Congratulations on your forthcoming wedding. I am happy to accommodate your wishes, whether you prefer a short and simple ceremony or a more traditional marriage ceremony. I have many sample ceremonies, quotes and readings and together we can work on a personalised and unique ceremony for you. I am also very willing to incorporate your cultural rituals into your marriage ceremony. At our first consultation, I will start with the “big picture” you have in mind for your wedding and then move into details. Then I will liaise with you until you feel the ceremony has the words, music and symbols that truly express the loving bond you feel for each other. About a week before the wedding, we will have a rehearsal. And finally, there’s the “big day” with a ceremony that all will remember and enjoy! After all, it’s your wedding and you should be able to decide on its structure and length.
A few years ago my best friend asked me to officiate her wedding ceremony in New York. It was such an incredibly love-drenched, joy-filled and life-affirming experience that on the flight home I decided I would start studying to become a Marriage Celebrant in Australia. I’ve got a lifetime of experience as a writer, editor and presenter in my back pocket. I’m a former magazine editor (I was at the helm of Gourmet Traveller, Sunday Life, CLEO and Girlfriend) and I’ve been a contributor to the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age. So, if you’d like a journalist with over 20 years of experience at crafting great stories to pen your wedding ceremony, we should work together.
