I am a professionally trained and Authorised Civil Marriage Celebrant and an Authorized Civil Partnership Notary with over 12 years experience, 900 ceremonies & 450+ testimonials. I offer a highly professional service, delivering your ceremony with love, enthusiasm, positive energy, humour, warmth and creativity to create YOUR perfect day.
Where I have same sex positive noted it is to indicate that the venue has let me know that they welcome Commitments & Civil Partnerships for Same Sex Couples or I have performed a Commitment previously for a Same Sex Couple at that venue. Please note if the venue has no label it simply means you would need to check with them as I have no personal knowledge.
I strive to find the beauty and majesty in life, every moment of every day. When we work together, I look to capture your inner essence and guide you to express those qualities in your ceremony. Communicate your dreams to me and together we will bring them to life, capturing them in the magic of ritual.
I care about what you want and will listen to every detail of your ideas and dreams for your special day. If you are not sure what you want, I can provide you with a wealth of ideas and suggestions or even create an original ceremony for you, reflecting who you are as individuals and as a couple. If you come from different cultures or religious traditions I can blend these and incorporate any other special sub-ceremonies.
I provide you with resources and all the information you need and guide you step by step to create your perfect ceremony. Alternatively I can completely create your perfect ceremony for you after consultation.
I have a wealth of experience in public speaking, event management, communication, dramatic performance and direction, creative storytelling and creative writing. I have travelled the world and encountered a vast array of different cultures and traditions and can integrate their special ceremonial styles or elements of their ritual into the ceremony we design together.
