Testimonials

The following are communications during 2009-10, mostly emails. Names are real.

All these past clients have agreed to provide references for me if required.

There is a blurry distinction between being a celebrant and a friend. I care deeply about my couples and feel so honoured to be chosen by them to celebrate their significant ceremonies. Most of my referrals are from friends and clients.

Everyone we have spoke to loved the ceremony. We'd be happy to recommend you to our venue. We both think that everything you did
prior to the day and on the day met with our expectations. You did a wonderful job and we appreciated all your input.


Claire and Adam

 

We had the most perfect day in every way and we cannot thank you enough for the large part you played in that. Your generous help and support during the preparation and planning stage was invaluable and your attention to detail in ensuring that our ceremony was just right for us was much appreciated. All present found the actual ceremony very intimate and moving. Your warmth and enthusiasm were contagious.

(Funeral) Thanks again for your great effort, especially at a time when we badly needed it. Made all the difference for what had to become a special day.

Thanks for the great ceremony that you did for us. We were all very happy! We had so much fun and I know our friends enjoyed the day.

Amber and Ben

Thank you so much for performing your duties as celebrant with such professionalism and warmth. With sincere thanks to you, the ceremony struck the perfect tone- solemn and fun at the same time!

Alina and Sean

Hamish and I want to thank you so very much for guiding us through the planning of our most perfect ceremony. You made such a difference and really helped us bring to life the wedding we'd dreamed of. We've had so many comments from our guests who have said this was one of the best ceremonies they had been to - Hamish and I had to disagree because for us this was obviously The Best! We really enjoyed every minute of it and are so thrilled we found you, as we've felt totally comfortable and well guided, especially in the absence of both sets of parents! It has been such a thrill to include so much of our personalities into the ceremony, we really didn't realise we could do it. So, thank you for making it possible.

Abi and Hamish

 

(Funeral) Thank you so much for what you did for our family. It was truly beautiful and I just know that my mother loved it.

Mike

 

I just wanted to say a big thank you for the wonderful wedding ceremony. Despite initial concerns from our parents about our 'not so traditional' wedding, both sets of parents were very impressed with the end result. Not to mention all the compliments from our guests. Thanks to you, I think we have now set the standard on what 'a great ceremony' should be. Thank you again.

Thanks for a great ceremony. You can't believe how many people rang and told me that it was the best wedding ever... and we received lots of cards during the week saying the same thing.
