Meet Our Team

Introducing your official party-starter and our Founder, Tara!

Tara (she/her) is one who tells a story. She is a love enthusiast with a mind full of stars. She is an overachieving procrastinator, a mum, a nurse and a fierce female who genuinely believes in less is more. She eloped with her main man and can absolutely appreciate the simplicity of a registry-style, on the steps of city hall, all about you and me kinda nuptials.

Working as a nurse for 20 years, her ability to genuinely connect with people and cut through the BS are skills she has finessed. She became a celebrant 8 years ago and brings her upbeat warmth and sheer joy to the table. She has a love for all things vintage and jazzy and has fallen in lust with the mesmerising art deco Creighton’s building and the magic of The Parlour. She also has an appreciation for a bit of dirty grunge and urban graff, the street and the true beauty of rough diamonds - she welcomes you all, City Hall Registry is open for everyone.
