Libby's professional celebrant services are individually custom designed to mark and celebrate all occasions in life. She seeks to transport participants from the mundane and everyday to a place of connectedness with their community and each person's individual spirituality.
The use of ceremony to mark, celebrate, acknowledge, honour or remember an occasion adds a great richness to our lives. Ceremonies are special because they make us step back from the little things in life and remember what is important to us. Too often, we don't stop to do this.
Weddings
Weddings are an opportunity to express your love for each other and formally declare your love, support and loyalty for the rest of your lives together. Your marriage ceremony will include your choice of setting, the involvement of your chosen friends and family members and any readings, poems or rituals that are special to you.
Vow renewals
Many couples choose to renew their marriage vows, for a range of reasons - to include family and friends unable to be present at the wedding, to celebrate a special wedding anniversary or signify a new start to the relationship.
Commitment Ceremonies
Commitment ceremonies offer you the opportunity to declare your love and life partnership publicly. Whether you are unable to marry or simply do not wish to, your ceremony will be created to allow you to express your love and commitment publicly, reflecting your style and wishes. This ceremony is not legally binding.
Anniversaries
You can extend the sacred nature of ceremony from weddings, commitment ceremonies and baby naming ceremonies, by marking the anniversary of significant life events. These are tailored specifically to reflect your occasion, milestone and style.
Baby Naming Ceremonies
Baby naming ceremonies are a beautiful way to welcome your child into your nuclear family, extended family and community. Preparing and participating in a tailored ceremony often deepens relationships. It also reminds participants of their role in your child's life, as well as family ties, friendships and their community. This type of ceremony is an alternative to church-based christenings.
Significant birthdays
Using the services of a celebrant can add more of a sense of occasion when celebrating significant birthdays. As we are progressively living longer and fuller lives, it's good to embrace these milestones and really put your personalised stamp on your occasion.
House blessings
Making your mark on your new home might serve to clear the old energy and start afresh. You might like to involve those dearest to you to ceremoniously open your doors to them. Similarly, for a workplace or new venture, this type of ceremony can be used to bring a new and fresh energy for a positive future.
Change in life celebrations
Significant changes in life include changes in career, retirement, children leaving home, sea change, tree change and marriage separation. The process of preparing and conducting a ceremony to mark these changes provides the opportunity to recognise achievements, close a life chapter, facilitate healing and move positively to your next venture.
Return to good health
The experience of ill health and recovery often causes sufferers and their family and friends to step back and re-evaluate their lives. Commemorating a return to good health after serious illness can be an opportunity to acknowledge important relationships, review one's lifestyle and serve as a springboard to pursue new challenges. A ceremony to mark this milestone can reinforce your "new life".
Business launches
and celebrations
The opportunity to celebrate your new business and promote your business' milestones will assist to engage and deepen relationships in your community.
