Congratulations on your engagement! Whether you are getting married in Lilydale or anywhere in Melbourne, my responsibility is to advise & guide you on every single aspect of the ceremony, based on my wealth of experience, substantial knowledge and compassion.

Hello! I’m Sharon and I have married couples from different nationalities and backgrounds in Melbourne, interstate and overseas. Quite often known as the Multicultural Celebrant.

Your wedding ceremony sets the scene for the best day of your life. It is happy and funny, passionate and romantic and it is the ultimate declaration of your love for one another. Working with you and for you, I am honoured to create that personal and unique ceremony just as you have pictured. The day is simply one that everyone remembers for how special and unique it was.

Are you looking for a personal and private, down-to-earth and light-hearted ceremony? With a background in Quality Assurance and Public Speaking, each ceremony is articulated professionally and thoughtfully and presented with elegance and style.

I basically deliver whatever you want with a touch of grace and sparkle to it. No matter how big or small, simple or spectacular, every wedding ceremony is different – private, personal and unique.

I have the ability to make you feel relaxed and calm so you can take in and live your day to its fullest.

As your Melbourne Wedding Celebrant Servicing Lilydale, I ensure that you are ease on the day and relaxed. In saying that I world like to remind you about the importance of a wet weather back up!

As I type this I am listening to the rain falling outside and I’m hoping it passes for the brides getting married this weekend. There is no doubting that Lilydale is one of the best locations in Melbourne for a wedding, however rain, wind and extreme heat is no stranger to Melbourne! I’m always a little worried when couples plan to have their wedding in the outdoors with no plan B. If you are thinking of a ceremony location where there is no shelter from the wind and the rain please have a read through the points below before you make your final decision.

If you’ve decided to have an outdoor wedding in Lilydale congratulations! Outdoor weddings are romantic and beautiful. However, they aren’t as easy as they may look. Outdoor weddings come with additional challenges and pitfalls, but if you follow these tips, you’ll be sure to shine on your wedding day.

1. Make your guests comfortable. Think about what the weather will likely be at the time of day and month of the year of your outdoor wedding. Sunny but not hot, cool but not freezing or raining.

2. Have a backup plan. What will you do if it rains? The ideal outdoor wedding location has an indoor location waiting just in case. Many brides and grooms opt to have their ceremony outside and reception inside. In a pinch, the tables can be scooted to the back of the room during the ceremony.A tent is another option, but only for light to moderate rain storms. A heavy rain will soak the ground underneath, leaving guests with soggy and muddy shoes. Make sure any tent you rent is sturdy so it won’t flip over, and that it has thick and weighted sides.

3. Plan for Wind. Many outdoor weddings suffer from windy conditions. Avoid light fabrics like chiffons and china silks in your dress and the bridesmaid dresses.  You also might want to think twice about having a vail if it is windy on your wedding day. Tell your hairstylist that you’ll be having an outdoor wedding so she/he can plan a style that won’t leave you looking like Cousin It! Men in the wedding party should also use styling product.  And of course, make sure your tent will stand up to gusting winds or find an indoor backup plan.

4. Can everybody hear? When you picture your dream wedding at the beach, you’re probably not hearing the roaring of the waves, the rushing wind, or the local kids running and screaming around you.  Make sure your celebrant has a good sound system that will over power these background noises.

5. Decorations. One of the bonuses of an outdoor wedding is the natural beauty around you, lessening your need to decorate. But you still need to do some work. Visit the site a week before your wedding to make sure the grass is mowed etc. If your wedding is at a public park, you may want to ask the groomsmen or friends to do this the morning of your ceremony.  Other decorations you may want to consider include an arch or trellis to focus the ceremony and frame the bride and groom as they say their vow or strings of lights or lanterns in the trees.  Your photographer will be a great person to discuss decorations with as they will know what will look best in photos.

6. Make things tasty outside. Does your caterer have experience planning an outdoor wedding menu?

7. Don’t leave your guests parched. Since alcohol is dehydrating, consider serving a variety of lemonades, teas and punches. If cold coffee and tea. If it’s a hot day, Be sure to have plenty of ice and water around as well. For a fancy cocktail, why not serve a classic mint julep or a mojito? The mint will refresh and cool your guests.

8. Those pesky flying things. Be sure to put out citronella candles, or have a few can’s of aerogard handy, so that your guests won’t spend the whole ceremony swatting at the air.

9. Here comes the sun. Consider timing your outdoor wedding for sunset where your guests will see you take your vows surrounded by the warm glow of the sun. Those having a daytime outdoor wedding should orient the ceremony so that the sun will be on guests’ backs rather than in their eyes.

10. Permits. Don’t forget to contact your local council to get a permit for an outdoor wedding. Be sure to ask about rules concerning rubbish removal, candle or torch lighting, and pre-wedding photographer. If you have any doubts at all chat to your celebrant as they will be able to help with ideas and advice.  Outdoor weddings can be spectacular but always plan for the unexpected and don’t be disappointed if you need to change the plans slightly.  The important thing on your wedding day is not the weather but the person you are marrying.

Once again with me you will be guaranteed a professional and classy ceremony.

Here’s what some of my couples have to say.

TESTIMONIALS –

Thank you so much for making our special day what it was. Both Matt

and myself warmed to you instantly and found you incredibly helpful in

organising our ceremony. Our guests commented on how well spoken and

friendly you were and you also managed to look fabulous – despite the cold weather! You made the whole process easy due to your professional manner and obvious experience and I am grateful for finding you.

Thanks again!!

Liana & Matthew Smiles.

Dear Sharon,

We just wanted to say a massive thank you for our wedding. We are so grateful that we could make it legal and so are our parents!

We really appreciate all your help with putting together and

delivering the ceremony. We have had such positive feedback about the whole thing.

All the best,

Nick & Julia De Ville

“Sharon was the celebrant for our wedding in February

2011. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. Throughout the entire

wedding planning process Sharon was there to offer guidance and

support. On the wedding day itself she made both myself and my husband very comfortable. Our ceremony was very relaxed and personalized and

many of our guests were full of praise for how the ceremony was

conducted.

Sharon, a heart felt thanks from both Aaron and I for making our

wedding day amazing!

All the best

Aaron & Sarah Tan

We were absolutely satisfied with Sharon as our celebrant at our

wedding ceremony.

Sharon captured the heart and soul of our relationship and was able to

convey the true meaning of our marriage. She was very helpful in

preparing us for the “Big Day” which turned out fabulously.

Upon meeting Sharon for the first time, we were equally comfortable in

deciding to have her conduct and share in our celebration of our

marriage. She performed the ceremony graciously and was able to make it

enjoyable for us and the audience too.

We would highly recommend Sharon to any soon to be Husband and Wife.

Thank you very much Sharon for making our wedding day, as beautiful as it was…

Mr and Mrs Lay

Hi Sharon,

I would to thank you again for all your help and support in making

our day so special. As every Bride & Groom knows, no matter how big or

small the ocassion , it can be a very stressful time. Your warmth ,

patience, your deep understanding of love and commitment, your sense

of family and spirituality added so much to our ‘Special Day’ You

thought of everything and helped us with our vows and understood that

they had to be just right to encapsulate our emotions. We, our family, & friends still look back on that day and just  –  smile. It was just

perfect.

Kind Regards

Diane & Ron
