About Josh

Josh Withers is a Tasmanian-based wedding celebrant, storyteller, and entrepreneur who has spent more than 15 years marrying thousands of couples across 20+ countries. He’s co-creator of The Elopement Collective with his wife Britt, founder of the Celebrant Institute, and a voice for doing weddings differently—making ceremonies the most meaningful, human, and joy-filled part of the day. From intimate elopements to big celebrations, Josh brings a mix of warmth, wit, and unshakable professionalism, backed by a career that’s taken him from national radio to global wedding adventures. He’s a lifelong Foo Fighters fan, has an almost suspicious knowledge of Tasmanian history, once photographed the Aurora Australis from his backyard, and will absolutely judge your microphone technique. Whether he’s guiding couples, coaching celebrants, or wrangling life on two acres in the Huon Valley with his young family, Josh is driven by the belief that the work you do should matter—to you, to the people you serve, and to the stories you help tell.
