Weddings

I believe that your wedding day should be one of the happiest days of your life. It is the one day where a couple have the opportunity to commit and show love for each other in front of family and friends and should be as stress free as possible.

As a professional celebrant I am fully aware of the details and problems involved in planning a wedding and this is why your celebrant needs to be trusted to perform your ceremony in the manner you want.

When I first meet with a couple I discuss their requirements and make any suggestions necessary. I have a broad range of ceremonies I have previously conducted as well as a number of internet sites, readings and poems available. A couple must be fully informed and comfortable with the ceremony they require.

Different couples have different requirements. I always encourage a couple to think about the wording of their ceremony and suggest that they write their own vows and have their own readings, poems or similar. I fully appreciate that many couples may find this a little daunting and of course in that instance I am more than happy to write an entire ceremony personally tailored to each couple. In other words, I write a service that is indicative of their relationship and love for each other.

I provide a questionnaire for each couple to complete and this provides me with the information to include in the ceremony especially pertaining to how the relationship began and developed which I incorporate in the ceremony as an introduction. This serves to personalise the wedding more not only for the couple but also family and friends.

I am happy to conduct your ceremony in any location and my fee includes unlimited consultation with you and travel to and from the wedding.

As a member of the Australian Federation of Civil Celebrants and a member of The Association of Civil Marriage Celebrants Victoria I provide a professional service and am always striving to improve and develop my expertise. I am bound by a strict code of ethics set out by the Federal Attorney General and am proud of my personal and professional standards.

Conducting a wedding brings me great joy. I LOVE meeting couples and have a lot of fun preparing a ceremony with them. I have often kept in contact with people who I have conducted ceremonies for and am proud and honoured to be a celebrant.
