CELEBRATE WITH JILL 
I’m Jill Southee. I have the privilege of being in the lives of couples celebrating their most significant and heartfelt moments.

Choosing the right celebrant is an important decision, and I hope that as you explore my website and learn about the services I offer, you may feel I’m the right fit for your special day. I warmly welcome all cultures and celebrate all relationships.  ​

To put it simply, I love the work I do! As an experienced celebrant, I understand making decisions about what you want for your wedding may feel a bit overwhelming, but with me there to guide and or advise you on your ceremony, we can make it an easy process.

I approach each occasion with fresh enthusiasm and care, ensuring your story is beautifully told and authentically represented. My style is genuine, delivered with grace and a personal twist! 

Whatever form your celebration takes, it’s all about you and for you. This is the time to celebrate your love and friendship, your life vision and goals together, surrounded by the love of your families and friends, or just two witnesses.

​Some of my clients have this to say…

“Jill’s ability to step in and create a beautifully personalised ceremony was truly impressive.

Everybody loved the ceremony, and we had a blast.

She was kind and thoughtful and had lovely suggestions to help us build the perfect wedding. She was reassuring and radiated love.”
