“I don’t marry people because it’s my job, I do it because I love what I do and I’m honoured to have been chosen
to be a part of one of the biggest days of your life. My aim has always been to leave my couples with a happy heart”
– Chris Temov
It's about total respect.
I’ve spent over 20 years working in the wedding industry, first as a wedding photographer and later as a videographer, so I understand what helps couples feel relaxed, confident, and truly celebrated.
​
I was born and raised in Australia, with a European background, and I’ve travelled widely. That experience has given me a real appreciation for the role family, culture, and tradition can play on a wedding day.
​
Above all, I believe weddings should be joyful and personal. I take the time to understand you, your families, and what matters most, and I treat every couple like friends.
My aim is always the same: a ceremony that feels genuine, meaningful, and unmistakably yours.
We had the privilege of Chris marrying us. He was just perfect with his professional, yet warm and personalised delivery. We couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant and would recommend him in a heart beat. We actually saw him at a friends wedding and knew we wouldn’t find a better celebrant so booked him in. I’m yet to see (and doubt I will ever see) a better celebrant. Thank you Chris for making our day perfect.

Just some testimonials
Thank you so much Chris, we are just at the airport about to leave on our honeymoon, but I had to let you know that we are just so happy with how the whole day turned out and we had so many comments about what a great wedding celebrant you are! Thanks for such a beautiful ceremony.

Although we only met twice before our wedding, it honestly felt like we were being married by a ‘long time’ family friend. Your easy manner, sense of humour and wonderful way with words, make you such a natural Celebrant.. ..you’re simply the best! Thank you Chris.

From the moment we met him, he made it clear that anything was achievable and there was nothing that was too big an ask. He is personable, kind and has a great sense of humour.
Our guests are still complementing our choice in Chris. He’s a crowd pleaser and as far as Andre and I go, he made us feel great in knowing we made the right choice! Do yourself a favour and go no further in your Celebrant search, you’ve just found Perth’s número UNO!

Chris was the perfect celebrant for us. He was both professional and personable and from our first meeting made us feel at ease. He knew exactly what we wanted and gave us the special, meaningful ceremony we were after. I would definitely recommend anyone to use Chris for their wedding!

From our first meeting with Chris we knew we loved him and was perfect to represent us on such a big day. He understood exactly what we wanted for our service and even helped with some ideas on what could make our service even better . Chris was professional, funny and engaging . What he delivered at our service made it sound like he had known us for years and many guests commented on how much they enjoyed our service and that they thought Chris was a personal friend because of the way he spoke about us.
Before the ceremony commenced Chris checked on both myself and my now husband to see how our nerves were holding up and to offer kind words and advise which I thought was not only helpful and calming but a lovely touch and a true testament to his character . Thank you Chris for making our service so personal and special!
Thank you, Krissy & Paul

A few simple steps
Step 1: Get in touch
It starts with a quick chat. A phone call is often easiest, but you’re also welcome to email or use the “Make an Enquiry” form below. We’ll talk through your plans, dates, availability, and fees, and I’ll explain the marriage process so you know exactly what to expect.

​
Step 2: We meet
We catch up over a coffee at my home office and talk through your ideas. I’ll show you sample ceremony formats and we’ll start shaping something that feels like you. The best ceremonies often include the small details: how you met, what makes you laugh, the music you love, the things that make your relationship yours.
​
Step 3: The legal side
We meet again to complete the required legal paperwork. It sounds serious, but it’s straightforward. I’ll guide you through everything and take care of preparing and lodging all documents on your behalf.
​
Step 4: Your ceremony takes shape
Based on our conversations, I’ll write a draft ceremony for you to review. You’ll have full support from me throughout, by phone, email, or in person. I usually send the draft about a month before your wedding, giving you plenty of time to suggest changes before we finalise it.
​
Step 5: Rehearsal (optional)
Not every couple needs a rehearsal, but it can be very helpful. This is a chance to walk through the ceremony, fine-tune the script and music, and settle any last-minute details. (this is available to Option 3 ceremonies)
​
Step 6: Your wedding day
I’ll arrive early, take care of the flow, and lead your ceremony from start to finish. Afterward, I’ll lodge all legal documents so you can relax and enjoy the celebration and the life you’re beginning together.
Please feel free to get in touch with me directly if you prefer. I'm very happy to talk to you about your individual requirements, check on prices, availability or the marriage process. Select Email, Facebook or you can call me
