You’re engaged. Everyone’s excited. The ring is sparkling. And suddenly people are asking “Have you booked anything yet?”
Before you get swept up in wedding expos, spreadsheets and well-meaning opinions, pause. The very first thing to lock in isn’t your flowers or your dress, it’s the person who legally marries you.
Your celebrant sets the tone for your entire day. The right one helps calm the nerves, guides you through the legal bits, and creates a ceremony that actually sounds like you, not something copied from the internet.
Expos can be helpful, but they’re loud. You’ll be handed a lot of flyers and hear a lot of sales talk. Getting clarity before you walk in makes all the difference.
Start with this question:
What do we want our wedding to feel like?
Once you know that, choosing your celebrant becomes a lot easier.
