So WHO IS NIKKI?
“Finding the right celebrant was one of the most important aspects of our wedding, and Nikki surpassed all our expectations. Her ability to write and tell someone’s story is truly incredible, and her words are genuinely beautiful. We were searching for someone who, despite not knowing us, could write about our love story as if she had been a part of it from the beginning. Nikki did just that and more.”
CELEBRANT, mc, CREATIVE WRITER, ENGAGING STORY TELLER: LOVE PARTY STARTER!
servicing: the South West, perth, north west, melbourne & WILL JUMP ON A PLANE TO MARRY LOVERS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY!
Vibrant, Passionate, Warm, Relaxed and Fun are just some of the adjectives that have been used to describe me. I’m a one of a kind Celebrant who unashamedly loves a puffy sleeve, dopamine dressing, pops of pink, 90’s movie memes, humans hurting themselves in reels: the funny fails, not violence! And my two entertaining and adorable mini Dachshunds who think they’re humans keep me laughing daily! I don’t mind a post ceremony glass of Bubbles and chat with your favourite people after marrying you on your wedding day too as I’m a social butterfly at heart, and that’s why this career is so perfectly suited for me.
I’m a Mum of 2 amazing teenage boys who I live with in my coastal inspired home by Geographe Bay in Busselton, and a self confessed dreamer! Always thinking of my next business idea, making travel plans for the off season and snuggling with my two spoilt fur babies Daphne, & Winnie, the south west’s most spoilt mini dachsunds.
Knowing ceremonies could be done better when I started in this industry, and in search of innovators in the celebrant world, I flew around the country networking, researching, and learning from masters in the world of Love, figuring out exactly how to master the art of engaging and wowing wedding guests on a mission to provide enagaged couples the wedding day they dreamed of! Now having married over 410 couples in the last than 7 years, my little love biz NEEDED to expand! So it did and in 2022/23 and I recruited 6 other incredible local marriage celebrants who were working under the Love Empire brand.
However, life changes and with the new financial year just beginning ………….
A New Chapter BEGINS (That Still Feels Like Home)
After several incredible years leading a team of talented celebrants under the Love Empire brand, I’ve made the heartfelt decision to return to what I love most: creating unforgettable ceremonies as a dedicated solo celebrant.
Love Empire was built with heart, hustle, and a whole lot of champagne fuelled joy, and I’m so proud that it became one of the South West’s most sought after celebrancy businesses, with six professionals working under my wing at its peak.
Along the way, I’ve been lucky to be featured in leading wedding magazines & online directories such as Hello May, Polka Dot Wedding, and To the Aisle Australia. I was also invited to write for the South West Bridal magazine and directory: From this Day, and was a 2023 Finalist in the Customer Experience Award at the South West Business Excellence Awards.
But with the new financial year in 2025 I’m back to the original plan: just me — showing up for you. Wholeheartedly!
And that means when you book Love Empire now, you’re getting me: the storyteller, the calm presence, the confetti wielding queen who will pour everything into making your ceremony feel magic, personal and completely you, and I promise you this: your wedding guests will walk away from your ceremony asking how long we’ve been friends for as the detail and heart I bring to your wedding day is unmatched and something I take great pride in.
I’m the lady behind the scenes of Love Empire, Effortlessly Wed an elopement collab with a local photographer, House of Love: my educational and mentoring side of business & previously hired my celebrant wardrobe to local ladies via Empire Hire, but too many interruptions to my work day saw me close that down and refocus.
I take on a limited number of weddings I conduct per season so I can keep on top of the day to day running of all parts of the business, ensuring each couple who lock me in are given all of the time, energy, expertise and love they deserve.
“Nikki was our incredible MC for the night too and really made it extra special. Highly recommend!”
“We also had Nikki as our MC for the night as well and it was like she had known us for years, she knows how to engage the crowd, grab their attention and get people to listen, she was super professional and everyone else that spoke on the night ended up being so calm and relaxed as well and I truly believe that was thanks to the tone Nikki had set for the night. On top of that Nikki understands how weddings run so it is easy for her to know what happens next and when to talk. I am so glad we chose her to MC for us so that all our guests could enjoy their night and not have the pressure of running the evening and believe me she will tell your story better than any guest could.”
“I’ve not only had the pleasure of working alongside Nikki as a wedding vendor, but I’ve been lucky enough to have had her be my celebrant and MC for my own wedding. Nikki is the most professional, down to earth and easy going person I’ve ever met. Her ceremonies are written so beautifully, and keeps wedding guests engaged through out the ceremony, which are always full of laughter and emotions. She went absolutely above and beyond for us, and I can honestly never thank her enough.”
