Civil Marriage Celebrant

About

 


I was appointed by the Australian Federal Government, in 1995,as an
  Authorised Civil Celebrant.  
(although the Attorney-General's official website indicates all celebrants with an appointment date of 1/9/2003) this is due to the starting of the Marriage Celebrancy Program  on that date

I am a "Bespoke" celebrant, all Brides and Grooms have the opportunity to have input to make their wedding ceremony stylised to their own individuality. (assistance with all elements of the ceremony especially the legal parts of the "vows".)

I am the former Executive Officer of MCA Inc. retiring in March 2011, in 2008 was awarded "Life Membership" of the Association. I also hold  membership of the  (ACCN) Australian Celebrants and Celebrations Network.

This Celebrant follows the  Attorney-General's Department  Code of Practice for Marriage Celebrants
                                            

I am daily in-touch, with some 1600 Marriage Celebrants Australia-wide by Email forum on a wide-range of informative issues relating to Marriage in Australia. As well I have a direct link to the Attorney General's Department.

As the former Executive Officer I have often mediated and counselled Celebrants with Celebrancy related issues. As well as Mentored new appointee Celebrants when appointed.

As the initiator of Celebrant Training  in W. A. conducted "live" video recorded sessions of Ongoing Professional Development for Marriage Celebrants as part of their Legislative Compulsory requirement,   DVD's of these sessions were marketed Australia-Wide.

I have been married since 1975, and a father of 4 children, a grandfather of 14 and great grandfather of Eleven Great-Grandchildren.

I am the proud recipient of the 'National Service Medal' awarded to me in January 2003 by the Federal Government for my 'Years of Service as a Nasho' - albeit 35 years after the event. And a further award the 'Australian Defence Medal' in 2006

 


 

  National Service Medal 1968-1974  
     

My days of 'National Service' in the Infantry has put me in good stead, handling people. I am presentable, honest, approachable and reliable.

Currently State President of the Legion of Ex-servicemen and Women read about important constitutional changes here

My philosophy is the KISS principle:-

Keep It Simple Stupid.

An avid follower and believer of the Attorney-General's, 'Marriage Celebrant Program', of on-going Professional Development for all Authorised Civil Marriage Celebrants. This will hone the skills and knowledge base of all Authorised Civil Celebrants, and which will raise levels of awareness within the  'profession' and more importantly the needs basis of clients. It will not clone celebrants alike!

As an Authorised Marriage Celebrant, I am able to perform 'Marriage anywhere and anytime in Australia and its Territories'.
As a fulltime Professional Caring Person (having retired from the Airline Industry after 12 years), my extensive Military as well as my Human Resources background, has given me a better than average edge with understanding people's needs and wants. My ability to speak at public gatherings be it large or small, is not dependent on microphones or electronic devices (though should the need arise, these devices are on hand and can be supplied to handle up to 500 hundred people).

Every Service conducted is unique in itself, each is individually stylised to meet your requirements. 

This Celebrant adheres to the following (See Code of Practice) Marriage Act 1961(Regulation 37L).

  •  Privacy Act

  • Consumer and Competition Act 2011 (replaces Trade Practices Act)

  • Copyright Act
