We knew we were in safe hands from day one
There’s only one word we'd use to describe Emma and everything about her: AMAZING.
From the moment we met Emma on an introductory video call, we knew she was the perfect celebrant for us. She’s incredibly warm, kind and genuinely invested in the couples she works with. She took the time to understand our vision and offered thoughtful ideas when we weren’t quite sure what we wanted ourselves.
From that very first conversation, we felt completely confident that we were in safe hands, and that feeling only grew throughout the entire process. Her communication and responsiveness were exceptional, and she was organised, prepared and professional from start to finish.
One thing that was particularly important to us was finding someone who could create a ceremony that was heartfelt and meaningful without feeling cheesy or overly jokey (which we know is exactly what some couples want, just not us!). Emma understood that immediately and absolutely nailed the tone. The ceremony felt so personal and completely “us”.
Although we'd finalised our script several weeks before the wedding, we unexpectedly needed to make a last-minute change just two days beforehand. Emma very kindly accommodated it without hesitation. We know this wasn't ideal, and we're incredibly grateful for her flexibility and generosity. It only reinforced how committed she is to making her couples feel comfortable and happy.
What stands out even more than the beautiful ceremony she wrote is Emma herself. On the wedding day, she had this wonderfully calming presence. Every time we saw her it felt like, "Ah... breathe." She instantly put us at ease.
My young nephew was our ring bearer, and she was fantastic with him, gently guiding him through exactly what to do and where to stand. At one point I completely blanked and forgot where I was supposed to stand and when to hand over my bouquet, but Emma calmly and discreetly guided me so everything felt completely seamless.
Our family and friends all commented afterwards on how lovely Emma was and how personal and meaningful the ceremony felt. They all felt like they knew us better afterwards, which is exactly what we had hoped for.
I genuinely can't think of a single constructive thing to say about Emma's service – and that's saying something, because I have very high standards! We feel incredibly lucky that she was available for our wedding. She made us feel so special, and by the end of the process she felt like someone we'd known for years.
We'd already spoken to several celebrants before meeting Emma, so we had a really good sense of what we were looking for. The difference with Emma was immediate.
If you're looking for a celebrant, do yourself a favour and have a chat with Emma. We can't recommend her highly enough.
