Ryan Black

Celebrant · MC · Wordsmith Good with words. Better with people.

Known amongst mates as "The Wordsmith".

I believe your wedding ceremony should be one of the absolute highlights of your day. Not something everyone sits through before heading to the bar.

My approach? Keep things relaxed, make it personal, have a laugh where it feels right, and create something that genuinely reflects who you are.

And if we happen to become mates along the way? Well, that's a pretty bloody good bonus.

The Ryan Black Approach

Good Ceremonies Don't Happen by Accident.

01

The vibe check.

A relaxed video call from the comfort of your own home — grab a coffee or a beer and settle in.

02

That calm, unhurried energy.

Relaxed doesn't mean unprepared. I put plenty of work in behind the scenes so that when your big day arrives, we can all relax, enjoy ourselves and let the good stuff happen naturally.

03

Every word, actually yours.

Every ceremony is written from scratch. No recycled scripts, no copy-and-paste love stories. Just words that genuinely reflect the two of you.

04

Clients First. Mates by the End.

I take what I do seriously, but I don't take myself too seriously. I love getting to know my couples, having a laugh along the way and creating an experience that feels more like working with a mate than hiring another wedding vendor.

“Ryan captured our love story and delivered it perfectly.”

The wedding day, start to finish

So, What's It Actually Like Having Me Around?

01 — Before the Good Stuff Begins

I'll be there nice and early, getting everything set up, checking the sound and making sure we're good to go. You concentrate on getting married. I'll take care of my end.

02 — The Main Event

This is where the magic happens. A ceremony that's personal, meaningful, full of personality and, most importantly, a genuine reflection of you two. A few laughs, perhaps a few tears, and absolutely none of that generic wedding waffle.

03 — Making It Official

There are a few legal bits and pieces we need to take care of, but don't worry, I've got those covered. We'll get the paperwork sorted, signatures collected and make this whole marriage thing official.

04 — Let the Celebrations Begin

If you've booked me as your MC, we're not finished yet! I'll help keep your reception running smoothly, your guests entertained and the celebrations ticking along, so you can concentrate on enjoying every bloody minute of it.

“Most of our guests went out of their way to tell us how amazing he was, and how charismatic he was!”
