OVERVIEW
In 1982 following the honour of being accepted as a Celebrant, its path took me on the joyful journey I have traversed since then. My clients have been many and varied, and they have all taught me so much through the diversity of their needs, cultures, personalities and experiences.
Humour, empathy, versatility and flexibility are all components necessary to create a wedding that is perfect for each couple and their unique needs when two individuals and their families merge in a ceremony that creates happy memories for all.
Confidentiality and discretion are vital, also sensitivity to what is going to work best for the couple during their ceremony, and minimising fears and apprehensions . I encourage couples to consider all location factors, time of day, tide times, shade availability and provide a complete run through of how the ceremony will go, including factors such as those needed by the photographer, and other key players.
My goal is for the couple to feel confident on the day that everything will go as planned, and they know what to expect from themselves, my celebrant role, and others involved.
Through this journey, I will help you celebrate in the way you dream of.

Ensure the celebrant knows exactly how you plan your surprise wedding to go. Is it being disguised as another sort of celebration?e.g. engagement party, birthday party; do the other guests know the celebrant is a celebrant? Sometimes people put two and two together if the intendended celebrant isn't a close friend, and would have no reason to be there. Would they normally come with their partner if they were invited to another celebration? If the celebrant can turn up at the last moment before the wedding, then usually the surprise works, or make sure if the celebrant has to be there earlier, that any paperwork is effectively hidden until the appropriate moment. Hope this is useful, have managed a few successfully, all with different techniques.
