hi, i'm tara, a melbourne wedding celebrant

I’ve been a bridesmaid three times, married twice (a wedding in Australia and then another celebration in my husband’s home country of Turkey), I’ve thrown three decently decadent hens parties and I’ve attempted, but ultimately failed to put back together a malfunctioning bouquet.

My real talent shined when it came to writing and delivering two wedding toasts, a ceremony reading and my own wedding speech. I’ve helped friends and family with wedding vows, created and delivered speeches, and original readings and I loved seeing those words bring smiles, laughter and sometimes tears to the eyes of their guests, I just knew I found my passion and it wasn't long before I made the decision to turn this passion into a career and become a celebrant.

I love public speaking, I love spending hours coming up with that one line in your ceremony that creates that “awwwww” moment, and ultimately creating a ceremony that reflects your story. I am truly blessed to meet people at their happiest and to share in one of the biggest moments in their life but also help people grieve and celebrate the lives of loved ones.

My name is Tara and welcome to Taramade Ceremonies. Please have a look through my site for more information on the services I offer. Feel free to get in touch, I’d love to hear about your story and how I can contribute to your ceremony.
