Marriage Celebrants Reviews

We were so lucky to have Rob as our celebrant at Guildhall, from the very first meeting, he made us feel completely at ease. Robert guided us through every step of the process, taking the stress out of the legalities and helping us craft a ceremony that felt entirely “us.” With only a few thoughtful questions, he managed to capture our story perfectly, even weaving in our slightly silly ideas (like including our dog!) with warmth and humour. On the day, Robert was nothing short of amazing. He created a ceremony that was engaging, heartfelt, and full of laughter. The way he turned unexpected moments like my dad going completely off-script during his reading or champagne popping mid-vows in dead quiet into highlights made it all the more memorable. His calm presence behind the scenes, from easing pre-ceremony nerves to guiding us subtly through what to do and when, when nerves are high made everything flow effortlessly. We received (and continue to receive) countless compliments from our guests about how entertaining yet moving the ceremony was, a true reflection of Rob’s delivery, energy, and professionalism. He has a genuine gift for storytelling and connection, and we feel so grateful he was part of our day and would recommend him 100 times over.

 ​We just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts 🥹 we honestly don’t have enough words to express how grateful we are for everything you’ve done. From our very first phone call, you felt like a friend we’d known for years. You came up with so many thoughtful ideas, things we would never have considered if it weren’t for you! You helped calm our nerves so many times, and you lifted such a huge weight off our shoulders when you suggested Albert River Wines when our original venue fell through 2 months out. The venue was absolutely beautiful more than we ever dreamed of and it felt so us. Thank you so, so much for sharing it with us. We will be recommending you to absolutely everyone we know. Even our guests were commenting on how amazing you were! Thanks again, Lucy for everything. Much love, Mrs & Mr Noske

We chose Rebecca as the celebrant for our Marriage Renewal and we could not have been happier with our choice. We loved our Marriage Renewal ceremony more than our actual marriage ceremony. It felt so much more customised to us and special. Rebecca's background as an English Teacher meant that she was able to make the experience so unique by providing help with writing our vows. It is something we both wanted but didn't feel confident doing. Rebecca helped us with writing prompts, provided example vows, set a character limit and editing. I know my husband appreciated Rebecca giving him feedback on the length, tone etc. so it was in keeping with what I had written. I think there is nothing worse than a couple who say their own vows but then they don't match in terms of length, tone, theme etc. (I think we have all seen that viral TikTok video or custom vows gone wrong!) Rebecca ensures this doesn't happen.  Besides our vows, our favourite part of the ceremony was the custom love story that Rebecca wrote and then told as part of the ceremony. She started the process by sending individual surveys that we completed independently which meant we didn't know what we had each had answered. She then combines it all to tell the story from both of our perspectives. The story made us laugh and cry plus doing the surveys gave us each the chance to reminisce on our love story which helped with ideas for our vows. Rebecca even gave us a copy of our love story after the ceremony. The story on its own is worth more than what Rebecca charges for her ceremony service.  Lastly, the way Rebecca incorporated our daughter into the ceremony is something that we and she will never forget. Little touches like having a spot for her to sign on the certificate, and interviewing her beforehand so she could custom write some vows for her made her feel involved and that the ceremony was about her too. Our Marriage Renewal ceremony is truly an experience we will forever look back on with joy. We

Trudy is a truly wonderful person. She took so much time and care from beginning to end and made sure that the ceremony was personalised to our unique love story. Trudy also embraced celebrating the day in a gender neutral way which was really important to my partner and I. Trudy was both professional and warm and made our day so special. I could not recommend highly enough.

Kristy was the perfect person to marry my husband (!) and me! She was warm, calm and genuine from the first time we met and did such an amazing job of guiding us through the process. Kristy made it so fun and easy to achieve a ceremony that felt truly authentic, a little bit fresh/different and a real reflection of us. Kristy was organised and thoughtful and hit the perfect tone in every way - even down to the little things like knowing when to step out for a photo op or helping with tiny tweaks to a word here and there in our vows. We couldn’t recommend Kristy more highly!! I also did a private yoga class with Kristy and my bridesmaids the morning of the wedding and it was the PERFECT way to start the day! Kristy led us through the most lovely practice and immediately afterwards I felt centred and was able to let go of all the planning and prep to enjoy the day. An absolute game changer for the whole day!! The hugest thank you to Kristy for being such an important part of our perfect day!!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant and M/C than Sophie! From the very start, she felt like part of the family; so warm, positive, and just an absolute joy to have around. The ceremony was everything we could have hoped for; heartfelt, funny, and perfectly us. Sophie made us feel completely comfortable (even though we know we’re a bit of an odd pair!) and somehow captured our personalities perfectly. The whole day just flowed so naturally, and we owe so much of that to her. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how incredible Sophie was, and honestly, we couldn’t agree more. Thank you for putting so much heart, energy, and love into our day. You made it truly unforgettable, and we’re so, so grateful. 💛 - Erin & Ken

Mark went above and beyond for us! All the little things that we had no idea about he made sure it was all covered! Even down to making us a video on how the ceremony will go as we were too far away and could not do a rehearsal. We could not have done this without him! He also rocked it with the DJ side! 💯 would recommend

Sue was incredible each step of the way! Quick to message with availability and helped us every step of the way! We felt so comfortable at our first initial touch base coffee, our getting close to the wedding let’s start talking more details coffee, rehersal ceremony and she was there early on the wedding day ready to roll as soon as it was ready to ahead. She was super available between and after with any questions and was the perfect celebrant! She made us feel so safe and comfortable and did a great job with helping make sure my hubby felt relaxed waiting at the alter despite nerves! Could never recommend someone more if you want someone who will ensure you feel safe every step of the way!
