“Katrina's energy and passion for events are seen in the way she conducts herself in the planning of Monie and my wedding. Her intricacy in planning via her briefing meetings has greatly aided us in gathering a detailed understanding of how the evening would pan out and flesh out any potential causes for concern. Her bubbly personality and engaging character made it very comfortable for us to coordinate the details of the evening. She worked in synchronisation with our DJ, celebrant, venue coordinator, family and friends. Overall, Katrina was very entertaining. Her expression through linguistics of Cantonese and English garnered the entire crowd's attention assembling a wedding evening of laughter and fun. We would highly recommend Katrina for your next event!" — Michael + Monie. 

 

“We had the honour of having Katrina as our emcee at our wedding reception. She was energetic, bubbly, friendly, easily approachable, and perfect for multilingual events. Katrina is so organised leading up to our wedding. She made it super easy for my husband and I, and we could just rely on her and not need to be stressed with the events of the night. Everything went smoothly, and we are so glad to have Katrina as our emcee! We would highly recommend and refer Katrina to our friends and family. Thank you again, Katrina, for making our night super special and memorable!" — Hui + James.

Words cannot describe how amazing and helpful Katrina was from the lead up to our wedding day itself! Katrina was really easy to work with and we felt supported the whole way as she frequently checked in on us and kept us on track with our planning. Her organized personality really showed when she helped us structured our run sheet for the day - which resulted in our wedding day running seamlessly. And I can't forget to mention how she catered to our families by hosting the tea ceremony, ceremony and reception in both Cantonese and English, which I'm sure our aunties and uncles appreciated. I could honestly go on and on but I would totally recommend her to anyone that needs an energetic, warm and well-organized MC or Celebrant. She is more than just a MC and a celebrant. 10/10 definitely the certified hypewoman! Thank you so much again Katrina for being there with us on our special day! We were so lucky to have you there!

There was not a dry eye in sight during our ceremony! As our MC, she was MASSIVE help in organisation and ensuring we kept to our timesheet (with flexibility, which we appreciated). Our family and friends truly enjoyed having Katrina there. They were really impressed with her. We would highly recommend having Katrina as your celebrant and MC!

Katrina was an amazing bilingual (English & Mandarin) celebrant & MC for our wedding in the Yarra Valley. Super professional, organised and polite. She really helped make things as smooth as possible and took a lot of stress out of our big day. She put our mind at ease from the first meeting all the way through to our big day and executed flawlessly. Cannot recommend her highly enough, thanks again Katrina!
