Award-winning Celebrant & Wedding Stylist
If you’re planning an outdoor ceremony at a licensed wedding venue, the experience can look and feel very different depending on who delivers your ceremony.
When a Registrar conducts a ceremony, they must follow specific guidelines. This means the Registrars, along with the couple and two witnesses, must all remain INSIDE the gazebo. Unfortunately, this can make the ceremony feel a little distant for your guests — they often can’t hear clearly or feel fully involved in the moment.
As a Celebrant, Sue provides a more inclusive experience by standing outside the gazebo with you, so your ceremony feels open, natural, and connected to your guests. Your witnesses remain seated comfortably with everyone else in the rows, so the focus stays on your love story - not the logistics.

At the end of the ceremony, you and your witnesses simply step inside the gazebo very briefly to sign your certificate at the ceremony table — a lovely finishing touch to your celebration. Photo credit: @essieloutriffittphotography
To ensure every word is heard, Sue provides her own professional wireless PA system, specially designed for outdoor settings (something Registrars do not provide). This ensures that even on a breezy day, your guests won’t miss a single moment of your ceremony!
