I would like to confirm she is unavailable perform weddings without the assistance of a qualified celebrant until September 2008.

Celebrant 2 u can provide the services of another celebrant for your upcoming wedding – please call Kellie today.

Congratulations on your up coming wedding ! I am very aware of daunting task ahead of you to find that perfect celebrant…. Well look no further ! Celebrant 2 u understands every bride and groom wishes their wedding ceremony to be significant and memorable. Whether this is your first marriage or your third, whether you are young, or walking down the aisle later in life, you will want a wedding ceremony that reveals you as a couple.

We will assist you to create a unique and personalised ceremony that reflects you both and respects your culture, beliefs and expectations as your wedding is a personal experience. The most important thing is that you both feel comfortable with the celebrant and confident they will provide a service with you both.

I am confident but not overbearing, friendly, passionate and have a pure sense of joy and commitment to my role as a celebrant. I am an active listener and pride myself on professionalism. I look forward to speaking with you regarding your up coming wedding.

The renewal of wedding vows can be a momentous and valued ceremony for you along with your family and friends. The ceremony will celebrate not only the life you two have already shared but to look forward to many more loving years ahead of you. In a relationship, we give ourselves freely and generously into the hands of the one we love. To renew your vows is a special affirmation of your love and will commemorate this love to you and your family.

There is nothing more astonishing than for your family and friends to watch as hands and hearts are connected in lasting love, a truly romantic moment for all attendees.

Vow renewal can be as personal as you may like them to be. There is no specific structure. Some people like to reaffirm their original vows or re-write them to include the life they have already lived and look forward to their everlasting love toward the future. You may like to include your children or grand children, pets, readings, original bridal party.

It can be formal or informal the choices are endless. A candle or sand blending ceremony could include your whole family. Giving and receiving of new rings. Unlike weddings, there is no legal paperwork; however, Kellie will provide you with a beautiful certificate to commemorate this special occasion. Please call me today to discuss your requirements.

A Commitment Ceremony is a meaningful and dignified ceremony for adult couples. The purpose of the Ceremony is to make a public declaration of life-long commitment, love and dedication between two people.

The occasion can be shared with family and friends or the ceremony can be held in private without guests.

A Commitment Ceremony does NOT have any legal implications and does not provide you with any legal rights or responsibilities.

There is no structure for this service; as such the limit is your imagination. You may like to have a unity candle or sand blending service or release of butterflies or doves. What about Wine Ceremony – the cup of life is symbolic of the pledges you have made to one another to share together the fullness of life.

When someone we love has died, it is always a very difficult and painful time. It is at this distressing time that the family is often faced with many decisions about the funeral. Celebrant 2 u will assist you in providing those answers. Nothing can take away the shock of death, but a genuine, well prepared tribute eases the pain.

Find a quiet, safe place to begin your planning. Give yourself permission to laugh, cry and to remember. There is an implicit psychological progression to the plan, if you follow it from beginning to end, you will discover what is right for you. Creating a ceremony that reflects you, your ideas, beliefs and feelings will become increasingly clear.

It seems ironic that traditional funeral services are the only kind that many people consider. It's as if after a life filled with individual choices and decisions, we ultimately conform as everyone else.

None of us live lives in exactly the same way. So it seems inappropriate that everyone should be memorialized in death in exactly the same way.
I can assist you to find the appropriate music, poetry, readings and symbols that have personal significance for you and your family. We will honour the life of the departed, and say a beautiful farewell in a way that is meaningful for you. My aim is to provide you with ceremonies that are relaxed, intimate and simply perfect. I can even give you suggestions to help you write your own. The recollection of a personal ceremony is a constant consolation.

Please contact Kellie to discuss your requirements.

Naming Ceremonies

A name giving ceremony is not a baptism or a christening although it is sometimes referred to as a 'secular christening'

The name giving ceremony conducted by Celebrant 2 u is a fulfilling and significant experience for all concerned. It is an occasion when a new birth is celebrated and a child welcomed into the world. Family relationships are deepened and the parents become more fully aware of their responsibilities. So, of course, do the godparents (also called 'mentors' or' guardians') and grandparents.

Things to consider
If you are having supporting adults or godparents would you like say a few things about them and the importance in your child’s life. Would you like to have a special poem or reading for the day. Is there anyone else special to your child i.e. Grandparents, great grandparents?

Other siblings love to be recognised also on this special day, how you will include them on the day.

Types of ceremonies or inclusions
