Celebrancy was established by the Australian Commonwealth Attorney General Lionel Murphy on July 19, 1973.

Some “radical” ideas for at the time which include:



• reversal of the control of wedding ceremonies as only the functions of the state or religious institutions;

• citizens could choose their own celebrant (not the state/church deciding);


• appointment of aborigines (who had only been counted as humans in the census some six years before);

• the appointment of women;

• appointment of young people (the first civil marriage celebrant was appointed at 26 years of age, a woman, Lois D'Arcy);

• celebrating the milestones of life was just as important for secular people as it was for religious people.

• culture matters

A “radical” Celebrant is ultimately on the side of the community officiating at secular ceremonies of substance, meaning and dignity mainly for non-church people.

Radical!

Requirements for travel are outlined in the service agreement which all parties must sign before a booking is confirmed.

Knowing the difference between an honorarium and a professional fee for service is helpful when determining which vendors to utilize for your event while also meeting the parameters of your budget.

With over 15 years experience creating and officiating custom ceremonies, all Services and/or Products offered by Humans Love Stories are in exchange for a professional fee. In order to utilize Humans Love Stories Services, a Service Agreement will be signed outlining Services and/or Product(s) requested and responsibilities of each party.

However, any Client (or guest for that matter) who feels a Service and/or Product(s) exceeded their expectations, may then choose to offer an honorarium, a voluntary payment given as a token of appreciation and gesture of goodwill, in addition to the professional fee previously paid for said Service and/or Product.

An honorarium is never expected when a fee-for-service is paid.
