I believe that happiness is found when you believe in the power of love, from love all things flourish including hope, joy and deep connections.

If you have a desire for the original and bespoke I believe I bring to each ceremony the perfect balance of confidence, dignity, warmth, storytelling and lightheartedness.

I feel an affinity with most of my clients. We always agree that the laws of attraction have been at work. These couples desire depth and individuality in their ceremonies; they want a ceremony, which exudes their personality and sentiments, they see the ceremony as the pinnacle of their wedding event and desire to honour it with appropriate sensitivity and attention….. often times with a smattering of fun.

I love being invited into a couple’s bubble of love and witnessing their elation. What a privilege. What I believe I give my couples is a true sense that I am committed to creating an experience, which is truly moving and significant. The moments between being single and that of being married are emotionally charged, heartfelt and tangible.

I particularly enjoy writing a couple’s ‘love story ‘ and also including rituals and cultural customs into my ceremonies. Together we can create a loving and pure slice of life’s theatre.

I exude joy, warmth and enthusiasm. I can’t help it. I warn couples. I connect easily with people and have an innate ability to understand and relate to their life experiences. Life has taught me some valuable lessons and I feel that I provide a certain level of wisdom and insight.

When looking for a celebrant it is important that couples shop around, for not all celebrants are roses. I describe myself as a daisy but not your common variety more like a double petal variety.

About

I have pursued many career paths over the years including running my own business,  a teacher, working as a graphic artist and marketer but my greatest challenge and love has been raising my five children. All these experiences have led me to this role as a Civil Celebrant. I have a love for people and service which combine beautifully with my desire to ‘spread the joy’, serving the community by ‘Celebrating Life’ in all its aspects. I live in the semi rural suburb of Glenorie, Hills District.
