SERVICES – BOOKING PROCESS


WEDDINGS – SAME SEX MARRIAGES – RENEWAL OF VOWS – BABY NAMINGS

I will work closely with you to prepare a ceremony that reflects your loving feelings for each other.

If you have children, I believe that they should be included in the ceremony as much as possible to make them feel special and part of the ceremony. I can write a ceremony which acknowledges the children and the coming together of all involved as a family.

On confirming a booking, I will email to you a selection of vows and verses, poems, readings, rituals to read through, some of which you may choose to use, or alternatively you may want me to incorporate vows or readings that you have written yourselves. The ceremony should incorporate your feelings you have for each other. I will help you make your ceremony unique to you by personalising it with your story.

I will also draft a ceremony for you from what you tell me you want in a ceremony to make it easier for you to put together a ceremony script. Which can then be changed around to suit your needs and wants. This takes the stress off you as a couple putting a ceremony together. Your own ideas and vows can be also added to the ceremony, after all it is your wedding and your ceremony.

Once we have agreed on a time, date and venue and you have given me the honour of being your Celebrant.

A $200 deposit is required . This covers my time, expenses and confirms that booking date for you. This amount is non-refundable, the balance owing is payable no later than 2 weeks before the wedding date. Payment can be made via direct debit into my account.

– Please be aware that should you change your date, venue or time and I am unable to perform your ceremony the deposit is still non-refundable. As I have committed myself to that time for you and will be unable to re-book.

I am sure you understand that I am a professional celebrant and as such my services and experience is a valuable part of your day.

Renewal of Vows


These ceremonies are becoming very popular and they are for any married couple that wish to celebrate renewing their marriage vows in a unique and personal ceremony. It is also called re-affirmation of vows.

Often these ceremonies are associated with a special wedding anniversary, but the ceremony is just as appropriate for couples at any stage of marriage. It is sometimes particularly relevant to those who have been through a period which put a strain on their relationship, but who wish to celebrate their renewed commitment to each other. Or where you were not able to have the ceremony of your choice on your wedding day.
