Liz Taylor

Liz Taylor is an authorised Commonwealth celebrant based in Balgowlah on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, bringing nearly 30 years of professional entertainment experience to every ceremony she creates. With over 100 weddings and countless life celebrations under her belt, Liz understands that no two ceremonies are ever the same—and that’s exactly what makes each one special.

Her approach

Liz’s style is distinctly personal, memorable, fun and respectful. She believes that life’s milestones deserve more than just traditional formalities. Whether you’re planning a wedding, commitment ceremony, funeral, naming ceremony or renewal of vows, Liz works collaboratively with you to craft something uniquely yours—something that reflects who you really are and what matters most to you.

Having spent decades as a professional entertainer, Liz is refreshingly open to doing things differently. She actively encourages couples and families to think outside the square and challenge what “should” happen at a ceremony. Want to walk down the aisle to your favourite song instead of the traditional march? Absolutely. Hoping your beloved dog can be the ring bearer? She’s done it before, several times. Liz listens carefully to understand your wishes, gets to know you as people, and then brings your vision to life with creativity and care.
