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 🥰

June 2026

If you’re looking for a celebrant who is equal parts professional, hilarious, warm and just the right amount of unhinged (in the absolute best way), Bernie is your person. From the moment we met her, we knew she was the perfect fit for us. She took the time to really get to know us and somehow managed to turn our chaotic love story into a ceremony that was heartfelt, funny, authentic and unapologetically us. She absolutely nailed the vibe we were going for. Bernie kept us calm, organised and laughing throughout the entire process. Nothing was too much trouble, no question was too silly, and she was always happy to roll with our ideas. She even offered to throw in a few well-placed swear words to suit our personalities – because sometimes “love, honour and cherish” just isn’t quite enough. That willingness to embrace our sense of humour and make the ceremony genuinely reflect who we are meant the world to us. Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts Bernie! Love, Kylie and Rohan

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.
