OVERVIEW

I aim to make your ceremony an unforgettable and happy one that reflects you as a couple!

Your wedding is a very joyous occasion. I consider it an honour to be part of such an important time in a couple's life.

We can work together to create something special on your day! I conduct myself with a great degree of professionalism and integrity. A variety of resources is available - vows, poems, readings and symbolic rituals for you to select. You may wish to have family members or friends involved.

*Three one-hour meetings leading up to the ceremony
*The loan of sample material and ceremonies for you to view at your leisure
*Unlimited access to me to discuss via email or telephone anything related to the ceremony
*A rehearsal close to the wedding date if required.

As well, you can choose to write your own ceremony with guidance as you require.

Dorothy was an absolute delight to deal with. From the very first meeting, Dorothy carefully listened to our desires for our special day and she delivered the most beautiful ceremony. Dorothy's quick wit, clever words and creative suggestions helped make our ceremony just as we wished. We highly recommend Dorothy.

When should I start to think about hiring a Celebrant?

If you have your date in mind, the next on your list should be appointing your celebrant. Getting to know your celebrant takes a little time and communication is paramount in creating a wonderful ceremont. I advise at least 6 months minimum

We have friends that are getting married after us and have invited us, do we need to invite them too?

They're my fiance's friends, I really don't know them very well at all. I haven't spent any time with them and they don't seem important in his life. He hasn't mentioned inviting them, but it seems like the right thing to do. Our wedding is going to be very limited though, about 60 people with half of those being my family. Not sure if we're obligated to invite them or not.

Although you may want to include them, don't feel its necessary or that you are doing the 'right thing' by having them there. Small weddings mean that choices have to be made about who you really want to be part of your day.

How do I deal with my bridezilla bridesmaids

My bridesmaids Comprise of my two cousins , my sister and my friend . My friend has been amazing . But this experience has taught me that my family all have a bit of diva inside them . Initially when searching for bridesmaid dresses every choice I chose was rejected . One wanted to be the centre of attention with a dress , one wasn't happy with a certain cut because it wasn't a cut which flattered her and lastly the other one opposed everything because it didn't meet what they liked or wanted . Finally being happy with my choice of dress which everyone likes I've been showing a few friends , to which my cousin has told me to stop showing them ( I thought it was my wedding ? ) . My sister has now abused me because I've decided to let the makeup artist chose which order she lets everyone have their makeup and hair . I've been told I've lost allegiance to my family , but frankly I'm doing it to save argument and to not be the one who gets the blame . Any tips to dealing with this ???

Whose wedding is it and who is in charge? You need to delegate but still approve of decisions in the end. Try to get clarity around these issues early on.
