Celebrating love and life
It’s what Michaela does best
Hello, I’m Michaela
I’m a people person. Many years in the media has seen me develop skills to hold a crowd so moving into celebrancy made sense.
I was married for 12 years to a wonderful man who sadly is no longer with us.
I love my two adult children, a glass of wine at night and bringing out the best in people.
“Ceremonies need heart”
I offer a passion and empathy to services because of my personal journey.
My voice is my signature – whether to soothe an aching family or calm a nervous bride or groom.
Weddings with Michaela
My ceremonies are romantic and fun!
I personalise them based on the couple’s individual desires.
Whether it’s a simple ceremony or something more elaborate, I can create it.
If you have a theme, I’ll be part of it - even down to the clothes I wear!
Let your imagination run wild when planning your day. I can even make some suggestions to demonstrate your love to your family and friends.
And I’ll support you all the way to ensure that you have everything you need for the most important day of your life.
“Michaela was the most amazing celebrant. She took it upon herself to research some beautiful rituals to use in our wedding such as a handfasting ceremony as she knew our day was on the non-traditional side. She also chose some beautiful poems and quotes that fitted us and the day perfectly. We can’t thank her enough!”

“My parents were married in Sydney 50 years ago so it was lovely for them to be able to renew their vows five decades later in front of family at a park in Perth.
Michaela sat down with Mum and Dad before the ceremony to capture their story. The ceremony included their favourite music and a chance to “re-tie the knot”. Michaela even presented them with a commemorative certificate. Michaela’s style is friendly and inclusive and made my parents day extra special. I highly recommend her for couples wanting to get married all over again!”

Funerals with Michaela
Saying goodbye can be hard at the best of times but a funeral can be heartbreaking.
I can create a service for your loved one which honours their journey.
Choosing the right elements for a funeral or memorial service is paramount. Whether it’s music or a reading, I can give your choices meaning.
I always ask for a loved one’s favourite colour - even if I just wear a simple buttonhole as a tribute.
“Michaela was an amazing celebrant. She guided us through the difficult process with so much love and support. Michaela's relaxed approach made our day so personal and beautiful even with a hint of humour that would have made my Dad so proud.”

“Our family could not thank Michaela enough for stepping in the day before my niece’s funeral service when the celebrant we had organised was unable to be there. As you can imagine, this was extremely upsetting and stressful for our family however Michaela took the time to video call us the night before the service and we immediately felt reassured and comfortable that we were with the right person for us. Michaela stayed up until late that night finalising the service so that the day for our beautiful girl was perfect, and it was. She is extremely caring and professional and we are eternally grateful to her.”
