OVERVIEW
Want a ceremony that feels completely like the two of you?
Hi, I’m Liz. If you want your guests laughing, listening and genuinely feeling part of the moment, rather than wondering how long until cocktail hour, we might be a very good match.
Whether you're getting married in Geelong, along the Great Ocean Road or in Hobart, I'll help you create a ceremony that's warm, relaxed, personal and actually enjoyable.
With me as your celebrant, you can:
"I’ve been to a lot of weddings, and I’ve never seen a ceremony where the entire room was that engaged. People weren’t just watching, they were completely part of it." - Stephen M
Your ceremony. Your people. Your story.
Geelong or Hobart? You're in the right place.
You might be wondering why I work on both sides of Bass Strait.
Geelong is home, and Hobart is also a big part of my life.
So if you're planning a Hobart wedding, you're not paying to fly a celebrant in for the weekend. You're choosing someone who genuinely spends time in both places.
You enjoy your wedding. I'll worry about the details.
About
I'm a former lawyer, ethics adviser, public speaker, Mum to 4 sons and enthusiastic collector of Labrador fur. I love stories, people and ceremonies. Comedy improv keeps me humble and reminds me that life rarely goes exactly to plan. Away from weddings, you'll find me at the gym, around animals, or trying to persuade one particular future daughter-in-law that she really should get married so I can officiate! I love cultural traditions, family rituals and your furry family member's involvement!

FAQ
There are actually lots of ways this can be done and it can really add to the beauty of the day.
One of my favourites is a pin pendant with the photo of your loved one which you can pin to your bridal bouquet or lapel. Its intimate and they are with you all day.
Another idea is to serve the loved ones favourite drink, "Pop's Pina Colada", or "Mum's Margharita" as a special toast.
Yet another lovely addition is to have a table at the side with your loved ones photo and a candle. (Remember the wind factor!) At the very start of the ceremony have your celebrant light the candle and say some meaningful words before stepping away and starting the main ceremony.
All these ways let you remember those closest to you and have them be a part of your day without overwhelming feelings of sadness.

Whether you want lots of laughs, something romantic and relaxed, personal vows, family or cultural traditions, or a few happy tears, I’ll help you work out what feels right for the two of you and create a ceremony that genuinely feels like yours.
No! I spend a lot of time in Hobart, so there are no additional travel or accommodation fees for my Hobart weddings.
Absolutely. If staring at a blank page fills you with dread, don’t worry. I’ll help you create personal vows that sound like you, rather than something copied from the internet.
That’s entirely up to you! My style is warm, relaxed and engaging, with humour where it feels natural. We’ll create the right balance for you, your personalities and the kind of wedding you’re planning.

Get Expert AdviceHaving a friend act as our celebrant: Pros and cons?
We are considering having a close friend conduct our wedding ceremony. We plan to handle the official, legal paperwork beforehand, so the day itself would be a symbolic ceremony led by them. Has anyone done this before? Did it make the ceremony feel more personal and seamless, or did you regret not hiring a professional?

I have actually been involved where a close relative presented the non legal aspects of the wedding and yes, it was beautiful- but you can't limit it to the legal documents. The registered celebrant must be involved in the ceremony itself. They need to say a particular paragraph (The Monitum) and listen to your 1line legal vows. If you don't want any involvement of the celebrant on the day you could have a "legals only" before hand where the statements I referred to and the signing can occur with just you and your witnesses.
However if the celebrant has already married you or you are not having them involved as required you must make it clear to the guests that what is happening with your friend is not a wedding.
The ceremony I was involved in had me do the legal documents, step in during the wedding to say the monitum and hear the vows then step back until required for the signing. Everything went very smoothly. Wishing you a happy experience on the day!
