Cathy’s warmth, humor, and professionalism makes her the perfect celebrant!

We absolutely loved having Cathy as our wedding celebrant. Cathy’s warmth, humor, and ability to deal with unexpected events made it enjoyable for all. The Dutch and English traditions were blended perfectly. Also her professionalism and extensive preparation were really helpful and we enjoyed those moments together leading up to our big day. We noticed Cathy really loves her job and takes it very seriously. We would recommend her 10/10!

Commitment Ceremony

We couldn’t have been happier with the ceremony that Cathy organised and performed for us. We wanted a low key commitment ceremony just for close family and it really was special. She made it personal to us and included some funny stories and anecdotes. She really took the time to understand our story and why we wanted this ceremony and it all came together brilliantly on the day. The guests also commented on how at ease Cathy made everyone feel!

We would definitely recommend Cathy as a Celebrant to anyone needing one.

Couldn't recommend more!

I have absolutely no regrets about hiring Cathy as our Celebrant.

We were after a low key, non-fussy but still heartfelt service and she heard us completely.

She went above and beyond at every step. She used her wedding experience to make sure we'd thought of everything, calmed us both down on the day, even went for a venue visit with the coordinator without being asked.

The speech she wrote was beautiful and everyone commented on how good the ceremony was. She even gave us a couple of keepsakes which was a lovely touch.

I've never used a celebrant before but I cant imagine what more you could want.
