SIMON'S SERVICES
Whether you’re planning a wedding, a commitment ceremony, or seeking to strengthen your relationship, I’m here to help you create meaningful and memorable experiences along the way.
WEDDING CELEBRANT
When You Say Yes
Your wedding day should be as unique and special as your love story. From the initial meeting to the moment you say “I do,” I’ll work with you to craft a personalised ceremony that reflects who you are as a couple. With attention to detail and a focus on creating a stress-free, fun, and meaningful experience, I’m dedicated to making your wedding day unforgettable.
The Complete Package
This is the one for your big day with all your friends and family, at your dream venue - just the way you've wanted it.
​
I will have a few meetings with you to design your own personalised ceremony, that will be all that you want it to be. Most of the meeting can be online or face-to-face, but for the signing of the legal paperwork, that does need to be face-to-face.
​
​
Cost: $1320*
Legals Only
You may want me to be at your ceremony just for the legal side of things, maybe to oversee someone else leading the ceremony, or because you want a no-fuss legally valid marriage without all the costs and ceremony.
​
You are still required to give at least one month's notice, by completing the NOIM form, and you do need to have witnesses over the age of 18.
​
​
Cost: $880*
Elopement
You may want to be married, and to make the focus just about yourselves as a couple, away from any potential dramas. I can help you do the basics to be legally married, at your home or a special location, if you want. Just you, me and your witnesses.
​
You are still required to give at least one month's notice, by completing the NOIM form, and you do need to have witnesses over the age of 18.

COMMITMENT AND RENEWAL CEREMONIES
When You Keep Saying Yes
Celebrate your love and commitment in a way that resonates with you. Commitment ceremonies are a wonderful alternative for couples who want to honour their relationship without the legal formalities. Connection is the foundation for successful relationships, and together, we’ll design a ceremony that captures the essence of your bond and celebrates your unique journey, highlighting the meaning behind your commitment.
For those looking to reaffirm their love and vows, Renewal Ceremonies are a beautiful way to celebrate milestones and renew your commitment to each other. Whether it’s your first anniversary or your fiftieth, a renewal ceremony is a special opportunity to reflect on your journey together and look forward to the future.
Renewal of Vows
There are many beautiful and very personal reasons to renew your vows, and this can be a way to refresh and remind yourselves and your loved one of the importance of your marriage.
​
It may be a special anniversary, or you've come through an exciting or difficult season ... it just seems the right time to recommit yourselves to each other.

Commitment Ceremony
If you don’t want the legal side of things done, but do want to make a public commitment, this is for you.
​
Commitment ceremonies are a personal way to declare the importance of your relationship, and your promises to one another, but without the legal validation that comes through signing the documents.

I'm not just about helping you get married. I'm about helping you have a great marriage! Strong relationships don’t just happen; they are built on communication, understanding, and mutual respect. Healthy relationships require intentional effort and dedication.

Marriage is a commitment to lifelong growth, both together and individually, and I’m here to support you on that journey.

Coaching Sessions
You may want to talk an issue through and would like some outside support. You can always book a one-off session, or book a number of sessions. It's up to you, and this can be determined by your current situation.
​
I specialise in working with couples and also with addictive behaviours. This doesn't mean I exclusively work with couples where addiction is an issue. I also support couples with all kinds of issues, and to help them find a way through together

Relationship Assessments
By using the incredibly helpful Gottman Assessment, you’ll learn about yourselves and how your relationship works (or doesn’t!)

The other assessment that I use is Prepare/Enrich. This is an evidence-based tool that has been proven to enhance relationship satisfaction. There is an assessment for engaged couples and also married couples.

Some Happy Couples
"We couldn't have asked for a better celebrant. We immediately clicked with Simon, and he really got us. Guests at our wedding thought he had known us for years, and that was because of how he presented the whole wedding ceremony. It was perfect."
