Meet our Wedding Party

Hi there, 

My name is Debbie Barnett and I have been in the wedding industry for over 25 years as Darwin's leading award-winning stylist and have been a wedding and event coordinator for the last five years. 

My goal is simple. The only thing that is important to me is my client's happiness.  I work tirelessly to ensure all details are covered and the client's vision has been reached.  My timelines are detailed, and I ensure all vendors are aware that they need to adhere to the times they have committed to. This way we ensure that the client event runs smoothly and stress free. 

Over the years we have worked with a wide variety of clients from celebrities to young couples just starting out. I love getting to know them and their unique stories. 

I am passionate about creating memories for my clients and their guests, and I will stop at nothing to ensure every detail of the wedding is perfect!

After initially embarking on a teaching career, my life took a sharp turn when an opportunity presented itself to become a tour guide in Europe. I have since traversed the globe, visiting every continent (including Antarctica!) and engaging diverse groups of people from all aspects of life. Making people feel comfortable whilst enjoying a shared experience is a passion of mine and something that I would love to share with you on your day.

What are my loves you ask? This may surprise you.. but I have my gold certificate in quoting most Disney films whilst munching on any pizza you can put in front of me. Oh, and I'm quite unique as I'm probably the only person in the world that refuses to eat avocado! Give me a tin of milo any day

As a trained and experienced school teacher, I specialise in managing large and small groups with confidence, humour and sincerity. Before, during and after the ceremony you can count on me to be there to make your day a fitting celebration of love and family.

Celebrity Celebrant: Oh and did I mention I was famous for 15 minutes? That’s right, I even was on BBC world news for a live TV interview! (watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zX5FuJt6bhM)
