This comprehensive Handbook by Ruth Van Gramberg, published under the auspices of Australian Marriage Celebrants Inc., contains valuable data on mandatory legalities, copyright, structure and procedures. It is an incredibly helpful resource, rich in ideas with easy to follow suggestions incorporating symbolism, poetry and techniques for celebrating life’s important milestones.
Ceremonies, rites of passage and rituals of various kinds are the stuff of life. They are the measure points of our culture and every culture. We have so many events in our lives, sometimes we don’t even notice them, but as Antoine de St Exupery says – ‘they make one day different from other days, one hour from other hours’. – Dally Messenger III
A civil marriage ceremony provides freedom of expression, which can be finetuned and personalised to suit any individual’s preferences for their ceremony. With this freedom comes a great responsibility for celebrants. In The Practical Handbook for Celebrants to Welcome, Celebrate and Farewell, Ruth Van Gramberg and Australian Marriage Celebrants provide detailed information on everything a celebrant needs to fulfill their primary creative challenge: to provide guidance, advice and especially resources, to help make each ceremony unique to each person or couple.
Informative, comprehensive and above all, practical this handbook is the essential reference for the professional celebrant. As well as providing creative guidance, it includes simple information on the many legal requirements and processes that celebrants in Australia and New Zealand must adhere to for weddings, namings, funerals and many more ceremonies.
