Best Celebrant Yarra Valley

BORN: a few decades ago and a bit more.

HOME LIFE: I have 2 adult children who I love more than anything, the funniest cat JJ, and a collection of over 100 pairs of kicks.

WHY: I freakin’ love weddings, I am uber organised, I love hearing people’s stories and writing them in my own words, I love a bit of a chat on the mic and really any excuse for me to glam up is a good time. I love listening to my couples on what they believe is the perfect day for them and then seeing their vision come to life.

Celebrant Yarra Valley

WHEN: Whenever I can! Celebrancy has been my passion and full time job for nearly 20 years, I honestly enjoy ceremonies as much today as my very first wedding at a dodgy hotel in Dandenong. I love the variety of locations I get to travel to and the people I meet.

EXPERIENCE: Not only have I taken part in over 2000 weddings, I was a Celebrant trainer for the last 8 years and boy o boy, this is really helped me to hone my craft. I got to meet Celebrants from all around Australia, train them how to be their best (I want the people I teach to be great representatives for the Wedding Industry) and from this I have a wonderful network which keeps me on my toes.

HOBBIES: Metal detecting and learning new things. I collect rocks and fossils and geek out over any new technology. I have a bad habit of drinking milk straight from the fridge and I love building people up to help them be their very best selves.

PHOBIAS: Icy pole sticks. Seriously. If you have icy poles at your wedding I am going to have to pass.
