About Jessica Edwards Celebrant
Jessica Edwards is a civil marriage celebrant based on the Mornington Peninsula who has been marrying couples since 2012. She sees the ceremony as the moment the whole celebration starts, so she puts real time into getting to know each couple before writing a word. The process begins with a meeting to talk through ideas, worries and the options available. From there Jess works with the couple through follow-up meetings, phone calls and emails, so the script reflects how they met, what they love about each other and the people who matter to them. Ceremonies can be as traditional or as casual as the couple likes. Past weddings have included rose exchanges between grandparents, readings from parents and siblings, candles for absent family members and bridal parties made up of brothers and sisters. She offers three ways to marry. The full package covers a custom ceremony script, everything on the day and the legal paperwork, while the micro wedding option suits a short ceremony with only the closest people there. For couples who simply want to make it official, a legals-only ceremony needs just the couple, two witnesses and Jess. In every case she explains the legal requirements and takes care of them.
