Ready to make it official? Here’s what you need to know:

First things first, get in touch! We'll have a relaxed chat about the type of ceremony you're dreaming of and check if I’m available on your special date. Then, we meet up to see if we’re the right fit for each other, think of it as a celebrant first date. If you are looking to book me:

• Read my Service Agreement so you know exactly what I promise to deliver.
• Once you’re ready to lock it in, I’ll send you the Booking Form and The Notice of Intended Marriage application to complete.

• We meet to complete or sign the Notice of Intended Marriage and start the initial planning  and getting to you your love story.
• I’ll suggest ideas for each part of the ceremony, whether you're after something heartfelt, hilarious, modern with a twist, I tune in to your style and vibe, bringing my professionalism, creativity, and calm energy to make the whole process feel exciting and stress-free.
• I send you the Ceremony Planning Questionnaire and the couple's questionnaire, Get-To-Know-You.
• I'm all set to create a ceremony that’s personal, meaningful, and totally you.
• Then it all about collaboration, meet up or online for the planning (depending on the package,  I like to finalise the script 1 month before the wedding day or earlier.
• We do a online run through or a rehearsal.

You’ll end up with a ceremony that feels just right, one your guests will remember. I've got you!

What legal paperwork do I need know about? 

There are 3 legal documents we need to complete. Firstly, the  Notice of Intended Marriage needs to be filled out and received by your Celebrant at least 30 days to 18 months prior to your marriage. Either one of us can supply this form.

Just before your wedding, mostly likely at the rehearsal, we need to complete the Declaration of No Legal Impediment to Marriage. This is declaring you are legally allowed to get married, according to law in Australia and you don't have a spouse hidden in another part of the world. I'll provide this form.

During your ceremony there are 3 official documents. One copy is yours, the second copy is mine and the third Copy goes to Births, Deaths and Marriages. After the wedding I lodge your documents with Births Deaths and Marriages to register your marriage within 48 hours, and about a week later, you receive your official Marriage Certificate. Go and book your first dinner reservation as Mr & Mrs/ Mr & Mr/Ms & Ms.

What documents do we need?

I need to see your photo ID, either Passport or Drivers License. Your Passport will also show proof of your date and place of birth too. If showing me your Drivers License, bring your registered Birth Certificate for proof of date and place of birth and also handy to check parents names. If you have been previously married you will need to provide evidence of how your last marriage legally end. You will need to provide a death certificate or certificate of divorce, decree absolute or nullity.

Do you travel?

I love nothing better. I live in Wollongong and travel around the Illawarra, the Southern Highlands, South Coast NSW and surrounding areas. If I need to travel outside the kilometre radius stated for each ceremony, I charge an extra fee. I'm a regular visitor to Jindabyne throughout the year and I'm more than happy to be booked as your Celebrant during summer, autumn, winter. I'm happy to negotiate a price to travel and connect your ceremony into a short holiday with family and friends.

What are your terms and conditions?

I have a Service Agreement to view here. It will cover such things as my refund policy, late fees, alternative arrangements if I lose my voice or suddenly unavailable, requirements, equipment supplied, insurance coverage and more. Make sure you understand all the terms and conditions before going ahead with your booking.

What will you be wearing?

Well that all depends on the style of your wedding. I check in with you on the colour palette and go from there. From formal to floral, neutral solid colours to glittery ball gown to tuxedo wearing stilt-walker, I love to dress for the occasion. Sometimes couples scroll through my instagram, and select from there :))
