Baby Naming Ceremonies
“Officially welcoming a child into our world with a heart filled baby naming ceremony is a special non-religious symbolic celebration that can be customised to be fun, seamless and meaningful. It usually is a 30-minute ceremony and involves friends, Godparents and families to commemorate a rite of passage for babies and young children. Naming ceremonies are ideal for :
The arrival of a new baby
Celebrating in conjunction with a 1st birthday
Uniting of step or adopted children within a family
Unification of blended families
The perfect chance to celebrate your child, affirm your family values and to celebrate with your friends and family the love you wish to pour into your child’s life. We can hold your special ceremony in any location, home, garden, hired venue or even beachside park. I have lots of ideas and inspiration for perfect baby naming celebration.
Costs range from $300 - $600.
Renewal of Vows
Once really is never enough! Your love is a journey and the opportunity to renew your vows is a chance to celebrate your epic marriage milestones with no legal requirements. A beautiful way to declare “I STILL DO” ongoing love after years of marriage. Renewing your Vows can also serve as the perfect way to celebrate any anniversary – and acknowledge how far you have come, a chance to reflect of the love story journey to date and the perfect opportunity to reaffirm that love and commitment for your next chapters. In your home, at a romantic location, your favourite restaurant, beach or in a hot air balloon! Either an intimate ceremony or a celebration with friends and family – there is no rules, just the chance to make it exactly what you want - Afterall it’s your renewal day – and needs to be done your way . Commitment, Vow renewal, Reaffirmation, or Anniversary Ceremonies are not subject to legal requirement which really creates unlimited options and ideas to create a profoundly moving experience.

Commitment Ceremonies
Just like a renewal of vows a ceremony of commitment, Love, or Life Union, can be held with (or without) all the bells & whistles, tuxedos & gowns, or stripped back to the simplicity of a back yard gathering – and all without the formal marriage. In some states , should you wish to register your relationship, you can under the Relationships Register Act 2010 (NSW), and so subject to eligibility, your “commitment relationship”, can be registered at the NSW Registry of Births, Deaths & Marriages (see eligibility on BDM website).
Funeral Ceremonies
Whilst many people feel uncomfortable at the thought of funerals – I see it is one of the most important life events and embrace the opportunity to honour a life with grace, respect, and dignity. The deep loss of a loved one is perhaps one of the most emotionally challenging times in anyone’s life. And whilst navigating these emotions, at the heart is a desire to honour the person’s life. As a celebrant, my role is to listen and understand your needs and to make every ceremony I conduct the most positive experience it can possibly be to honour the end of your loved one’s earthly presence
My heart for others suffering with loss is huge, it affords me great compassion and empathy for dealing with loss and helping you navigate a very emotional and heartbreaking time. There’s no rulebook when planning a farewell ceremony, so whether you are seeking the familiarity and comfort of a traditional funeral ceremony or choosing to craft scattering of the ashes farewell, or memorial, I will be with you every step of the way to guide you in making beautiful, informed choices.
It would be my honour to help you create a farewell that honours your beliefs and the precious memories of your loved one. Gently guiding family to create the perfect ceremony without diminishing any grief and pain is something I can support you with every step of the way. . Let me work with you; and or should you choose a funeral director (for practical and legal arrangements) – to allow me to plan, provide and deliver a personal life ceremony that reflects, honours and celebrates a precious life lived.
Costs range from $400 - $800
