FAQ

What experience do you have as a marriage celebrant?

We have several years of experience as a marriage celebrant, having officiated weddings for couples with varying backgrounds and beliefs. We have a deep understanding of the legal requirements and the emotional significance of the marriage ceremony, and we strive to make each ceremony unique and memorable for the couple and their guests.

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

Absolutely. We believe that every couple is unique and has their own vision for their wedding day. We work closely with the couple to understand their beliefs, values, and preferences, and we tailor the ceremony to reflect their personalities and love story. We welcome cultural, spiritual, and personal elements to be included in the ceremony, as long as they are legal and respectful.

What is your policy on pre-marital counseling?

As a humanist celebrant, we do not require pre-marital counseling, but we strongly encourage it. Pre-marital counseling can help couples establish a strong foundation for their marriage, and can address any potential issues or concerns before they become bigger problems. We can provide resources and referrals for pre-marital counseling, and we are happy to incorporate any insights or advice from the counseling into the ceremony.

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

We take great care to ensure that the ceremony runs smoothly and on time. We arrive early to the venue to set up and coordinate with the other vendors, and we communicate with the couple and their wedding planner to confirm the timeline and details. We also conduct a rehearsal before the wedding day to ensure that everyone knows their roles and the timing of the ceremony. On the wedding day, we remain calm and flexible, and we adapt to any unexpected changes or delays.

What is your fee, and what does it include?

Our fee varies depending on the location, complexity, and duration of the ceremony. We provide a detailed quote after the initial consultation, and we are transparent about our fees and any additional costs. Our fee includes the initial consultation, unlimited email and phone communication, customized ceremony script and revisions, rehearsal coordination, travel expenses, and the ceremony itself. We also offer add-ons, such as vow writing assistance, ceremony enhancements, and post-wedding paperwork filing.

    Stephanie conducted our wedding ceremony and did an incredible job. From our initial chats, to the planning and writing of the ceremony, she was amazing. She created a beautiful, thoughtful and personal ceremony that was exactly what we wanted - equal parts fun and heartfelt. We couldn't have done it with out her and couldn't imagine our wedding any differently. We're so pleased Stephanie was our celebrant and highly recommend her to anyone wanting a humanist ceremony.

    If you've wound up here you don't need to look any further for the perfect celebrant. Stephanie was amazing to work with and helped 2 clueless brides craft a wedding ceremony that exceeded our expectations. We received so many compliments from friends and family on how personalised the ceremony was, and how it helped them get to know us as a couple. She was flexible with our requirements (our ceremony was half French, half English) and very helpful with creative suggestions for readings / vows and ways to make our ceremony a true reflection of us. Thank you / Merci Stephanie!

    Stephanie did a fantastic job officiating our very personalised, bilingual, wedding ceremony. She was easy to work with and was able to offer useful advice. We received many compliments from our friends and family on how beautiful the ceremony was. Even the photographer got emotional! On the day Stephanie was very professional. She had no problem getting the attention of the whole room, both in French and in English, and yet knew how to "disappear" at crucial moments like the exchange of the rings. She even learnt a few lines of a third language for us! I would definitely recommend Stephanie to anyone wanting a very personal ceremony and for whom the traditional religious or civil weddings just don't quite cover it :)

    Steph did such a great job with our humanist wedding ceremony. She was a tremendous help with figuring out how to plan the day and thinking through what would make it most meaningful and personalised to us. Many of our guests commented how beautiful the ceremony was - we couldn't have asked for any better. We would highly recommend her!

    We asked Stephanie to be the celebrant for our wedding and she was fantastic. From our initial pub meeting for ‘the big chat’ to subsequent conversations in the run up to the event she was engaged, enthusiastic and supportive of our wishes. The event itself was a great success with several guests remarking on how the ceremony was touching and fun. We’d highly recommend Stephanie!

    Stephanie conducted our wedding in February 2022 and she was absolutely perfect -- from the help she provided with our vows and the very personal script, to coming all the way up to Scotland and conducting the ceremony entirely in French so that our families could understand it!

    I recently attended a naming ceremony conducted by Stephanie. It was such a positive, cheerful and uplifting ceremony - I loved it.
