Weddings: all ways
My services
Bespoke ceremony writing
It all begins with an initial chat. A coffee, a glass of wine, in person or over Zoom! I get to know the two of you, what you’re dreaming for your wedding day and begin to form an idea for your ceremony. From there, you get full approval with unlimited edits up until the day of your ceremony.
Vow assistance
Writing is my passion, and thankfully, I seem to have a way with words! This can come in handy when it comes to nervous brides and grooms who can’t seem to find the right words to tell their loved one exactly how I feel. That’s where I can (discreetly) help - at no extra charge! This is also handy to ensure your vows are on the same page - literally. One of you with two-page vows and one of you with a paragraph is certainly not ideal!
Lodging of all legal documents
As part of your booking, I take care of the filling out and lodging of all the legal documents that need to be received by Births, Deaths and Marriages. The Notice of Intention to Marry (NOIM) needs to be lodged at least one month out from the date of your ceremony and within 18 months before that ceremony date. I will also ensure you receive your marriage certificate after the ceremony is complete!
Creation of your ‘personal journey’
As part of your booking with me, I e-mail both parties a questionnaire asking a few questions about how you met, your favourite memory as a couple, what you like most about the other (and their worst trait - eeek!) and how you define marriage. From there I create a bespoke personal journey, which is like a snapshot into your relationship and how you really feel about the other. This is so special for your guests and a nice little surprise for both of you, which means you won’t get to hear it until the day of your ceremony - sorry!
