Marry Me Marilyn

Every one of our guests commented on how AMAZING Marry Me Marilyn was, how well she told our story, with guests commenting that they were on the edge of their seats invested in every word Marilyn was saying. We had guests say it was the Best Ceremony they have ever been to, and was just absolutely perfect, which we loved hearing but that is just a credit to Marilyn and how great she is! So if you want just an ordinary Celebrant, then Marilyn is not for you, Marilyn is far, far more than that! When we first came across Marilyn's website we thought she is exactly what we were after, and after our first meeting we knew we were right! Marilyn is more than a Celebrant, she is a love enthusiast, story teller, wedding coach and genuinely invested in you as a couple and our special day!

The ceremony was hands down my most favorite part of the whole day, which is crazy to me, given that walking down the aisle and standing up there in front of everyone was something that seemed so daunting to me. Once I got there I was just so happy and excited to be there it overcame any anxiety or worries I had and I just found your presence so calming and felt at ease that I didn’t have to think about anything because you were there to guide us and remind us to take all this in. We have had so many of our guests give us the most amazing feedback about the ceremony. People have been telling us how beautiful the ceremony was and how it was the perfect combination of funny and emotional and completely tailored to us and our story. Quite a few people that never thought they would cry ended up balling. People have also commented on yourself and how amazing your delivery was and that this was the most engaged they have ever felt in a ceremony. My mum was the one who told us the importance of having a good celebrant for the ceremony and she said that you were the best celebrant she’s had to pleasure of watching marry two people. Jacob and I feel so blessed to have found you and now have those memories of our beautiful ceremony forever! THANK-YOU!

We could not recommend Marilyn more, she did a Fantastic Job with our Wedding Ceremony. Marilyn took the time to personalise the ceremony so that it suited my bride and myself perfectly. Marilyn is extremely professional and does an amazing job especially with keeping you relaxed through the ceremony, her resources helped me so much to write my vows and the wooden box ceremony was perfect, thank you so much Marilyn. Marilyn was extremely helpful in making our day so special to us! She was easy to contact if I had questions and fast to respond. She made writing our ceremony a fun and easy process, allowing us to create a personalised ceremony that meant so much to my husband and I. Marilyn helped us with our nerves and completed an effective rehearsal of our ceremony with us that allowed us to feel confident and excited about this part of our wedding. She provided us with helpful advice and many pointers that we then used on the day of the wedding to make our ceremony run so smoothly. On the day she spoke beautifully, was dressed professionally and looked stunning and ran our ceremony amazingly! After searching through the many of Marilyn’s helpful resources, we decide to complete a wooden box ceremony on the day. Our guests commented on how beautiful our ceremony was with many of our guests saying they have never seen a wooden box ceremony before and what a beautiful touch it was. I was so full of nerves as I walked down the aisle that Marilyn was able to instantly calm me as she reminded me to stay in the present and enjoy this moment! Both my husband and I would highly recommend Marilyn services to anyone looking at getting married! We cannot thank Marilyn enough for making our day so memorable for us! Tegan & Bryce x

Thank you so much to Marilyn for being most amazing celebrant & for making our day feel so magical, so special, and so memorable. At the beginning of our wedding planning, we had booked to meet with 5 different celebrants. Marilyn was the first we met with and ended up booking her on the spot, she was everything we were looking for. Marilyn was so helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process all the way to our wedding day where she delivered us the most beautiful ceremony, fully personalised to suit us. Our guests loved our authentic ceremony and thought it was so beautiful. I would not hesitate to recommend Marilyn to anybody looking for an amazing celebrant. All our love Katie + James xx

Marilyn is honestly the most amazing celebrant, she had Justin and I laughing and smiling from the very first meeting we had. Not only did she help us create the most perfect ceremony but she helped us get through the nerves and worries of the day. She really makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. If anyone has trouble with nerves or public speaking, then please choose Marilyn because she knows exactly how to make the worries go away, to teach you how to be in the moment and to show you how even the imperfect parts of the wedding can make for the best memories. After the ceremony everyone told Justin and I how fun Marilyn was. Marilyn we can’t thank you enough!!

