  • Contact me to arrange an obligation-free chat, or go ahead and book straight in.

    Pay a $200 deposit and sign the contract to secure your date in my calendar (this will be deducted from your total fee).
    Once that’s done, your date is locked in!

  • We’ll meet to start planning your perfect ceremony. I’ll ask the right questions to understand what your ideal day looks like and to learn your story.

    We’ll also complete the Notice of Intended Marriage form and cover some of the legal requirements. This form must be lodged at least one month before your ceremony.

    At this meeting, I’ll also need to sight some identification documents:

    1. Birth Certificate or Passport (originals)

    2. Driver’s Licence or Proof of Age Card

    3. Proof of address (such as a rates notice or water bill)

    *If you’ve been previously married, please bring evidence of the end of that marriage (Divorce Order or Death Certificate).

    If you don’t have the documents listed above, [see here for more options], or call me to discuss.

  • Then I’ll go away and work my magic, creating a ceremony that reflects your vision.

    You’ll have access to my detailed Ceremony Planning Guide, where you can customise your ceremony from start to finish.
    Or, if you prefer a more hands-off approach, I can craft a beautiful ceremony for you based on what I’ve learned.

    Complete your Ceremony Questionnaire so I have all the little details just right.

    Write your personal vows with the help of my How to Vow guide, plus extra support or a call if needed.

    Finally, you’ll review a draft of your ceremony to make sure you love every bit.

  • In the week before the ceremony, we’ll have a Zoom or phone call to go over all the little details so you can arrive on the day feeling relaxed and ready to enjoy your ceremony.

    *On locations rehearsals can be added for an additional fee

  • I’ll be there to guide you through every step of the ceremony, so you can relax knowing the focus is on celebrating your love and creating a heartfelt experience for you and your guests.

    Afterwards, while you head off to celebrate, I’ll take care of lodging your paperwork and ensuring all the legal requirements are completed.

    You’ll also receive access to my Name Change Guide & Checklist.

    Congratulations, Newlyweds!
