Highlights of working with Michelle for your wedding:
We were so lucky to have Michelle as the celebrant. She was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Her warmth, professionalism and genuine way with people made everyone feel comfortable straight away. She had guests smiling and laughing throughout the ceremony, while still keeping everything beautifully organised and meaningful. It was clear she truly cares about the couples she works with and the experience she creates for everyone involved. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a celebrant who brings joy, laighter, calm and professionalism to such a special day. Emma & Rob
About
Hi, I'm Michelle Louise, mum of two beautiful kiddos, lover of adventure, joy, and (of course) weddings. I decided to hang up my TV hat and swap London for the Yarra Valley to be near my awesome sister and soak up the stunning scenery. Becoming a celebrant was the perfect transition: country life, family time and doing what I love - weddings. In my spare time, I'm a hiker, filmmaker, pianist, and wine enthusiast. And the best part? I no longer have to crash weddings, I get paid to be there :-)

What a wonderful review, thank you so much Lucinda, it was such a special day and I can't tell you how much I loved being a part of it. You two are awesome and I'm still thinking about stalking your honeymoon, so if you notice me hiding behind a palm tree don't be surprised :-)
