Question 1

Are you an insured business and do you guarantee your work?

Accepted Answer

Yes I have public liability and professional indemnity through a celebrant association - Australian Marriage Celebrants (AMC). I can assure you that I will work with you to create a ceremony that you wish for.

Question 2

How did you decide to get into your line of work?

Accepted Answer

After 20 years in administration for government, I retired to help with my grand children. Started training as a celebrant to keep active. Found my administrative skills could be of great use and celebrancy provided me a way of continuing to meet lovely people - just like you!!

Question 3

Do you have a favourite customer story you would like to share?

Accepted Answer

I am committed to keeping my clients ceremonies confidential. However, being able to organise paperwork and the ceremony within 1 week after another celebrant could not go ahead was a challenge that I loved and successfully managed. A wonderful wedding after intense co-ordination. All great.

Question 4

What do you like most about your job?

Accepted Answer

Love the people I meet and the families. Love the appreciation shown and the smiling faces. Feeling the excitement of the bride and groom on their special day gives me great joy and indeed satisfaction.

Question 5

What questions should a customer ask to hire the right service professional?

Accepted Answer

What do you include in your price? Do you do the legal documentation and submit the notice of intent to marry. Do you register the marriage online promptly. Can I include my children in the ceremony.

Question 6

What questions do customers commonly ask and how would you answer them?

Accepted Answer

What documents do I need? I include in my quote the documents you require or I can tell you over the phone by asking you a couple of simple questions e.g. do you have a passport or birth certificate and have you been married before.

Question 7

What makes you the most reliable and trustworthy person for the job?

Accepted Answer

My experience in the field of celebrancy is a priority. I have been asked back several times by the same famillies to do more ceremonies as they trust my work and know they can rely on me to deliver a ceremony that suits their family.

Question 8

Why should a customer hire you over another service provider?

Accepted Answer

My priority is to create for you a meaningful ceremony from the heart so that your occasion is one that you and your guests will always remember. I love to include your children if you wish. Personal ceremonies created for you.

Question 9

What are the typical things that you need to know before you can provide a quote to a customer?

Where is the ceremony to be held. What is the date of the ceremony. What time is the ceremony to be held. Will you require the use of a signing table and cloths.

Question 10

How can a customer save money before you start the work? Please give 3 tips

Accepted Answer

Ring births deaths and marriages and ask for their price. Provide your own table and cloths which is easy to do if you have the ceremony at home. Check if your event hire package includes the table and cloths so that I don't charge you again.
