OVERVIEW

I want to work with relaxed couples who like a bit of fun with their romance. They want to create a ceremony full of laughs, a few tears, absolutely no cliches AND a vibe that is all about them. I create ceremonies that reflect who you truly are and deliver them in a way that make your guests wonder how long we've been friends. I ask all the right questions to find out what you want and how you want it to go down. You'll never hear me say the same thing twice unless it's "...and now you may kiss!"

I am reliable, light-hearted, easy going and have a boatload of advice and experience to offer if you want it. You should know - I secretly wish I were Irish and I suddenly start swearing profusely whenever I’m in the company of Canadians!!! This will only be a problem if you're from Canada and getting married on St Paddy's Day.

About

It took me a few false starts before I landed my dream job as a marriage celebrant. I tried to be a teacher but my writing was messy and I still can't do long division. I would have been a lawyer but power suits don't suit me and arguing is not a talent I can claim. I dreamed of being a photographer but actually I really just enjoy gazing at beautiful art. I'm still working on becoming an author, I'll let you know when I hit the big time.

Rachel was fantastic to deal with and so lovely she made us feel completely comfortable with the whole process and on the day was perfect!! So thoughtful and her story about us she told was funny and witty and personal, we are so glad she was a part of our big day.

Rachel was superb at our ceremony, ensuring our sense of humour as a couple was inserted in the proceedings as well as handling all the serious stuff with ease. Prep was excellent, providing cheat sheets for vow writing as well as just generally being available for all those little questions

Rachel was amazing, knowledgeable and great with her communication. Before the ceremony and still to this day, almost three months after the ceremony, she has been there for any questions I have. Rachel really spent the time getting to know us as a couple and the ceremony was a lovely personalised reflection of that. The ceremony was intimate and a true celebration of our love for each other. She had everyone laughing till they cried and yet it was also very sweet and sincere.

Katherine, your wedding was so memorable - for the jokes, the tears, the crazy pinecones and the surprise guest all the way from the US! What a fab day.

If we're getting married in a garden, do we need a undercover plan B for weather reasons?

Two Small Words Weddings and Ceremonies

I think it depends on the season - with summer storms or april showers it might be a good idea and just give you that peace of mind. But it is so much easier these days with the radar and BOM app to predict whether we can risk it. One of the best stormy weddings I did was under a big tree, the rain started just as they kissed and then the photographer got amazing shots of the crowd putting up umbrellas and everyone running for cover. Then we signed the certificates undercover and everyone was laughing and relaxed and the party began.

How does the idea of an unplugged wedding go over with guests?

Do some choose to ignore it?

Two Small Words Weddings and Ceremonies

I think these days guests are pretty understanding. I tell them about the unplugged request before the ceremony starts and use it as an opportunity to introuduce the photographer and just explain that they are a bunch of good looking people and the couple want to see their beautiful faces in their pics instead of a sea of iphones. I sometimes add that the couple just want their loved ones to be in the moment with them and there will be plenty of opportunities after to take pics of the gorgeous couple.
