About Me

My name is Ivan Conway; I am a Civil Marriage Celebrant and a Justice of the Peace. My wife, Maureen and I have resided permanently in the Airlie Beach area since December 1997 and have always taken our holidays in the Whitsundays for the past 30 years. I was actually christened on Daydream Island in 1944, my parents occasionally managed the island and conducted concert parties for the american sailors. The then owners of Daydream were the Moodies who were my godparents.

I have been officiating at Weddings, reaffirmation and Naming ceremonies for more than twenty years on the Central Highlands coal fields, Rockhampton and Mackay and here in the beautiful Whitsunday's since December 1997. Being a professional Marriage Celebrant, I am bound by a Code of Practice and a Complaints Mechanism which are contained in the Marriage Regulations 1963. This document can be either viewed or downloaded from HERE

I took early retirement from the coal mining industry in December 1997 after serving almost 40 years as an underground coal miner to further my career as a Marriage Celebrant in the Whitsunday's. I am committed to my role as a Marriage Celebrant and have officiated at many beautiful and memorable ceremonies in the Whitsunday's and surrounding areas and Islands. Many of the highlights of my career as a celebrant in the Whitsunday's have involved officiating my daughter's wedding on Hamilton Island and numerous ceremonies aboard a beautifully restored square rigged sailing ship named Solway Lass, aboard "Whitsunday Magic" and at beautiful Whitehaven Beach and of course on all of the island resorts.

Being resident in Airlie Beach, I am able to effectively provide immediate attention to couples contemplating their wedding ceremony in the Whitsunday's and the many beautiful island locations.

I also have immediate access to qualified Wedding Consultants, Venue Decorators, Travel Agencies, Photographers, Videographers, Hairdressers, Beauty Therapists and Florists who are able to meet your every need when planning your ceremony. Limousine, vintage and luxury car hire is also available at excellent rates. These professional people have a price structure to meet every budget.

I have held my Private Pilot's Licence since 1971 and have access to an aircraft if required to travel away for a ceremony to either the coalfields or nearby towns. The aircraft gives me immediate fast access to Hamilton and Lindeman Islands, Laguna Whitsundays Resort and many of the inland Townships.

I would appreciate your consideration if the need arises for my services. I can be contacted by telephone, facsimile or e-mail at any time.
