About

Travel, Photography, Hiking, Triathlon and Trail Running (I’m no where near fast but I really enjoy it) are just a few of my main social interests. Trekking to Everest Base Camp in 2016 was certainly a travel highlight!

FAQ

I have a wireless P.A. system which comes complete with a speaker stand (so that we can position the speaker to the best advantage), a discreet headset which I use and a separate microphone and mic stand which we can position for you to use (if desired, either hand held or on stand) or we can offset this to the side for readings by members of your party.

The P.A. has a CD player and USB port and everything is operated via a wireless remote.

Whilst searching high and low for a celebrant one of our friends recommended A Certain Celebration. At our very first meeting Elaine's genuine patience, generous and warm nature made us 100% sure that, out of the multitude of celebrants we had spoken to, Elaine was the perfect one for us. Over the coming weeks and months, Elaine guided us through the development of our ceremony, including the explanation of all the legal requirements, and provided inspiration for little touches to our ceremony that helped create memories that will last a lifetime. Throughout the process Elaine kept a warm, patient watch over our progress, like a gentle Sheppard leading two slightly befuddled sheep, she made sure that we got all our paper work, vows and other bits and pieces in on time. If you’re looking for a celebrant, both my partner and I highly recommend Elaine. Her patience, humour and creativity alleviated a lot of the stress we would have otherwise encountered (Including decorations for the ceremony, where Elaine made some beautiful flower arrangements and gave us free run of using them during ceremony), we feel Elaine went above and beyond in helping us out. She also has a three legged cat which is pretty cool.

Sue-Ann, it was so lovely being there for you both and I'm so thrilled that you were both happy with how your ceremony unfolded; not just on the day but leading up to it as well. Thank you so much for your wonderful words!! I just love that you mentioned Tully, our cat, and every time I read your last line I can't help laughing in a real happy way because I remember you both meeting him :-) He's a little charmer :-)

Hi Kate

It certainly is :-) The really great thing is that the Celebrant can ensure that your ceremony is quite different to your friend's ceremony too!

cheers
