Services provided by Canberra Marriage Celebrant Judy include;

  • Legal marriage ceremonies;
  • Renewal of marriage vows ceremonies: and
  • Commitment celebrations (for couples who have been or are about to be legally married at another time and place.)

Let’s meet each other initially. Tell me your plans and see if you think I’m the Celebrant for YOU. There’s no fee for this initial chat meeting.

Being a full time celebrant I’m not limited to week ends or evenings to meet with you or to conduct your ceremony – I have great availability for you to chose YOUR time! Check my AVAILABILITY calendar page.

Call or contact me to arrange our first meeting (see my Contact page).
