Dream Dancer Celebrations
When you bring your ideas, wishes and dreams to a meeting with me, we collaborate to design the ceremony that you want. Your family traditions can be woven into a ceremony that reflects exactly what you want to say. My role is to help you celebrate milestones in your life story.
As well as being a registered and experienced civil celebrant, I have experienced my own sea-change recently. Now an external, part-time doctoral student, studying through Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, and a small business-owner, I ‘commute’ between Brisbane and Darwin.
I am originally from Canada, with a Russian – Ukrainian background, have been married to a Kiwi for thirty-two fabulous years and my three Aussie children now live independently.
I offer a range of professional ceremonies including:
- Marriages
- Renewal of Vows
- Name Giving Ceremonies
- Same Sex Commitment Ceremonies
- Croning or Wise Woman Ceremonies (for those women of a ‘certain age’) or Saging ceremonies (for men of a certain age!)
- Milestone ceremonies, eg Joy of Life, divorce, graduation, puberty, etc
My services include:
- An initial no obligation meeting at a location of your choice
- As many meetings as you require to design the ceremony that best reflects what you want to say
- Access to many resources through NT Celebrants
- The ceremony of your dreams…
- A beautifully presented copy of your ceremony for your Memory Book
- Free use of a presentation table and damask tablecloth for signing your documents
The Dream Dancers
Behold! The Dream Dancers come,
Leading from the mists of time…
They trumpet their arrival
With a dance of rhythm and rhyme.They come from distant places
And of times we cannot see,
They reconcile the present
With the future yet to be ….
