Say I do in a way that feels like the two of you.
With a wedding celebrant who brings the magic so you can relax and enjoy every moment.
Marriage Celebrant Forster
Hi, I’m Rach, a Forster-based wedding celebrant who brings the magic.
And when I say magic, I mean the kind of ceremony that gives everyone goosebumps because it just feels right.
Whether you know exactly what you want or have no idea where to start, I’m here to help make your day ‘you’. You’ll get my full support in planning your ceremony and making it exactly the way you want it.
By saying “I do” to me (yes, I totally went there), you’ll get an experienced event manager on your side and my step-by-step guides so you feel completely confident about what to say and do, when and how. The result? Looking back on your day and remembering how perfect it was.
Your day goes so fast (everyone says it because it’s true!). That’s why I make it easy for you by taking care of all the details – so you can be present, relax and soak in the love.
Let’s make magic.
Your Wedding Day is a Big Deal
Planning your wedding can feel overwhelming, am I right?
Where? Who? When? How? What will we wear? What will we say?
And when else in our lives do we have to stand up in front of our family and friends and talk about our feelings? (gulp)
Hooold up. Stop for a moment and breathe.
Now just imagine your perfect ceremony feeling easy. The kind of wedding ceremony where you get to drink it all in… the love, smiles, laughter, happy tears and cheers.
Lovely words from happy couples

Wondering how working with your friendly magic-bringing marriage celebrant works? This is for you:
Step 1: Let’s chat
You want to find out if I’m your gal and you probably have questions about me and how it works. So let’s start with a chat.
Step 2: Let’s make it formal
When you’ve decided I’m your gal, we’ll get the legal stuff already with a Notice of Intended Marriage and sighting your ID. A $300 booking fee confirms your slot in my calendar.
You’ll then receive access to the exclusive log in section of my website, a treasure trove of resources to help you feel as prepared and relaxed as possible for your ceremony.
Step 3: Let’s plan your ceremony
We’ll meet at a convenient time, whenever feels right, to start planning your ceremony. I’ll write the draft ceremony and help you with your vows, or write them for you if you need it.
Step 4: Let’s do this!
We’ll connect in the lead up to your wedding day, whether it be by phone, video or in person and run through exactly what happens on the day. And then it happens – YOUR WEDDING DAY (!). On the day, I make sure everything is ready to roll including your paperwork and cards with your vows ready to read and work with your other wedding vendors to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Step 5: Let’s make it official
After your wedding, I take care of registering your marriage and I will order your legal marriage certificate for you (heads up: you’ll need that to change your name/s).
