Celebrating 10 Years as a Celebrant!
04 July 2024
On 26th September 2014 the Attorney General’s Department approved my application to become an Authorised Marriage Celebrant. A dream come true, and a whole new world of happiness ahead. Receiving that official letter in the mail filled me with so many emotions, and the reality that I had been afforded the privilege to celebrate this milestone moment with couples and I did not take that responsibility lightly. Setting up a small business and finding my unique way to ensure the difference I offer to my couples to bring their dreams to life has been ever evolving since that first day. I never want to be complacent and say “that’s how I do it”! For me, its all about immersing myself into listening, helping and creating the best ceremony experience for my couples, so when they take that big step and wed, it’s a happy, relaxed and no stress experience. My …

15 June 2024
Definitely, yes. Absolutely, yes. Unquestionably, yes! A back up plan is an essential detail to think about when planning your big day. This is especially true if your ceremony is outside. I urge you to consider what you will do if weather is less than ideal on your big day. When it comes to the weather – it’s the one thing that none of us can control! You may think your day couldn’t possibly be interrupted by bad weather conditions. Let me assure you – anything is possible. I have supported many upset couples trying to cope with their garden and outdoor wedding ceremony locations in rainstorms, muddy and extremely slippery ground, heat waves and even bushfires. These scenarios will cause you stress on the one day you want to be happy and have everything go to plan. Having a Plan B will make your wedding day and your dreams …

How to Create a Romantic Wedding with Personal Vows

As your Celebrant, you will have access to the quality information I provide only to my couples. Don’t stress thinking it can be daunting knowing where to start. Personalising your wedding vows can be a lovely way to add something special to your ceremony but it’s also daunting. I love to work with you to make designing your ceremony an easy and stress-free process, and importantly give you a wealth of information on writing kick-butt vows to share with your forever love on the big day! Lots of couples I have worked with (and that’s also the brides, not just the grooms) are worried their vows may sound too mushy or soppy, and so they hold back from including anything too personal. But in my experience, guests are delighted with mushy and sentimental vows, particularly if the couple aren’t usually overly romantic in public. After all, if you can’t be …
