About

It’s no secret, I love my work. But for me, it’s about the real satisfaction that comes from working with clients to achieve their dreams. I think everyone has a mission in life and mine’s easy, if you believe in what you do, which in my case is helping people make their dreams come true, great things will happen. For me, being a celebrant is an ongoing journey, touching so many lives and helping others realize their dreams. I’m happy to have been sharing this journey with so many others.

FAQ

WHAT DO YOU CHARGE AND WHAT DO WE GET FOR OUR MONEY?

A lot of celebrants will tell you there are no fixed prices as each wedding is unique; a “ballpark” figure for a ceremony ranges from $600 to $1500. With the average around $850 plus any extras you might want, such as doves, wine, balloons, etc.

I on the other hand will send you to my webpage which describes all three types of weddings, all of which are tailored to you, and outlines the costs which start at $295.00

WE WANT TO GET MARRIED, WHERE DO WE START?

I offer an obligation-free consultation for prospective clients. This gives you a chance to meet me in

person and talk through your ideas. I will also explain the legalities involved.

If you decide to go ahead with me, I will ask you for a non-refundable booking fee of $250 to confirm

your booking. This fee is part of the total price and not an extra. I will then start the paperwork process

by filling out a “Notice Of Intended Mariage” This can be done “on the spot” using my portable office system.

WHAT'S NOT INCLUDED

• Any travel beyond the greater Melbourne Metro area, this includes car, train, or flight, please ask for a quote as there may also be accommodation charges; (Travel to RACV Goldfields Resort for the ceremony is free). (Travel by car with a return trip of over 100kms is charged at 75c per km).

• Any extras provided by any third party including photographers, entertainment (Music & MC).

• Any permit applications and fees or venue costs and charges.

• Any extra paperwork supplied by a third party and ordered by me at your request.

• This is NOT an exhaustive list, if you have any questions please call.

We had the pleasure of having Steve King as our celebrant, and he truly made our day special. His warm and engaging manner set a wonderful tone for our ceremony. Steve's attention to detail, he is very organised and experienced in the entire process so it made what could be a complex process into a seamless experience with all the planning and signing that needs to happen. He was supportive throughout the process, making us feel at ease even during our most nervous moments. Thank you, Steve, for helping make our wedding day unforgettable!

Danial & Kayla, what made your wedding so special was its intimacy and serenity, with just the five of us, in a secluded rooftop oasis, it was the perfect setting for such a lovely couple. I was just honored that I could help make it happen for you guys.

He was professional from the first phone call we met to Steve. Throughout the entire planning he kept us informed. Steve managed to maintain both myself and my husband quite calm despite having to prepare a wedding on short notice. On the day, Steve was hospitable and had the guests laughing and having a great day. We have been very lucky to have Steve marry us and would reccommend him in any marriage. Thank you Steve so much. Damon and Chris

We had a wedding in Nov having Steve as both the celebrant and MC. Steve has helped all the paper work leaving us worry free. Steve has been very considerate in all aspects and tailored the ceremony and reception based on our personality and preferences. Especially few weeks before the wedding when our stress level was the highest, Steve helped a lot in coordinating with venues and other vendors , also helped making our slideshow looking nice in reception . Strongly recommend couples to choose Steve to host the weddings

Shush, that was our little secret, no one was supposed to know about the slide show, hehehehehe :) - Besides which, that was more your handiwork than mine. No seriously, it was my pleasure to be able to help in any way that I could for such a wonderful couple. Wishing you both a long life and lots of happiness.

Can I withdraw NOIM form?

Can I withdraw the NOIM form if I don’t want to get married anymore? Will all my personal details and information already be entered and saved into government portal after I lodged the NOIM form with the celebrant? How can I get them removed?

Steve King - Celebrant

As far as I'm aware, you should be able to ask your celebrant to ring BDM, explain the wedding has been canceled, and remove the record from the system.

When's the best time to ask your wedding party to be in your wedding party?

Steve King - Celebrant

Oh, now that's a good question, while it's exciting to start planning your wedding right after getting engaged, it's best to wait for just a little while (but not too long) before asking your wedding party to be a part of your special day. Plan your wedding first.

If you're planning a destination wedding or require your wedding party to wear specific attire, it's imperative to give them plenty of notice so they can make travel arrangements and order their attire.

It's crucial to give them plenty of notice, so they have time to plan accordingly. Asking someone to be in your wedding party is a big deal, and it's essential to do it with the right kind of energy and enthusiasm. Remember, your wedding party is there to celebrate your love and make your day special, so it's essential to ask them with love, respect, and enthusiasm.

Is there anyway possible to get married without witnesses

Can you be married without witnesses in the same room. As I have anxiety issues and I don't do very well around other people.

Steve King - Celebrant

It would be nice to be able to help you with your anxiety issues, and I guess if you ask someone close to you who understands you, it might help, but the Marriage Act does state that two people over the age of 18 MUST witness the ceremony and sign a legal document as proof.
