Special and Intimate

Every couple has their own unique story to tell and if you choose to, I can help you tell it by professionally writing a ceremony that reflects your love and life together. Personalised ceremonies engage others so your guests become involved in your special day.

UNDERSTANDING YOU

I am a celebrant who really listens, I like to get to the center of your story because the ceremony becomes the heart of your wedding day. I can also provide you with ideas and concepts that suit both of you so I can create the type of ceremony that reflects who you are.

LOVE IS REALLY LOVE

Your wedding day is about your love for one another and celebrating your commitment with your friends and family. New same sex laws enable me to legally marry you now and create a significant heartfelt ceremony everyone will enjoy and remember.

I truly believe your wedding should reflect the people you are

When you look back on your wedding I want you to have memories of a special and intimate day

Jenny Burgess

I'm Jenny Burgess, a friendly and engaging celebrant based on the North Coast. With over thirty years in media I have learnt that everyone has a unique and interesting tale to tell. I absolutely love meeting new people and when a friend suggested I should become a wedding celebrant, I thought I could combine my skills as an interviewer and television/radio presenter.
In the media industry I have learnt to be flexible and composed because I know things don't always go as planned and you have to be ready to calmly adapt and go with the flow. I look forwarding to getting to know you and finding out what would make your day special.

My approach to weddings

My Approach

Your ceremony sets the atmosphere for the day and it is important that you have a celebrant that truly understands your needs. My intention is to create a ceremony that reflects who you are as individuals and as couple.

I will have an intuitive, respectful and friendly manner when I meet with you and talk about what you want for your special day. I will craft a service to suit your ideas, beliefs and needs. I look forward to getting to know you and understanding your unique love story. I would like to create a meaningful ceremony detailing as much or as little of your story as you wish.

Whether it is a private ceremony or an extravagant party, I will work to include family members and friends in a thoughtful and meaningful way. My approach is one of respect and warmth to make sure I help create a special wedding day.
