Craig Jones Celebrancy Services

Craig Jones understands that your wedding day is uniquely yours. As an experienced Commonwealth authorised marriage celebrant serving the Huon Valley, Hobart and surrounding areas, Craig specialises in creating personalised ceremonies that authentically reflect your story, values and vision. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, Craig works with couples to design a ceremony that feels genuinely meaningful—not a generic template, but a true reflection of who you are together.

A Collaborative Approach

Craig’s approach is fundamentally about partnership. He doesn’t simply write your ceremony and hand it over. Instead, he works in genuine partnership with you throughout the planning process, taking time to understand your story—how you met, what matters to you both, your hopes for the future, and your sense of humour and personality. He listens to your ideas and preferences, asks thoughtful questions, and helps you articulate what you want your ceremony to convey. This collaborative process means you’ll have multiple opportunities to refine the ceremony, ensuring it feels authentic and reflective of your relationship. Craig is responsive and flexible, working with you to make adjustments and get every detail right before your big day.

Your Ceremony, Your Way

Craig believes there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to celebrating commitment. That’s why he offers a full spectrum of services, from straightforward legal ceremonies to elaborate, bespoke celebrations tailored entirely to your preferences. If you want a simple, no-fuss legal marriage with the essentials covered, Craig can deliver exactly that. If you want a deeply personalised ceremony that weaves in your family stories, cultural traditions, humour, values and vision for your future together, he’ll work closely with you to create something truly special.

Comprehensive Celebrancy Services

Beyond weddings, Craig conducts commitment ceremonies for same-sex couples, vow renewals for couples recommitting to each other, naming ceremonies for newborns, and celebrations of life honouring loved ones with dignified, personalised memorial ceremonies. He brings the same thoughtful, personalised approach to every occasion. As someone who identifies as LGBTIQA+, Craig ensures all his services are LGBTQIA+ inclusive, where love is celebrated for everyone. You are most definitely welcome here.

As a Commonwealth authorised marriage celebrant, Craig is fully qualified to conduct legally binding marriage ceremonies throughout Australia. You can have complete confidence that your marriage will be properly registered and recognised.

Stunning Tasmanian Settings

Based in the beautiful Huon Valley region south of Hobart, Craig serves couples throughout Hobart and the surrounding areas.

Whether you’re planning a local celebration or having guests travel from interstate or overseas, Craig is well-positioned to help bring your vision to life and create unforgettable moments that reflect your unique personalities and wishes.

What to Expect

When you work with Craig, you can expect professionalism combined with genuine warmth and approachability. He takes his legal responsibilities seriously but doesn’t let formality overshadow the joy and celebration of your day. He’ll guide you through the process, answer your questions, help you navigate decisions about ceremony structure and content, and show up on the day fully prepared and ready to help you celebrate. Craig understands that planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, with countless decisions to make and many moving parts to coordinate.
