Hi, I'm Rita

Hi I’m Rita
Your alternative wedding and family celebrant for all who seek something a little different,
for weddings, renewal of vows, naming ceremonies and for all of life’s great moments you may want to celebrate.
I am based in London UK and Sydney Australia with interests in alternative music, dance, art, film, theatre and travel which allows me to use my artistic licence to design a ceremony for any occasion.
Ceremonies that are alternative, themed, creative, unconventional yet meaningful and stamped with your own personality .
As each relationship is unique, my aim is to bring something extra special for you with a personalised ceremony limited only by your imagination.

What's my ceremony style?

Alternative ceremonies on the unconventional side.
Specialising in Handfasting, Unity Ceremonies with many more symbolic rituals, elements and customs.
To make your ceremony personal, memorable and interesting, you may opt for a different theme, such as rock a billy, steam punk, gothic, dark romance, Hollywood glamour, art theme, rock n roll and circus are a few of the many themes you can have.
I always pay attention to detail and am adaptable to most situations…. like a Chameleon.
If you live in the UK and would like to have a legal marriage in Sydney, as an Authorised Marriage Celebrant for Australia I can make this happen.

Rita was a great support under quite challenging circumstances as restrictions set in during Covid 2020.
She made sure we had the most memorable wedding ceremony we could have, with everything running smoothly.
I would happily recommend Rita for your wedding day.

Renewal Of Vows | 09/30/2022 | The Drumming Snipe, Mayford, Woking, Surrey

We had a Brilliant Day, enjoyed by all who attended. Rita listened to our story of 42 years of marriage. From start to finish she listened to what we wanted & gently guided us so we had a ceremony that we were very comfortable with. Rita liaised with our chosen venue beforehand & on the day so all we had to do was sit back & enjoy it. Thank you Rita.

Wedding | 11/23/2019 | Camperdown, Sydney NSW

We hired Rita to conduct our wedding ceremony in November 2019. Rita was fantastic to work with and gave us a lot of great ideas of ways to personalise our ceremony, including which rituals to include and explained in detail the significance of each ritual.
She was also very helpful when it came to the rehearsal ceremony, she helped time the music etc. to make sure everything looked perfect and ran smoothly.
Overall we were extremely happy with her services and am glad to have had a guiding hand, who really knows their stuff to make our wedding day amazing!
