About Julie, Ballarat Wedding Celebrant

As a professional, full-time civil celebrant living in Ballarat and working in Ballarat and surrounding areas I have had the privilege of creating unique and personal ceremonies for over 600 couples and have also created and performed numerous naming, renewal of vows, and same sex commitment ceremonies. As each occasion demands a focus on the needs of the couple, each ceremony reflects who they are - which means I never get bored because no two ceremonies are alike.  I spend time to get to know each couple  as we walk an immensely important part of their life’s journey together through the development and performance of the ritual of the ceremony. This is extremely fulfilling for everyone concerned.

<>When creating a ceremony, I bring all the aspects together to make it cohesive, flowing, well balanced, interesting and visually pleasing for yourselves and your guests, achieving the style and character that you desire.

My previous careers as a theatre and ward nurse and a medical and legal secretary, along with extensive community work have enhanced my professional and life skills and have given me the ability to dedicate great attention to the details of your ceremony.

My professional qualifications relating to my work as a civil celebrant include

  • Diploma of Marriage Celebrancy (High Distinction)
  • Diploma of Funeral Celebrancy (High Distinction)
  • Diploma of Arts (Visual)
  • Advanced Diploma of Office Administration
  • On-going Professional Development each year.
I will treat the planning, preparation and delivery of the ceremony with all the respect, friendliness, warmth and professionalism that you require and deserve.
