AI Summary Review Summary
This is an AI generated summary of this supplier's rating and feedback.
Couples consistently describe Bernie as a calming, warm and genuinely invested celebrant who makes the entire process feel simple and stress-free—from the first meeting, through detailed guidance on legalities and prep, to a smooth ceremony day. A standout theme is how well she gets to know you, then weaves your story into a personalised script that feels heartfelt, funny and authentically “you,” while keeping everyone at ease (including nervous grooms and tight schedules). Guests and vendors alike often note the relaxed vibe, great communication, and her willingness to go above and beyond, making weddings—and even last-minute changes—run seamlessly.

Absolute privilege being part of your day xx

April 2026

We met Bernie at a wedding fair, and both my (now) husband and I clicked with her immediately. Bernie offerred an obligation free chat to make sure we were a good fit and we are so glad she was available for the big day. Her calm and easygoing personality meant she interacted with the wide range of personalities with ease. Bernie's wedding script was perfectly tailored to us as a couple, and she made the process for all the legalities super simple. Bernie supplied the audio equipment, and went above and beyond liasing with other vendors and ensuring the ceremony ran smoothly. 100% recommend using Bernie as your celebrant if you get the chance.

Thanks for your beautiful kind words, was such a special day to be a part of 🥰

July 2026

From the moment we met Bernie, we knew she was someone special. She didn't just want to know how we met or when we got engaged. She genuinely wanted to know us. She took the time to understand our story, our personalities and what mattered most to us, and somehow turned all of that into a ceremony that was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined. On the day itself, Bernie was our calm amongst the excitement. She had this incredible way of making us feel like everything was exactly as it should be. Standing at the end of the aisle can be overwhelming, but the moment Bernie began speaking, any nerves disappeared and we were simply able to soak in one of the happiest moments of our lives. Every word she spoke felt authentic, heartfelt and so uniquely us. Looking around, we could see our family and friends laughing, smiling and wiping away tears, and afterwards so many people told us it was one of the most personal and meaningful ceremonies they had ever witnessed. That is entirely thanks to Bernie and the love and care she pours into every ceremony she creates. Bernie, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding ceremony everything we dreamed it would be and so much more. You didn't just marry us, you helped create a moment that we will carry with us for the rest of our lives. We will forever be grateful that our paths crossed, and we honestly couldn't imagine anyone else standing with us as we became husband and wife. If you're looking for a celebrant who will make you feel like you're the only couple in the world, who genuinely cares about your story, and who will create a ceremony that your guests will still be talking about long after the day is over, Bernie is that person. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

Can we do funny vows

Bernadette Kersh Celebrant

Yes! You must do the legal vows as this makes your marriage legal but you can then add personal vows and I love this as it makes your ceromony personal and about you and your partner. Funny always makes the crowd laugh and makes a very happy vibe. Good luck 

Writing vows

I'm so nervous can I use chatgpt

Bernadette Kersh Celebrant

Of course!! You can do whatever you want. But also lots of people are doing personal vows in private, so that is also an option. Whatever you write will mean the world to your partner, speak from the heart and it will be beautiful.
