, we knew she was the celebrant for us! Bek is such a funny, quirky kindhearted soul who just got us and captured us and our story perfectly. Bek was our celebrant for our private wedding, our large wedding and also our MC! She was super flexible in working around us and honestly went above and beyond! She had everyone laughing and going ‘aww’ at all the right moments! I’ve had a fair few friends tell me they now want her for their wedding or they wished they could’ve had Bek for their wedding!

Much love to you Bek you beautiful woman, thank you again for everything

Finding the perfect celebrant, one that fits your fun and unusual style is hard but when my husband and I came across Bek we were in love from the first phone call. She goes above and beyond to find out what YOU want for your wedding ceremony, does not make you feel silly for anything you want to include. With our heart break of rescheduling our wedding a few weeks out because of covid, she was so kind and so understanding from day dot. She was not all business and texted to check in on us which made us feel so well looked after. She will care about you and your wedding! (THIS IS A BIG DEAL!)
Now to the ceremony, she gets that perfect balance of laughter, tears and excitement. I had the best time during my ceremony because Bek is a queen in the ceremony business! The best Celebrant in Brisbane!
All our guests said how much fun our ceremony was and that was a big deal to us. Bek made sure everything important was covered from our love story, to our guinea pigs to a beautiful mention of my mum who has passed. (not a dry eye!) Thank you Bek for starting our married life off with such an amazing memory. We will forever be grateful. xx Mr & Mrs Hofmeier
(Duh! all because of you!)
— Nikki Hofmeier - 24/04/2021
From the moment we saw this cool celebrant chick pop up on Facebook we knew she was the one! The perfect combo of chilled, professional but super super organised is what you get when you deal with Bek. This bubbly babe has a way with words, she wrote the PERFECT ceremony for us! Guests actually commented that they normally tune out when the celebrant talks but with Bek, she was so warm and personable that they listened to every word.
Not only did we have an awesome celebrant who guided us through the process, explained the legalities and was with us every step of the way.....but we’ve made a friend for life.
Can’t wait to renew our vows with Bek in 10 years time!
Trust me, contact Bek in regards to your ceremony - you won’t be sorry!
— SARAH AND TOM - 25/07/2019
Who wants a kick ass celebrant that brings a fantastic vibe, sense of humour and actually gets to know their couples? Bek Tymms Celebrant was an absolute light in this whole wedding process. She made it easy she made it fun amongst all the drama and always brought the focus back to us as a couple. I could not recommend her highly enough. The ceremony was so personalised if felt like she had known us for years. We also had Bek as our MC and she was relatable and likeable and an absolute blast. You want a great night that runs seamlessly with the people you love and a bad ass lady in your corner? make sure you book Bek. You won’t regret it. Thank you so much again for everything you did for us. We couldn’t have wished it any other way.
— Tiffany Tytherleigh - 5/09/2020
Bek we can’t thank you enough for pulling off just the most perfect relaxed ceremony. Full of laughter, love and a few tears. From the moment we spoke with you on the phone, we had a connection. You guided us effortlessly before, during and after our big day. You truly are a gem and the joy you have for your work certainly shines through. In short you are simply amazing
— Jacqueline Ollier - 15/11/2019
Bek was amazing from the beginning, to our wedding day, she tailored everything just to suit us.
Our ceremony was just what we wanted funny, casual and full of love ❤️ She made us feel relaxed and helped us through everything, our guests loved every minute of her wonderful words and her bubbly personality.
Highly recommend Bek she is definitely great in making your day a wonderful moment and certainly the best celebrant you will see in action!
— Tania Wetherspoon - 6/05/2021
What a absolute legend, Brisbane’s best Celebrant!
This babe was chosen to be the celebrant for my best friends wedding.
She was real, had the whole audience in laughter & created such a fun, relaxed and memorable ceremony.
She really knew how to capture the crowd & pulled everything together perfectly .
You were made for this gig Bek

A Big 10 stars from me..
— MARTINE pritchard - 12/06/2021
There isn’t another word except wow when talking about Bek. When we started to look at celebrants we wanted a ceremony that was not the normal. We wanted something fun and that is what we got. When we first spoke to Bek we didn’t second guess and booked her straight away. Best decision by far. Not only did she make the ceremony enjoyable and funny but helped out with any questions we had before the big day. We did have to change our original date for the wedding not once but twice and it was never a problem for Bek. We have had so many of our guests say they loved the ceremony. Plus an extra thank you to Bek for the fan..... It was such a hot day and keeping Michael calm when I was running late. If your thinking about Bek don’t hesitate and book her to do your ceremony. The best Celebrant in Brisbane - 10/10 for sure xoxo
— Kylie Pert - 27/03/2021
Bek came into our lives and absolutely swept us away with her absolute memorable ceremony she personalised for us. She had all our guests captivated and engaged from start to finish. She took us through a journey of our own relationship and put us through every emotion. Every guest at our wedding couldn’t stop talking about her and what she provided. One even wants to renew their vows just to have her apart of theirs! She was not only a one of a kind celebrant but took on the role of MC at our wedding. The whole night ran smooth has hell and everyone could not get enough of Beks amazing-ness from start to finish! The vibe of the wedding was set by her and the wedding was bloody amazing! Her whole down to earth, kick ass attitude was flawless and we can’t thank you enough for going above and bloody beyond to give us everything you had. You are hands down worth every cent and the best Celebrant hands down! Thank you for being you! 💕
— Alysha Lee - 22/08/2020
What can we say about Bek Tymms…. WOW!!! Bek is a modern, relaxed, unique and vibrant celebrant that is for sure. Her dedication to the job and determination to create the most individual ceremony for us as a couple was incredible. Everything was personally written by her for us and as a result she created a funny, exciting and unpredictable ceremony that kept everyone present entertained and laughing constantly. Covid 19 resulted in us postponing our wedding twice and she was more than accommodating.
She took the stress out of it for us and went above and beyond coming to our rescue with a number of issues we had. We would recommend Bek to anyone wanting to encapsulate their love in a unique way. Thank you so so so much Bek we just adore you and think you are just the best at what you do. xxxx
— Caitlin Sorensen - 19/02/2021
Where do I start!!! If you want an absolute kickass, rocking ceremony that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Well Bek is your lady! From our first phone call and meeting we knew we wanted Bek to marry us! & boy she didn’t disappoint! All dealings with Bek felt comfortable and easy like we were old friends catching up! Then we read the ceremony she wrote us..& it blew me away, the way she can write and tell our story with humour, love and emotion is truly amazing! The week leading up to the wedding was hectic and Bek was always there asking if I need a hand ❤ Then it was WEDDING DAY and her ceremony was no other words for it than DAMN PERFECTION! There were NO bored yawns or guests trying to stay awake! All our guests commented on how perfect it was! Now I look forward to stalking Bek and her Brisbane band Empyre in the future If you want a KICKASS AMAZING Celebrant in Brisbane, look no further Bek is your lady!!!
— Natalie Nicholls - 10/10/2020

