FAQ

What should I look for in a Celebrant?

With such a large number of Celebrants now registered to perform legal ceremonies, couples are spoilt for choice, although this can be quite overwhelming.

Whilst cost is important for budgets, getting married is one of the most important days of your life, so it makes sense to choose a Celebrant that you feel most comfortable with to help you make one of life’s most important promises.

Your Celebrant should be able to understand your feelings and ideas of love and communicate them well. This can make all the difference to your special day. A Celebrant is, after all THE most important part of your Wedding Day, yet usually the lease expensive of all your wedding suppliers.

I believe the most important credentials of an Authorised Marriage Celebrant are Professionalism; Experienced; Good reputation; Reliable and trustworthy; Accessible and approachable; Well respected and highly regarded as well as Welcoming and accommodating

So where do you start?

The first step is perhaps to search for Celebrants in your area and have a good look through their website. What do they include in their ceremony packages? Are they easily contactable? Do they present well and suit your wedding style?

It’s also a great idea to take the time to read through half a dozen Testimonials/Reviews to see what other couples have said and how have they rated their experience.

The next step is to contact the celebrant and arrange a face-to-face, no obligation meeting. This is an opportunity to meet and greet, for your Celebrant to find out all about you and to make sure you feel totally comfortable with your choice. It’s important that you are able to relate and communicate well together.

Once you have made this important decision, your Celebrant will guide you through the ceremony process by providing a thorough explanation of the legal paperwork and what is required of you.

Will I be given a choice as to what my Celebrant wears?

It is always a great idea for a Celebrant to compliment your wedding colour theme, rather than stand out and be the focal point.

I have put together 'Wedding Wardrobe' and allow my couples to choose what they would like me to wear and they absolutely love it! :)

Natasha is quite simply, the best. From the very moment we saw her, we knew instantly that we wanted her to marry us! Her vibrant personality and bubbly disposition radiated through the expo hall where we first saw her. She is everything you could possibly want in a celebrant and MC (and content creator! What can’t this woman do?!), and then some. For context, I am somebody who has quite high expectations of those around me and who likes to have things a particular way. Natasha not only met, but exceeded our expectations time and time again. She is an exceptionally hard worker, adaptable, organized and thoughtful. She is extraordinary at what she does and brings a flawless blend of professionalism and fun to the table. Natasha has the gift of making you feel like a lifelong friend no matter how long you’ve known her, and can command a space in a way that makes everybody feel at home. She is there for you every step of the way, and will guide you through assisting her to build the most perfect personalized ceremony (and reception). A fantastic problem-solver too, nothing ever seems too much for Natasha. Her connections, expertise and beautiful nature make choosing her for your next event a must! Natasha was born to be in this industry. Need a celebrant, and/or MC? Trust me (and the 100s of other 5 star reviews – I mean come on, what more do you need? This many people can’t be wrong!), if you want your day to be absolutely perfect, don’t hesitate to choose Natasha.

Thank you again for your trust and kindness! 💖 xx

From the moment we met Natasha, we knew she was the perfect choice to officiate our wedding. Her warmth and genuine enthusiasm made us feel immediately at ease, and her passion for what she does shone through in every conversation we had leading up to our big day. Natasha took the time to truly understand our love story, weaving it beautifully into the ceremony. She helped us personalise our vows and offered invaluable advice on how to make the day reflect our unique relationship. The way she spoke about love and commitment resonated deeply with us and our guests, creating an atmosphere filled with joy and emotion. On the day of the wedding, Natasha was a true professional. Her calming presence helped alleviate our nerves, and her organized approach ensured that everything ran smoothly. She seamlessly guided us through the ceremony, keeping everyone engaged and connected. The heartfelt moments she facilitated, from the readings to the vows, were some of the highlights of the day, leaving everyone in attendance teary-eyed and filled with love. What truly stood out was her ability to connect with our guests. Natasha created an inclusive atmosphere that made everyone feel involved and cherished. Many of our friends and family commented on how they felt a special connection to the ceremony, and we know that’s thanks to her genuine spirit and warmth. Natasha, thank you for making our wedding not just a celebration, but a meaningful and unforgettable experience. We are so grateful for your guidance, support, and the beautiful memories you helped create. We can’t recommend you highly enough to any couple looking for a celebrant who will pour their heart into every moment. You are truly one of a kind!

