Welcome to Circles of Blessing - Marriage & General Celebrant

We specialise in co-creating meaningful ceremonies for contemporary people.

Circles of Blessing - Bringing people closer together

Throughout time, ceremony has been a fundamental building block of human culture. No more than two or three generations back, all of us have ancestors for whom ceremony was an integral part of family and community life. Today, when we co-create ceremony to mark and celebrate the changes that time brings to all of our lives, we have an enormously rich world heritage to draw on for inspiration, and the freedom to creatively compose our ceremonies however we choose.

Crafting a ceremony that brings together inspirations ancient and modern to give expression to your personal sense of the spiritual is our passion and our pleasure.

Whether you are looking for a beautifully scripted formal ceremony, such as a wedding, handfasting, commitment or naming ceremony...   Or whether you wish to engage an intimate circle of family and friends in the more free-flowing process of a blessing circle...
     Perth celebrant Ishara de Garis will help you weave together symbolic and ritual elements to co-create an enjoyable and uplifting experience for both you and your guests.

There is no need to feel as though you are an actor in a play written and directed by someone else.

With Ishara's help you will co-create a wedding, handfasting or blessing ceremony that fits you and your new family like a dream - so you can relax and let go into the felt experience of your special day, quietly assured that you will be receiving lots of compliments from your guests about what a lovely wedding or blessing or naming ceremony it was. Because your ceremony truly will be an authentic expression of who you are.

Choose Ishara as your celebrant if you want:-

  • a relaxed, comfortable process that is respectful of your own beliefs and values;
  • to be listened to and know that your needs and ideas will be taken seriously;
  • the opportunity to explore symbolic rituals and traditions which can add colour and meaning to your ceremony;
  • a celebrant who can hold a sense of the sacred, if feels that appropriate to who you are, without becoming unduly stiff and formal;
  • the option to write or choose your own words (eg. wedding vows) should you so desire;
  • a local area discount for ceremonies held within the cities of Cockburn, Fremantle, Melville, Mosman Park or the towns of East Fremantle and Cottesloe/Peppermint Grove..

I will work with you to co-create a ceremony which

  • gives expression to your own heart-felt truth
  • honours the life-journey that you are on and the person you are becoming
  • draws upon timeless human traditions for the symbols and rituals which lend it power
  • amplifies feelings of love, gratitude, connection, commitment and dedication
  • touches and lifts the spirits of all who gather to witness and participate in it.

A well-designed ceremony is like a compass
that helps you get your bearings in the changing terrain of life
so that you can step forward into your future with confidence and grace.

If you are looking for a civil celebrant in a formal cream suit, you may want to try elsewhere.

On the other hand, if you would like a ceremony that is a little bit different, enjoyable, memorable and totally you - then you will want to talk to Ishara about your plans.
