ABOUT LEE PEARSE
You could say life is like a book; there is a beginning and an ending with many chapters in between. We all have our life stories and yours and your loved ones are unique to you and can belong to no other. I believe ceremony to be an important part of our lives and together they help us weave our way through our life stories with rhythm and grace.
Being a celebrant affords me the great honour and joy of being a co-creator with you in facilitating ceremonies that are authentic to the chapter in life that you and your loved ones are up to. A ceremony to declare publicly your love and commitment for another, to farewell a loved one, to welcome a new baby, and the many other chapters and significant life events that can be enriched by ceremonies.
Personally, ceremony has been a big part of my life; milestone birthdays, a wedding on the banks of the Murrumbidgee with family and friends and ceremonies to farewell and honour the life of a loved one. All of them helping me to move into my next chapter.
I am a naturally warm and engaging person and I genuinely am curious about and fascinated by the lives we lead and the stories therein. People tell me I’m a good listener and therefore together we can create what is right for each individual ceremony. I’m told I have an ability to balance the joy or solemnity of a ceremony with ease and it is important to me that I can be a calming presence when the significance of a big life event can be nerve wracking. I am well organised and well prepared so that you can relax and know everything is in place.
I am well situated to cover large areas of Central Victoria and am more than happy to travel. I live half an hour from Daylesford, Castlemaine and Maldon, two hours from Melbourne, one hour from Bendigo and 50 minutes from Ballarat.
Let’s get together for a meet and greet at no cost to you to see if we are the right fit for each other. We can meet in person or we can choose to use Face Time, Zoom, Skype etc. if more convenient.
Thank you. A million times thank YOU, for being such a beautiful part of our special day. You truly were beyond fantastic, not only on our wedding day but also throughout the whole process. We both really appreciated your calm energy, and your guidance through a very exciting but let's be honest nerve-wracking time! You allowed us to celebrate our day, in our way. Anyone who witnessed our ceremony, could have easily mistaken you for a dear family friend who had watched us and seen us fall in love over the past 7 years.. You were so invested, and moved by our love and happiness.
Rhiannon & Ricki
We are thrilled with the entire wedding celebration. You nurtured us through all the lead-up preparations. And on the day you were superb. You brought such dignity and reverence to the ceremony alongside your naturalness and humour. The ceremony felt just right.
Our friends have remarked on your lovely energy and the specialness you brought to the ceremony.
Diane & Nikki
We couldn’t have been happier with our experience with Lee as a celebrant. She was warm, thoughtful and friendly as well as being incredibly down to earth. She calmly guided us through the whole process and made it all really enjoyable, allowing us to create a personal ceremony which truly reflected us a couple. If you’re looking for a celebrant who is vibrant, fun and thoughtful, then Lee and her beautiful nature are just what you’re after.
Will & Sally
Lee Pearse was a brilliant celebrant. As this was Lee’s first same sex marriage, and ours, she was extremely professional and helpful in finding out legalities and details that we needed to know such as what terms can be used in various parts of the legal aspects of the ceremony. Lee from the outset was both helpful in providing us with ideas around where to begin and ultimately flexible in responding to our pace at developing a ceremony that felt right for us. She gave us the time to work through the ideas we would come up with and always took the stance that this was our ceremony and that she was there to help facilitate that. Most of all Lee exuded a real warmth and engagement with us and our guests. She has a beautiful calm, eloquent and poised demeanour while also being fun and attuned to the vibe of our ceremony. Many guests commented on what a great job Lee did and how relaxed and at ease she was which of course helped calm any nerves we had.
Chris & Annie
Lee was such a supportive and thoughtful celebrant for our wedding. She made every effort to get to know us well, provided great recommendations and made our day really special and enjoyable.
Adrian and Craig
Lee was a dream. She listened to us and was so easy to work with, making sure that our ceremony reflected who we are as a couple and what we wanted. At our ceremony she was professional and eloquent, but also warm and funny. Lee was well prepared, organised and made extra effort to pronounce some difficult names correctly. Thank you, Lee. We’re so glad you were a part of our day.
