Sue Warner - Bellarine Celebrant

Just the two of you, two witnesses and me. My Quick and Easy package is costed at $650 in Point Lonsdale, Queenscliff, Ocean Grove or Barwon Heads. Contact me if you'd like it elsewhere and I'll just need to add in some travel.

• an initial meeting to complete the legal paperwork (Notice of Intended Marriage)
• a simple but beautiful ceremony written by me
• prompt lodgement of all paperwork online
• I can even provide two witnesses if it's nearby

To secure the booking a non-refundable booking fee of $325 is required.

Give me a call and we'll make it happen.

I've teamed up with Nicole at King Parrot Cottages and Kirstie-lee from Kirstie-lee Photography to offer a fabulous wedding package for those on a budget and looking for something small, simple AND stunning. 

Escape to the tranquil beauty of King Parrot Cottages and Event Centre, an idyllic micro wedding destination nestled in the heart of nature’s embrace. With its breathtaking landscape, lush greenery, and enchanting ambiance, King Parrot Cottages and Event Centre offers an intimate and magical setting for your dream wedding.

Imagine exchanging your vows beneath towering trees, with a gentle breeze caressing your face and the soothing sounds of birdsong filling the air with an intimate gathering of your closest family and friends.  Don’t just celebrate for a single day, but two nights at a fraction of the price of a large wedding, yet just as special.  

Mid week small wedding package  –  Monday to Thursday up to 14 guests.  (Larger guest packages available) 

• Accommodation and venue hire for two nights (Lodge and Hall). 
• Consultation on ceremony locations, ideas, and suppliers
• Experienced local celebrant recently voted #1 Celebrant for Geelong and Surf Coast - that's me!
• A simple registry-style ceremony 
• All legal paperwork provided and lodged with Victorian BDM
• Resources and assistance for inclusion of personal vows if required 
• Professional photography coverage from Kirstie-lee up to one hour with up to 50 digital images 
• And heaps more.

Head on over to their website for way more details. https://kingparrot.com.au/the-perfect-micro-wedding-destination/ or contact me if you have any queries.

I like to give you a fee that includes ABSOLUTELY everything. For example, there are no hidden travel fees, I include a rehearsal on-site and I include a copy of your Official Marriage Certificate from Births, Deaths & Marriages which is different to the certificates you sign on the day. 

My Bespoke Wedding package includes the following:

• A no-obligation meeting to talk through your ideas for the wedding and to see if I'm the type of celebrant you can connect with. This may be over zoom, skype or face to face.
• Unlimited meetings to complete the legal paperwork and ceremony preparation (it might only take 1 or 2 if we've done the paperwork at our first meeting)
• A fabulous ceremony is written specifically for you two. I've found my niche and love creating a couple's story which I embed within the ceremony. My couples and their guests LOVE this the most.
• I’ve gathered some really cool tools to create unique and fun ceremonies and would love the opportunity to discuss these with you, eg: whisper vows
• Suggestions and advice along the journey
• A full rehearsal at the ceremony location
• All travel in Geelong, Surf Coast and Bellarine region
• My modern BOSE PA system (Bluetooth and wifi) If you’re not having live music, you are welcome to run the music through my PA.
• My Wedding Kit - this comprises a questionnaire, a worksheet that helps you narrow down exactly what you want in your ceremony (or don't want, lol), heaps of options for vows, ring exchange, rituals and readings should you wish to include some. I also have a vows 'cheat sheet' which helps couples write their own vows if they’d like to but are having trouble getting started.
• I'm readily available via SMS, phone, email and skype
• I work one-on-one with each of you if you wish to keep personal vows secret until the ceremony
• Your Official Marriage Certificate (OMC). I apply, on your behalf, when I'm uploading your documents to the Victorian Registry of Births, Deaths & Marriages (BDM) for your OMC. Once they register your marriage, they will send you via express post your OMC which you'll need if you wish to change your name on official documents, eg: passport, licence, etc. Not all celebrants offer this service and many don't include it in their fee.
• Preparation and completion of all legal documentation including:
• The NOIM (Notice of Intended Marriage)
• The DONLIM (Declaration of No Legal Impediment to Marriage), and
• The three Certificates of Marriage which are signed at the ceremony.
• Fulfilment of all legal requirements prior to and following the ceremony.
