Ceremonies

While I am currently based in Geelong, I am willing to travel to make your day special. Love knows no boundaries! 

WEDDING CEREMONY

Your wedding day is about you, that’s why it needs to be unique and personalised to the couple you are!

Many people think a wedding ceremony is just the formalities where you “sign a piece of paper”  and the reception is the party but they are wrong. Your ceremony is the party where you kick off the celebrations. I mean there wouldn’t be a party without you both and your ceremony, so let’s show them and change their minds about weddings!

If you choose to have all the bells and whistles, I will:

• Arrange a meeting either online, over a coffee, or at your favourite bar to sign the paperwork as well as provide the opportunity for me to hear EVERYTHING about you both and your ideal wedding day.
• Write a personalised, fun and unique ceremony full of love, laughter, and sentiment reflecting you as a couple.
• If requested, support to write your vows, provide ideas for the music that can be used, and sample readings
• Ensure you get all the correspondence you need to feel confident the ceremony script is just how you want it and that you are feeling confident and comfortable in the lead-up
• With enough notice and as requested by you, attend the wedding rehearsal (or somewhere nearby or online) and provide some tips and tricks to make you feel comfortable and ready for your big day
• Submit all necessary documentation after the wedding to ensure you’re legally married
• Apply to BDM and pay for your Official Certificate of Marriage to be sent to you via post
• Bring along my Bose PA system, including a microphone and AUX Cord that can be used for music during the ceremony if desired
• Arrive one hour before your ceremony to assist your guests to find their seats and get ready to celebrate the two of you
• Travel up to 90 minutes from Geelong although I am happy to travel further. We can have a chat about travel fees beforehand.
• Most of all, provide a memorable and fun ceremony full of love, laughter, and joy!

From $1200 however, as every ceremony is so unique, different, and personalised to you, this can vary. The best thing to do is get in touch and let’s chat!

SIDEKICK CELEBRANT

Are you wanting your best friend or a family member to be the one to perform your ceremony? I love this idea!

If you choose to have me as your Celebrant sidekick, I will:

• Arrange a meeting with you and the special person chosen to marry you either online, over a coffee, or at your favourite bar to go over the details for your ceremony
• I will meet with you to sign the paperwork and ensure that this is all lodged to ensure your marriage is legal
• Provide support to your “celebrant” to write a personalised, fun and unique ceremony full of love, laughter, and sentiment reflecting you as a couple.
• If requested, support to write your vows, provide ideas for the music that can be used, and sample readings
• Ensure you get all the correspondence you need to feel confident the ceremony script is just how you want it and that you are feeling confident and comfortable in the lead-up
• With enough notice and as requested by you, attend the wedding rehearsal (or somewhere nearby or online) and provide some tips and tricks to make you feel comfortable and ready for your big day
• Submit all necessary documentation after the wedding to ensure you’re legally married
• Apply to BDM and pay for your Official Certificate of Marriage to be sent to you via post
• Bring along my Bose PA system, including a microphone and AUX Cord that can be used for music during the ceremony if desired
• Arrive one hour before your ceremony to assist your guests to find their seats and get ready to celebrate the two of you
• Travel up to 90 minutes from Geelong although I am happy to travel further. We can have a chat about travel fees beforehand.
• Most of all, provide a memorable and fun ceremony full of love, laughter, and joy!

MICRO AND SMALLER WEDDINGS

This option allows couples to get married in a smaller setting but with all the love and BIG feels.  It is the perfect option for those couples who want their special day to be shared with up to 20 or your favourite people perhaps in your backyard toasting to you both with glasses of prosecco or in the local Botanical Gardens!

Choosing to have a “smaller wedding” is just as much of a celebration and party as a ceremony with all the bells and whistles. The ceremony is a recognition of love and commitment that a couple chooses to make through marriage, a moment to be shared with your nearest and dearest.

If you choose to have a smaller ceremony that still packs the love punch, I will:

• Arrange a meeting either online, over a coffee, or at your favourite bar at least 31 days before the ceremony to ensure the paperwork is signed. It will also provide me with the opportunity to hear EVERYTHING about you both and your ideal wedding day.
• Use my Bose PA system, including a microphone and AUX Cord that can be used for the ceremony if desired
• Write a personalised ceremony
• Submit all required documentation
• Provide you with a copy of the presentation Wedding Certificate
•  Apply to BDM and pay for your Official Certificate of Marriage to be sent to you via post

The price of this smaller wedding ceremony starts from $1000 but is dependent on how detailed you would like your ceremony, the day of the week, where it’s being held and how many guests are attending. Get in touch and we can have a chat and get you guys married because love comes in all shapes and sizes!

LEGALS ONLY AND ELOPEMENTS

This is the pick for those of you who are not one for the “fluff” or being the “centre of attention” on the wedding day and just want to say “I do” and make it legal. This is your “registry office style” but so much more unique and flexible. A beautiful and memorable moment shared in front of myself and two witnesses, we sign the paperwork before you head to your favourite restaurant, bar or “surprise party” to celebrate with some bubbles and your special people. Maybe you tied the knot overseas or you’re planning to elope abroad and you need to make it official here in Australia, then this is the option for you!

If you choose this ceremony package, I will:

• Meet with you atleast 31 days before your chosen date to get married to ensure the paperwork is completed in time
• Provide a short ceremony with the legal requirements
• Submit all required documentation
• Provide a copy of the presentation Wedding Certificate
• Apply to BDM and pay for your Offical Certificate of Marriage to be sent to you in the post

A Legal only ceremony starts from $700
