Commonwealth Registered Marriage Celebrant

• Dec 2021 - Present

I’m Steven Henderson, civil celebrant and professional communicator. I have a passion for enabling others to connect, celebrate, commiserate and communicate. I do this by working with clients to deliver tailored celebrations with well-crafted words that articulately convey the emotions and feelings of the day. Based in Brisbane with my wife, son and toy Cavoodle, I service the areas of Greater Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Northern Rivers. However, I’m more than happy to travel (almost) anywhere to help create lifelong memories. I’m a fan of romantic comedy movies that I shouldn’t be a fan of, and I spend far too much time on social media. Coffee, wine, chocolate and dogs are my vices – if your celebration involves all of these, I’m there! My journey to being a celebrant started during time spent as a semi-professional wedding participant, having twice being a best man and emcee a number of times. Although my love of celebrating the joy of weddings was sparked when I wrote and successfully delivered my first wedding speech while in high school. I help create memorable celebrations with soul, and I write from the heart with a side of thought worked in. I’ll work with you to find out what you’d like to express, how’d you’d like to express and handcraft this into a lasting memory. Please contact me with any questions you might have, and we can connect over coffee or over Zoom to see how I might be able to help you celebrate.
