Can Anyone Become an ICPC Member?

Working as a professional Civil Celebrant is exciting, rewarding, challenging and incredibly interesting. You get to play an important role in the most crucial milestones of people’s lives - funerals, marriages, baby naming and more. But being a Celebrant (or any independent, self employed person for that matter), can be lonely if you do not have the right network around you. 

If you are currently working as a Celebrant, or are at the start of your journey to becoming one, it’s important that you feel supported and well-connected in this industry so that you can enjoy it fully. Being part of a celebrant community will be so rewarding and helpful in your career.

That is one of the reasons why we created the International College of Professional Celebrants membership. This welcoming community of Celebrants offers advantages and perks compared to going-it-alone. Here are a few of them:
