What’s in a Word?

Celebrant Musings on "Officiants" in Modern Wedding Ceremonies I've always been fascinated by the power of words and the stories behind them. Anyone who knows me knows that my book, The Will To Surthrive, wasn't just inspired by my own journey. It was also inspired by another 'will' altogether - William Shakespeare. Or, as I like to think of him, history's most successful celebrant of the human condition....

More Than Words

Most people know me as a celebrant - someone who writes and delivers bespoke ceremonies for life’s most meaningful moments. What many people don’t see is that writing has always been much more than a part of my work. It’s how I make sense of life itself. Long before I began crafting ceremonies for others, I was writing quietly for myself....

As a funeral celebrant, resilience is something you learn every day. Some days, though, are harder than others.

This Sunday brought two family consultations - one for someone I had previously worked alongside - while also receiving three notifications of the deaths of a family member and close friends.

Moments like these remind me that those of us who support others through grief also carry our own losses, our own emotions, and our own lives beyond the role we fulfil.

I’m grateful for colleagues who understand that deeply. One close colleague, a Funeral Director, has a team board in their office with caricatures of arrangers, directors, celebrants and ministers, including hers and mine. A simple but powerful reminder that behind every professional title is a real person, with a life beyond the job.

In this profession, supporting one another matters just as much as supporting the families we serve.

Seagulls Round a Chip If you’ve been watching this season of Married at First Sight Australia, you may have noticed something: the red flags are as multitudinous as the litter of cliches: 'ride or die'...'I'm not here for drama; I'm here for love!'...'wallsup...vulnerable...100%...my person...accountability.' The red flags are blowing wilder than beach umbrellas in a cyclone, and the cliches multiply like seagulls around a single hot chip....

Love and celebration can honour not just people, but the planet too.

Weddings are powerful moments of connection and they can also be thoughtful, inclusive, and kind to the earth. From reducing waste to embracing diverse traditions and communities, every choice we make can reflect care, respect, and intention.

As a celebrant, I’m committed to creating ceremonies that celebrate love in all its forms while treading lightly and thoughtfully on the world we share.

Because a truly meaningful wedding doesn’t just unite two people, it uplifts community and respects the earth that holds us all.
