Christine was an exceptional celebrant. We were coming from Sydney so our first meeting with Christine was via video call, she provided us with all the info we needed and made everything seem clear and easy. She then met with us the day before the wedding to see the venue, talk us through the process and so we could sign the relevant paper work. On the day she was warm and professional, she talked to our family as they arrived and even combatted the dragon boat racing nearby as she hosted the ceremony. She is the celebrant you want. Her experience and the relaxed atmosphere she creates puts you

Michael was an amazing celebrant. He was warm, personable, and very cool under pressure. Our wedding day had a number of hiccups due to weather (change of ceremony location, issues with the venue-supplied microphone), but Michael took it all in his stride and handled it with aplomb. He handled the issues so seamlessly and with humour, in a way that… made everyone forget about it straight away.
Michael was funny and calm. He went above and beyond to help us on the day, keeping us on track and putting us at ease throughout the ceremony. He was very informative, and took care of all the boring
