My Approach

What makes a Betoota ceremony with Josh different

Since 2009, I've been creating custom ceremonies that honour the gravity of marriage while keeping things real, joyful, and deeply personal. This isn't a side hustle — it's my life's work, and Betoota is where my heart is. My Betoota ceremony fee is $4000 including GST.

Words That Matter

I believe we breathe your marriage to life in the heart of Betoota. Every ceremony is written from scratch because your story deserves more than 'insert couple here.' No reading from scripts — just authentic conversation that breathes your union into existence.

Legally Sound

The Marriage Act of 1961 gives me the authority to marry people according to Australian law. I also hold legal authority to perform marriages in the USA and Canada. Your Betoota ceremony will be both emotionally resonant and legally solid.

Professional Sound Equipment

Your ceremony isn't just a moment for you; it's for everyone present in this remarkable outback metropolis. I use professional Bose speakers and Rode audio gear so everyone hears the words that matter, and your videographer gets pristine audio for your keepsake.

Calm Presence

My role is to be a professionally calm and confident voice on your wedding day in Betoota. I hold space for smiles, joy, reflection, and truth—adapting to the moment, the people, the place, and the beautiful chaos with authenticity.

Simplified Planning

No unnecessary meetings or homework. We'll connect as many times as needed for you to feel confident that I understand your vision for your Betoota celebration. I prepare deeply but speak naturally, treating your ceremony as a one-off conversation about something sacred.

Betoota Special Pricing

My Betoota ceremony fee is $4000 including GST, with special rates available for Betoota Advocate readers. This investment covers everything from initial consultation to your perfect day in Australia's most vibrant outback metropolis.

The journey to your wedding

Step 1: Discovery

We'll check your date availability, choose the right package, and begin getting to know each other. This is a relationship, not a transaction.

Step 2: Legal Preparation

At least one month before your wedding, we'll complete the Notice of Intended Marriage together, either in person or via video call. I'll guide you through the legal requirements with clarity and ease.

Step 3: Ceremony Design

Over coffee or video call, we'll explore your story, your values, and your vision. I'll craft a ceremony that reflects who you are as individuals and as a couple, with a clear structure that gives you peace of mind.

Your Wedding Day

I'll deliver your ceremony with presence, professionalism, and personality — creating a moment that anchors your entire celebration.