Bek is so amazing, we could not have asked for a better person to marry us. She tailored the ceremony to be humorous and to suit our personalities perfectly and made sure every detail was perfected. So many people came up to us at the reception and told us how much they loved the ceremony and that they’d never heard a funnier or more modern wedding ceremony and it was all because of Bek!
Do yourself a favour and get Bek Tymms to be your celebrant for the happiest day of your life. She will NAIL IT!
— Jamie Greer - 07/03/2020
Bek is absolutely amazing at what she does! From the initial meeting to the final vows she was so reassuring, helpful & absolutely nailed our ceremony. It was everything we imagined plus more!
I cannot recommend her enough. If you’re looking for something different, modern and a little extra special in your celebrant..... look no further you have found it in Bek Tymms. x
— Casandra Muir - 20/02/2020
OMG where do I even start with Bek ...
I don’t even have words that can describe how truly amazing our ceremony was because of Bek!
Our ceremony way laid back, funny but very sentimental just as we wanted it!
I love that everyone had tears, smiles and giggles during our ceremony BUT most of all I love that Bek was our celebrant.
From the day I spoke to Bek on the phone to our wedding day, every phone call, message and catch up was relaxed and comfortable.
I told Bek from day dot she isn’t only our celebrant but she is our cup of tea and we feel like we have had her as a friend in our lives before. We will see her again.
I cannot recommend Bek enough!
Brisbane’s Best Celebrant by far!
I sincerely thank you for making our day amazing Bek
— Lea Wilson - 18/01/2020
Bek- you are absolutely amazing!!!
You wrote the most incredible ceremony for Nate and I and we couldn’t thank you enough.. Our guests adored you and so do we.. you were funny, engaging and people said it was the best ceremony they had ever been to, and you were the most modern and funny Celebrant they’d ever seen! Everyone listened to our story from start to finish- all because of YOU!
We knew we had the best Celebrant in Brisbane marrying us!
Thankyou for making that magical moment even more special.. we love you Bek. Lots of love from The Crossetts xxxx
— Ashleigh Crossett - 19/10/2019
Bek was better than I ever could have hoped for as a celebrant. Best Celebrant ever!
I did wedding photography for a couple years, so I have seen my fair share of weddings. Usually they’re rather generic and most say the same things and are quite tedious to sit through. I dreaded this for my wedding. I wanted something low-key, romantic, comedic and most importantly, something that is just ‘us’.
Bek nailed this for us!
She wrote our entire ceremony revolving around us and our story. Upon first reading the ceremony she wrote, I was left an absolute mess. Tears rolling down my cheeks as I reminisced about how my love story began, as well as a belly ache from the perfectly placed humour throughout.
I would highly recommend Bek to anyone who wishes to have their ceremony truly reflect them. You won’t be disappointed.
— Kaila O'Brien - 28/09/2019
Where to even start, Bek was more than we could have wanted, expected, hoped and dreamed for! Her calm presence helped calm me when I was so incredibly nervous walking down the aisle, she has this kind, calming, safe persona that instantly relaxes you. Nothing was to much trouble for Bek on the day and the lead up to and her attention to detail was second to none. The way she takes the time to get to know you really comes across in the ceremony and her witty, creativeness, sense of humour makes for an incredible ceremony. She has this beautiful way of creating such a connective ceremony and loved how she is not your traditional celebrant.
Bek is modern, engaging and a non-traditional Celebrant which we loved! We have had soo many compliments about Bek! You will not regret choosing Bek, she is one in a million and will be forever grateful to her. She also MC’D our wedding and kept the vibe going ALL night with her professionalism, organisation and humour!
— Kaitlin Thrupp - 5/10/2019
How do I even start, Bek was absolutely amazing there was nothing that was to much of a hassle.
She was one of the most helpful and important persons on our day. The ceremony!!! Wow no word to even describe how she conducted our day, there was laughter, and happy tears all throughout the ceremony. She made sure the both of us were calm and took a lot of our nerves away. Watching my young children’s face light up when she included them in our ceremony adding the important and funny details about them was just beautiful, she just went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and that it was! All night everyone complimented our celebrant choice and said how wonderful she was and how she was the best Celebrant they’d ever seen!
I will forever be grateful I made the choice to have Bek from the moment we had our first and last conversation she was just amazing .
A big thank you from everyone on our day who absolutely loved her. Thanks Bek you’re one of the best people in the wedding industry I have yet to come across ❤️
