Date: March 2009
Publisher: Pennon Publishing

This book is the result of fourteen years experience as one of Australia’s leading civil celebrants. It contains a wealth of information that is immediately useful for practising celebrants and for those planning or studying to be a celebrant.
Ceremony has the capacity to unify and heal. Being a successful celebrant requires having a rare blend of business sense, professionalism and a genuine emotional bond with those needing your services.

Sally shows with insight, compassion and a business like approach, how to develop these qualities. Sally offers very specific, practical, step-by- step examples of how to conduct weddings, funerals and other ceremonies.

By Melbourne celebrant and poet Ruth Van Gramberg.

COPYRIGHT permission given for use in civil ceremonies and one memento copy of ceremony per client.

Collection of poetry for all occasions. In PDF and Word format only.

`Little Pebbles and Stepping Stones' is another excellent collection of poems from the hand of Ruth Van Gramberg and contains writings covering weddings, funerals, name-givings and ceremony generally, in a quality presentation.

The book is an inspiration and excellent reference text in an area which is devoid of many quality publications of poetry for celebrants, couples, families and the general public involved in the preparation of ceremonies.

By Victoria Celebrant Pamela Adams

Part 1 is about her experiences with her own animals, focusing on what they came to teach and the lessons she has learned and continues to learn and also some who have returned to her.

Part 2 covers experiences she has had with other people’s companions through animal communication and also has instances of survival of their souls and reincarnation.

 

Part 3 covers caring for ourselves and our animals as they reach the end of their earthly lives; grieving well through the loss and how we can help ourselves to heal and move on. It also includes a Memorial Ceremony for Companion Animals.

By Celebrant and Educator Maggie Dent
