Tweed Coast Wedding Celebrant for Couples Who Want Something Real

I'm Jill Keen, a registered marriage celebrant who splits her time between the Tweed Coast and Toowoomba, creating relaxed, modern wedding ceremonies that are personal, meaningful and anything but cookie-cutter.

If you're looking for a ceremony that feels easy. Natural. A little emotional. A little joyful.

And completely true to who you are as a couple, you’ve come to the right place.

Wedding Ceremonies
From Tweed Coast to Toowoomba

My heart and my time are split between two beautiful parts of the world: the laid-back beaches and hinterland of the Tweed Coast,
and the country charm of Toowoomba and the Darling Downs.

Wherever your love story takes you, I'll create a ceremony that feels personal,relaxed and completely reflective of you.

Because while the location might change, the most important part always stays the same: telling your story in a way that feels genuinely yours.

Tweed Coast &Northern NSW

With the beaches, hinterland and laid-back beauty of the Tweed Coast right on my doorstep, this is a part of the world I know and love.

From Kingscliff, Casuarina and Tweed Heads through to Murwillumbah, Mullumbimby, Byron Bay and the Northern Rivers, I create ceremonies everywhere from oceanfront locations and private properties to tucked-away hinterland settings.

Whether you're barefoot on the beach or surrounded by lush green hills, I'll bring the same warm, relaxed and personal approach to your day.

Toowoomba & the Darling Downs

Toowoomba and the Darling Downs hold a very special place in my heart. With country charm, beautiful gardens, sprawling properties and wide-open skies, it's a wonderful place to celebrate a love story.

From a relaxed garden ceremony in Toowoomba to a country wedding further out on the Downs, I love creating ceremonies that feel at home in their surroundings while still being completely about you.

Expect a little country warmth, plenty of heart and a ceremony that feels natural rather than overly formal.

Destination:
The World

Tweed and Toowoomba might be home, but I'm certainly not stopping there.

If your love story is taking you somewhere else, I'd love to come along for the ride. Whether you're dreaming of a Queensland getaway, a wedding somewhere else in Australia or a destination celebration overseas, I'm always open to packing the suitcase for the right couple.

Wherever in the world you're saying "I do", I'll bring the same care, creativity and personal touch to your ceremony.

Bespoke

Your story. Your people. Your ceremony - completely yours.

For couples who want their ceremony to be one of the memorable parts of the day, not simply the bit before the celebration begins.

Your Bespoke ceremony is created from the ground up around the two of you. I take the time to really get to know you — your personalities, your relationship, the people who matter and all those little things that make you you - then bring it together in a ceremony that's warm, engaging and unmistakably yours.

Think meaningful without being overly serious, romantic without the cringe, with plenty of room for laughter along the way.

From personal vows and special rituals to involving children, family or your favourite people, we'll shape a ceremony that feels natural in the moment and leaves your guests feeling like they've experienced something genuinely special.

from $1,100
Signature

Personal, relaxed and
beautifully uncomplicated.

For couples who want a meaningful ceremony that feels
like them, without needing all the bells and whistles.

Your Signature ceremony gives you the warmth and personality of a personalised wedding ceremony in a simpler format. We'll create something relaxed, engaging and genuine, with just enough of your story woven through to make it personal without putting your whole relationship on centre stage.

There's still plenty of room to make it yours - personal vows if you'd like them, your choice of meaningful touches, and a ceremony delivered with warmth, humour and heart.

It's everything you need to get married beautifully, with none of the fuss you don't.

What to Expect
From Your Ceremony

Working with me is designed to feel simple, relaxed and genuinely enjoyable.

From your first enquiry through to the moment you say your vows, I guide you through the entire process so nothing feels confusing or overwhelming.

This is not about ticking boxes.

It is about creating a ceremony that feels like you.

From First Chat
to Final Vows

It all begins with a relaxed conversation where we get to know each other and talk about your plans, your vision and what matters most to you.

From there, I take the time to learn your story properly. Not just the big milestones, but the small details that make your relationship yours.

I then craft your ceremony and share drafts with you so we can shape it together until it feels just right.

On the day, I am there to guide the flow, settle nerves, hold the space and make sure everything runs smoothly, so you can stay present and enjoy every moment.

Want Me to Keep the Good Times Rolling?

If you love the idea of having a familiar face guiding your guests through the day, I also offer MC services to keep your reception flowing, relaxed and full of personality. From welcoming your guests to introducing the speeches and keeping everything on track, I’ll help make sure the celebration feels effortless from start to finish.

  • From the moment we met Jill, we knew we had made the right decision having her be our celebrant.

    She made us feel so comfortable and prepared for our big day. Jill was extremely professional, kind and diligent. She covered the things we hadn’t even thought about. Her attention to detail and personalised touches really made our day something we will be forever grateful for. The weather was not in our favour on the day and despite a complete last minute change to our schedule and ceremony location, Jill took it in her stride and ensured everything still ran as smooth as possible. She well and truly exceeded our expectations and provided an excellent and hassle free experience. We would highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a celebrant. She will go above and beyond to ensure your day is everything you envisioned and more. Thank you Jill for everything you contributed to our special day.
