We were married in February 2023 and from the moment we met Vanessa, we were confident this part of the special occasion would be perfect. Vanessa is so well organised and diligent, but also such a wonderful help with our preparations and ideas. Vanessa is very professional, friendly and warm, providing a detailed guide on what to expect, examples of music, vows and much more to pick from (as a guide, but also happy to accept our suggestions). Vanessa included a rehearsal the night before, so we all knew what to do and expect and came so well prepared for the day. We are happy to provide this review, assuring anyone who reads this that Vanessa is a fantastic choice as a celebrant. Thank you Ness!

Does the celebrant have to do the whole "how they met" story?

I feel like that might be awkward for us. We are a super stong and stable couple now, but when we met we still had a lot of growing up to do (we were teenagers, and broke each others hearts.) We had a huge falling out and reconnected later. It was very messy and all of our fam and friends know that. Do we have to go into that when our life is so beautiful NOW, and has been for years now?

No the ceremony should be created for you and be eaxctly what you want there are some legal components that must be completed by the Celebrant for example the Celebrant must introduce themselves using their full name, the Monitum must be read, both couples names must be said in full and of course the legal vows. Everything else is written for you with your approval.

Is a person who is asked to do a reading at the church part of the bridal party?

You may select anyone to complete a reading during the ceremony, it maybe a family member or a close friend and just because they are doing the reading doesnt make them part of the bridal party..
