And thanks for stopping by to find out a little bit more about me. As a Sydney based Marriage Celebrant with more than 14 years of experience in the wedding industry, there are 2 things I know for sure…
1. I know more than anything, how important your wedding day is to you! The amazing love and commitment you share with your partner, is something that should be celebrated in your own unique way. (and if it means I need to take off my shoes, so you can get married right next to the ocean or with the water lapping at our feet, then I will. )
2. No two weddings are the same because no two couples are the same, and when I met my couples, I always have this in mind.
There is a saying, “If you do what you love, you will never work a day in your life!” And that is exactly how I feel!!
And there is nothing more wonderful than meeting and getting to know a couple; planning and writing their ceremony, to then see their gorgeous excited faces on their wedding day. That is the best!!!!
When I’m not out and about marrying loved up couples, I’m a mum of two incredible young women who are both taking on the world with incredible gusto. My daughters make me laugh out loud and they make my heart burst with pride! We also have and adore our beautiful and sweet nature Labardor Retriever, Tessie, who has weaved her Labrador magic into all of our hearts, and leaves all of her dog hair on all of our clothes. (Also known as “Magical Fibres Of Love” )
We love our weekends away to the Southern Highlands or Central Coast, Friday drinks at our local “dog friendly” micro brewery, (love that and so does our Tessie), mid week dinner catchup with friends, anything on Netflix and we LOVE “Grand Designs”, wine nights around our fire pit listening to everything from the 70’s and 80’s (best music ever) and more recently, early morning dips in the ocean. However, winter is a bit of a challenge… brrrrr.
So, if you would like a celebrant who is super organised, energetic, light hearted, (with a cheeky sense humour) and with a modern romantic vibe, get in touch so we can have a chat, video call or maybe meet up (Obligation Free) for a coffee, tea or a glass of wine. And hopefully I can be “Your Sydney Celebrant” to get you started on your Happily-Ever-After!

Hey lovely people! For over 15 years, I've had the absolute pleasure of being a marriage celebrant and let me tell you, it's not just a job, it's my calling! Being a celebrant fills my heart with so much joy and fulfilment that I never knew was possible. The best part of my job? Working with my couples to plan their perfect ceremony, however that may look, and then seeing their gorgeous smiling faces on the happiest day of their lives! Being a celebrant isn't just about fulfilling a role, it's about being a part of a magical moment in the lives of two people in love. And let me tell you, there's nothing better than that feeling!
Nothing feels better than knowing you have found "The One", and now you are going to make it official.

“Massive massive thank you Catherine. Paul and I were totally blown away at how beautifully you conveyed our story for our wedding ceremony. The delivery totally reflected all of our heartfelt moments leading up to our special day. We couldn’t have been happier. It was so emotional and created quite a few happy tears amongst everyone.
There was so many people who said how much they loved you and have never experienced a more professional Celebrant and MC. And… I agree!
Thanks for the dance and the laughs and all the guidance throughout the afternoon. To all future bride’s and groom’s, rest assured you will be in very good hands.”
Thank you again Deanne and Paul for your beautiful review. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
So grateful. 🙏🏻💖🙏🏻💖

There is something very special about finding love later in life. ❤️❤️
It can often bring a richer, more meaningful connection, because it can comes from a place of gratitude for having met “The One”.
Deanne and Paul certainly typify that sentiment and 4 weeks ago they became Mr and Mrs! 💍 It was a very special day for these to beautiful souls. And I’m loving Deanne’s dress! 💖 @needleandthreadlondon
I was their celebrant and MC 🎤 for a very intimate gathering @havenstonesyd
And we are loving these fabulous images 📷 from @bedfordphotography. Thanks team. 👏🏻

Rhiannon and Brian were true to themselves and did it their way! 🌹
And as Rhiannon walked down the aisle, a sea fog rolled in creating a very appropriate backdrop for their ceremony. It was perfect. ❤️🌹
Congratulations Rhiannon and Brian. I loved being part of your incredible wedding.

The dodgy weather was not going to stop these 2 gorgeous humans.
It started raining when I arrived, and we waited inside the venue…. and waited and waited ….until ….. it stopped, right on ceremony time.
So….Musicians, photographers, myself, guests and bridal party all dashed outside to quickly set everything up in about 5 minutes, so we could have Jess and Jarrod’s dream ceremony outside. ❤️❤️
The sun popped out for the ceremony ☀️ they said “I Do” but…. as you can see in the photo ….the rain was on the way.
We only managed to have Jess and Jarrod sign the paperwork and then …RUN! 🌧️🌧️🌧️ 90 guests , myself and photographers grabbed everything to get out of the rain. 🌧️
Their mums were the witnesses so we completed the legal process in their reception room, and after we were all dried off, they kicked off their reception with Cocktail Hour with their guests. 🍹🍸
Despite the rain disruption, Jess and Jarrod were so happy they had they ceremony outside and they were ready to party! 🎉
It’s good to remember when planning your wedding, things may not always go to plan and you need to just go with the flow and trust the “Dream Team”you hired…. because we will do anything to give you your perfect wedding day! ❤️
Congratulations once again Jess and Jarrod. I LOVED being part of your day.
❤️💖❤️💖❤️💖❤️💖❤️💖❤️💖❤️💖
