Sian was lovely from the start. Extremely professional and easy to talk to at the same time. We had originally hired Sian on as our marriage celebrant, and learned that she does MC'ing too, which she was the best at :)

Sian was beyond amazing. Words cannot describe the love my partner and I have for Sian and everything she did for us. She was so easy to talk to, easy to organise plans and so amazing during the hard Melbourne COVID times. You cannot find a better celebrant, someone who genuinely cares about the couples and loves what she does. Not that I ever plan on getting married again, but if I do I'm booking Sian again!!!

We cannot thank Sian enough for the incredible role she played in making our wedding day so so special. From the very first meeting, Sian was welcoming, warm and took the time to truly understand us as a couple. Sian crafted a ceremony that was deeply personal, heartfelt and full of joy. Sian’s warm demeanor and professionalism put us at ease and she managed every detail of the ceremony flawlessly. We will cherish the beautiful memories of our ceremony forever, and we’re so grateful to have had Sian as part of our big day. Highly recommended!

November 2024

Sian is an absolutely incredible Celebrant, we were so lucky that our date 16th of August 2024 at Maleny Botanical Gardens, was the last day she happened to have available in August! We booked her in quickly & we're so glad we did! We couldn't have asked for a more amazing, bubbly, genuine & caring person to marry us! Everyone who attended has mentioned how much they liked Sian's genuine friendliness, her bubbly personality & how she put everyone at ease. Sian introduced herself & interacted with everyone, she even took it completely in her stride when both the Groom & Bride were a little late. We honestly couldn't recommend her enough. We are so happy that Sian was involved in our day. If you want someone who can make your ceremony so beautiful, so full of emotion, but also keeps it lighthearted & fun, a true celebration of the individuals coming together. I Do Colourful Celebrations is 100% the celebrant for you.

Can we do funny vows

Sian Lavater Celebrant and MC - I Do Colourful Celebrations

Of course you can! I even have a set of questions to help guide you in your responses. We'll cover your legal vows in a separate part of the ceremony o you can absolutely make those funny vows your own?? ??

When I get married can I change my given name at the same time as I change my surname

My given name is currently Rebecca but I have only ever been called Bec, I am wondering when I get married can my celebrant register my name with births deaths and marriages as Bec (Husbands Surname) or do I need to apply to change my given name before the ceremony? Thank you.

Sian Lavater Celebrant and MC - I Do Colourful Celebrations

Hi Bec!

If you're meaning to change your first name as well as your last name to your husband's last name, it may be best to wait until after the ceremony and registration takes place. You wedding regaistration is not used to change your name. It's actually the marriage certificate afterwards that you use to change your surname name from your current (or maiden name) to your new surname.

If you was looking to change your entire name to Bec (any middle names you'd like to keep) (husband's surname) it might be less effort to change your name all in one go after the registration takes place so you can change both at the same time.

Then use that change of name certificate to update all of your records. The other option is to change your first name by way of a 'Change of Name' process with your state Births Deaths and Marraiges, then have your marriage registered, then at least your marriage certificate will show "Bec (maiden name) - then you can change your last name once you get your marriage certificate.

Basically, the short answer is no, your Celebrant cannot change your first name or your last name, but you can change your first name youself before the ceremony so your marriage certificate reads 'Bec' and then legally change your surname after that.

Hit me up if you have more questions on 0410433525 ??
