How does it all work?
First of all, we need to meet! I would absolutely love to meet you face to face at your earliest convenience, so give me a call so we can work out a time.
This first meeting is obligation free, and I really mean that. I won’t pressure you if it doesn’t feel like a good fit, but I pride myself on my ability to relate to people so I’m confident that we’ll hit it off!
If you decide you’d like me to officiate your special day, you’ll choose which package suits you best and pay a deposit - and I’ll get to work to make sure its exactly what you want!
Depending on the package you want, the process will be a little different. If you want “Love and More Love”, we’ll meet up a couple of times to make sure I’ve got your love story etched in my memory. If you’ve chosen “Legals Only”, we’ll skip right to the paperwork!
Regardless of the package, you’ll have unlimited access to me via phone, email and whatever other channel suits us best.
What paperwork is involved?
For all weddings, couples will have to fill in a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) at least 30 days before the ceremony is to take place.
Before, and as close to the ceremony as possible, couples need to complete:
“Declaration of No Legal Impediment to Marriage”On the day of your wedding, couples need to complete:
A) Official Certificate of Marriage - the copy to I will send to Births, Deaths & Marriages on your behalf
B) Official Certificate of Marriage - one copy I keep for my records
C) Certificate of Marriage - YOUR COPY!!
The good news is, I’ll walk you through the whole process of paperwork. I’ll also lodge the forms on your behalf to Births, Deaths & Marriages after the ceremony, while you’re blissed out on your honeymoon, or catching up on much needed sleep!
What sets you apart from other celebrants?
Having sat with many people from all walks of life throughout my previous work as a therapist, I have been humbled by the hearts capacity to heal and love.
I will help you both find the best way forward to honouring your profound love for each other.

Do you support and officiate at same sex weddings?
100% COMPLETELY AND ABSOLUTELY!
I consider myself privileged to be able to say;
“Marriage, according to law in Australia, is the union of two people to the exclusion of all others”, rather than the old, exclusive and outdated terminology.
Love is Love.
