As a Civil Celebrant it is my pleasure to officiate your ceremony. I never forget that this day is all about YOU.
Many couples are unaware of how a celebrant officiating their wedding ceremony can open doors to originality so their special day will be one remembered not only by the couple, but remembered by their guests in years to come.
When using a Civil Celebrant for a wedding ceremony, a couple is not confined to a building or particular literature that has been used by so many couples before them. Using a Civil Celebrant like myself and through mutual respect and openness, we will create a day unlike any other.
Every ceremony should be unique and that's why I write all of my ceremonies from scratch. The content of every ceremony I perform comes from the couples involved. Through unlimited consultations I will listen to your dreams and needs and we will create your day as you want it to be.
I make a point of promising you that I only perform one ceremony per day... so on your day,
I AM THERE FOR YOU.
Depending on the couple and the circumstances, there are many reasons for renewing marriage vows.
Some want to declare their continuing love to each other and include their friends to witness.
Perhaps the couple have been married for a number of years and wish to celebrate the milestone with a memorable event.
Or in some cases a couple might find themselves getting married overseas or interstate and they could not invite their friends and family to the marriage.
Whatever the reason, together we can create a personal, intimate and meaningful ceremony that will be remembered.
Commitment Ceremonies - it's not only for same sex couples
A commitment ceremony represents the emotional and physical commitment of two people to one another.
Even though not recognised in Australia as a 'legal' commitment, the demonstration of such a ceremony in front of family and friends confirms the love between the couple and unites them as Life Partners.
A commitment ceremony can be used by man and woman who wish to declare their love and commitment to each other without the legal paperwork.
Funeral Ceremonies - A Personal Touch
Saying goodbye to our loved ones is never easy. Allowing me to create a personalised ceremony with respect for your dear departed is the least I can do. I will present a meaningful commemoration in a professional manor.
Incorporating family and friends into ceremonies is a beautiful touch to commemorate how much the deceased has meant to them.
Sub Ceremoines like candle lighting or video tributes can also add to the personal goodbye.
Baby Naming ceremonies are becoming increasing popular amongst parents with newborn children.
It is a celebration of the birth of the child and a welcoming into the family that will help raise and guide the child in years to come.
Rather than godparents, you may want to use the term guardians or mentors (who may be friends or family), and they will be involved in the ceremony and will need to say that they will be there for your child as he or she grows up and throughout their life in whatever way is needed.
