I conduct wonderful wedding and baby naming
ceremonies on the NSW Central Coast, in Sydney and in the
Hunter Valley.
Let me help you plan your wedding ceremony
so it all happens just the way you want it, with
all your expectations and aspirations met. I provide a
folder with many thoughts
and selections on vows, readings, ring or other commitments
to assist you in creating a wonderfully unique ceremony.
I also provide an “Order of Service” which
will encompass your ceremony – a very special memento
of your wedding day for you and your guests.
My aim is to make sure that the ceremony expresses your
feelings and intentions in your own distinctive style.
I am committed to providing a professional and personalised
ceremony to make your wedding a very special day.
I live
in Tascott and I am available for a obligation free meeting
to exchange thoughts and ideas for your wedding.
I have been appointed by the Attorney General as a Civil
Marriage Celebrant. I am also a Justice of the Peace.
Your Wedding Day will be one of the most exciting and
emotional days of your life. As a Civil Marriage Celebrant
I would love to help you make it one of the happiest.
I want this part of your wedding to be as stress free
as possible, culminating in a people- friendly ceremony
that is personal, beautiful and dignified.
As your celebrant I will do everything possible to ensure
your ceremony reflects your personalities and chosen wedding
style.
I am based on the Central Coast and perform a variety
of wedding ceremonies on beaches, boats, cliff tops, balconies,
vineyards, farms, in chapels, restaurants, gardens, parks,
private homes, and Wedding venues everywhere.
Whether you are eloping, having a small intimate occasion
or a large grand affair, every couple will receive the
same enthusiastic and caring service.
As a full time professional Celebrant I make myself available seven days
a week.
To assist with your planning I have available a comprehensive
wedding ceremony planner, containing many ideas. I am open
to themes to make your day special, so think outside the
square!
As a Civil Celebrant as well as Weddings, I perform beautiful

How do I believe a wedding should be? Simple -
the three R’s.....
ROMANTIC
A wedding wouldn’t be a wedding without romance. I admit to being
a romantic from way back. I love beautiful words, have written my own poetry
over the years, cry at sad movies, and am moved when I see the bride and
groom together for the first time on their wedding day. I believe that
romance is an integral part of a wedding ceremony, and will make sure that
every ceremony I perform will have an element of romance in it.
REFRESHING
This is how those who have attended, or taken part in my ceremonies, have
often described them to me. I take pride in making sure each and every
one of my ceremonies is written especially for the couple. My ability
to think outside the square combined with my sense of humour, means you
will get a ceremony that is deeply meaningful, yet with an element of
fun mixed in as well.
RELAXED
My motto is "Relax – it’s your wedding day". The
bridal couple have enough things on their mind, without having to worry
about the ceremony as well. My friendly and easy going nature has a calming
influence on even the most nervous couple, and my ability to take charge,
means that they can be sure that everything will run smoothly.

favourite songs, religious readings can be included. Wide

I am a registered civil marriage celebrant and a member of Australian Marriage Celebrants Incorporated, a respected and well-known organisation in the field. My passion is weddings but I also love performing commitment, renewal of vows and naming ceremonies.
Every year I participate in professional training and development, approved by the Attorney General’s Department.
I have lived on the NSW Central Coast for many years and know that its many beaches, headlands and recreation areas make wonderful venues for ceremonies.
I would be honoured to join with you in planning and conducting your ceremony, whether it be religious or non-religious, traditional or alternative, and can provide sample material to guide you. I believe my strengths to be flexibility, creativity and sensitivity. I also have much experience in assisting couples needing to acquire Prospective Marriage Visas.
My fees are quite reasonable and I only charge a little extra if you need for me to provide a pa system for your music, along with a microphone. I am available most days of the week.
If you are interested in using my services, please don't hesitate to phone or email.
It is my wish to make your day special. I offer warm, friendly, professional service to my customers. My promise is to make your wedding day memorable, heartfelt, unique, authentic, sacred and special.
I can provide many different options for you through readings, poems, blessings and rituals. Music can also play a major part in any ceremony, expressing how you feel today and how you will feel together.
Whatever the style of wedding you desire, I will help make your day a wonderful time, so that you will look back in years to come and truly appreciate that it was indeed a Magical Moment.
Marriage is a huge step for anyone and planning your wedding is a busy time.
I have developed my Marriage Celebrancy Service to make it as easy as possible for you to plan your wedding.
I am more than happy to travel to the Hunter Valley, Port Stephens, Sydney and Newcastle.
Another bonus is my sound system. It is battery operated and can be used at any location and music can be played through an ipod system and this service is complimentary.
As a memento of your day, a personalised hand crafted booklet with a copy of the ceremony will be given to you when the ceremony has concluded.
Weddings aren't the only ceremonies I perform. I have my Diploma in Funeral Celebrancy, baby naming, vow renewals and commitment ceremonies .
It starts with a free initial meeting with me, for you to decide if I am the right celebrant for you.
I would be delighted to be your celebrant.
