“I do, I do, I do, I do, I do!” - ABBA
Congratulations on finding your forever love! Now, let's ditch the cookie-cutter ceremonies and dive into crafting something as unique as your bond. Your ceremony, your rules – we'll toss out the meaningless stuff and focus on what truly matters to you. Personal stories, cultural vibes, or any quirky, unconventional twists you desire – it's all fair game to make your ceremony genuinely one-of-a-kind! Already picturing your ceremony style? Is it laid-back, fun, and modern, or perhaps quirky with a rock 'n roll, Hollywood glam, goth, or King Arthur vibe? Maybe you're leaning towards formal and traditional? Whatever rocks your world, I'm here to make it a reality, and rest assured, it's going to be epic. Are you a rainbow superstar? As a staunch LGBTQ+ ally, I'd be honored to officiate your ceremony. Just let me know your preferred pronouns, and I'll make sure to get it right. Want you fur babies to witness your big day? Heck yes! Let's weave them into the ceremony. Need ideas? Just ask. No specific style in mind? No problem! I've got a treasure trove of creative yet practical ideas ready to rock.
What's next?
1. First things first, we'll kick off with a friendly intro chat, absolutely obligation free. You share the basics – the date (an estimate works), venue vibes, and the kind of wedding you're envisioning. 2. Then, it's meetup time – either in person or via video call. We'll dive into the nitty-gritty – planning, legal stuff, and brainstorm ideas for your ceremony. 3. I'll get to work to write up a ceremony that feels uniquely yours. 4. I'll send over the draft, and you let me know if it hits the mark. No rush, we'll tweak until you’re 150% happy. Want to meet again for those final touches? Totally fine – all part of the deal. 5. I take care of all the legal paperwork through out the process 6. Feeling a bit nervous? We can do a rehearsal to smooth out any jitters. We usually do this at least a week before the big day (extra charges will apply). 7. Drumroll, please! The big day is here! Grand entrance, words of love (and legal bits), cheers from the crowd, and you're officially a married couple. So, what's the next step in your wedding adventure? Let's dive in and make it uniquely yours!
What does the celebrant do?
An authorised marriage celebrant is duly authorised by law to solmenise marriages according to law. This means they get you legally married. They handle all legal intricacies, ensuring that unions are not just celebrations of love but also legally recognized bonds. This includes completing and lodging all the marriage paperwork with the Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages. This is how your marriage is officially registered. From the first meeting to the final "I do," they act as your wedding companion, working with you to capture the essence of your journey. Whether you need advice, have questions, or simply want to share excitement, they are there for you every step of the way. They bring your love story to life. Seriously, how often does your story get told publicly? Once? Twice? So, your celebrant has a huge responsibility to tell it like it's the greatest one ever told! Seemingly ordinary becomes extraordinary, making your life story shine throughout the ceremony. Whether it’s a grand event or intimate ceremony that just covers the legal requirements, consider it handled. They create an atmosphere that keeps guests engaged and wrapped in a cosy embrace of love. Ceremonies go beyond just the couple tying the knot; they're shared experiences, and the celebrant ensures everyone feels like an integral part of the joyous moment.
