planning your ceremony, where do you start?

HELP! I know nothing about what to include in our ceremony?

EASY! Below outlines the basic structure for a ceremony to act as your starting point. Only the highlighted legal requirements are compulsory so go for your life! There are lots of fabulous and fun choices and decisions to make to create your ultimate ceremony when couples are given access to my resources.

Here are THREE different ceremonies, of varying length and content, to help you get an idea of what you might want.

These were written for couples who have used my INSPIRATION package to choose the ceremony that THEY want. Most of my ceremonies generally go for 15-20 minutes as a lot can be said in this time!

The Ultimate Planning Tool!

When couples book me, you are given access to online forms and packages, filled with suggestions, tips, tricks, advice and LOADS of options to choose from to include in your ceremony. All you wedding ceremony planning, with all the resources and links, can be done here! Of course, you are not limited to this as Google, Pinterest and Insta also have much to offer. I take couples through this package when we meet up. And, for those who still like ‘old school’ paper, I have that option as well.

The Melbourne Celebrant Julie package includes interactive forms submitted to me once you are happy with your choices. These include:

• Plan each section of your ceremony (drop down boxes or paste in your own!)
• Ceremony Checklist (times, those involved, styling choices, requests etc)
• Plan Out your bridal party (order, who they are, plans if kids involved)
• Your personalised background/love story (where did you meet, what you love about each other etc) for me to create a story for you
• Supplier List (Great for a checklist and for me to know who I am working with)

You will ALSO find information on:

• What will happen on the day re me and your ceremony?
• How to obtain your marriage certificate/change your name if desired
• Couples Counselling Information
• Happily Ever After Brochure

It’s fun, simple and easy! With all these resources and a celebrant with such an engaging and entertaining personality, you’ll have the best ceremony ever!
