NICK & SKYE

Dawn,

Thank you so much for co-ordinating such a wonderful wedding ceremony for Skye and I. The lengths you went to to make the ceremony so personalised and stress-free helped make our wedding everything we could have dreamed of. 

Your organisation before the wedding made the process so easy, and the eloquence with which you spoke made the ceremony sincere and heartfelt.

We couldn't have asked for a better Celebrant, so thank you for making the ceremony everything we wanted and more.

Thank you so very much for making our day so special. You were an absolute delight to work with, and you made the ceremony so relaxed for us. We had no idea about the legal requirements when it came to marriage, but you made this easy for us to understand – it was an absolute breeze. Thank you for all the extra small things you did to help us make our day perfect, like picking up the flowers and taking them to the Groom, and coming earlier than expected so you could get everything ready. Having a Celebrant that keeps a couple calm and makes everything easy is amazing, and we were so lucky to have you marry us. You created a ceremony that we will remember for the rest of our lives, thank you so much again for all the effort and support you gave us.

Many thanks for being our celebrant. Your relaxed but organised manner made the event so easy, from paper work to vows! 

We wanted an on-farm wedding that would include the outdoors, animals, and children (often not a good mix) but it all went to plan. 


Your touch of using petals from my carriage to Ivan was very beautiful and your understanding of our location made for an easy, no-fuss occasion enjoyed very much by us, our family and friends. 

We sincerely thank you for being part of our wonderful day.

DEAN & JASON
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for helping to make our special day so very special.  We knew from the moment we contacted you that we could work with you.  

We are both so pleased we chose to use the handfasting option.  This not only added a very special element to our service but also has provided a very memorable addition to the ceremony that is unique to us.  Everyone that has seen our photos agrees!

You made the ceremony so easy and stress-free and put us at ease with your calm, considerate and selfless manner.  Again, we were so pleased on the day we had chosen you as our Celebrant as the level of service, help, advice and commitment you provided was faultless.  Your professionalism is also excellent and we would highly recommend you and your services to others.

We, and our family, very much enjoyed our special day and we feel privileged and blessed that this was conducted by you.  You have left such an imprint in our hearts that we will forever remember you and look forward to keeping in touch for many years to come!!

With heartfelt gratitude and appreciation, yours thankfully,

Dean and Jason

ERIN'S BABY NAMING CEREMONY
Dawn, 

​Thank you so much for organising what was truly a special day for the whole family. At first, none of us knew what would be involved in a naming party, but you helped guide us through it step-by-step and had loads of great ideas to make the ceremony so personal. It was just perfect!  What a fantastic way to get family, guardians and close friends together to celebrate and commit to our daughter Erin.
