My partner and I wanted to extend our heartfelt gratitude to you for the incredible job you did as our wedding celebrant. Your warmth, professionalism, and humour added a special touch to our ceremony that we and our guests will cherish forever.
We truly had a wonderful time. Thank you again for being a part of our special day and for making it so extraordinary.
Thank you so very much for your wonderful service and fabulous ceremony. We were all filled with overwhelming joy during and after the ceremony! And particularly thank you for your patience with my parents, who don’t speak English. It was very much appreciated!
Me and my partner were extremely happy with the service Devorah the celebrant provided on our wedding day at Johnny's Greenroom rooftop. She was highly professional, and gave us all the time we needed to set everything up with her PA system which worked perfectly for the ceremony and for our speeches. I would 100% recommend her service to my friends or anyone else who is getting married. Thank you so much you really made our day amazing!
FAQs

Will you marry me?
Absolutely! If you meet the legal requirements for marriage in Australia, I would be honoured to perform your wedding ceremony. I am committed to inclusivity and celebrate love in all its forms, welcoming couples from all backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities.
What are the legal requirements to marry?
To legally marry in Australia, you must lodge a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) with your celebrant at least one month before your wedding. You will also need to provide proof of identity and, if applicable, proof of divorce or death of a previous spouse. I can guide you through the entire process and ensure all legal requirements are met.
Where do you perform ceremonies?
I am a Commonwealth Registered Civil Celebrant and can conduct ceremonies at any venue in Australia! From elegant hotel ballrooms and rustic barns to beautiful gardens and private residences, I'm happy to officiate your wedding wherever you choose. I generally work in Melbourne, but I am happy to travel if you'd like a destination wedding. Let me know your desired venue, and if applicable, I'll include travel costs in your quote.
How far in advance should we book our celebrant?
It's advisable to book your celebrant as soon as you've set your wedding date, especially if you're planning a wedding during peak season. Ideally, booking 6-12 months in advance ensures my availability and allows ample time for us to collaborate on creating your perfect ceremony. However, I understand that sometimes weddings come together more quickly, so don't hesitate to reach out even if your date is sooner. I'll do my best to accommodate your needs.
Do you specialise in Jewish wedding ceremonies?
Yes, I specialize in crafting modern, inclusive Jewish wedding ceremonies in Melbourne. I offer a range of packages, from simple legal ceremonies to fully bespoke celebrations, and I'm experienced in incorporating both traditional and contemporary elements.
Can you perform interfaith wedding ceremonies?
Absolutely. I have extensive experience in creating beautiful and inclusive interfaith ceremonies. I work closely with couples to ensure that both cultural and religious backgrounds are respectfully and meaningfully represented in their ceremony.
How much does a civil celebrant in Melbourne cost?
My fees vary depending on the package you choose and the level of personalisation required. I offer a range of options to suit different budgets. Please contact me for a personalised quote and to discuss your specific needs.
Can we personalise our wedding ceremony script?
Yes, absolutely! I believe your ceremony should reflect your unique love story. I work closely with couples to personalise their ceremony scripts, incorporating their personal vows, readings, and any special traditions they wish to include. For my more inclusive packages, the script is fully bespoke.
