Your wedding day is very special, and you can get help writing your own vows or choose some of the samples. Ceremonies provided from my resource folder or CD, a deposit of $30 refundable on return of CD. you may like to have a reading or poem as part of the ceremony, or a ritual included for that special touch, so during our obligation free meeting you can discuss this with me.

Vow cards and a ceremony keepsake to keep.
If an outdoor wedding venue is booked, and a fee is paid to the relevant authority, eg, the local council.
Make sure that there is shelter in the event of rain. and keep your receipt on the day in case asked to validate your booking.
Two souls with but a single thought,
Two hearts that beat as one.
Please read legal requirements below for getting married.
Other Ceremonies
Together Forever
There are other types of ceremonies that can be performed, each ceremony will be carefully planned and created specially for you.
Renewal Of Vows:
It is not a legally recognized ceremony, allows you to re-affirm your original marriage vows, promises and commitment to each other.
You may have your original Bridal party, that would be so exciting to celebrate again your renewal of your Wedding Day.
Commitment:
A commitment ceremony is for couples who wish to affirm their relationship without legal status. It is an ideal way to celebrate the relationship in front of friends and family.
Pagan / Wiccan:
This ceremony can be used either for a legal marriage or just plain handfasting.
All Wiccan rituals begin with a circle casting.
Love does not consist in gazing at each other
but in looking together in the same
direction.

Namings / Christenings
A New Beginning
The birth of a new baby, a special celebration event of welcoming your child into the family and the community.
It gives the opportunity to anounce the name of the child and to promise and support them throughout thier life. The written, ceremony can be customed to suit each individual needs of the family. There is a wide variety of choices, poems and readings for that special touch,and a copy of the ceremony will be presented.
A certificate of Naming/Christening of the child will be presented to the parents, godparents,guardians, mentors and grandparents, the choice is yours.
This replaces the religious tradition of baptism if you require a non religious ceremony.
A Baby is a Blessing, A Gift from Heaven above, A Precious Little Angel, To Cherish and to Love.
Funeral / Memorial
In Loving Memory
Presenting script and/or Eulogy and Service on the Day of
Funeral or Memorial
Script and/or Eulogy drafting and finalisation.
Funerals are looked upon as a sad occasion mourning the passing of a loved one, instead of celebrating the life of their loved one.
A funeral ceremony can help family and friends accept that a loved one has passed on and to cherish thier memory there after.
A celebrant spends some hours with the family to establish information about the life of their loved one by talking to different family members and aquiring different life stories of the persons life experience and events to creating a meaningfull ceremony.
The eulogy has to be organized and presented well, so checking with the family to make sure that the information and format is what they expect.
Funeral ceremonies can serve as meaningfull points of departure and acceptance.
Memorabilia are often displayed during the ceremony they are certain objects that are connected to or remind the family of past events of thier loved one.
A symbol is usualy requested by the person in the event of passing or by their family on the initial organising of the ceremony.
I am a Funeral Celebrant for Picaluna Funerals, see Suppliers on this website.
Tears heal, memories comfort, love lives on forever.
