MARRIAGE CELEBRANT MAKING DREAMS A REALITY ✦ When it comes to the day of saying "I do", Jennifer McKenzie is there to hold nerves steady and make sure everything runs smoothly so you can sit back, be fully present and enjoy your wedding.
O
ne would love to sit next to Jennifer on a train ride and start up a conversation about what she does as a marriage celebrant. It's not every day that you meet one, and we were really intrigued by what she does. And from what we see in the movies, it's hardly enough to even remotely piece together what her job involves. It goes way beyond standing in front of a couple and reciting some legal phrases to validate their union.
So what do you really do? Jennifer is an authorised Australian Marriage Celebrant based in Port
Macquarie who helps couples select and plan a ceremony that best reflects what they have always wished and desired for. This is one special day where you'd want everything to be as you dreamed. Celebrants are authorised to conduct formal ceremonies in the community. They officiate and solemnise weddings. They are also responsible for checking the accuracy of the legal documents required. Celebrants have the added special touch of being able to help couples create their own personalised bespoke ceremony. It is all about assisting and guiding people who want to design their
✤ Jennifer's work also extends to other important days such as Commitment Ceremonies, Renewing of Vows and Baby Naming.
