Creating meaningful memories in the heart of Victoria’s goldfields. Annie Birch offers professional, authorized celebrant services for Ballarat’s grand estates and historic venues.
Regional Expertise
Ballarat is a city steeped in history, offering a unique blend of Victorian elegance and natural beauty. As a regular celebrant in the region, I help couples navigate these historic spaces—from Lake Wendouree to the grand halls of the city—ensuring your ceremony honors both your story and the setting.
Bespoke Heritage Weddings
For those planning a full-scale celebration ($1100) at an iconic venue like Willow & stone estate or the gardens of Mercure Ballarat, I provide a custom-written script and unlimited consultations to ensure your ‘once in a lifetime’ moment is flawless.
Intimate & Garden Ceremonies
Looking for a quiet garden ritual or a micro-wedding ($950) in one of Ballarat’s many parks? I specialize in creating intimate atmospheres that feel grand, regardless of the guest count, using my professional PA system to ensure every word is heard.
Spiritual & Ritual Focus
Ballarat’s natural landscapes are perfect for my Handfasting and Pagan-inspired ceremonies. I work with couples to incorporate rituals that connect their union with the heritage and earth of the Central Highlands.
Travel & Regional Support
I proudly serve the entire Ballarat region, including Buninyong and Creswick. My standard packages include the first 2 hours of travel, making it simple for you to have a dedicated, professional Melbourne-based celebrant for your regional wedding
Legal Peace of Mind
Navigating the legalities of marriage in Australia should be stress-free. I manage all the heavy lifting—from your initial Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) to the final BDM Victoria registration—so you can focus on the celebration.

She is an absolute legend! From day one, she was friendly, organised, and made the whole process feel easy and fun. The ceremony was relaxed, personal, and full of good vibes — and we had so many guests asking if she was a friend because it felt that natural. We’re so glad Annie was part of our day and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her in a heartbeat. If you’re getting married and Annie is available — book her.
