You're in very good company.

Most couples don't know what they don't know when they first reach out.

Whether you have a clear vision or absolutely no idea where to begin, I'll guide you through the process step by step, from the legal requirements and ceremony ideas through to vows, music and all the little details.

You don't need to have it all figured out before we chat. That's what I'm here for.

Honestly? Most couples are.

The good news is you don't need to know exactly what to do or what comes next. That's what I'm there for.

I'll guide you through the ceremony, quietly prompt you when needed and help you relax into the moment.

I also have a few simple breathing and mindset techniques up my sleeve to help calm the nerves and build confidence on the day.

Your wedding ceremony should be as unique as your relationship. During our initial consultation, I'll get to know you and your partner’s personalities, stories, and preferences.

We'll discuss your vision for the day and incorporate elements that are meaningful to you. My goal is to ensure that your ceremony is a true reflection of your bond and a celebration of your journey together.

Yes, as an authorised marriage celebrant under the Marriage Act 1961, I manage all legal requirements related to the marriage ceremony. This includes preparing and submitting the official documents required to legally recognise your marriage.

You can focus on enjoying your special day, knowing all the formalities are expertly handled.

The Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) is an official form that must be submitted to your marriage celebrant at least one month before your wedding.

This document is legally required in Australia to formally declare your intention to marry.

Absolutely. If public vows aren't your thing, there are plenty of alternatives. Many couples choose to share private vows during a first look, before the ceremony or afterwards with their photographer present.

Remember, it's your day and your ceremony should feel comfortable and completely true to you.

When you book the Marry Us Experience, you're not simply booking someone to turn up on the day.

I invest around 20 hours working with each couple, designing your ceremony, guiding you through the process and taking care of all the details behind the scenes so your wedding day feels relaxed, organised and completely like you.

To ensure that I can provide the personalised attention every couple deserves, I recommend booking as soon as you have your wedding date set.

Dates, especially during peak wedding seasons, fill up very quickly. Booking early not only secures your date but also gives us ample time to plan and perfect every detail of your ceremony.

You can come by my office in Port Elliot where we'll chat about your ceremony details. I will also provide a donut of the month!

I also hold meeting days at the Marion Hotel, where we can meet in a private booth to go through your legal documents and start planning your ceremony in a laid-back setting.

Of course if you are an online kinda of couple that works for me too!

Absolutely. Love is love here and every couple deserves to feel celebrated, supported and completely comfortable being themselves on their wedding day.

I’ve had the privilege of marrying many wonderful couples over the years and one thing I know for sure is that no two love stories are ever the same.

Weather can be unpredictable, but your ceremony doesn't have to be. When planning an outdoor wedding, we always prepare a "Plan B".

This backup plan ensures that regardless of the weather, your day will continue smoothly and beautifully. We'll discuss all possible scenarios and solutions well in advance, giving you peace of mind.

Absolutely!

Writing vows is a deeply meaningful experience, offering a special opportunity to express your love and commitment to each other.

I provide personalised guidance and support throughout the process, offering tips and examples to spark your inspiration.
