FAQ’s

  • Are you available for our wedding date?
  • How much do you cost?

  • Do you do rehearsals? Many celebrants do this as a matter of course, but some may not.
  • Do you require a deposit?

  • How many weddings do you do on one day?  Don’t be put off by someone who has multiple bookings in one day, but check they have allowed plenty of time between ceremonies.

  • What support can you offer for our vows?   i.e. does the celebrant have a few suggested vows, are you able to write your own if you wanted to?
