Jarrad Bayliss Celebrant

Having worked with Jarrad within the wedding industry there was no question as to who we wanted as our celebrant on our wedding day. Jarrad created a beautifully personal and heartfelt ceremony. Our guests are still raving about the love and emotions felt throughout our ceremony. Jarrad's team made the lead up to our wedding stress free and his online portal made submitting all of the paperwork and vows a breeze. You are an absolute legend! Curly & Lauren

Jarrad prepared the most amazing ceremony for us ! We received so many compliments about how we had a great balance of funny and light with moving and sentimental. Some guests actually said its the best wedding they had every been to. The whole thing felt very stress free and genuinely fun which we didn't expect. Jarrad has married most of our friends and we have all used him based on recommendations from those couples, as well as because of how much we enjoyed his weddings as guests. He also gives some great advice before the day, including things you'd never think of to make sure everything goes smoothly and you're prepared. Highly recommend :)

We had chosen Jarrad to be our Celebrant for our special day, and we could not of been happier. We had booked Jarrad 2 years in advance in fear he was going to already been booked out.It was so good having someone who generally cares about couples and making your wedding the most memorable and special day. Everyone keeps telling us how good our Celebrant was as you could tell there was thought and care put into the story that was told and how it suited the type of people we are.Thank you Jarrad for giving us lots of laughs, nerves of excitement and general support for our wedding!

Jarrad was absolutely amazing! From our very first conversation we built an immediate rapport and we could not imagine anyone else performing our ceremony. Our friends and family thought that we'd known Jarrad for years which is a testament to how hard he works getting to know a couple, writing the ceremony and bringing a great energy to the day. We would not have had it any other way!

This review reflects my own experience with Jarrad’s celebrancy services as part of Pash & Dash Weddings - please note that Pash & Dash Weddings assigns vendors through their packages, and as such I did not hand-pick Jarrad as my celebrant.With the above in mind, my relationship with Jarrad was somewhat strained from the beginning.I did not realise at the time of booking my package and subsequently receiving my assigned vendors, that Jarrad also owned Pash & Dash Weddings. This news came to me in a voicemail a few months later when Jarrad first made personal contact with me regarding a problem that had arisen with the venue.Jarrad is at times very argumentative and can be condescending, though I don’t believe that this is his intention.Unfortunately, Jarrad did not carry out a number of details on my wedding day as we had previously discussed. This included how I was to walk down the aisle (with both parents, not just my father), in addition to overlooking a member of our bridal party who missed standing next to my groom during the ceremony.All these details were available to Jarrad via the Pash & Dash portal and had been discussed at length during phone calls and FaceTimes.Further to this, whilst I will acknowledge that Jarrad tried his hardest in being inclusive of my partner’s culture, his opening greeting was not appropriate and completely missed the mark. This could’ve been avoided if Jarrad consulted with myself or my partner prior to the ceremony/wedding day to determine it was a suitable greeting.

Jarrad went absolutely above and beyond. After we were stuck for a new celebrant only a month before our wedding, Jarrad was imcrdiflby accomodating and eager to help. It turned out that it truly was meant to be though, as he completely fit the mould of us, and our wedding. We can’t thank Jarrad enough for being so amazing to work with, it was just like having a friend marry us! We felt like Jarrad gave it everything and really was a huge part of what was, the most perfect day. Thank you so much, I cannot recommend you highly enough! Eb & Jake x

We’re so thrilled we chose Jarrad as our celebrant and MC. The ceremony he wrote was a perfect mix of fun and sentimental and told our story so well.I was so much more relaxed during the lead up to our wedding knowing that Jarrad was in charge of the ceremony and reception. Once we’d given Jarrad the information he needed, we really didn’t worry too much about these parts of the day as we had so much confidence that he was the best person to handle it all.Jarrad made our reception so much fun and really took it to the next level! So many of our guests commented on what an awesome MC he was, and how much fun our reception was. Hiring Jarrad as our MC was the best money we spent on the wedding.

Hi All, Grant & Julie here to say a few words on our experience with Jarrad as our chosen celebrant. We waited for some photos to write this review as a picture speaks a thousand words. We are not first timers and we feel that probably made our day more relaxed, enjoyable and fun as we joined together in a marriage of equality and hearts. If you are looking for a celebrant who will bring joy, laughter, help, fun and individuality to your day then seriously look no further than Jarrad. Jarrad does not just go through the motions reading blandly from his ipad, he makes everyone feel included and gets that 'feel great' space happening for all, including those who could not be with us and attended via 'google meet' online. We looked on the internet as one does (especially in Covid times) and then at Jarrad's profile and reviews. Prior to meeting with Jarrad, Julie had a phone conversation and at this time we could not travel from Brisbane to meet with Jarrad. Once restrictions lifted allowing us to travel more than 50km from home we met with Jarrad and could not have been happier to have our thoughts confirmed, although we had already decided he was the man for us on our day. Jarrad is a special person whom we admired greatly and respected more as our day went on. Jarrad's attention to both the bride and groom and all others in our small wedding party was beyond what we could have hoped for.Look no further!!! You will never find a better person to officiate your special day regardless if you are young first timers'' or aged well'' as we are. A big shout out to Jarrad's team also who made everything effortless and assisted wherever required on the path to our wedding day. Cant thank and recommend Jarrad highly enough. Enjoy your day with Jarrad and we look forward to reading your wonderful positive reviews. Our best to you all and especially Jarrad, his family and team.

Jarrad was highly professional, personal and charismatic.We could not recommend him more. We are so thankful he was available to be our celebrant and with such short notice our MC on our wedding day! All of our guests thought he was key to keeping our wedding running smoothly, but also keeping everyone entertained throughout the night!
