About Carol Macfarlane

Marriage Celebrant, MC & On-the-Day Manager

One woman. Every detail. Zero stress.

I don’t just marry you and host your reception. I hold the day from start to finish. I liaise with vendors, manage timing, cue music, and guide the flow behind the scenes so you can stay present and actually enjoy your wedding. I will turn your dreams into a wonderful day to remember.

I’m Carol, Sydney Wedding Celebrant & MC.

A warm host.
A calm organiser.
A creative with a clipboard.

I’ve always been drawn to moments that matter, whether I was managing international events, presenting at conferences, or helping someone feel beautiful in the mirror.

Today, I bring that same presence to every ceremony and reception.
I don’t just show up.

I guide, I hold space, and I make sure nothing slips through the cracks.
The legal bits.
The emotional bits.
The “did anyone tell the flower girl when to walk?” bits.
All handled.

You’ll find me just as comfortable cueing music and calming nerves as I am writing your ceremony script or fixing a buttonhole.

We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Carol as our celebrant for our wedding in April. Carol took care of everything for us and made it an extremely relaxing and stress free day for us. From the first meeting with her until the wedding day, she was very engaged and excited and she did her best to make the day special for us. We would recommend her to anyone looking to get married in Sydney!

Chris Lib Northern Beaches / 12/04/2023

Carol is absolutely lovely to work with. She is very professional and quickly understood the type of ceremony we wanted for our wedding. Carol is very warm and made us feel calm on our wedding day as she had everything organised and ready to go. Highly recommend.

My name is Dina. For me, there’s nothing better than the fuzzy feeling you get witnessing two people in love, officially committing to one another in marriage. Becoming a celebrant was a long-term dream of mine, but it wasn’t until I was encouraged by friends and family who saw my passion for public speaking, organising and all things love, that I finally took the plunge. It’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From small and intimate to large and lavish events, I take pride in making sure every ceremony is one of the most memorable parts of your day (and not just a boring formality).

I’m proud to say, at Ceremonies by Dina, all love is celebrated equally.
