So, you need a Celebrant... here's what to look for!
Your Celebrant is one of the most important components of your wedding day so finding the right Celebrant is very much a personal choice but here are a few things you need to consider when speaking with and then choosing your celebrant.
First thing to ask is, are you an Authorised and Registered Celebrant?
We all have proof of this but to make sure you can look on the Attorney General's website.
How well do you connect?
I make you feel at ease, I care and am interested in you both and I 'get' you?
Your heart will know which is the right Celebrant for you after a few minutes conversation.
Any good Celebrant worth their salt will supply the following... if they don't then keep looking!
1. I provide an informal, obligation free chat meet so you can both ask questions, get to know me and then decide if I am the celebrant for you
2. I supply all the Legal paperwork you will need and instruct you on obtaining your Official Marriage Certificate
3. I have my own quality PA system... you should not have to organise or pay extra for one
4. I design and write your ceremony... I will not just give you a guideline draft to copy
for you to then write your own ceremony to give back to me
5. I guide you in choosing readings, sub-ceremonies or other inclusions... because it is all about you
6. I instruct you on what the ceremony components are including mandatory Monitum and Legal Vows
7. I include a rehearsal in the price* (travel to the venue is an extra charge)
8. I have clear and understandable contracts and I explain the contents of each with you... giving you a signed and dated copy
9. I have clear deadlines as to when the ceremony will be complete and when money is to be paid, and issue receipt on payments
10. My Husband and I arrive well before ceremony commencement time and where possible, set up before guests arrive
11. I act in a professional and courteous manner to you and your guests and make them feel welcome
12. We are always well-dressed, groomed and professional in appearance
13. We give priority to any Photographer and Videographer at your ceremony
14. I provide a stress-free experience with me because... "I've got this!"
Remember the ceremony is all about you, the love you have for each other and the ceremony legally binds that love in marriage.
