Brisbane, Sunshine Coast & Gold Coast
A Young and Fun Marriage Celebrant who is all about creating a day that’s special, personal and exactly what you want.

Here are just some of the ways we can celebrate....
Mentorship & Ceremonies
Mentorship
Welcome, darling! So, you’ve decided to join the fabulous world of Celebrancy? Bravo!
You’ve got the spark, the passion, and the dream of creating ceremonies that dazzle. But let’s be real for a moment—having the dream is one thing; knowing how to turn it into a thriving, buzzing, five-star business is another.
That’s where I come in. I’m Sian Lavater, the celebrant behind I Do Colourful Celebrations, and for the past six years, I’ve been marrying lovebirds from coast to coast, all over Australia. With a perfect five-star reputation (thank you, thank you!), I’ve mastered the art of creating unforgettable ceremonies and running a business doing what I love—and getting paid for it! Now, it’s your turn!

Renaming Ceremony
🏳️🌈
Rites of passage are essentially human and how we welcome our newest members into our communities. People who have changed their names, their gender and/or their identity can reintroduce themselves to the world.
This ceremony is an essential marker and will create memories for the new journey you are embarking on.
Aww... Shucks!

"THE WORLDS BEST CELEBRANT. Honestly Sian is such a beautiful human and an incredible celebrant. She not only helped me and my husband every step of the way while planning our day but also made me feel like I was being married by a life long friend. I could not be happier and words will not do justice!"

"Sian was everything we could have asked for in a celebrant super professional yet fun. She build a fantastic relaxing atmosphere and made our day just the little bit more special. Would highly recommend her we would love to do it all again!"

"ABSOLUTLEY FABULOUS!! When we came across Sian her happy smile stood out and after reading her reviews we decided to have a chat. From the very first conversation we knew she was the Celebrant for us. Sian took the time and made the effort to get to know us. Know what was important to us, why we were getting married. Sian made our ceremony personal, special and we felt like a friend married us......Sian is a wonderful caring and amazing person who just happens to be a brilliant Celebrant that will make your wedding custom made to suit you, not just reading a script to get the job done. We highly recommend Sian to anyone getting married. She will make your ceremony special in a way you will never forget."

"Sian was amazing from the moment we enquired and became an instant friend! We had a zoom meeting initially and she covered everything about the ceremony in such detail we felt so well informed and relaxed. She was so friendly, responsive and nothing was too much trouble. She tailored our whole ceremony to suit us as a couple there is nothing we would change about our day. Our guests loved the ceremony she created and said it was a true reflection of us. Highly recommend!"
Elizabeth Bodley
"Seriously AMAZING! We could not have asked for anyone better to assist us with our ceremony before, during and AFTER. We had such a enjoyable ceremony with lots of laughter exactly what we wanted. Marcus, myself and Sian got along SO well our guests thought we had been friends for years - I'm happy to say we definitely will be! You can't be in better hands with Sian!"
Sam Dunn
"Sian was nothing short of perfect! Living in the middle of nowhere she managed to work out a way for us to get everything done! She was so kind and funny and just the perfect match for us! We cannot thank you enough for the amazing job you did not only on the day but all the time in between! We love you 💕'”

""Our wedding was a light and humour filled day, perfectly executed and well choreographed, and Sian massaged it all into shape plus then was the glue that held it all together. It was an absolute blast, and so much thanks is owed to the ever so calm and confident Sian. "
