NSW - Sydney - City Celebrants » Celebrant Page

With more than 15 years experience as an authorised civil marriage celebrant, I've performed thousands of ceremonies. As well as wedding ceremonies, I also offer name-giving ceremonies, commitment ceremonies and renewal of vows ceremonies. I take great pride in my work as a celebrant and I make sure that each and every ceremony is both a truly personal and professional event.

My aim is to make sure that you have the ceremony you want - formal or informal, sophisticated or simple. I can give you suggestions from a range of traditional ceremonies or I can tailor an individual and unique ceremony for you. I also perform ceremonies with a particular theme. Together we can create one that is right for you.

Based in Sydney and on the Central Coast, I can give you advice about locations  - on land or at sea, because I am also a Ship Captain. There are many stunning outdoor wedding ceremony venues to choose from - such as harbourside parks and gardens, restaurants, historic houses and function venues. Of course, you might prefer a more intimate venue, like a private home or garden.

A ceremony marks and celebrates a very significant event in your life, so I urge you to find the civil celebrant that you feel most comfortable and happy with.

Please feel free to contact me for an obligation-free meeting to discuss the ceremony you are planning.  Mobile:  (+61) 0414 251 626   Email:  russell@russellhansen.com.au

Mick & Tina...
We just wanted to thank you for making our night a memorable one.  We knew what was coming but wasn't sure how it would be received. You were the highlight of our night & we also mentioned you in our speeches. Everyone commented how good you were by making everyone relax including ourselves and allowing everyone to focus on the occasion. We had many comments about how the marriage was conducted & many said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. It just shows that you don't need a big, expensive wedding for it to be an eventful one. Just having the right marriage celebrant was all we needed and it flowed on into our speeches. If we had our day again, we would not change anything.

Elissa & Alaster...
Thanks so much for making our wedding ceremony last month really fantastic. Your humour and relaxed attitude made the whole thing extremely enjoyable for both us and our guests and, not surprisingly, we've had many comments reflecting that. You are by far the best celebrate we've seen in action and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend to you to anyone (and everyone!)...
