Our Story
Hi - I'm Emily, a Commonwealth Registered Marriage Celebrant located on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales!
I'm a creative and adventurous lady that calls home West Haven. I grew up a country girl in the NSW Snowy Mountains, moving to Port Macquarie in 2008. I've got a great fishing addicted husband in Kris, a cute as pie mischievous toddler named Ivy & a crazy fly chasing Queen of the house Kelpie dog Heidi. I also own a local retail store, and have been balancing “real life” work (so I call it), being a Mum & marrying the happiest people on earth since 2017.
So you might be asking 'sounds like you already got a lot on your plate?' Well so the saying goes - if you want something done, ask a busy person to do it. I remember the moment I decided on doing my celebrants course quite clearly, I was at a coffee shop and overheard a conversation between two women about an upcoming wedding. They were speaking about the difficulty of finding a celebrant that suited them as their first choice was booked out. Well the entrepreneur within me sparked and I thought that's it! This area needs more enthusiastic, savvy, young celebrants that the Brides and Grooms of today can relate to. I've always worked in retail so I am able to adapt to different personalities really well. So much so, my store customers quite often refuse to talk to anyone else other than myself - I'm the one that's most treatable and GETS IT DONE!
All couples are different, there isn't one ceremony template that is going to suit everyone. By getting to know you and your partner, I will take pride in tailoring ceremonies to your needs and requirements - no matter how big or small. I have always been confident and proud of my ability to hold an audience's attention, I am friendly and welcoming, and I LOVE love stories, so I'm interested in hearing about your life as a couple, the reasons why you love each other, and I'll help you bring your love story to life in your ceremony.
