In 2025, a diverse group of young Australians, including a wedding-loving teacher, a queer youth worker, and a divorced TV presenter, are finding their way through modern romance and online dating, while also working as marriage celebrants. The number of registered celebrants in Australia has surged by 20% since 2018, reflecting the growing demand for non-religious weddings.

A vibrant mix of celebrants now grace the scene, from those in their twenties and thirties embracing casual attire to the increasing number offering DJ services. As they officiate weddings, these celebrants share insights into their own love lives, revealing the complexities of navigating relationships amidst the backdrop of love and commitment they witness.

Melanie Jacklyn, a primary school teacher and celebrant, highlights the irony of being seen as having a perfect love life, while actually grappling with modern dating challenges. Shan Mann reflects on the value of slow-burning relationships, realising the potential for depth in platonic love. Meanwhile, Glenn Millanta shares how officiating weddings helped him through his divorce by reaffirming his belief in love.

Each celebrant learns valuable lessons on relationships—whether it’s Jas Kerry’s quest for profound love or Aaron McDonnell’s reflections on his single status. Together, their stories illustrate the evolving landscape of love and relationships in Australia, intertwining personal growth with the joy of celebrating others’ love.
