Sally Bruce Celebrant

Hello there! I’m Sally Bruce, your go-to elopement and wedding celebrant in Boorloo/Perth. Since 2020, I’ve had the privilege of marrying remarkable couples in non-traditional ceremonies across Whadjuk Nyoongar Country.

When I mention ‘non-traditional’ weddings, it’s not about disregarding the cultural or familial traditions that hold significance for you. Instead, it’s about redefining the notion of ‘getting married’ beyond the conventional expectations and formulaic weddings that society often dictates. I’m here to challenge those preconceptions, and if you’re doing the same, you’ve come to the right place!

Whether you’re dreaming of an intimate elopement or a relaxed, casual ‘wedding with elopement vibes’ in Perth’s CBD, Fremantle, the Perth Hills, Matilda Bay, South Perth, along the banks of the Swan River or Canning River, or even in your backyard, Lake Monger, or a stunning Perth beach, I’m here to make it happen. And if you fancy something truly unique, ask me about my ‘married over coffee’ legals-only package, where you can be legally wed in the time it takes to enjoy a latte at a cafe!

Considering an elopement? I’ve been guiding couples through the beautiful journey of eloping since 2020. Elopements allow you to escape the traditional wedding frenzy, focusing on an intimate ceremony just for the two of you.

I’m passionate about eco-friendly weddings and can assist in creating a fabulous eco-conscious celebration. My business values—Earth Care, People Care, and Fair Share—guide everything I do. I revel in crafting laid-back ceremonies, intimate weddings, and ensuring the planning process is enjoyable and stress-free.

From low-key elopements to secret ceremonies or even larger, relaxed gatherings, I’m ready to help. I adore backyard weddings, Airbnb escapades, or elopements in parks, pubs, and cafes.

Words hold immense power. You can personalise your ceremony by adding to the legally required vows. I’ll assist you in crafting your own vows, even if writing isn’t your forte. Our focus will remain on your unique love story, steering clear of outdated norms. If family and children are significant to you, we’ll incorporate them into the ceremony in a way that feels right. And let’s not forget the furry family members—I’m a huge advocate for including pets in weddings. More dogs at weddings, please!

In my commitment to animals and our beautiful planet, I make a donation to a local black cockatoo rescue sanctuary for every couple I marry.

Beyond my role as a celebrant, I’m also a professional actor and voiceover artist, with years of experience speaking in front of audiences. I can share valuable tips to help calm any wedding day jitters.

Couples often describe me as warm, friendly, super-organised, and bringing a calming presence during what can be quite a nerve-wracking time.

When planning your non-traditional wedding, we’ll start with the essential legalities to ensure you’re officially married. From there, we’ll consider the environmental impact of your event, challenging conventional expectations, and including only those elements that truly resonate with you.

I firmly believe that wedding planning shouldn’t be stressful. From my experience with couples, getting married can be a joyful, easy, and stress-free adventure.

If you think we’re a good fit, I’d love to chat soon!
