other services
A professional speaker plays a vital role in making sure that your event is a success, and can help to create lasting memories for all those in attendance.
All of the below services are $450 inclusive of GST.
Master of ceremonies
Often combined with the officiating of a ceremony, but not exclusively.
Allow Lakeside Celebrant to preside over the formalities of your evening, be it a wedding reception, engagement party, special birthday, charity event or fundraiser.
Professional coordination and introduction of guests, speakers and entertainment will help your event run smoothly and will be sure to impress.
Commitment Ceremonies
The need to connect has never been greater, and a commitment ceremony is a wonderful way of cementing the bond of love between two people.
A commitment ceremony is an alternative to marriage, usually entered into by couples who still want to commit to a lifetime together, but for one reason or another are not able to do so via marriage.
There is no period of notice for this ceremony, so it can happen in a reasonably short timeframe.
Allow Lakeside Celebrant to perfectly articulate your love for each other in a beautifully crafted ceremony, that will reflect your love for each other beautifully and allows you to celebrate your special bond in a unique way.
Renewal of Vows
Reaffirm your love and commitment to each other and share it with your family and friends.
Couples may wish to celebrate a milestone in the relationship like 10 years of marriage! Or perhaps life has been a little rocky, and despite the odds – you have made it through! What better way to say “I do again” than with a beautiful vow renewal ceremony.
Allow Lakeside Celebrant to script a wonderful story of your lives together and deliver it with the warmth and humour that a good love story deserves.
Baby naming ceremony
The arrival of a new child (perhaps a newborn, a newly adopted child or the arrival of a new family member by any other means) is a special gift to the world.
A naming ceremony is a beautiful way to officially welcome the baby to family, friends, and the environment within which they will grow.
This ceremony represents an excellent opportunity to make promises and vows to the baby and introduce him or her to the special people selected to play important roles.
Allow Lakeside Celebrant to guide you, construct the perfect ceremony to welcome your new arrival, and truly celebrate the bond that family and togetherness bring.
End-of-life memorials and life celebrations
A memorial service or a life celebration usually takes place in the immediate days or weeks after losing a loved one.
However, there are no rules when it comes to mourning those you love, so the ceremony can happen at any time and provides a wonderful opportunity for Family and friends to gather together and celebrate the life of someone they held dear.
Allow Lakeside Celebrant to honourably and respectfully guide you along this journey and deliver a beautiful ceremony that will be a reflection of the remarkable life of your loved one.
