LEI-AHNA NEWELL

Celebrant Gold Coast - Janda Events

YOUR ULTIMATE FEMALE CELEBRANT ON THE GOLDCOAST

A wedding celebrant with sunshine in her soul and the best wedding wing woman. 

Lei-Ahna keeps her husband, kids, border collie and the Janda Fam alive, so I think she can handle your best day ever. She’s a lover of fashion, a lover of laughter, and a lover of human beings. Especially ones in love with each other.

Regardless of the size of your posse, or the location of your wedding ceremony, Lei brings warmth, laughter, and a feeling of togetherness to your ceremony space. A space that – let’s face it – can easily feel tense, awkward or stressy. Whether it’s an intimate elopement with just your immediate fam and closest humans or a big, bold, boisterous wedstival vibe, Lei has a way of making everyone feel like a dear friend. Did we mention she also loves a laugh? She is famous for that laugh. And for good reason. It’s contagious and disarming, and a much-loved extension of her true personality.

Lei believes hum-drum ceremonies
belong in the past

That times have changed. And that, while tradition is lovely, your wedding ceremony can be chock-full of loveliness and heart and happiness, simply by keeping it human. Lei will get to know you (a process that will no doubt be a pleasure for both you guys, and her) – like, really get to know you – and craft a ceremony that speaks of where you come from; what you’re passionate about; and who you truly are. And on the day she’ll be that bubbly, positive friend that makes you feel comfortable, confident and empowered – just by being around.

Lei loves nothing more than getting to know you and your unique love story.

She wants all the juicy deets! Like which dating app you met on, who said I love you first, embarrassing pet names you have for each other, and more. From the deep to the dorky details of your relationship, Lei collates it all and takes your family and friends on a journey. There’ll be the perfect mix of nostalgia, humour and heart. Not only will your favourite people get to reminisce, but they may even learn some new things about you two. Heck, you may learn a new factoid about each other! One thing’s for sure – your ceremony will be loaded with feels that resonate with you.

Lei knows that weddings are inherently stressful events to pull together and that you’ve likely got loads on your plate, so it’s always her aim as a marriage celebrant to make the whole process as smooth and stress-free as possible. From the initial communications and meetings, through to the lodgement of your legal paperwork, you’ll be kept in the loop while she takes care of it all.

Lei’s background (and other true passion) is fashion. So you know she’ll be interested in, and mindful of-, what you and your bridesmaids are wearing, as well as your day’s overall aesthetic. Few know that she also owned a ballet studio and taught dance around the world so may even be able to give you a few pointers on some moves to bust out later on the d-floor!

The evolution from Ballerina to Fashionista, to Marriage Celebrant, isn’t exactly a typical one. And it’s no secret that Lei discovered her calling and passion for being a Gold Coast wedding celebrant by accident – through her husband Jake. Jake’s been in the industry for over ten years as a well-regarded musician, and more recently as a Gold Coast wedding celebrant. So you could say that Lei’s industry education had the benefit of insider info. Lei’s passion for people and zest for life are immediately apparent. Sit down for a coffee and a chat, and you’ll want to be besties – so having her as your celebrant is like getting another gal-pal in your bride tribe. No-brainer really.
