HEART, SOUL & A DASH OF ROCK N ROLL 

  MELBOURNE CELEBRANT CRAFTING AWESOME CEREMONIES WITH A WHOLE LOTTA LOVE

GENUINE CELEBRATIONS full of laughs and good vibes. 

24 minutes of awesome.

Click the vid below for hard evidence.

Your celebrant holds the entire vibe of your wedding day in the palm of their hand. Are you willing to gamble on an average choice?

My style is relaxed, natural and fun. Stiff, formal, overly traditional weddings aren’t really my thing. I take guests on a little tour of emotions- make them laugh, hit them in the heart and finish on a high. YOU’RE MARRIED!

Outside of celebranting, I'm a seasoned traveller, love good tunes and I’m a bit of a foodie. Love a red wine, a really good G + T. Always first on the d floor. Love a bit of banter.

I’ve collected a few traits along life’s way that ensure I go alright at the helm:

Creative

I’ll write and deliver you a cracking ceremony that 100% reflects you - guaranteed no cheese. Just a genuine, fun celebration full of feels and humour. No Corinthians, no merging of coloured sands, no dove releases, no bullshit.

connection

I’m a people person and develop real relationships with my couples. If we vibe with each other meetings are enjoyable, your ceremony will hum and I will totally engage and connect with your guests.

Confident

I'm old enough to have had a bit of life experience, yet young enough to still be in the loop, keeping things fresh and relevant.

Capable

After 20 years as a nurse I can pretty much talk to anyone and handle anything. I've got an eye for detail and I’m super organised.

Calm

Not much surprises me or rattles me. I'm thoughtful and empathetic- a natural nurturer. Stressed or nervy about the big day? Get yourself a calm captain at the helm.

THE LINER NOTES (A LITTLE MORE DETAIL)

I’m a full time celebrant but I don’t take on every wedding just for the dollar bucks. If someone else will fit you guys better, I’ll recommend them.

I do a lot of un-awks recon to get your story and nail your vibe. This helps me put together a cracking ceremony that’s 100% YOU

Upon booking I’ll send you a resource file full of bright ideas.

I’ll work with you and take you into your day calm and prepared.

Tunes and ceremony will be crystal clear thanks to my awesome Bose/ Sennheiser system,

I’ll be at your ceremony early to smooth out nerves and set up.

I’ll ensure all legal paperwork is mickey mouse and lodge it next business day after your gig.

Pricing

My pricing is very competitive, but you get what you pay for. 

If you’re looking for an awesome, memorable, unique ceremony that celebrates you as a couple and connects with your guests, as well as a calm and steady hand to guide you along the way then I’m an absolute bargain.

If you’re looking to compare my services to someone you found on Gumtree, I'm probs not your girl.

GIGS

AVAILABLE FOR A RANGE OF GIGS

I do all sorts of ceremonies, not just weddings. I'm also available for MC gigs, elopements, legals only marriages and funerals.

I’m a big believer in the right of all loving couples to be married, whatever their sexuality.

LEGALS ONLY

Wanna just get hitched without any fuss? My Legals Only package includes a single meeting then 128 legal words on the day and all your paperwork prepped and lodged. Available weekdays in Brunswick. Weekends at my discretion.

FUNERALS

I see funerals as an important responsibility to celebrate, honour, remember and see off a loved one in a personal and respectful manner.

I loved palliative nursing for the satisfaction of knowing I made a difference to a family’s grief experience. I will bring this sensitivity and compassion to funeral ceremonies as well.

vow renewals

Still in love with each other after all these years and want to celebrate it?! Get those old loved up vibes going with a renewal ceremony.

I’ll design a beautifully personalised ceremony honouring the story of your lives since you were married the first time, and your hopes and dreams for the future.

faq

 

Do you write your ceremonies from scratch? 

Every. Single. Time. A) You’re all different. B) I’d be bored out of my skull rolling out the same gaff at every single wedding. I can spend 6-8 hours putting a ceremony together to incorporate everything it needs to make it personally yours.


What ID do I need for the legal paperwork?

You can supply a current passport or your original birth cert and your licence/ photo ID. Passport is the easiest. You’ll also need to provide your Divorce Order if relevant.


Does it matter that I’m a citizen of another country?

Not at all. You can marry in Australia regardless.


Can I organise a marriage with you from overseas?

Yes. I’ll send you a Notice of Intent to Marry and a list of who can witness and sign it with you. This is often consulate staff or a notary public. You can then scan the Notice to me, along with scans of your passports and I’ll lodge it with BDM.


My partner is overseas. Can I lodge the Notice individually?

Yes. I’ll need to chat with your partner via Skype to be happy that they are happy/ understanding/ consenting to the marriage and I can accept a Notice signed by just you until your partner arrives for the wedding. At that time they’ll sign with me as the second party and provide their passport as ID.


Our friend is going to perform our ceremony? Can you do just the legal component for us?

Yes, on occasion I can- at my discretion. Please note I don’t do legals only marriages at peak times on peak days in peak season for obvious reasons. Being that I could be doing a full wedding instead. Legals only enquiries for these times will be quoted full ceremony fee.


Do you have any video of you in action?

Yep. You’ll find one on the home page. Hit Google or Vimeo and you’ll find more vids. How helpful they are totally depends on whether the vibe you’re looking for matches that in the video. I adapt my tone and vibe to suit each individual wedding. If you’re having a big rowdy country wedding and the video shows a small quiet ceremony it may not give a good idea of my scope. If you’re looking to see if I’m a good fit for your wedding, read my reviews and stalk Insta. Way more helpful in my opinion.


What if you’re sick on the day?

I have a network of excellent celebrants of a similar vibe to me I could tap into in this instance. We support each other and work to ensure you still get a great ceremony. I’m fussy about my reserves.


I can’t write for shit. Can you help me with my vows?

Of course! All part of the service. I also provide my couples with a comprehensive resource including a section on writing vows. There are several modern examples in there also to inspire you/rip.


Can we use your P.A for ceremony music?

Yes. If you’re not having live tunes, I usually put music on as soon as I arrive and have it on for 20-30 minutes post ceremony. I will ask you to put together some playlists in Spotify and save them to your phone, which I’ll Bluetooth to my speaker on the day. Once I leave the ceremony however, my P.A comes with me so you’ll need another option.


My friend’s celebrant was only $XXX

My fee reflects the comprehensiveness of my service, as well as my vibe, popularity and experience. I can’t comment on why your friend’s celebrant was only $XXX. I am however, very comfortable with my fee. My reviews demonstrate my value. You will always find someone cheaper but I cannot guarantee the experience you’ll have. Read more about celebrant cost here


Can I pay in instalments?

Yes. I offer payment in 3-4 instalments.


Do we have to have a rehearsal?

Nup. As a standard I do a final run through for my couples at my local bar, often on the Monday before your wedding (before things start getting crazy). This is like a rehearsal with just the three of us.

I run through logistics of the day so you feel totally ready. I also provide a document for your bridal party outlining entry, exit, positioning and other stuff. I go through this with them again on the day when you arrive to the wedding. I will also brief the person controlling music, your photographer and videographer on the day.

If you want a rehearsal at your venue then it will need to occur at a convenient time for me and a fee may apply
