I am here to help your dream ceremony become reality. That I promise.

I will guide you through the process of legal marriage with genuine care, kindness and of course a bit of fun along the way. I believe it is all about balance and keeping people engaged in the right way. Whether you are looking to elope, a micro style ceremony, short and sweet or all inclusive ceremony, the choice is always yours. I take time to really understand your wishes so your ceremony feels personal and perfectly reflects you both.

Why couples choose me

I am a country girl at heart growing up in the Riverland, I am honest, relaxed and have a smile that makes everyone feel welcome. I have over 20 years professional background in the financial planning industry ans compliance, the legal side of things is in safe hands with me. I ensure that your experience during our time together is stress-free, fun and you are well prepared for your big day. I am super organised and couples love the wealth of knowledge I share with them to create their dream day.

The little things matter. It’s the 1-percenters that make the biggest difference. From the dress I wear, really getting to know you both, the script approval process and making your guests feel like the most cared for crowd ever, I think of it all.

My goals is simple

A guest approaches me post wedding and says wow that was the best ceremony I have ever been to and perfectly reflected the couple. My work is done.

Lets chat and start designing your day.
