Dylan Bond Celebrant MC

Dylan Bond Celebrant MC

Dylan is an absolute delight to collaborate with. He transformed our vision into reality, and we felt reassured having him there every step of the way. Our guests couldn't stop talking about him, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. We loved how he worked closely with us to ensure everything was a true reflection of our personalities and style; he even anticipated our needs on the big day that we hadn't thought of. I wholeheartedly recommend Dylan! - Jess & Mark O'Reilly

Having stood beside my dearest friends as they exchanged vows, and being honored to serve as their Master of Ceremonies on numerous occasions, I discovered that my natural flair for instilling confidence and calmness in any situation, paired with my event management experience and engaging personality, made me a perfect fit to become an Authorised Marriage Celebrant in Australia. As a celebrant, I'm laid-back, fun-loving, and full of energy. I truly adore weddings! There's nothing quite like watching the stunning bride walk down the aisle, seeing the groom wipe away a tear, and joyfully announcing, "Ladies and Gentlemen, for the very first time, may I introduce to you..."

Here's what you can expect when you partner with Dylan for your wedding:

**Personalized Ceremony**: Dylan believes that every wedding ceremony should be one-of-a-kind and deeply personal. He takes the time to listen to your dreams and preferences (over coffee or maybe something a bit stronger?) and crafts a ceremony just for you.

**Charming and Humorous Personality**: If you're looking for a celebrant who can bring laughter and joy to the occasion--enchanting even the most reserved guests like Aunt Ruth--Dylan is your guy!

**Experienced Celebrant**: Your wedding will be just one highlight among many for Dylan. With extensive experience, he's equipped with a wealth of knowledge about ceremonies. Whether you need help with your vows, navigating the Notice of Intended Marriage, or choosing a reading, he's here for you.

**Exceptional Public Speaking**: Dylan shines as a public speaker--confident, engaging, funny, and irresistibly charming. You'll appreciate having him narrate your love story or act as your MC during the reception.

**Outstanding MC Services**: Yes, you can book Dylan for both the ceremony and the reception! As a skilled MC, he'll outshine your uncle who's had a few too many drinks or your friend who shies away from the spotlight. He'll keep everything running smoothly and warmly introduce your speakers.

**Management and Planning Expertise**: With a background in European Tour Management and Global Event Planning, Dylan is not only organized but also incredibly punctual. You can rely on him to be present when you need him most. Plus, you might want to consider his wedding planning services!

"In light of all the uncertainty due to COVID-19, Dylan helped us feel calm and excited about our wedding, despite the circumstances. He maintained a professional demeanor while still ensuring the ceremony was fun, which we adored! If you're a 2020 bride facing challenges, I highly recommend reaching out to Dylan. He orchestrated the perfect elopement ceremony, and it was absolutely worth it. Dylan reminded us that love conquers all." - Meg & Luke Hall
