Wedding & funeral celebrant Albury Wodonga FAQs

Weddings

• How much does a Celebrant cost in Albury Wodonga?

  My Fully Personalised Ceremony starts from $1650, and Legals Only starts from $650. You’ll find everything each package includes on my Weddings page.

  Every Celebrant is different and because of that, pricing can vary — just like any other vendor you choose for your wedding day.

  What I will say is this: choosing your Celebrant is about so much more than ticking a box. You want someone who makes you feel comfortable, who understands your relationship, and who can tell your story in a way that feels genuine and true to you.

  I always encourage couples to approach booking their Celebrant the same way they would any other key vendor — as an investment in the experience of the day. Your ceremony sets the tone for everything that follows, and it deserves just as much thought and intention as every other part of your wedding.

• Do you travel?

  I am very happy to travel for your wedding! A travel fee will apply for weddings that take place outside of Albury Wodonga.

• How long have you been a Celebrant?

  I became a registered Marriage Celebrant in 2019, just before welcoming my first son. Since then, I’ve had the absolute privilege of marrying more than 250 couples — all while also welcoming two more babies into the mix.

  It’s been a beautiful, busy season of life and I genuinely feel so grateful to do this job alongside raising my own little family.

• What is the process involved in working together?

  1. Get in touch

     Get in touch and I will check to see if I’m available for your big day. If I am free for your date, GREAT! We will then organise a time to catch up over video call. I will talk you through my process and you will be able to get a feel for me and see if I am the right Celebrant for you. Once you have decided you would like to book me as your Celebrant, I will send through my T&Cs and payment details for a 50% (non-refundable) deposit which secures your date.

  2. Planning

     About 3–6 months out from your wedding date we will catch up in Wodonga to sign your initial paperwork and begin planning your ceremony. If we can’t catch up in person, we can do everything virtually.

  3. Draft

     After our planning meeting, I’ll send you both a questionnaire so I can really get to know your story and create a ceremony that feels personal and true to you.

     From there, you can choose whether you’d like to read a draft beforehand or hear it for the first time in real time on the day.

  4. Final catch-up

     We will catch up for a virtual meet the week of the wedding. During this meeting we will discuss all the final details so that you are both feeling 100% comfortable leading into the day.

  5. Let’s get you married!

     On the day of your wedding I will arrive early to ensure everything is set up and check in with you both before we begin. We will get you married and from then I register your marriage with the relevant state and order your Official Marriage Certificate if you are planning a name change after the wedding.

• Do you provide a speaker and microphone?

  Yes, I certainly do! I have a Bose S1 PA with a wireless Sennheiser mic. I will set all this up and will happily manage your ceremony music for you via Spotify on my iPad, which I connect to my speaker — just say the word!

• Do we need a rehearsal?

  Simple answer is no, you don’t need a rehearsal. I always aim to catch up with my couples the week of the wedding to touch base and go through the logistics of how the ceremony will flow so you know what to expect. We practise all the important bits so that you know what’s coming.

• Can you recommend specific vendors for us?

  Absolutely! I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside so many wonderful vendors over the years and I’m always happy to share my recommendations. Whether you’re looking for a hairstylist, makeup artist, photographer, florist, musician, or anyone in between — I can point you in the direction of some truly talented, reliable people who will help bring your day to life. Just let me know what you need!

• What happens if you are sick for our wedding or there is an emergency and you can’t make it?

  While I do everything in my power to be there on your special day, life can be unpredictable. In the unlikely event that I’m unwell or there’s an emergency, please know you won’t be left hanging. I’ll arrange a trusted replacement from my network of experienced celebrants and ensure all relevant documents and ceremony details are transferred to them. You’ll still be in safe, capable hands, and most importantly, you’ll still be getting married!
