About us
Weddings:
The wedding ceremony is the most important part of your day. I will work with you to ensure your ceremony is personalised, special and reflects your story. Whether you want a simple ceremony or a grand affair, a traditional or contemporary celebration, I promise to bring enthusiasm, warmth and passion to the planning process and and to the ceremony on your wedding day.
A civil wedding ceremony enables you to be as creative as you like. You can choose to tailor your entrance, music, declaration of intention, readings, vows and ring exchange, rituals, and couple presentation. It will be a wedding that reflects you. There are endless possibilities and I will love creating with you a ceremony that is memorable and uniquely yours.
My Service ...
Your wedding is all about you and I will ensure that your wedding ceremony fits your personal style. I like to get to know ‘my couples’ so that I can customise your ceremony and ensure you feel comfortable and confident on your special day.
To start your thought process I have a wide-range of resources including readings, poems, vows, rituals, prayers, blessings and ceremonies for you to peruse. Once we have met and discussed your wishes and interests I will begin to prepare your ceremony for you, meeting and communicating with you to create your perfect ceremony.
I always recommend a rehearsal to ensure everything runs smoothly and will assist in managing logistics and requirements on the day to make your wedding ceremony as stress-free as possible. I will arrive at least 30minutes prior to your ceremony and engage with your guests and suppliers in a warm, professional manner. When required I supply and set up a professional, high quality PA system with the ability to play ceremony music. and have many other wedding goodies available on request.
You will receive a beautifully presented copy of your wedding ceremony along with your wedding certificate.

confidentially managed including the preparation and lodgement of all necessary paperwork and certificates. Upon initial contact I will provide you with information regarding the required documentation and I will assist you to complete the Notice of Intended Marriage and other legal records at our first meeting. After your marriage I will lodge all required documentation with Births, Deaths and Marriages, alleviating you of administration tasks.
Naming Ceremonies:
Whether you are welcoming a new baby, blending existing families, or honouring all children of a family, a naming ceremony offers you a symbolic and meaningful, custom-designed celebration.
The celebration of rites of passage and rituals is an important component of our society - they mark a person’s transition through life stages and highlight the values and beliefs important to us. A naming day offers you the opportunity to formally and publicly welcome children into your family and community, express your thoughts and wishes for the child’s future, acknowledge and appoint guardians or godparents and express their wishes and promises to the child, and ceremonially announce the name of the child.
I will work with you to develop a unique and special naming ceremony that portrays the values important to you. I have a number of example ceremonies, rites and traditional rituals that you can peruse and together we will develop a personalised ceremony to honour your family.
When required I supply and set up a professional, high quality PA system with the ability to play ceremony music, and will arrive at your location at least 30minutes prior to the ceremony. You will receive a commemorative naming certificate and beautifully presented copy of your ceremony.
Vow Renewals and Commitment Ceremonies:
Simple romance, a repeat celebration of a wedding held interstate or overseas, a wedding do-over with incorporation of religious or civil components, reaffirmation of your commitment years later, a special anniversary or a large gathering of family and friends - these are all wonderful reasons for celebrating your union or for re-living the marriage, recent or years ago.
Without involving the complexity and legalities of a wedding, a “vow renewal or commitment ceremony” offers you the opportunity to affirm the promises of your union, honour your joy and your expression of love. You have complete flexibility to design a ceremony that reflects your story and a pledge of devotion to each other.
Whether you want this to be a simple affair or elaborate, I will be working with you to create a ceremony which is memorable and suits your occasion. I will bring the same warmth and heartfelt enthusiasm to this ceremony as I do for weddings, and promise to conduct your ceremony sincerely and with genuine happiness for you as a couple.
I have a wide-range of resources including readings, poems, vows, rituals, prayers, blessings and ceremonies for you to peruse, and once we have met and discussed your wishes and interests I will begin to prepare your service, meeting and communicating with you to create your perfect ceremony.
