young, modern, creative celebrant

NAT SHILLINGTON, CELEBRANT
ABOUT ME
Firstly Congratulations!
I’m Nat, a young, energetic civil marriage celebrant based in Orange, NSW.
I understand that today, couples want a modern, creative yet relaxed ceremony full of love, happiness, friends, family and laughter. It’s exactly what I wanted for my own wedding day.
In my opinion your wedding ceremony should be just as fun, and memorable as your wedding reception. Your wedding ceremony sets the precedence for your entire day!
I love to create ceremonies that are truly tailored to each individual couple – reflecting their ideas and personalities. I make every effort to include family and friends in your ceremony, wherever possible. Working together, we crystallise your ideas and with some guidance, advice and support, we create your dream ceremony.
I started as a celebrant marrying some of my best friends. You may argue that would make it easier… however, knowing I would see them forever certainly warranted me doing an exceptional job. Their feedback in addition to that from family and friends validated my decision to marry happy, like-minded people within Orange and the Central West community.
My wedding was only five years ago. I recall the wealth of ideas and suggestions, the happiness and craziness involved in getting married! I will ensure your ceremony is as stress-free as possible so you can enjoy the build-up to your special day and treasure what will be one of the most memorable days of your life.
