For those of you who are not so confident in the legals, have not studied the legal component for some time, or have realised that your original training was not as good as you hoped - we spend an entire day going over the legal requirements. This then ensures you are up to date with the legal requirements and goes over all aspects to ensure you handle the legal component of every ceremony accurately and confidently.
We give you a 50 page legal manual along with other resources and spend the day going over all types of legal topics including over 20 common scenarios, and we completed the paperwork in class.

I enjoyed my day today, and feel as though the refresher course was reinforcing and informative. A good learning experience rating 10/10. Your manner and style of delivery was clear and precise and alleviated many queries. Thankyou

I have been a celebrant for six years and attended your legal refresher more out of interest than anything else. Boy was I shocked at how much I did not know. Thank you so much for setting me straight on so many things I was not taught in my training. The scenarios you took us through made sense, and you managed the group so effectively. I learnt so much and now feel very confident about my legal knowledge. KM - Melb Aug
I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how valuable your recent 'Legals Refresher Course' on 5th Nov. 2011, was to me.
I have been a registered celebrant for over 4 years and always had some anxiety regarding the both the interpretation and implications relating to various legal issues confronted by Celebrants. The whole day was full of practical and logical tips, it was extremely informative and inspiring. I valued your insight and approach in explaining everything so well. Thank you so much again Sally. I have come away feeling valued and thinking that I should have enrolled in your training sessions from the start. Joan A
I was so impressed with the course on Saturday. Even though I have been a celebrant for a number of years so many items were clarified for me during the day. It was thorough, well planned and you managed to test us without us realising! You gave us practical exercises to ensure we knew how to handle legal situations. You made a very difficult topic (LEGALS) such a delight to learn for an entire day - how did the day go so fast? Not a moment of boredom or time wasting and somehow you made it fun! You are truly an inspiration to so many celebrants around Aust. I had heard you were the best to go to, to find out about the law - but now I have first hand experience in your training. I will be lining up for your next course. Margaret - Melb Aug
