Jaya Bargwanna

I’ve been marrying laidback legends since 2019 and have the pleasure of making over 300 love stories official.
I’ve married my brother, my sister, my cousin, close friends, fellow vendors, team-mates, school pals, my long time idol and literally hundreds of people that will forever remain dear to me.
There’s been weddings with crowds in the 200s, and those where I’ve brought along my husband to bear witness. There’s been lavish affairs, back yard soirees, Indian fusion parties and midweek mornings spent at a favourite beach.
I’ve married cis-het couples, celebrated alternative relationships and cried joyous tears as two husbands share their first kiss.
And EVERY single time, I feel the immense privilege of what it means to be sharing in two people’s tale.

If you make it to my website, it will tell you that I’m a purveyor of vibes, curator of tales and maker of marriages – and, in a nutshell, that’s what the JBCC (Jaya Bargwanna Celebrant) experience is all about.

I’m here for the laidback lovers seeking a charismatic, engaging and memorable ceremony experience. When a cookie-cutter snooze-fest doesn’t fit the vision, I’ll step in creating a rom-com featuring all your nearest and dearest, setting the tone for a warm, joy-filled – and (somewhat) raucous celebration!

There’ll be giggles of delight, a smattering of tears and a mild tinge of envy as your closest people hear the tale of you in a way that’s never before been told.

AND if that’s not enticing enough – I offer my signature gin mixing as an optional add-on for all ceremony packages. Create your own gin blend mid-ceremony. It’s a tasty treat with a sweet-as sentiment!

I’m playful, energetic and a peer-described dork. A mum of two, wife of one and a total mixed-bag human.

When not hitching heart-throbs, you’ll find me splashing in the surf, kicking the ball down at Dudley (#upthethistles), donned in a white lab coat as a pharmacist, or curled up in the sun – G+T in one hand, book in the other.