Natasha is so lovely and professional, she makes creating a your dream ceremony so easy and is happy to include our exclude whatever you want. She has fantastic resources and suggestions and clearly cares about delivering the perfect ceremony. Her process not only meant we had the perfect ceremony but that we had valuable time as a couple answering her questionnaire and discussing what we want to include. She handled all the ceremony and pre ceremony music perfectly, wore colors to match our theme and moves out of frame for all the important shots. She also handled our cocktail reception and made sure of guests knew where things were and what the plan was as well as keeping the day perfectly on track. Our day would not have been anywhere near as smooth or perfect without her there to guide us.

Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness! Warm regards, Natasha xx

Tash has been a true gem and crucial puzzle piece to our wedding day. From the very first meeting, she has shown just how passionate she is in helping couples in achieving their dream wedding day. She was professional in her approach, and made sure to update us every step along the way. Being a 'worrier', I appreciated the way she was so approachable and contactable, answering our questions up until the last moment. Tash's calm demeanour really helped us relax and enjoy our big day. We can't thank her enough for making our day an absolute dream! Thank you so much, Tash!

We chose Natasha based on her raving reviews & look of genuine warmth and joy evident in all her photos, and she exceeded everything we had seen. Even with not having met her in person until the day before the wedding, she made us feel so comfortable and seemed so genuinely interested in us as a couple. Natasha went above and beyond to prepare us for our wedding day, with an extensive amount of resources and advice, all very clearly set out for us to go through. Natasha provided constant communication to us throughout the process and was always very responsive to us. The ceremony Natasha created was so personal, perfectly suited to our sense of humor and exactly what we had hoped for. She was very organised, and whilst being so cheerful & personable, also ensured all formalities/legalities were taken care of. Many of our guests complimented the ceremony, which (apart from our personal vows) can only be accredited to Natasha. Would highly recommend!

Your ceremony was a joy to create, and I’m so happy your guests enjoyed it too! Wishing you both all the love and happiness as you embark on this next chapter of your lives. Warmest wishes x

Can the celebrant refer to us as husband and wife in a commitment ceremony?

In a commitment ceremony is the celebrant allowed to say husband and wife?

Hills Celebrant Services

The Marriage Celebrant Guidelines state that to avoid doubt, celebrants must avoid using the words ‘wedding’ or ‘marriage’ to describe the ceremony. Whilst the Guidelines do not specifically mention that "Husband" and "Wife" cannot be used, they do of course pertain to a "marriage".

A commitment ceremony could incorporate important rituals and provide photographic records; however, it has to be publicly made clear to everyone present that the ceremony is not a marriage.

Celebrants may conduct commitment ceremonies for a couple. These are "not" marriages and the commitment ceremony must not purport to be a marriage.

As a commitment ceremony is not considered a legal marriage, the celebrant must not prepare or submit any paperwork (such as the NOIM and declarations as to conjugal status). Witnesses are not required for a commitment ceremony. A certificate of marriage, or any other certificate referring to the Marriage Act, must not be prepared for a commitment ceremony.

Celebrants should deliver an appropriate introduction at the beginning of the ceremony making it clear to the guests that the ceremony is not a marriage ceremony and that if applicable the marriage has already occurred or is due to occur at a later date.

What does a marriage celebrant have to say?

What are the legal requirements?

Hills Celebrant Services

To ensure the validity of your marriage, an Authorised Celebrant is required to say the Legal Monitum (what marriage is according to law). You must say legal vows (4 lines in total), usually read as a 'repeat after me'. These are the words that "legally" make you married and then the signing of the Marriage Certificates with 2 legal witnesses formalises it all. Feel free to get in contact if you would like to know the exact words. I wish you all the best with your planning.

How can I help my celebrant to provide a personal and fun service?

What's the best way for me to help my celebrant to provide a personal and fun service?

Hills Celebrant Services

I believe the best way for a Celebrant to create a personal and fun ceremony, is for you to give them as much information about you and your relationship. You could help them by answering questions like: - How and when you met; and the proposal? - What you liked about each other when you first met? - When did you decide that you wanted to be together forever? - What were the good things that helped you decide? - What does marriage mean to you? - What you each (individually) love about each other? - What leisure, sports and/or interests you enjoy together? - What does family mean to you? - What your hopes and dreams are for the future? - Anything else you think is relevant, especially if you have any children. What they mean to you and how they have changed your relationship. Getting to know my couples better, certainly helps me to create personalised and fun ceremonies.
