About Sue Anne – The Celebrant by Your Side™
Hello and welcome. My name is Sue Anne, and I am honoured to be known as ‘The Celebrant by Your Side.’
I am honoured to be a celebrant and Legal Wedding Solemniser with Earth Spiritualist Foundation writing and celebrating ceremonies through kindness, non judgement, respect and Joy ensuring your particular ceremony reflects you, your love, your relationship in the ways that are meaningful to you.
From our very first conversation to the day of your ceremony, I am here to listen, to support, and to gently guide you through every step of the journey.
My ceremonies are never ‘one-size-fits-all.’ Instead, they are woven with care, meaning, and compassion, so that each person feels truly seen, valued, and celebrated. This is why I do what I do, and it is my privilege to walk beside you.
I became a celebrant following one of life’s most profound losses. When my husband and I lost our 19-yr old son Adam in a car accident in 2014, our world changed forever. In the years that followed, I realised how deeply important it is to honour life’s moments, whether joyous or sorrowful, in a way that feels true, personal, and filled with love. That is why it is so important to me to ensure as much as is humanly possible that, every ceremony I craft is designed around you, your story, your loved ones, and your values.
I bring professionalism, warmth, and compassion to each ceremony I create. Whether it’s a wedding, a baby naming, or a farewell, I ensure it reflects the individuality, personality, and wishes of those at its heart.
For me, being a celebrant is not simply a role, it is a vocation, one rooted in love, understanding, and respect for the unique journey of every person and family I meet.
Some of my Training & Experience includes:
• Legal Wedding Solemniser, with Earth Spiritualist Foundation
• Holistic Funeral & Family Celebrant
• Associate Member of IAFD

• SPHE Facilitator (HDip)

As your celebrant, I bring not only experience, but also empathy, openness, and deep respect.
