Hello. My name is Roxy Hotten and my Mastermind subject is Celebrancy.
How did I do? Well, not perfect, but not too bad. FYI - there are others who can witness a Notice of Intended Marriage. However the host asked me to name only three.

Being a celebrant can be a lonely old business, and when I went full time in 2017, I felt that loneliness really badly.
I then heard about @thecelebrantsociety and everything changed. The Best Investment I’ve ever made to my career.
Highly, highly recommend this group. It’s worth its weight in gold!

I love the funeral side of my job as much as the wedding side. Death, dying and grief are areas which I feel comfortable in, and although there are sometimes different factors to navigate as a funeral celebrant, there’s more overlap than people necessarily think.
If you’re thinking about this as a career I suggest:
Training, in-person and online @thefuneralfix (they have just released a fab podcast too!)
Danielle @ceremonies_with_danielle is holding a session in Brisbane in March
Jo @bigloveceremonies speaks about funerals so eloquently and is a real pro. She also has a book which you can buy via her website
Fiona @fionathefuneralcelebrant is a master at what she does, and supports those thinking of this career, including via @thecelebrantsociety
And then there’s me. You can book a 1-2-1 mentoring session with me and I can guide you through any questions you may have.

‘What’s the big fuss with celebrants. It’s only half an hour - they just turn up and do it.’
Ummmm… Excuse me Sir. You are wrong.
Celebrants unite! We deserve recognition for our hard work, right!?

What a day! As you may know, I’m travelling around Australia (well, Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne) delivering a social media workshop for celebrants. With my co-local leader for @thecelebrantsociety @customcelebrations_by_dee we had The Best Day. So much fun, so much great content created.
Tomorrow: Adelaide. Friday: Melbourne. Let us know if you want to join in as tickets are still available.

I was recently a guest on @unbridely podcast, sharing one of my very scientific formulas as to what makes a great wedding.
REPOST
・・・
Roxy’s EXTREMELY scientific (and Unbridely endorsed) early arrivers formula.
The longer the distance the guest has to travel + their age = how early they’ll arrive to your ceremony.
The upshot?
Look after your guests from the moment they arrive.

PINKY ❤️ BEN
I worked with the lovely Michaela and Bernice from Your Wedding Story, on Friday for the wedding of Pinky and Ben, and they produced this gorgeous sneaky peak.
I was MCing this one too, and I’m not going to hard-sell you into getting a professional MC, but I will say this:
Michael, Bernice, photographer Jess and I had many conversations throughout the evening to make sure everything flowed. You see this is probably one of the biggest things about getting a professional MC. It’s not ‘just’ making a few announcements. It’s about working with the venue, event manager, photographer, videographer, DJ, etc to keep everything on track.
If you’d like to chat MCing with me, this is an option you can add to any Full Works Package. Contact me for prices.

I just loved how much vim and vigour Kasey and Dave’s flower man put into his role.
Talk about starting a ceremony off with style!

I seem to have found some new followers recently (hello friends!) so I thought I’d post up my video to introduce myself properly to everyone.
Also… Valentine McFarty is getting so much greyer than he was here. As am I!

Q: How long does a ceremony take?
A: My Full Works package takes about 30 minutes. Sounds like a long time? It’s not - it packed full of good stuff so will whiz by and before you know it, you’ll be married!

A Cryptex ring box in action!
FYI the Cryptex was popularised in the Dan Brown book, the Da Vinci Code and when you first buy one, the lock is set to be released when the letters are aligned to ‘I love you’.

It’s was a loooooooong road to James and Talia’s wedding, but they took it in their stride and ended up with the bestest day ever.
