Billy Hodgetts

Bright, bubbly and slightly too in your face ... That's how my friends would best describe me.

I am a little ecentric, very fun loving and always up for a challenge.

Want me to hike to the top of Mount Kosciuszko and marry you wearing an inflatable hot pink unicorn outfit ... All in a days work.

Willing to travel anywhere in Australia and love the more remote & unusual wedding locations.

Especially if they are in the outback with that gorgeous red dirt.

I got into the celebrant business when my partner’s sister asked me to be a stand-in celebrant for her wedding (with a real celebrant doing the legal parts but with me doing everything else). I couldn’t believe how much fun it was! I had members from both families telling me I’d found my calling and ended up being the stand-in celebrant for her brother’s wedding too. After doing my second wedding as an unofficial celebrant, I knew I needed to do this for real.

I live in Melbourne; however, I like to travel and I am qualified to perform a wedding ceremony in any State in Australia. You won’t be charged for the travel – just accommodation!

I love to make a ceremony all about the couple. I’ll help with the planning and do my utmost to make the day an exceptional one for the couple, as well as friends and family.

Contact me for a chat. You don’t have to decide immediately.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.  I know this is a integral time to commence researching venues, flowers, wedding cake and also searching for the right Marriage Celebrant for your very special day.

I have been a Civil Celebrant for 19 years and find this part of my life both joyous and rewarding and I would like to relieve some of the  stress and work with  you to make your wedding day a very happy and a very memorable one.  I will be with you from the first meeting, right though to the day of the wedding, all working together, making your ceremony, one dreams are made of,  one of joy and happiness and full of wonderful memories that will be with you for the rest of your life

Whilst I am based in Albury/Wodonga, I am enabling myself to travel for couples, either New South Wales or Victoria.

Baby naming is also a very important day, just give me a call to arrange a date and time.

“Two people standing before family and friends professing their love and commitment to one another are surrounded by wedding symbols: from the color of the bridal gown to the throwing of rice and most importantly the “Wedding Ring/s” – weddings are rich in heritage and tradition and I will be your support throughout and right up to your SPECIAL DAY”
