Cherie Arrowsmith “Your day - your way”

I am from the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne and I live in the beautiful Yarra Valley but I am also based on the Mornington Peninsula so I am diverse when it comes to location. I have a wonderful supportive husband and together we have two children both independent and with wonderful married partners. We love dogs and have a German Shepherd (Astra, staunchly stubborn as a pup but has mellowed).

Myself, I am a happy, gentle soul, I like to surround myself with positive energy and negativity is always kept at bay. I have a background with people in Personal Support work with the Red Cross especially with the Black Saturday bushfires. I have great listening skills and pride myself in being able to capture the story of someone’s life, whether it be a couple’s love story or the life of a loved one. Your ceremony or service will be written with compassion, love and respect for who I am writing for. I am relatable, reliable and hands on which means I personalise your story to who you are .

Walking or out in the garden with my dog by my side is where I most like to be and this keeps me grounded.  We are very fortunate to have a great group of friends to socialise with, or just my husband and I like to discover places for a nice wine or coffee.

I pride myself in being able to represent the lives of my clients and write a ceremony that really celebrates their day with romance and fun.
