Commitment Ceremony

How awesome that you are considering a Commitment Ceremony!

A Commitment Ceremony is the perfect way for you to make a ceremonial “Vow of Love”. It is not legally binding and as such is not recognised by law; however, I am a firm believer that your love is no ones concern but your own. A commitment ceremony is a chance to celebrate your love intimately or in the presence of your family and friends. In Celtic cultures this type of ceremony was called a hand fastening and could be made for one year, five years or for a lifetime. While no hand fastening ritual needs to be performed, you may like to include this.

The Australian Government recognises de facto relationships after two years of a couple living together or if there is a child born of the relationship. You may like to start with two years, a trial period if you like, where you can get to know each other more intimately and then decide to commit for a longer period of time. Or, you may already have been together for many years and want to celebrate your commitment to one another. What ever your reason I would love to support you in creating a beautiful Commitment Ceremony.

Just like a marriage ceremony, but without the legal wording, you may like to include personal vows, stories of your life together, poetry, music and rituals. These are an expression of your love and commitment to each other. You may like to keep it simple or include others in your ceremony, the choices are endless. I am here to help you design a ceremony that is just right for you!

I just wanted to say thank you for helping make our big day on Sunday so memorable. I thought you led the ceremony amazingly. You were such a beautiful, serene presence and your calming influence helped me immensely. You’ve also been very patient with us, these past few weeks! I’m so grateful and I know Jodie feels the same way. We both had the best day. Thanks so much 🥰

Hello Megan thank you so much for such an amazing day you did a fantastic job..i hope you also had a good time. Me and Jewel are so grateful for everything you did for us. Your are awesome xx

Mick and I had the most incredible opportunity for Megan to be our celebrant, she made our day very personal and special! Megan was so professional and paid a lot of attention to finer personal details to accommodate our needs. Thank you Megan for being apart of our day xxx

Six weeks before our engagement party we decided to have a surprise wedding, Megan was recommended to us by a family member and she was right on board with a positive attitude from the start! Megan made time out of her day to come see us to organise what we wanted and also did a small rehearsal with us leading up to the wedding. Megan had great suggestions and was always friendly towards our friends and families and to my husband and I. Megan was a cool and calm personality to have join us on our special day and we can’t thank her enough for making that day happen for us. Thank you Megan

Meg was amazing, she was so helpful with the whole process including giving us info and templates to get the ceremony just right. She tailored our wedding to suit us and was so thorough. I have recommended her to friends and they were also very happy with her service so I would definitely recommend her. Thank you for helping to make our special day so great! 💐

What can we say about Megan. The patience of a saint to start with. My wife wanted our special day to happen in our own creative and unique way. Megan met our non traditional approach with a sense of curiosity and adventure, and what an adventure we went on together! From same sex marriage, an ex husband and son walking my wife down the isle, a maori haka, a cake made of cheese and vows that contained a cat Megan took it all in her stride with sensitivity and a solid knowledge of the legal requirements. Megan's acceptance and kindness shines through her smile and eyes, she has the knowledge and skills required to guide you through this very personal process. We know that Megan will facilitate a very important part of your beautiful day just as she did ours. We highly recommend her services. Thank you Megan.
