Let's Plan Your Dream Wedding Together!
Getting Married by Christine Celebration Celebrant
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! 💕
Your wedding day is a moment you and your loved ones will cherish forever, filled with love, joy, and cherished memories.
A memorable wedding ceremony should symbolise the deep love and commitment shared between you and your partner.
I see my role as your celebrant to create a unique ceremony that reflects your personalities, cultural backgrounds, religious beliefs, and the special bond you both share.
While I am a humanist celebrant, I am open to incorporating prayers or readings into your marriage ceremony if you wish, because it's your special day and your choice.
Located in Kurmond, NSW, in the Hawkesbury region, I am authorised by the Attorney General's Department of NSW to officiate legal marriage ceremonies nationwide.
As a civil celebrant, I am approachable and dedicated to helping you with all your love and life ceremonies. Together, we will design a ceremony that resonates with your individual styles, ensuring an unforgettable day.
My ceremonies are characterised by a relaxed, enjoyable, and romantic atmosphere, allowing your guests to fully immerse themselves in your special moment and have a wonderful time.
I accommodate various budgets and am excited to collaborate with you in crafting your dream ceremony.
Each ceremony is tailored to your preferences, whether you opt for an intimate elopement or a grand affair, ensuring that every element reflects your unique essence.

FRIEND LED WEDDING CEREMONY, YES THIS IS POSSIBLE… LETS CHATS Special conditions apply
Have you considered having a friend run your wedding Ceremony?
It is both an honor and a significant responsibility to be asked to play a role in a family member's or friend's wedding. Your close friend or relative, who knows and loves you, has offered to help you with your ceremony.
While they may seem like the perfect choice, there is one catch – they are not legally authorised to officiate your wedding.
BUT…
Having a friend or relative perform a wedding is a common choice and simpler than you might think.
Your loved one can conduct the ceremony, but you will need a government-approved celebrant, like myself, to handle all the legal aspects.
I can incorporate all the legal wording and document signing and your friend or relative can do the fun parts.
It's that straightforward.
There is a fee for the legal part of the ceremony. Additional consultation fees may apply.

I can assist you in obtaining your Official Marriage Certificate from BDM for an additional cost of $95.