Knew exactly what we wanted an amazing viking wedding with drinking horns and handfasting and best of all exchanging of swords absolutely unique 😀

Marilyn is an amazing celebrant! She goes beyond expectations (and does more than what others in her field offer) to ensure her couples are ready for their big day. Marilyn brings with her a bank of great resources and knowledge, and really makes you feel like you’ve known her a life time. Thank you Marilyn for marrying us ❤️

Marilyn was absolutely great. It was important to us not to have a generic wedding. Marilyn heard our theme and ran with it! She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the marriage process before, during and after the wedding. Would recommend.

Trevor and I are so blessed to have had you as our celebrant. From the very first phone call right through to the ceremony, you have been an absolute delight to work with. Every process was easy and on Our Big Day we were super relaxed because you had taken the time to prepare us for what was happening. Trevor and I planned on having a relaxed bohemian vibe ceremony while integrating traditions that were important to us such as the hand fasting, and ensuring our boys were also a big part of the ceremony, and you delivered on it all! Our guests were delighted by all the special little touches, and everyone commented on how intimate the ceremony was. From the bottom of our hearts, we truly thank you Marilyn! Trevor and Sarah x

Marilyn took the time to get to know both of us prior to our Wedding. We felt very comfortable and could talk honestly about our journey together to getting married. She listened to everything we said and turned this into an incredible ceremony. From our initial meeting and getting to know us, to the countless emails she promptly replied to and editing our ceremony script every time we changed our mind on something. The private run through of what would happen on the day was a huge help. Honestly, we were surprised at the amount of guests who took their time to come and tell us how perfect the ceremony was. We absolutely adored our personal ceremony and wouldn't have wished to have had it any other way. Thank you so much Marilyn, you made our day just perfect. Robyn & Ethan

Right from the start Marilyn was friendly and welcoming. She worked with us to create a wonderful ceremony, both providing ideas and accepting criticisms. What was especially helpful was her candidness about what could be done during Covid, and she helped us create a backup plan in the case of a severe lock down. Luckily, the wedding day itself was restriction free and Marilyn welcomed all our friends and family with a warm smile. The ceremony was lovely, easy, and she made sure that me and my partner could completely enjoy the moment.

Marilyn was the most amazing celebrant ever! Marilyn was super flexible and accommodating around my husband's ever changing schedule which took a lot of stress out of our day. I would 100% recommend Marilyn to EVERYONE. She is simply AMAZING!!!

If you want just an ordinary Celebrant, then Marilyn is not for you, Marilyn is far, far more than that! When we first came across Marilyn's website we thought she is exactly what we were after, and after our first meeting we knew we were right! Marilyn is more than a Celebrant, she is a love enthusiast, story teller, wedding coach and genuinely invested in you as a couple and our special day! I had numerous back and forth conversations with Marilyn regarding so many things big and small (including postponing our day) and Marilyn was never anything short of accommodating, patient and understanding! We do feel as though we would have been lost without Marilyn and her guidance as it helped us so much along the way with planning our day and also executing our perfect day!

Marilyn is wonderful. She is such a genuine, open, down to earth and kind soul. From the moment we met with her we just clicked right away and we often spent longer than anticipated with her just chatting away. She had great communication skills, always quick to answer emails and take phone calls, she was flexible in the midst of COVID and guided us professionally when things were difficult or stressful. I felt completely reassured that everything would go perfectly in her hands. Her ceremony was both heartfelt and filled with laughter, many of the guests commented on how great she was! I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a fun, talented and caring celebrant for their special day.

Marilyn is providing the best and easy to complete the all possess through the all requirement and I am very satisfied and highly recommended appreciate
