Wedding
Your wedding ceremony should be personal and reflect your own requirements. I provide a large selection of readings and vows, which you can use as they are, change them or even include your own contribution.Poetry and song lyrics are an excellent source of inspiration.Couples are encouraged to provide input into the composing of their own ceremony and also the events and readings within the ceremony.
Commitment
Commitment ceremonies are designed for couples who wish to make a special commitment to each other, and wish to declare their love in front of family and friends, without taking the step into legal marriage. I also offer commitment ceremonies to same sex couples, providing them with an opportunity to have a meaningful ceremony, surrounded by family and friends.Couples who were married overseas often choose this type of ceremony, so they can re-celebrate their union in front of their family and friends who were unable to join them for their wedding.
Reaffirmation
Many couples are deciding to celebrate their Wedding Anniversaries or other special occasions to re-affirm their marriage vows. It is a great opportunity to celebrate years of happy marriage, not only for your self, but also for your children or even grandchildren, friends and family.Couples who are officially married in other Australian states or overseas countries may wish to have a Reaffirmation ceremony so that their friends and family, who were unable to attend the wedding, can celebrate the occasion with them.
Naming day
Naming Ceremonies are increasingly popular. Also referred to as Name giving’s, they are a secular ceremony, and the occasion at which the parents or caregivers choose to formally introduce their child to their family and circle of friends, and bestow the chosen names upon the child.Many parents choose not to baptise their children, because they have no active involvement with a Church, or have non-religious beliefs.

Tobias & Jen
“John was the most warm and welcoming Celebrant we could have ever had an experience with. With both Adam and myself, being married before, and having an alternative religion, John took our input of our religion and beliefs into consideration and enthusiasm, and worked his best into helping us making our ceremony script the best it could be. The perfect back drop to our wedding ceremony, and John’s relaxed attitiude, our ceremony was nothing but perfect.
Thank you so much John, for all that you did for us and making our day magical.”
