OVERVIEW
Family is our most important social unit and I believe marriage is the foundation for this. Marriage shows a binding commitment and should be recognised with a special ceremony. You show your family and friends that you not only love each other but you plan to spend the rest of your lives together.
I am a history teacher and became a marriage celebrant because two of my friends and work colleagues wanted someone they knew to marry them. A high point of the wedding ceremony was the story I was able to create about the couple which I tried to make as humorous as possible. Maybe the kissing of the Blarney stone during a holiday to Ireland had something to do with this!
I will provide you with a ceremony that suits your tastes and lifestyle. My job is to guide you through the process. I take care of all the legal matters and I can help with your order of ceremony, your vows, rituals, and poetry, readings and songs.
You can call or email me for a no-obligation inquiry. I would be honoured to help you create your special day.
My most recent adventure was at Krispy Kreme Doughnuts at Liverpool where I officiated at 3 drive- through ceremonies on 14/2/2023 St Valentine's Day. The first was a wedding, televised live on Channel 7's Sunrise and also 2 vow renewals.
About
In May 2016 I completed my training to become a marriage celebrant. This followed from a request by two colleagues ( on of whom was also and ex-student) that they wanted someone they knew well to officiate at their marriage. I am also an experienced Head Teacher - HSIE with a demonstrated history of working in the education management industry. Skilled in Years 7-12 History and English education, literacy, staff development, educational leadership, and classroom management.

Wondering if there are surcharges for special dates like this.
Crowley The Celebrant
Depends on the celebrant. I wouldn't charge extra.
What is the maximum number of witnesses for a wedding
Hi everyone! My fiance and I are French from birth but are now both recently Australian citizens. In countries like France or the UK you can have up to 6 witnesses (aged over 18 years old obviously) to be witnesses at your wedding. We were wondering if 2 is the max here in Western Australia or if it is the minimum number. If 2 is the minimum for the number of witnesses what would be the maximum number?
Crowley The Celebrant
In Australia the marriage paperwork only allows for TWO witnesses.
Would like a family friend to conduct our ceremony how do we do this?
Crowley The Celebrant
I have done a wedding where a family friend ( and ex-celebrant) conducted much of the ceremony. I dealt with all the legal paperwork and performed the aspects of the ceremony that ensured legal requirements were met.
