Hello and Welcome...

My name is Aphrodite Anderson and I am an authorised Civil Marriage Celebrant based in Cairns, Tropical North Queensland, a stunning environment with palm fringed beaches, lush rainforests and romantic chapels overlooking the Coral Sea. I am available to perform Weddings, Commitment Ceremonies, Renewal of Vows and Naming Ceremonies from Cairns to Port Douglas.

Palm Cove is one of the top destinations for beach weddings in Australia and is an idyllic location for elopements and intimate ceremonies. Early morning ceremonies offer a serenity that is simply breathtaking as the ocean is calm and all you hear is the gentle lapping of the waves.

As a full time Marriage Celebrant, I take pride in my work, creating personalised ceremonies that are modern, fresh and heartfelt. I love being able to provide exactly what my couples want and know they appreciate my advice and guidance. I have a wonderful selection of vows, readings and symbolic ceremonies to assist you in choosing parts that truly reflect your personality and tastes.

If you are travelling alone, I will organize two witnesses for you, if you are from overseas and require formal registration, I will apply on your behalf for your Official Certificate of Marriage and Apostille stamp.

I speak Greek and French and can phonetically read several other languages, so if you have family who do not speak English, I am happy to say a few words in their language. I have done this on many occasions to their surprise and delight, adding a unique cultural touch to your ceremony.

Whether you are planning an elopement, intimate ceremony or large extravagant celebration, my commitment to you and attention to detail remain the same to ensure your wedding is everything you ever dreamed of.

I offer you....

• Legal documentation with Births, Deaths & Marriages
• Application on your behalf of official Certificate of Marriage
• Provision of extensive Ceremony Resource Folder
• Ceremony Rehearsal as required or pre-ceremony meeting
• Presentation Certificate & copy of Ceremony as keepsake
• Beautifully covered signing table/chair & selection of pens
• Pearl ring tray or cushion, candle lantern & silk flower bouquet
• PA system available for playing your choice of wedding music
• Referrals and assistance for all your Ceremony requirements
• A bottle of Australian sparkling wine for champagne toast
