Chris Bragg
Wedding Celebrant, MC & DJ

South Coast, Illawarra & Southern Highlands NSW

Weddings that feel like you: relaxed, joyful, and seamless.

I’m Chris Bragg — Celebrant, MC, DJ, and all-round wedding day wingman.

I’ve spent most of my life working with people: first as a teacher, and now as a wedding celebrant. What I’ve always loved is hearing people’s stories and being part of those big moments that really matter.

These days, I get to do that in the best way possible: standing beside couples on one of the happiest days of their lives. I’m down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and I’ll keep things relaxed and natural. On the day, you can relax knowing I’ll be making sure everything flows just as it should.

I’m based in Dapto, NSW, and I look after weddings right across the South Coast — from Sydney down to Batesman Bay, as well as across the Southern Highlands region. Whether it’s a vineyard in Berry, a beachside ceremony in Wollongong, or a rustic homestead in Bowral, I’ll be there to help make it unforgettable.

Wedding Packages

I know every couple is different, which is why my packages are designed to fit your day without breaking the budget.

The most popular choice is The Works — a full package where I take care of your ceremony, MC duties, and DJ services. From your vows to the dance floor, everything flows seamlessly without you having to think twice.

If you’d prefer to arrange your own music, my Ceremony + MC package is the next most popular option. I’ll guide you through the ceremony and then carry the vibe straight into your reception, keeping things relaxed, fun, professional, and on track.

My Philosophy on Love & Marriage

I’m not really one for the over-the-top, Hollywood version of love. Sure, those big moments exist, but what I value most is the kind of love that feels like home. The quiet comfort between two people who just get each other.

It’s in the small, everyday things — the shared laughs, the inside jokes, the ease of sitting in silence and still feeling completely connected. And yes, it’s also in the wild adventures and unforgettable memories. But it’s the mix of the ordinary and the extraordinary that makes love real.

To me, marriage is about choosing to build something together. It’s a partnership — equal parts, side by side, showing up for each other no matter what life throws your way. It’s the joy of knowing you’ve chosen to spend your life with not just your love, but your best friend.

And the best part? Just like fingerprints, no two love stories are ever the same. That’s what I love most about being a celebrant — discovering what makes each couple’s connection unique and bringing that to life in a ceremony that feels like you.
