RACHEL AND TIM - WEDDING CEREMONY

When I met Cath I knew there and then that she was going to be our celebrant, she just blew me away with the knowledge and how friendly she was.

It was also very helpful to know that Cath was just an e-mail or phone call away to help us out with our vows and the requirements that we needed to get to her. It was always good to know that Cath was there to help us through everything that we needed to make our special day that extra special.

Cath was AMAZING especially on the day. As I was running a little late (as per tradition, but I was a lot more than traditionally late) Cath was very helpful with calming my husband’s nerves, helping us out through the ceremony with all of the tears and laughter.

Sometimes words can really not express how much help Cath was and how much she just made the day.

I highly recommend Cath to anyone in need of a celebrant.

Thanks Cath

RACHEL AND TIM - WEDDING CEREMONY

GABRIEL AND ELLA - WEDDING CEREMONY

I was thrilled from the beginning of planning my wedding with Cath.

She thought about all those little things I didn't even know they exist.

Everything was taken care of and follow up calls were made to make sure everything will go smoothly. We had issues with papers from overseas,.but even that was handled with ease and professionally. You need a marriage celebrant?....Cath is the one to choose...believe me.

GABRIEL AND ELLA - WEDDING CEREMONY

STEVEN AND KATE - WEDDING CEREMONY

Cath put a lot of work into our ceremony offering suggestions and helping to customise it to suit both our cultures (being Irish and Chinese) everyone commented on how lovely our ceremony was.

We highly recommend Cath, we received our official wedding certificate in the mail less than 2 weeks after getting married thanks to Cath registering our marriage so quickly, my friend waited nearly than 3 months through another celebrant!

STEVEN AND KATE - WEDDING CEREMONY

JOSEPH AND JIANG - WEDDING CEREMONY

Catherine is one of those people I am very comfortable dealing with. She made our wedding so special and I cannot ask for anything more. She is great and easy to deal with. So if you are thinking of tying the knot, you can always count on Cath.

JOSEPH AND JIANG - WEDDING CEREMONY

MAL AND JOHN - WEDDING CEREMONY

Cath was warm and friendly from the start and made everything very simple and straight forward and helping us through the whole process.

On the day she was very professional and kept us on schedule, as you seem to be always running late on the day. It was really nice to have someone guide you through the wedding, even more enjoyable when its your celebrant.

MAL AND JOHN - WEDDING CEREMONY

KERRY AND JOANNE - WEDDING CEREMONY

When Joanne and I first met Cath there were nerves running through both of our veins as we approach her front door. When Cath finally open the door and she smiled at both of us, all of our worries disappeared.

A feeling that we had known Cath for years passed through us both as we were invited into her stunning, yet warm home.

Jo and I had know each other for 4 years but struggled to find the words to describe how much we loved each other. We thought it would be many sleepless nights working out our vows.

Cath once again came to our rescue and had a whole folder of ideas that she had collected through the years.

On the big day, Cath was there 15 minutes early from the time we agreed on which set my mind at ease. Seeing her warm smile again, I knew that the whole day was going to be a success.

Even though we had a slight change with how we rehearsed the ceremony, Cath adjusted very professionally and was very flexible to new arrangements. (White pigeons were to be released at a certain time).

Overall at such short notice, Cath was a blessing. Jo and I recommend her to all our friends in Sydney. We wish to renew our vows in the near future and with no doubt we would be honoured to have Cath with us on that special occasion. Not only was Cath our celebrant on our memorable day, but now we consider her our personal friend of our beautiful family.

PETER AND KAREN - WEDDING CEREMONY

Hi Catherine,

I just wanted to say a huge thank you, on behalf of Pete and I, for all your help with our ceremony.

Right from the start we felt assured that we were in good hands with you. Your advice, guidance and professionalism all along the way made it a perfect ceremony on the day for us, and our entire family were so impressed and had only glowing words to say about it. Thank you for making the lead up to our most memorable day a seamless and stress- free journey.

In saying that, a family friend of ours, who was present at the ceremony, is intending to get married, and would like to enquire about your celebrant services for herself and I am passing on your details.

Thanks ever so much once again, you truly helped us make it the most wonderful day of our lives.

