About Ron Nauta

Commonwealth Registered Authorised Celebrant

Creating Ceremonies with Heart

Hello, I’m Ron Nauta, and I’m honoured to serve as a Commonwealth Registered Authorised Celebrant in the Geelong, Bellarine, Surf Coast regions and beyond.

I believe that every person has a unique story worth telling. Whether it’s a life filled with adventure, quiet moments of kindness, of family love, or a legacy of a strong faith, I’m here to ensure that story is told with dignity, respect, and authenticity.

During one of life’s most difficult times, my commitment is to listen carefully to your memories and wishes, and to craft a ceremony that brings comfort whilst honouring the person you’ve lost.

My Approach

Personal & Thoughtful

I meet with families to hear their stories, understand their loved one’s personality, and discuss what matters most to them for the ceremony.

Respectful of All Traditions

I respect all cultures and traditions and will create a service that aligns with your personal unique values, culture and traditions.

Professional & Supportive

I handle all aspects of the ceremony with professionalism whilst providing compassionate support during this emotional time.

Flexible & Accommodating

Every family’s needs are different. I work with you to create a ceremony that suits your specific requirements and timeline.

Experience & Qualifications

With 25 years as a Christian minister of religion and now as a Commonwealth Registered Authorised Celebrant, I have the experience and training to conduct meaningful ceremonies that honour your loved one’s life.

What Guides My Work

Compassion: In my ministry as a Christian minister and as a believer I understand the pain of loss and aim to provide gentle support.

Authenticity: Creating ceremonies that genuinely reflect the person being honoured

Respect: Honouring all cultures, traditions and personal preferences

Excellence: Delivering professional, well-prepared ceremonies every time

Presence: Being fully present and supportive during this important moment
