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

A different kind of certificate on the grid today 📜

The throwing around of heavy things and the huffy puffy we get up to at certainly makes lugging around my gear for ceremonies and the 60billion steps I do (not an exaggeration 😉) when MC'ing receptions and events much more tolerable 💪🏃‍♀️

Thanks team! 🤘

Did we just become best friends?

It's getting to the pointy end of the stick for my 2025 Feb-April bookings - if you've secured your date with me but haven't tackled the paperwork yet, let's catch up for a brewski and pen date asap 🍻📝

If you haven't locked in your date yet, it's time to lock that sh*t down! 📌

🖤 and the bride wore black 🖤

Eliza + Mitch, another one of my brilliant Spring couples doing things the best way, THEIR way!

There was a first look ahead of the ceremony, at which time these lovers of all things noir and velour said all the nice things to each other (aka their personal vows) without the pressure of a 100+ pairs of 👀 staring them down, followed by a bunch of photos with their devastatingly delectable wedding party, all before the main event kicked off.

During the ceremony itself I said a whole lotta fun and lovely stuff on their behalf (including making a fuss over the blingy bling rings), so that once they'd recited ye olde legal lines and signed on the dotted line (witnessed by the most marvellous matriarchs to be found, their mums) it was straight down to party town for one and all 🍾

Bravo!

Free with every marriage certificate = an NDJ beer coaster and bottle opener 🍻

Honestly, I'd book me for that alone 😁

No wedding party, no problems ✌️

Grace & Zane decided to give a few of the more traditional wedding bits the flick for their September ceremony, and you bet was I there for it!

In place of an official entourage, they chose a couple of special people to jump up for the certificate signing at the tail end of the ceremony, leaving all of the gang to sit back and enjoy the heart and soul of the wedding without fuss.

They gave the whole walking down the aisle stuff the big heave-ho; instead they mingled with their special people pre-ceremony together and gave me the nod when they were ready to wed, mucho-relaxo.

And rather than waiting until most of the day was gone to start celebrating, they pushed ahead with a late morning ceremony in King Edward Park and kicked off their reception at The Greek Taverna at lunchtime 🥳

May green be the grass you walk on,
May blue be the skies above you,
May pure be the joys that surround you,
May true be the hearts that love you.

Sam & Tiarne's mid-September wedding included such awesome things as one of the largest guestlists (these two are POPULAR) and wedding parties 🌈 (all in differing colours, more of that please) that I've seen in years, a hand-fasting blessing 🪢 supported by a VIP grandparent from each family using cord handmade with love by Sam's Mum (who also hosted the big event at home) and a backyard dancefloor and bar 🍸💃🕺🍸

When the couple tell you that they'll be cutting their cake with an actual sword, you know you're in for a good time! ⚔️

Had an ABSOLUTE f**king ball with Josh & Ash at their mid-winter mid-week ceremony (celebrant) and reception (MC), and I'm not saying that just because they supplied me with my own personal slab of 😉
