As your celebrant, I work in consultation with you to create a ceremony that reflects your values, ideals, your relationship and what you want for your special day - a ceremony that is meaningful for both of you.

Your vows will provide intention and energy to your marriage. It is important that the words of the ceremony feel familiar and comfortable for you. What is it that you love about your partner? What will you promise each other?

This is your opportunity to be as romantic as you want. Or to invoke the angels to surround you and bless your marriage with their presence in your life. To raise the energy with some chanting and bell ringing, return to ancient ways with handfasting and invocations to the elements and directions, or to dress in the most formal white dress and black suit you both will ever own and walk down the aisle of a beautiful country chapel.

The great thing about using a civil marriage celebrant for your ceremony is that the sky is your limit, or the top of a bridge, the edge of the sea or within a natural cathedral in the forest. You can also use one of the very beautiful wedding venues in south east Queensland - chapels, rooms with a beautiful outlook, beautiful gardens, your own home, a country barn or pub, a rainforest retreat.

And the options for the words and elements of the ceremony are unlimited. You can choose your vows. I just need to say a couple of phrases to make it legal but the rest of the wedding ceremony is whatever you choose it to be.

And as you may not have done this before, I will give you all the guidance and support you need to plan your ceremony - I provide you with information and suggestions for each step of the ceremony. You may want a relaxed and casual ceremony, or a very formal ceremony, something light hearted and uplifting or a very unique ceremony - I am happy to work with you so that your ceremony is all that you wish it to be.

You are always welcome to ask me questions and ask for suggestions for your individual wedding ceremony. Together we work on the ceremony and get the details right. We meet in person and keep in contact by telephone and emai or through a chat program (Yahoo or Messenger). Once you have booked my services, I send you an information pack outlining the steps in your wedding ceremony and giving you the resources and support you need to choose your vows and the elements of the ceremony.

Remember to lodge a Notice of Intended Marriage with your celebrant at least one month and one day before your wedding. I will help with this. See Legal Bits and faqs for more information on what you need to bring to our first meeting to lodge the Notice.

It's a good idea to book your celebrant well in advance, to ensure that you can get married on the date you want. Certain dates and times of the year are very busy for weddings so you may need to start organising your wedding service providers early.

On your wedding day, I arrive well before your ceremony and will help to welcome and assemble your guests and the wedding party, guide you through the ceremony and signing of certificates and then present you to your guests as newlyweds. My role as celebrant is then finished and, after congratulations and photographs, you will be celebrating your good fortune with family and friends.
