OVERVIEW
Tamworth-based civil marriage celebrant, I love nothing more than helping loved-up couples wed!
What will you get if booking me?
Communication is key and I LOVE to be organised, so if I am your celebrant I will get the balling started almost immediately. Within the first week or two, via email correspondance/Zoom), I aim to have the Notice of Intended Marriage completed and signed so that this legal component is sorted and out of the way. As you get closer to your wedding date, more and more vendors will require your attention, so therefore my aim is to have all of your celebrancy requirements sorted nice and early so that you don't need to think of it again until the big day has arrived.
What happens after the NOIM has been completed and signed?
Now comes the fun part! I will send you 2 editable documents to complete and return to me:
1x Ceremony Details
1x Let's Get Personal (15 questions for both parties to complete and return to me separately)
Once both of these documents have been completed and returned to me, I will start putting together ideas for your script. I love to start early and build upon ideas along the way. There's always new and exciting ways to do things, and I am always open to getting creative!
If wanting to write your own vows, I will also send 2 x documents that will assist you with this.
I am big on communication and love getting to know the couples that I am working with so it's not uncommon to receive emails or texts from me along the way touching base with ideas for your special day.
Whether it be an elopement, something simple and sweet, or a ceremony that incorporates all the bells and whistles, creating a ceremony that reflects your dream day is important to me.
About
Hi! My name is Mel and my little offsider is Polly! Outside of teaching and celebrant duties we can be found enjoying the simplicity of country life in Tamworth. I'm a 'Less is More' type of gal... a big believer in 'Quality over Quantity'. I love being able to work with people from all walks of life, and creating a ceremony that is tailored and personalised to you is what I'm all about. Please feel free to drop me a line and say hello.

FAQ
Quality over quantity always! My ceremonies are completely personalised around the two of you, with the majority of the script being based around the questions that I ask you to answer for me. Max 20 minutes from Intro to Conclusion! I'm a big believer in 'Less in More'. The feedback that I have received so far is that they love how individualised and personal my scripts are and that they've always had a good level of formality, mixed together with fun. I'd rather create a really special ceremony that holds everyone's attention for 20 minutes, than one that drags on that little bit too long.
If you're looking for a celebrant to pad out the majority of their script with 'Words about Love and Marriage', then I am not for you! This isn't my style at all! Whilst it's nice to have a couple of nice statements or quotes within my script, I'd much prefer the content of my scripts to be aunthentic and personalised to the two of you- your story, your feelings about one another, and generally just engaging content that your guests will want to hear.
