Weddings


Your wedding day is the first day, of the rest of your new life.

 

Having total confidence in a celebrant who, with you and your partner, can create the perfect ceremony for you is a decision not to be taken lightly. Your hopes and dreams belong to you.

As I am an Authorised Marriage Celebrant, I can deliver you your fingerprint ceremony. Your ceremony can be held where ever you desire, a beach, a retreat, a mountain top or it can be a formal occasion. If you can get there so can I.

Just like no one has the same fingerprint, your wedding ceremony will be uniquely designed. I have resources to draw inspiration from and these will be at your disposal. Together we can create a ceremony that blends the past into the future.

Your ceremony will reflect your hopes and dreams, and apart from the legal requirements of Section 46 of the Marriage Act, governed by the Attorney General’s office, you have liberty of choice.

The ceremony can include a variety of symbols, rituals and readings or it can be intimately short if you wish. This option is yours!


The Legal requirements:

  • A Notice of Intended Marriage form must be signed by both parties

  • The NOIM must be lodge with your marriage celebrant one month and one day before your wedding date.

  • Birth Certificate/ passports need to be provided as does photo ID.

  • Both persons to the marriage are required to be 18 years of age or over.

  • If you have had a previous marriage/s, a copy of the last Certificate of Divorce or a Death Certificate (if widowed) needs to be provided.

This ceremony is a where couples can share the joys of the past and dreams of the future.

 

It is a time to share your love with old and new family members.

Commitment Ceremonies


Commitment Ceremonies


This is a ceremony where commitment begins

 

While this ceremony can be performed very similar to a Marriage ceremony, this ceremony is not legal. The pledging of love, exchanging of rings and vows is crafted to suit your desires.

What this ceremony does, is to provide the chance for couples to declare their love and commitment to each other. Share your hopes, challenges and dreams in front of your family and friends.

Baby Naming Ceremonies


Baby Naming Ceremonies


This is a celebration ceremony for families and friends to welcome the gift of a child or children into the family circle of love.

 

Whether the child is a newborn, an infant or is in adolescence, or to create a new blended family this is a time for celebration. It can also be a time to share any meaning, or the significance of your child’s name.

Rituals can be used in these ceremonies, a way to involve a variety of your guests.   

The commitment of a Godparent/s is to nurture a relationship of love and support by holding their hands into the unknown future.

It allows families to express the reasons for the names chosen for your children and the significant impact of love that has been brought in.

Together we will create a ceremony designed uniquely for you.
