    4. Face to Face meeting

    Let’s celebrate me being your celebrant face to face over a vino/coke no sugar. We can then get the Notice of Intended Marriage completed and talk more about creating the ceremony of your dreams (and reception of your dreams too if you add me as your MC!).

    5. Let's build your customised ceremony

    Ceremony questionnaire will hit your inboxes and I must say I LOVE LOVE LOVE reading these. It also gives me more information about your vibe (yes I will stalk your socials for inspiration and obsess over your pug photos).

    7. Personalised Vows

    This is not compulsory at all, but if this is something you would like to do and you need help, I got you. I’m here to make it flow seamlessly. I have developed a personalised vow questionnaire/guide to get the creative love juices flowing.

    (You don’t need to use chat GPT, just speak from the heart, I always cry when I read them x)

    8. Rehearsal

    Depending on your venue, we may hold a rehearsal. This will usually be in the week before the big day. We’ll go through positioning, music cues and any other questions you have. I will also prepare and witness your Declaration of No Legal Impediment to Marriage on this day.

    9. The Wedding!!!

    Tina arrives extra early with everything but the kitchen sink in her car (cordless microphone, cordless BOSE speaker, back up speaker, speaker stand, paperwork and ceremony script [triple checked], sewing kit, sunscreen mist, hair spray, umbrellas, bobby pins, tissues, make up wipes, cleaning clothes, spare ring box, spare copies of everything, snacks, cotton buds, bug spray etc. etc. etc. With every wedding I add more (now carries a pooper scooper so you don’t have to step in kangaroo poo).

    There is NOTHING I wouldn’t do for my couples. When the glorious day arrives I will be with you every step of the way (except when I am getting out of the way of all your photos). On the day (and beforehand too of course), I will guide, support, encourage and help to calm any nerves. I will chat with (and more than likely excitedly hug) your friends and family and make sure everyone is comfortable. Handing out water, fans, ice blocks, umbrellas, sunscreen, confetti, rose petals etc. etc.

    Then I will stand alongside you to get you married!!!

    10. Live the Life of Your Dreams

    Go on to live your absolute best life as a married couple. Life is a precious gift, that goes by too quickly. Don’t sweat the small stuff and never stop making time for one another. Laugh together, cry together, set goals together, travel together and never lose sight of what is truly important in life – relationships.

    This beautiful photo was taken on 4 Feb 2026 on my 20 year anniversary. My husband Jarrod, is my happily ever after and I wish all my couples this never ending love xoxo
