In turn, the family will express blessings for the newlyweds as they start their marriage as husband and wife. The tea ceremony also symbolises that the bride and the groom officially belong into a new, extended family.

Multilingual Civil celebrant / interpreter/ translator (who travels!)

Weddings are wonderful occasions that bring people together, especially two families and sometimes even two different cultures. But it is difficult to accomplish a sense of unity if half the crowd has no idea what is going on in your wedding! Your guests who took the time to attend your wedding should be able to have the pleasure of enjoying all the romantic sentiments of the wedding ceremony with the bride and groom.
Jenny is experienced in working alongside with religious or civil celebrants, to translate and host the full or selective part of the ceremony and coordinate the guests for the formalities from entrance to the group photo moments. She ensures the smoothness and harmony of your wedding ceremony, a true unity of the two.
