Jamie & Evan

From Singapore and Nebraska to Maslin Beach

Jamie came from Singapore and Evan from Nebraska to marry at Maslin Beach in Adelaide. Their elopement brought together a long-distance relationship, international travel and a ceremony with room for their own ideas — including dialogue from a video game.

Their review

A nonjudgmental, accommodating, and joyful celebrant that I would recommend to any couple who needs one.

My partner and I are long distance lovers, 13 hours apart and we were scrambling for a celebrant willing to stick with us through the different time zones and travelling logistics. We contacted him about a year before our elopement, and he stuck with us all the way, providing us clear instructions about when and how we could sign forms at embassies outside Australia. Neither my partner or I had much idea what we wanted our wedding to be, but Josh helped turn into something memorable. He made the legal parts painless and the rest of it really fun. Josh never flinched at our silly, personal requests, even going so far as to read dialogue from a video game for us. And in lieu of a wedding photographer, he took wonderful photos and videos that he shared with us on the spot.

We had a wonderful experience with Josh, and would encourage other couples with unique situations like ours to give him a shot, we promise you won’t regret it.
