Hello, and welcome to my website.
I ‘m Sharon Osman, a Melbourne Wedding Celebrant of 12 years.
I pride myself in offering a quality service for premium Weddings in Melbourne and all over Australia.
I specialise in personalised ceremonies, so no two ceremonies are the same. I conduct myself with professionalism and extend warmth which comes naturally to me.
After over 700 weddings I can still confidently say that I love my job and feel honoured to be a part of your special day. Wedding planning, can be both exciting and overwhelming for couples.
For me its absolutely thrilling and rewarding, so here’s what I think. When it comes to looking for and choosing the person who will officiate your wedding ceremony, there’s so much to consider. There are so many Celebrants out there with many options and most couples can become confused on where to begin.
In my journey as a celebrant over the years, I have learned so much and grown so much in 12 years. I would love to share some humble advice on choosing a Marriage Celebrant to help make the process a little less daunting.
It’s extremely important to meet or at least have a long chat over the phone with your celebrant.
See if they are a perfect fit, see if you feel comfortable, see if you connect and are on the same page. Ask questions, as many as you can and examine their knowledge, their initiative to explain and help. Gauge whether they are guiding and supporting you or whether they are taking over and controlling the situation.
Most importantly follow your heart and gut feeling, when all else fails your intuition will guide you.
Wedding Ceremonies are quite often the part that most couples don’t really know how to make personal. That’s where you need a celebrant who will incorporate the couples personalities using, humour, sentiments and love, making the ceremony uniquely theirs. Although the wording and the structure of the ceremony is almost the last thing that is thought of, chatting with the couple, the celebrant gets ideas to create their love story.
There is a small passage and vows that legally have to be said to make sure you are officially married.
Apart from that everything else can be customised to suit you. A good and professional celebrant should be able to connect with you and create a ceremony that reflects your personalities, style and theme for your relationship, and allow you to make decisions regarding everything.
Personally I let my clients know that I’m there to deliver their wishes and hold their hand every step of the way.
The Ceremony is the most important part of your wedding. Choose someone who is going to fit with your personalities, understand you whilst you may want to laugh, cry or scream. Choose someone who listens to your ideas and respects how you want to your ceremony to be received by your family and friends.
A really good fit between celebrant and couple is important and the relationship you have with them can be over a long period of time. I still connect with so many of my past couples. Sometimes correspondence and catch ups can span over years! They will get to know the intimate parts of your life particularly if you wish to share your good and bad times and dreams. You should feel at ease and comfortable to share things openly and honestly so everything flows effortlessly.
Start planning early. All good celebrants will get booked out quickly sometimes up to a year or more in advance. Especially in the Spring and Summer months on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Look for reviews, read testaments. Early morning weddings or twilight weddings are a fabulous idea and will allow you to get the celebrant you want to work around other weddings. Friday or Sunday weddings are also a great option and often work better for other vendors too!
Once you find your celebrant, make sure that you are clear on prices, check about travel costs, deposits and cancellation fees. You should be on the same page with them, whether in an email or something in writing, that way everyone is clear about what is expected of each other.
I hope I was able to shed some light on areas that might be quite new to you. There’s so much more information and a lot to take in, so please don’t hesitate to contact me for a quote or even a query. I’m here to serve you in anyway I can.
