FAQ

What experience do you have as a marriage celebrant?

As an independent celebrant, I have been conducting marriage ceremonies for many years and have worked with couples from various backgrounds and cultures. I have also undergone professional training and am registered with the appropriate bodies.

Are you willing to customize the ceremony to our preferences and beliefs?

Absolutely. I believe that every couple is unique and therefore, I work closely with my clients to create a ceremony that reflects their personalities, beliefs, and wishes. I offer a variety of options and am open to incorporating any traditions or rituals that are important to the couple.

What is your policy on pre-marital counseling?

While pre-marital counseling is not a requirement, I do encourage couples to take advantage of it as it can help strengthen their relationship and prepare them for the challenges of marriage. I can provide recommendations for qualified counselors, but the decision to pursue counseling is ultimately up to the couple.

How do you ensure that the ceremony runs smoothly and on time?

I am a firm believer in the importance of preparation and attention to detail. Prior to the ceremony, I have several meetings with the couple to go over all the details and ensure that everything is in order. On the day of the ceremony, I arrive early and coordinate with all parties involved to ensure that everything runs smoothly and on schedule.

What is your fee, and what does it include?

My fee varies depending on the level of customization and travel involved, but I am always upfront and transparent with my clients about all costs. My fee includes all consultations, preparation, and the ceremony itself. Additional services, such as rehearsals or travel expenses, may incur additional fees.

    Ruth recently conducted the ceremony at my friend's wedding and she was absolutely brilliant. I heard so many people after the ceremony saying that they'd never experienced a ceremony like it - Ruth's approach is refreshingly unique, a breath of fresh air. She has a wonderful ability to put everyone at ease whilst delivering a warm and funny ceremony. Friends were still talking about how wonderful her approach was over breakfast the following morning. It was memorable in all the best ways. From a personal point of view, after feeling nervous about reading a poem at my friend's wedding, Ruth phoned me beforehand and entirely put my mind at ease. She talked me through the whole process and even made time for me on the morning of the ceremony. Thanks to Ruth I felt completely at ease and enjoyed every second. Highly recommend!

    Ruth is the celebrant of your dreams! Choosing her to be our celebrant was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She gave us the perfect day and helped us with planning the ceremony from the moment we had our first conversation. In fact a lot of the planning was whilst we were in Canada and she popped on zoom whenever we needed her as well as visiting the venue together. She is so dedicated and kind, working hard to give you an extra special ceremony and we honestly cannot reccomend her enough. It was like having a very talented member of the family conduct our ceremony with such happiness, love, emotion and fun. Every single one of our guests said it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and that they enjoyed every moment. Ruth not only worked with us to craft a beautiful script about our relationship and our lives, but also helped us to add extra details like a hand fasting moment, personalised vows and a poem read by Josh's mum. She also helped us to feel relaxed about the ceremony and we felt so reassured that she would help solve any problems on the day. She has the sweetest heart and the most beautiful way with words. Ruth, we'll be thankful forever for all your kindness!

    There are not enough words to express how grateful we are with the ceremony. It was one of its kind. You listened to our wishes and brought them to life 100 times better. You had people in tears and laughter and guests could not stop talking about how beautiful your words were. One week on and we are still hearing all about it! We are incredibly lucky to have found you. Thank you so much Ruth!

    Ruth was excellent! Celebrants are the way to go to avoid the location restrictions by our current laws. Celebrants allow freedom to have a ceremony where you want and how you want. And Ruth is a great example of this!

    I met Ruth at a friends naming ceremony and knew I had to incorporate her into my sons Christening. She is so warm and kind, made me very comfortable and made the ceremony personal - it really was about us and what felt right for us. I would without hesitation recommend her and use her again in the future.

    Ruth led our wedding ceremony and everyone thought she was incredible, one person even asked if she was a member of the family! She really brought our story to life and paced the ceremony so well, bringing such warmth and joy to the day. Many people said she was the best celebrant they’d seen and personally she was supportive and wonderful to work with from the moment we met her to the day itself. Thank you so much Ruth

    Ruth is a fantastic Celebrant! I’ve known Ruth pretty much my entire life and was so thrilled that she was able to be our Celebrant for our big day. Ruth is professional, friendly and brings a sense of calm, enjoyment and love to her organisation, prep and delivery on the day. We had so many other things going on around this time, giving us little headspace to think about the day, so Ruth stepped up and took the lead on so much for us - including liaising with the wedding coordinator on site, which was a huge help. Everything ran smoothly, as we knew it would, with Ruth in charge. I highly recommend booking Ruth as your Celebrant!

    Ruth led my sister’s wedding ceremony and it was amazing. Funny, warm, touching and delivered perfectly. Thank you Ruth!

    We absolutely adored our baby girls' Naming Ceremony which was shaped and led by Ruth. From our very first conversation, Ruth's warmth and sincerity shone through- turning to expert guidance and advice as she led us through the process of drafting the script. It's obvious this is a labour of love for Ruth both in how available she is throughout the run up and in how beautifully and personally she delivers the message. Thank you so much for a celebration to remember Ruth!
