Dallas McMaugh JP Civil Marriage Celebrant 

My philosophy "Love one another and you will be happy. It's as simple and as difficult as that. There is no other way. Amen" Michael Leunig

More about me: I am a professional marriage celebrant and have performed hundreds of wedding ceremonies on the South Coast of NSW - a great place to combine the ceremony and honeymoon! I cover a lot of the waterfront, from Kiama to Mollymook, all the bits in between and often a bit beyond! My main focus as a celebrant is helping you make your wedding a meaningful and memorable occasion and working with you to create the perfect ceremony for you. Ritual and ceremony aren't often a part of everyday life and  finding the right words for such a major commitment can be a little daunting. The feedback I get most from couples is that I make them feel relaxed - not a bad thing considering even the smallest wedding seems to entail a bit of stress.I  bring a varied background to my work as a celebrant. I have worked with the Australia Council for the Arts, in Public Relations and Events (including weddings) at the Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens and as co-ordinator of Writers in the Park at the legendary Harold Park Hotel . I have a Communications degree and more than 25 years experience as a professional writer. I have had poetry and short stories published in major literary journals, written and performed in plays and contributed articles to magazines as diverse as Harper's Bazaar and On the Street. I've written speeches for CEO's and politicians, advertising copy, monthly columns for Dolly and Girlfriend and music and theatre reviews for Drum Media - so if you think you may be at a loss when it comes to putting your feelings into words for your wedding ceremony I'll be there to assist.
