Wedding Celebrant on the Mornington Peninsula
Celebrant Services for Weddings
Whether you're saying your vows barefoot on the sand at Blairgowrie, toasting beneath the vines at Red Hill, or exchanging rings at a clifftop lookout in Sorrento, Amanda Morgan is the wedding celebrant Mornington Peninsula couples turn to for a ceremony that actually feels like theirs. Born and raised on the Peninsula, Amanda brings 29 years of life experience and a genuine, local connection to this part of Victoria to every ceremony she writes.
Personalised Wedding Ceremonies, Written From Scratch
No two couples are the same, and no two ceremonies should be either. As a marriage celebrant Mornington Peninsula couples describe as warm and easy to work with, Amanda takes the time to properly get to know you both before she writes a single word. Every ceremony script is fully original — never a template — and built around your story, your humour and the tone you want your guests to feel.
Amanda is also happy to be as hands-on as you'd like in the lead-up, from talking through venue options to helping you shape your own vows if you're finding that part tricky.

A Celebrant Who Welcomes Every Couple
If you've had trouble finding a celebrant who truly welcomes every couple, you're in the right place. Amanda is proudly LGBTQ+ affirming and open-minded about faith, culture and family structure — every couple is given the same care, respect and creative attention, regardless of background.
Local Knowledge From Someone Born and Bred on the Peninsula
Amanda isn't a fly-in-fly-out celebrant — she grew up here. That local knowledge means practical help choosing a ceremony spot, whether you've got your heart set on a vineyard at Red Hill, a clifftop at Point Nepean, a garden at Mount Martha, or a quiet beach at Flinders. It also means Amanda understands the logistics of Peninsula weddings: tide times, wind on exposed lookouts, and which venues need a backup wet-weather plan.
Amanda provides wedding celebrant services right across the region, including:
Use Heat Styling Responsibly
05
When blow-drying, begin by drying the extension bonds and surrounding natural hair using a low to medium heat setting before styling as desired.
To protect the integrity of the hair, never use hot tools exceeding 200°C (392°F). Consistent heat protection will help maintain softness, shine, and longevity.
Protect Your Hair While Swimming
08
Chlorine, salt water, and prolonged moisture exposure can affect the condition of your extensions.
If you swim regularly, wearing a swimming cap is highly recommended. While it may not be the most glamorous accessory, it is one of the most effective ways to protect your investment and extend the lifespan of your hair.
