HITCHED BY BRITT
Britt’s obsession for weddings started slowly as she planned her own wedding and escalated as Britt’s close friends needed help planning their nuptials. Britt knew she needed to be a part of this industry and felt she had a lot to offer couples looking for a fun celebrant to officiate their wedding!

Kyra Portis
Kyra can’t get enough of being a marriage celebrant. It’s the perfect combination of things Kyra loves – meeting people, writing the perfect story and then having the honour of sharing it with all the important people in a couple’s life is the absolute cherry on top. After some friends got engaged a few years back and asked if Kyra could help, the deal was sealed, and her celebrant journey began.
