FAQs

There are no silly questions. I don't expect you to know all the answers... that's what I'm here for. 

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK?

The earlier the better! Some dates are booked out 18 months in advance. To ensure our diaries sync up, get in touch early.

HOW DO I WRITE MY VOWS?

When it comes to your vows it’s common to be completely stumped and not know where to start. Here's a handy guide to help you out!

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU'RE SICK ON THE DAY?

Even though I'm a sole trader, I'm part of a fantastic community of celebrants who want you to have your dream day. I'll always find someone to step in if the worst happens.

WHAT PAPERWORK DO WE NEED TO FILL?

To get the ball rolling you'll need to complete a Notice of Intended Marriage and just before the wedding you'll sign your Declaration of No Legal Impediment to Marriage, plus your certificates in the ceremony.

Don't worry, I've got it sorted!

DO WE HAVE TO ORGANISE A PA SYSTEM?

Not at all! I have you covered with my new Bose S! Pro+. 

WHAT DO YOU WEAR ON THE DAY?

I will always try and fit in with your colour scheme and not stand out. You can see my style on Instagram.

WHAT ID DO WE NEED TO PROVIDE?

To complete the Notice of Intended Marriage we need to see photo ID and proof of place of birth. Your passport is a go-to but a birth certificate and licence is great too. 

DO YOU OFFER MC SERVICES?

Hell yeah I do! I love carrying the party on with you and connecting the ceremony and reception as MC and wedding hype girl. Read the benefits of a professional MC here.

HOW DO I CHANGE MY NAME AFTER WE'RE MARRIED?

Changing your surname after marriage can feel like one more step in the wedding whirlwind, but don’t worry—I’ve got your back! Read all about it here.

DO WE NEED A REHEARSAL?

It's up to you! A rehearsal can help calm nerves and everyone knows the plan. If this is something you feel will help, let's chat.

WE DON'T LIVE IN VIC, CAN YOU STILL MARRY US?

Part of what I love most about my job is that I get to travel far and wide for love. I can marry you anywhere in Australia. Let's chat about travel arrangements. 

HOW MANY TIMES DO WE MEET BEFORE THE WEDDING?

We can catch up on a virtual call or - my fave - in person. Once you've booked in, we'll need to complete the paperwork and prior to the ceremony we'll meet to run through the logistics (potentially a rehearsal too if you need) and of course, I see you on the big day! 

Convinced I'm the celebrant for you?

I am grateful to live, love and work on the lands of the Wurundjeri Peoples and I pay my respects to Indigenous Elders past, present and emerging. Sovereignty has never been ceded. It always was and always will be, Aboriginal land.
