Amanda was great from start to finish! Made us very comfortable and made our ceremony very personal to us

We were looking for a celebrant for our beach wedding with hand fasting and exchange of rings. Jenny was in the right location for us, the 'Essex Sunshine Coast' and we liked her optimism about the weather! Great communication form the outset, we set a time and date for an online meet and went from there. Jenny asked us loads of simple questions, we were a bit awkward at first but soon relaxed into sharing our story. The first draft of Jenny's ceremony words soon arrived, we suggested a couple of really minor changes which Jenny was happy to facilitate. We really felt that she was putting us first, some other wedding experiences left us feeling a bit up sold, but not this experience. On the day Jenny and my husband met on the beach, she helped set up and welcome guests which was lovely. The ceremony was beautifully delivered, initial laughs from the guests made for great photos, and the hand fasting ceremony went without a hitch. I would really recommend Jenny, she's approachable and really knowledgeable, sharing advice where appropriate. She certainly made us feel at ease and in professional hands at all times!

Paul was lovely from our first phone call and all the way to the big day. He did really well to get to know both of our personalities through interview and questionnaire. Would highly recommend for wedding services!

From the very beginning, Karen was everything we could ever have hoped for in a wedding celebrant: professional, warm, incredibly helpful, and genuinely invested in making our wedding dreams come true. Her attention to detail was second to none, and she made our special day feel truly one in a million. What stood out most was how personal and unique our ceremony felt. Everyone we spoke to afterwards commented on how they had never been to a wedding so perfectly tailored to the couple, and that is entirely down to Karen. She took the time to really get to know us, understand our story, and weave every important element of our lives into the ceremony with such care and creativity. Our handfasting ceremony was unforgettable, complete with personalised links that reflected us perfectly, and colours we chose after Karen sent us a beautifully detailed explanation of their meanings. She seamlessly incorporated a touch of Star Wars for my husband, a heartfelt poem for those no longer with us, and natural, elemental touches that meant so much to me. Every moment felt intentional, thoughtful, and utterly perfect. And as if the ceremony itself wasn’t already more magical than we could have imagined, Karen then presented us with a wonderful keepsake box containing our vows, ceremony script, and handfasting ties—a beautiful reminder of a day we’ll cherish forever. We cannot recommend Karen highly enough. If you want a wedding that is truly individual, meaningful, and crafted with love and professionalism, Karen is the celebrant you need. She made our day unforgettable, and we are so grateful to her for everything she did to bring our vision to life.

Lucie is amazing from start to finish she caters to your needs. She really gets to know you as a couple/family enabling her to give the best story ok the big day. We love lucie and would 100% highly recommend her.

We couldn’t have been happier to have Catherine as our wedding celebrant. From our first interactions, Catherine eased our nerves around planning the wedding – she was consistently supportive and made the ceremony process uncomplicated; we knew would be in very safe hands. Catherine has a genuinely gentle and calming presence, which we particularly appreciated during those moments before the aisle walk, and when the ceremony began. Freddie appreciated her going through everything with him before the ceremony, and generally keeping him distracted and stabilised during a nerve-wracking and emotional time. Catherine’s delivery was poised, professional and clear as she delivered a wonderful storytelling-style script that detailed our lives together – through anecdotes that had everyone laughing out loud, poignant moments and shared experiences. Our guests commented on how lovely the ceremony was, and how brilliant a job Catherine had done to make it feel just like ‘us’. We couldn’t recommend her enough!

Patricia was our celebrant as we got married this year in December; words truly cannot comprehend how brilliant she was. She worked with us really closely to curate the perfect ceremony that captured what my love story had been with my wife thus far, and the execution of it was second to none. Every Zoom call with Patricia to design the ceremony was an enjoyable experience, and she even prompted us with questions that neither my wife and I had thought of! She truly worked hard to ensure that no small detail was missed, and it all amounted to a wedding day that so many of our guests said was one of the best they had ever been to. So many guests felt that the ceremony was intimate, and really captured the love that my wife and I have for each other, and that couldn't have done without Patricia. Patricia also was our MC, and she did such a professional yet joyful job of keeping the day on track and organised so that neither I or my wife had to run around worrying about anything - we were just able to enjoy the day and be in the moment. To say that Patricia was the perfect celebrant is an understatement - if we had to do the day all over again, there is no doubt that we would ask Patricia to conduct the day exactly the same way. Thank you so much for everything, and we would thoroughly recommend her. She's worth it! Nketia and Poppy

We couldn’t recommend Guy enough. From the moment we engaged with Guy he was professional, personable and he really takes time to get to know the type of event you are holding to ensure that it all runs smoothly. Blending two cultures can be tricky at times but the stress was completely taken away from us. Guy responds to all questions and queries in a wonderfully timely manner. We arragned to meet with us a few weeks before our wedding at the venue to discuss the finer details and he checked over our schedule and made a few suggestions to help our day to be even more perfect than we had imagined. Guy was on hand throughout our wedding reception with his incredibly calm demeanour. Thank you so much. Charlini and Andrew Sayer

Chris was incredible - the perfect person to be our celebrant on the big day. He was kind, thoughtful and so helpful throughout the entire process. Every zoom call we had prior to the wedding was fun and enjoyable, and Chris ran through everything multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed. The day went so smoothly and Chris really put us both at ease, he felt more like a friend than a celebrant, and it’s everything we wanted. We highly recommend Chris for your big day - he’ll make it so special and we can’t thank him enough!

Sheila was absolutely brilliant, her research and attention to detail was second to none. The personal touches she added to the ceremony and the friendly, fun way in which it was delivered whilst still being clear and professional was exactly what we were looking for. Nothing was too much trouble and her assistance with everything down to our personal vows and engagement with our guests was a massive factor in making our day so special.
