About
Married By Elvis is a singing impersonator for hire in Brisbane, QLD.
Your celebrant is Elvis. Tristan James officiates the ceremony in character, sings you down the aisle if you want that, and then keeps going through the reception with the hits and a run of rock and roll. He'll MC as well, so the running order stays in one pair of hands rather than being handed to whichever guest volunteers. A Top 20 finalist at the Cooly Rocks On festival, he covers the ceremony, the singing and the whole night, or just the pieces you need. He needs a speaker, a microphone and a 3.5mm cable into the system, though that can be supplied, plus a lockable dressing room and a meal on the day.
The show
Elvis marries you, then Elvis plays your reception. Tristan James takes the ceremony in character, sings live through it, and carries on into the night with the hits and a run of rock and roll to get people dancing. He MCs too, so the transitions are handled by someone who's already up the front rather than a nervous mate with a microphone. One practical note worth knowing: a separate celebrant attends to complete the legal paperwork while Tristan runs the ceremony itself. He's fronted the Australian Elvis Band and was a Top 20 finalist at Cooly Rocks On in 2024.
On the day
A speaker, a microphone, and a 3.5mm cable to plug into the system. If your venue can't cover that, Tristan can bring it himself. He'll also need a private lockable dressing room for the day, and a vendor meal at some point during the reception.
Performance options
Take the lot or take a piece of it. Tristan officiates the ceremony, sings during it, MCs the reception, and performs as your wedding singer through the night. Couples who already have a celebrant they love often book just the singing, and some book only the MC role. Tell him which parts of the day you want covered.
