About

Originally from England, I moved to Australia in 2012 and have called the beautiful South Coast of NSW home ever since. I became a life celebrant in November 2023, bringing warmth, inclusivity, and authenticity to each ceremony I craft. Whether you’re envisioning a beach, bush, or garden setting, I’m here to help make your day unforgettable. With a romantic, light-hearted approach, I work closely with couples to create ceremonies that feel genuine and true to their unique love story.

FAQ

What types of ceremonies do you offer?

Pretty much anything goes. I love the romance of a traditional wedding, and the fun of a themed ceremony. I specialise in weddings, vow renewals, commitment ceremonies, and other life celebrations on the beautiful South Coast, but am happy to travel to other areas.

How far in advance should we book you as our celebrant?

I recommend booking as soon as you’ve set your date and location to ensure availability, especially during peak wedding seasons. However, I always do my best to accommodate couples whenever possible, even on shorter notice. Booking early also gives us plenty of time to personalise your ceremony and make sure every detail is exactly as you envision.

How do we start planning our ceremony?

We begin with a relaxed chat to get to know you as a couple. From there, I guide you through each step, including writing vows and personalising your ceremony.

How long does a ceremony usually take?

A typical ceremony can last anywhere between about 20 minutes to an hour, though I tailor the length to suit your vision and preferences.

What should we expect from the first meeting with you?

Our first meeting, whether by voice/video call, or in person, is typically a casual, no-obligation meeting where you can get to know me and discuss your wedding plans. We will talk over the legal requirements and how to prepare a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM). We will talk about my fees, inclusions and policies, and you will have the opportunity to ask questions and address any concerns about your day.
