Planning a big life event? Jill can lend a gentle hand.

Jill Player Cotton, Authorised Marriage Celebrant
Sydney and Sutherland Shire

My services

Weddings

I want your ceremony to be word perfect, and I want you to feel happy, relaxed, and secure; that you’re not going to need to worry about a thing.

Naming Days

Written for you however you would like - including a welcome, perhaps some readings or poems, an acknowledgement of any Godparents/Guardians and more. 

Funerals & Memorials

Conducted with dignity, gentleness and the understanding that there is no right or wrong at these times, simply what’s most appropriate for the bereaved.

About Jill

An accomplished writer and speaker who is articulate, thoughtful, warm and approachable. Jill is open to and respectful of all love, from all walks of life.

She has worn many different hats in her life (music teacher, performer, public relations consultant, writer) all of which bring a wealth of experience to her role as celebrant. Well traveled and open minded, Jill and her husband (Andrew, married since 1980!) have called New York, New Zealand, London, California and now Sydney’s Sutherland Shire home.

Kind words

  • "The perfect balance between organised and relaxed, with a great sense of humour. Jill made us feel relaxed on our special day and her attention to detail was impeccable."

    Katie and Gavin

  • If we could give a six-star rating we would, Jill was fantastic, professional, caring, nothing was a problem. The perfect celebrant.

    Wayne and Deidre

  • Jill made our day perfect. Such a beautiful soul inside and out. The ceremony was everything and more.
