THE DETAILS
wedding talk
OKAY, SO LET’S GET YOU HITCHED… IT’S NOT AS COMPLICATED AS YOU MAY THINK
Creating your unique wedding ceremony is a collaboration. You give me some lovely info, a few preferences, hopes, dreams and wishes; I will take them all and create a bespoke ceremony to honour the relationship that you have created together.
Read a little more to find out about the process as well as the different ceremony packages I offer and which one may be right for you.
THE
process
We catch up for a chat….
After touching base via phone or email to confirm I am available for your date, we arrange a time we can all meet and get to know each other. We will discuss, your story, what you both envision for your ceremony and a little bit about the legal requirements and what is required from all 3 of us.
We can do this over coffee, a wine or even over Skype if its not possible to meet in person.
Legals…
If you decide after meeting that I am the right fit for you, we lock in the date and deposit. We will then have a organise more in-depth chat about the legal requirements and paperwork necessary to ensure you are legally wed.
During this meeting we will complete your (NOIM) Notice of Intended Marriage and you will need to present any relevant information such as Driver’s License/Passport/Divorce Certificates etc. This is an important document that needs to be complete no later than 1 month before your wedding day that will be lodged with Births, Deaths & Marriages. If we can’t fill in the NOIM together, you can just send me the completed form. You can download the NOIM here to get you started.
Now we can start the fun stuff….
We will chat about your relationship, your plans and ideas… I’ll give you a questionnaire with some crazy questions to give me an opportunity really get to know you and your partner. We will work together to decide what will be included in your ceremony and I can give lots of suggestions for bespoke additions and readings. I can even help you if you need a little assistance getting your vows just right.
Together we will create an awesome, stress free, seamless ceremony, unique to you.
Your wedding day!
This is the moment where everything we have created comes together!
I am there to help with whatever you need. I can communicate with your other vendors and help to deal with any unforeseen hiccups to ensure your ceremony is relaxed, unique and personal.
WE’D RATHER ELOPE…
If you’d rather Elope in secret or have a Micro Wedding you can still have all the glorious trimmings to up the romance.
I offer a range of options to start your imagination running wild. From Legals Only over coffee or a drink to super romantic Rainforest Elopements and Micro Weddings to include just your nearest and dearest.
Minimum stress, maximum romance, you really can leave it all up to someone else.

extras
If you’re looking to add something extra to your special day, I also offer a few additional services that can be included as part of your ceremony.
Want to do something a little different and don’t see it listed here? Reach out and let’s chat about it – I love getting creative and I am happy to assist in any way I can.
STYLING
You can choose from a selection of bespoke ceremony styling and props. View available pieces
WHITE HENNA
If you’re into body art, why not have a little something extra for your wedding with white henna. It’s applied the morning of the wedding and should last the day. It will easily wash off when you are ready.
COLOUR POWDER
Turn your wedding into a festival of psychedelic colour with an expolosion of “Holi” colour powders. This experience is a lot of fun but is not for the faint-hearted.
FANCY DRESS
If you are a fan of cosplay, if you love a gaming theme or your just enjoy dressing up, let’s build your ceremony around it.
