Who Am I … A Little Bit About Me
My name is Judy Gibson and I am a celebrant residing in the beautiful town of Cooma NSW.
I would love to create the perfect ceremony with you, tailored to your dreams, and to create an incredible day of memories to cherish and treasure forever.
I am happy, enthusiastic, caring, reliable, calm, dependable and professional in all that I do. I would be excited and honoured to be able to create a special and unique ceremony customised especially for you and your loved one.
My services cover the Snowy Mountains Area, Canberra, The South Coast and anywhere in Australia your special place may be that you would like to celebrate the start of your new life together.
I would be delighted to have a no obligation telephone call or face to face meeting with you to discuss your wishes, hopes and dreams for a beautiful, memorable ceremony.
Ceremonies
I will provide you with a no obligation first meeting either face to face, on the phone or via zoom to discuss your ideas, hopes and dreams for your ceremony.
I will work with you to create a unique, individual ceremony tailored and customised perfectly to suit you, your love and your relationship. Together we will create an incredible day of memories to cherish and treasure forever.
Wedding Ceremonies
Weddings are a special occasion for a couple to publicly declare their love, devotion, and commitment to each other in front of their family and friends. The purpose of a wedding ceremony is to celebrate the union of two people who have decided to spend the rest of their lives together. It is a formal contract of partnership with your soulmate and provides stability and a backdrop for a long-lasting union and relationship through the years.
Your wedding day will be one of the most important days of your life. It may be formal, traditional, casual or whatever you would like it to be – the choice is totally yours!! I am here to help you create a beautiful, incredible day of memories that celebrates the two of you, your love, your hopes, and your dreams for your future together.
What a wonderful way to start the rest of your life together, celebrating your love with your family and friends by creating the most exquisite and beautiful ceremony to honour your incredibly special day, your wedding day.
Vow Renewals
A vow renewal / commitment ceremony is a celebration during which a married couple reaffirms their commitment to each other. It is a wonderful way to tell your spouse how much they are loved and appreciated, and that you are even more committed to your relationship today than the day you were married. There are no rules on how long you should be married before you can have a vow renewal; it is a heartfelt way to celebrate your love and reaffirm the promises you made to each other when you first said, “I do.”
Your special ceremony will be another important day in your life together. The ceremony may be formal, traditional, casual or whatever you would like it to be. There will be no legalities and the ceremony has no legal standing as you have already completed these in your marriage vows on your original wedding day. This ceremony is a celebration to express your love and commitment to your lifelong partner in your journey of marriage.
I am here to help you create a beautiful, incredible day of memories that celebrates the two of you, your love, what you have achieved together so far, your hopes and your dreams for the rest of your future together.
Baby Naming Ceremonies
A baby naming ceremony is a very special occasion that celebrates the arrival of a new baby who is lovingly welcomed into the family and community. It is an opportunity for the parents to demonstrate their continuing love and commitment to each other and to their new child, to share the names that have been chosen for the child, and the importance of these names. The parents make promises to the child and nominate family members and / or close friends to become the child’s ‘godparent’ or ‘life guardian.’
The ceremony is non-religious and there are no legalities involved. The ceremony is a recognition of the gift of life and love, and the miracle of birth and the parents’ hopes and dreams for their child as they grow.
What a wonderful way to celebrate the creation of a new life, celebrating your precious baby with your family and friends by creating the most exquisite and beautiful ceremony to honour this very special day, your baby’s naming day.
Funerals
One of the saddest events in life is losing someone we love and having to say goodbye to them. A funeral ceremony is an incredibly personal and meaningful way to help you say your goodbyes. Let me help you to create a beautiful ceremony to honour and commemorate your loved one’s life in a way that feels right for you, in a way that they would have loved and in a way that honours the life that they lived.
A life so beautifully lived deserves to be beautifully remembered.
I will provide you with a no obligation initial meeting where we can meet face to face in a relaxed atmosphere and talk about your loved one and what you would like included in the ceremony. We will work together to create a unique and individual ceremony tailored to honour and celebrate the life of your loved one.
