Victoria Graham
Journalist. Broadcaster. Celebrant.
​
I became a journalist because I love a good story, but it wasn't until I became a Celebrant that I got to tell so many.
From a 96-year-old woman who played a vital role during World War II, to a bright young man who succumbed to drink and drugs, and an international model who fell in love with an agent - the stories you come across are diverse, fascinating and unique.
​
It’s all about people – if you love chatting, that’s a great start – but it wasn’t until I trained to become a Celebrant that I realised the role involved so much more.
​
People are entrusting you with very precious possessions – their stories, memories, and emotions.
​
Whether it’s a personal recollection, the story of a loved one who may have passed away, or a passion and love a couple want to share on one of the most special days of their life, you are the person they are sharing those possessions with, and with that comes great responsibility.
​
You see being a Celebrant you are the researcher, the writer and the narrator of people’s lives – whether at the beginning, middle or end of their journey. But you are also a mentor, a confidant, and a shoulder to cry on.
​
Some days you will be inspired, others you will sob – no two days are the same, but you are never alone.
​
Since training with Jacqueline I have not only made a friend but also gained the most incredible mentor. The guidance she constantly offers has given me the confidence to conduct hundreds of weddings and funerals across the southwest – bringing comfort, happiness, tears and laughter to families and couples from all walks of life.
​
So if you love life, love people, and love a celebration – why not become a celebrant?
