A Brief History of all things Nell…...
In mid-2013, after a long-held interest, I took steps to become a celebrant when a close family member expressed their frustration at the limited number of readily available young-minded celebrants offering flexible and individually customized services. My unique personality, sense of humour, ever-present smile and distinct personal style certainly sets me a
part from the celebrant crowd! My long-term ‘day job’ as a Paralegal, together with my decade-long service as a NSW Justice of the Peace, has instilled in me a knack for public speaking, amazing organisational abilities, and an unheard of fondness for paperwork. I hold a Certificate IV in Celebrancy, am an Australian Government recognized Marriage Celebrant, a full member of the Australian Federation of Civil Celebrants and a founding member of Sassy Celebrants (www.sassycelebrants.com.au). I am a die-hard Dr Who enthusiast, ardent Elvis adorer, avid skull admirer, and when not running around the country-side marrying folks, am the devoted mother/wrangler of 2 boisterous boys and wife/boss-lady to my biggest fan, Mr Jones. Combining all of these bits and bobs with my broadminded creative nature enables me to offer couples the opportunity of engaging a young freshly-minted celebrant who will expend every effort to make certain that their ceremony is tailored to their personalities, needs and wants - quirks and all! Always one for a chat over a coffee (or something stronger if the mood takes you), contact me to arrange a meeting in person to take the first steps in planning Your Day Your Way. Nell
