About me

Hello!

I had been a teacher for 32 years when I was searching for a creative and challenging role that offered me a variety of experiences. Becoming a celebrant allowed me to have an opportunity for a flexible occupation that can fit in with teaching and my family.

I enjoy the process of meeting couples, getting to know them, writing a ceremony that uniquely reflects their love story, and officiating their special moment where they legally become life partners. I take pride in working with a couple on their ceremony and creating a space for celebration and personalisation.

You are about to embark on a very exciting adventure together for the rest of your lives! Your wedding, however, you choose to plan it, should be a celebration of your love for each other and it should reflect the values you share and the feelings you have for one another with the important people in your life. I can take care of the planning and legal requirements so that you can relax and enjoy your special day, celebrating your love.

Kay Cornett Celebrant

As an Authorised Civil Marriage Celebrant it is an absolute privilege to help prepare and guide couples through important moments in their life on and before their wedding ceremony. Honouring this space where you officially declare your vows and aspirations to each other, and where you breathe life as couple is an intimate and sacred moment in time.

I can guide and work closely with you to carefully craft and tailor a ceremony that reflects your journey and commitment as a couple with those that are dearest to you. It is essential that you feel comfortable and confident in your celebrant. I am a celebrant who is attentive, plans carefully, and will work with you to co-create and conduct a personal and unique marriage ceremony. You can relax on your special day and have a truly memorable and enjoyable ceremony.

I specialise in bespoke wedding ceremonies from traditional to contemporary, simple and informal, to the sophisticated occasion. I am highly professional and experienced in protocol. I custom Same Sex marriage ceremonies, Commitment Ceremonies, Vow Renewal Ceremonies, and Elopement. I can guarantee you warm professionalism and attention to detail to create your ceremony- your way. Whilst being based in beautiful Wollongong in NSW, I am able to travel to wedding destinations across Australia.
