OVERVIEW

It's your wedding - let's do it YOUR way. Let's capture those feels and make it something special. I can advise you of any legal requirements and tailor-make your ceremony to reflect you.

Making something that's exactly right is a process! I will meet with you as often as we need to make sure your ceremony flows as you want it to.

I am based in Templestowe (right by our beautiful river) and am close to the Yarra Valley and the Mornington Peninsula. I can travel - I am available for your ceremony statewide.

A dedicated foodie, animal lover and artist - I light up when I have a chance to create something new! I have a background in disability services, learning to think on my feet with some remarkable individuals. As an interest, I have also worked in catering (sharing my love of good cooking and great food). I embrace new projects - when my kids were small I studied computer systems and designed web services for small business. I have studied singing and love to capture my world on paper!

With Sally, nothing is too hard. I can't rate her highly enough. She was the only celebrant I contacted but within minutes I knew I had the right person. She made everything very easy for us. Our minds were at ease knowing she would make everything fall perfectly into place. Sally has such a big heart and will go above & beyond to make your day completely stress free. Also very willing to work with your schedule and come to you. She will go above and beyond. I highly, highly recommend Sally!

From the outset, Sally was an engaging and welcoming individual and her professionalism and easy-going nature were clearly evident. She came across as a celebrant who understood the meaning of, and in, words and we immediately knew she would be the perfect celebrant to tell our love story.

Sally was absolutely amazing, she went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect and she really symbolized our family. We had alot of comments on the day and after just how unique and beautiful our Ceremony was. Sally has a fantastic personality, very friendly, funny and easy to get along with and talk to. Sally really listen to what we wanted and made that her number one priority and you could tell on the day as it just shone!

is there an extra charge to have a rehearsal?

Sally Howard Civil Celebrant

No way! I wouldn't feel comfortable going into your ceremony without a run through and the knowledge the everyone is happy with their roles. Your rehehearsal is a part of the whole package! It's also a great time to get together and really see what's going to happen on your day..... we see things in a different light.... sometimes magic happens

how can we make a mention of same-sex couples and marriage equality in our civil ceremony?

we're not gay ourselves, but our dear friends are and we were wondering if celebrants would be open to making a special mention of it during our ceremony

Sally Howard Civil Celebrant

Making mention of your own personal beliefs wth regard to marriage equality is simple to do and most celebrants will include them within a ceremony. It can be as simple as inserting a few words after the Monitum, such as:

"However, (your names) would like to express that they believe the right to get married should be determined by love, not by a person’s gender or sexual orientation, and that they look forward to the day when this is also reflected in the law."

We can get as creative as you like!

Can I request my celebrant to wear a certain colour or outfit?

I've seen some awful clashing outfits and celebrants in white etc... is it rude to ask them to wear a particular colour or style? I don't know if I'm taking it way too far haha. But I want everything to look good! It is my wedding day, after all :)

Sally Howard Civil Celebrant

Of course you can ask! I always make sure I blend nicely with the bridal party (complementing rather than appearing to be a part of it) and would NEVER wear white! I want people focussing on YOU. If you have certain ideas about how you'd like me to appear then hit me with them! It's YOUR day...... remember that!
