“Sally was such a lovely presence at our wedding ceremony. She was considerate, generous with her time, and patient through the planning and organising, most of which needed to be via zoom due to restrictions. We had no idea what a ceremony should entail and Sally's guidance led us to something so personal and special for us. Thank you, Sally!” — Sian.

Sally is so friendly, easy to talk to and lovely. It felt like we’d known her for ages so we were so appreciative to have her there on our special day. She’s never made us feel rushed or left us in the dark with any of the process. We were really lucky to have Sally as she brought together such a beautiful ceremony for us that we will always remember.

Natalie B.

Celebrant Sally Hayes

Thank you so much, it was such a pleasure to marry you both at such a beautiful place on a magic day!

August 2022

Sally was absolutely perfect! She was recommended to us by a friend and she was so understanding of our situation. She handled everything and her communication was amazing. She even referred us a photographer to use on the day! We were very lucky to have Sally - especially that our wedding was during COVID. Only a couple of days before the wedding, restrictions were lifted and we were allowed to have our 100 guests. Thank you Sally!

Thank you so much, it was a beautiful day and I was so grateful to be there for you both xx

There are not enough words to express how wonderful Sally was. An integral and special part of our day that we will never forget!

Matilda D.

Celebrant Sally Hayes

I agree words are not enough. It's not very often people come into your journey of life that leave such a positive effect on you but Matilda and Robert did that for me, two gorgeous souls I was so lucky to be there for on their special day xx

April 2024

Sally is an absolute delight! From our initial conversation up through our (elopement) wedding day, Sally was always so warm and friendly, yet incredibly professional. She wrote our story and delivered it like a fairy tale on the day - even though the weather was wild with strong winds and rain on a remote beach on the Great Ocean Road. We cannot thank her enough for being so accommodating throughout this entire process. You can't go wrong choosing Sally as your celebrant!

We could not be happier with our celebrant Sally Hayes. She really made our special day perfect. Sally had such thoughtful, beautiful ideas to include my 7 year old daughter into our ceremony. She suggested and assisted us to write a vow for her and included our guests in the ceremony also. I have had so many guests comment on how wonderful the ceremony was. Sally is amazing thank you so so much - Beck, James and Ivy xx
