Congratulations.  Your marriage ceremony needs to be celebrated with the love, caring & style you have always dreamt it would be. So that your ceremony reflects these dreams, we will work closely together to design those very personal vows only couples in love will say to each other on their wedding day. When a couple commit themselves to each other in marriage, they create a bond like none they’ve known before.  The vows they will make to each other will encompass their dreams,  their respect of each other, their traditions & values, their romance, their all-empowering love….. I will integrate your dreams and desires for your journey together, your traditions & values; a ceremony that is perfect for you.

Any location is possible, whether on the beach at sunset, a heavenly starlit garden, a beautiful wedding chapel, on the deck of a yacht cruising the bay, or in the tranquillity of a rainforest. The advantage of using a Civil Celebrant lies in the flexibility offered – you & your partner can be married in exactly the way you have dreamt of.

In our first meeting, we will go through the legal requirements, complete the required forms & plan your romantic wedding ceremony. Maybe you would like to have family and friends participate by reading special verses; you might like to include grandparents or children, or even the family pet? Will a family member be ‘giving you away’? Is there a pen that belonged to your great grandfather that you would like to use for signing the marriage register? Maybe you would like to compose your ceremony taking into consideration the legal requirements. Maybe you just want me to suggest and design vows and readings.  Upon completion, your own vows will reflect the feelings of love and commitment you have for each other.  Do you have questions such as - "Do we have to exchange weddings bands - No;  Do I have to be given away - No; How can we incorporate the children - I have quite a few ideas; Do I have to write my own vows - No; Do I have to memorise my vows - Only if you really want to;  What can we do to make our ceremony different - Let's talk and tailor something to suit your personalities;  We just want to party - That's easy!
 

Our second meeting will be approximately a month before the ceremony. We will finalise & confirm you are delighted with the ceremony. A rehearsal can be available at this time.

On conclusion of your ceremony I will present you with a beautifully prepared Marriage Certificate & a copy of your vows & ceremony to keep with your memories of this wonderful day.

Whether your ceremony is a formal occasion, or a small intimate gathering on a secluded beach, I promise you –

                       Friendly, personal service
                         Professional performance
                           Attention to Detail
                            Your Choice of ceremony
                              Commitment to the success of your special celebration.
