Weddings by Yazmin

Yazmin Firkins is a marriage celebrant based in Southport, creating relaxed, modern and deeply personalised wedding ceremonies across the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Byron Bay. Since 2010, she’s been bringing couples’ love stories to life with warmth, humour and genuine connection—whether they’re planning an intimate elopement or a celebration with a hundred guests.

Yazmin’s philosophy is simple: your ceremony should feel like you, not like a script someone else wrote. She specialises in ceremonies that are elegant without the stuffiness, polished without the pressure, and always meaningful. Couples often describe the experience as feeling like a best friend is standing up there with them—someone who gets their story, celebrates their love, and keeps everyone laughing along the way. Her aim is to make your ceremony the most stress-free and most talked-about part of your wedding planning.

Her style is light-hearted and genuinely joyful. Yazmin has a talent for fixing veils, calming pre-ceremony nerves, and staying one step ahead of the action so everything flows seamlessly. She handles all the legal paperwork—no admin headaches—and brings a professional PA system to ensure every meaningful word reaches your guests. Behind the scenes, she’s orchestrating calm, graceful coordination; on the day itself, you simply turn up, soak it all in, and get married.

Yazmin offers flexible packages to suit different celebrations. The Ultimate ‘I Do’ is her full experience: a fully personalised 30-minute ceremony with unlimited support through the planning process, help shaping your vows and ceremony structure, and all legal requirements covered. For those planning something more intimate, the Micro Wedding & Elopement package is perfect for celebrations of up to 30 guests, offering a short, modern and meaningful 15-minute ceremony that never feels rushed or diminished. There’s also a straightforward Legals Only option for couples who want the essentials with minimal fuss.

Beyond ceremonies, Yazmin offers MC services for receptions and runs The Wedding Mic—a roaming video guestbook that captures your guests’ heartfelt messages on the day, creating a keepsake you’ll treasure. Every booking begins with a free Zoom chat, so you can get a genuine sense of her approach and see if you’re a good fit.

With over a decade of experience, Yazmin has worked across the full spectrum of celebrations—from elaborate productions to quiet two-person elopements. Her background and personality shine through in every ceremony she creates: expect joy, laughter, a few happy tears, and a celebration that feels good, genuine, and never awkward. Couples trust her to deliver something that’s authentically theirs, handled with professionalism and heart.