Warmest regards,
Karen and Pete

FRANCIS & ALETHEIA – WEDDING CEREMONY

Dear Cath

We cannot thank you enough for planning such a lovely wedding!

It was great that we were so involved throughout the whole process of planning the ceremony. It made it so much more meaningful.

We were fortunate to get showers of blessing on our wedding day! However, it unfortunately interfered with our guest being able to hear what was going on in the ceremony. But this did not stop us from having a wonderful time!

Thank you again for doing such a great job! We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone, or give you a reference.

Love Francis & Aletheia

ALEC AND PIP – WEDDING CEREMONY

Dear Cath

We still haven’t stopped telling people what a brilliant thing your wedding folder was for us in allowing us to pick and choose from your ceremony tapas menu.

The time you took with our ceremony, the help you gave us, your advice and encouragement in all our flights of fancy made our ceremony both very personal and so easy to put together.

Thank you!

DENIS AND CLAIRE – WEDDING CEREMONY

Thanks for the wonderful ceremony. At all times we were confident that things will go well, or we can seek advice from you on any matter and you would be able to help.

We appreciated your understanding and flexibility when we requested change of the date for the ceremony, and the time of the ceremony later. Your handbook was very comprehensive with samples of readings and ceremonies. We were hoping for something like a process map in written form showing how to prepare for the wedding, such as what to do at what stage and what we should consider and where to look for that information. This was explained to us through questions and your answers and emails.

Your professionalism and your smile made us very comfortable.

LARISSA AND DANIEL - WEDDING CEREMONY

When we went to meet with Cath, we were both a bit apprehensive. We were unsure of the process and what it all involved and with the wedding planning, we were feeling a bit overwhelmed. When we met with her however, she made us feel quite comfortable and was very personable/likeable. There was no question we would be having her as our celebrant on the day.

Cath was very organised and we found she was able to suggest a lot of things we had not thought of and even recommend suppliers she had met through the business. She made the process a lot easier than we had originally expected and she was able to organise the ceremony just the way we had requested it be originally, simple, informal and relaxed.

We had a few dramas on the day with rain but fortunately, she was able to reorganise the set up at the venue (outside) once the rain had stopped in order for myself and the bridesmaid to avoid any mud or other things which would ruin the dresses and shoes.

Very professional and a lovely person. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to any other couples I know who may be married in the future.

NATHAN AND THI - WEDDING CEREMONY

Cath was extremely professional and was able to anticipate all our needs (including needs we didn't know about!)

Her knowledge and hand out material made it very easy for us to work out our ceremony plan.

You won’t be disappointed!

NATHAN AND THI - WEDDING CEREMONY

SATHYA AND STEVEN – WEDDING CEREMONY

Dear Cathy

You were the most helpful and supportive celebrant we could have asked for. You helped us out of a really tough situation with another celebrant and helped to make our wedding the day of our dreams.

It wouldn't have been the same without you. Our ceremony was beautiful.

Sathya and Steven

STEVEN AND JENNIFER - WEDDING CEREMONY

Cath was our celebrant for a small backyard wedding in Sydney. She was very organised and professional, arrived early as promised on the day, and was helpful all throughout our wedding planning process.

My bride was very comfortable knowing that at least this part of the wedding would go smoothly, which was a huge relief for me.!!

STEVEN AND JENNIFER - WEDDING CEREMONY

JAMIE AND RITA (FROM HONG KONG) – WEDDING CEREMONY

As an overseas couple from Hong Kong, we at first knew nothing about the legal requirements and cultural procedures of a wedding ceremony in Australia. Cath did not only explain and guide us in detail of what we need to do, she also gave us lot of suggestions for making our Big Day perfect and hassle-free.

We were impressed by Cath's delicate, professional and wholehearted services. To us, she was not just a wedding celebrant, she was indeed a wedding planner. Say, she even took care of our choices of wedding venue (suggested us a Plan B venue for bad weather), music for the ceremony, guided us the right pose for taking better pics at the ceremony, arranged the wedding certificate to send back to HK directly in an efficient and economical way (so we could enjoy our honeymoon around Australia without worrying to get the wedding certificate from the legal authority during our limited time in Australia).... oh... and passed me tissues when I was so touched and cried at the ceremony...!!!

Having Cath as our wedding celebrant was a gift from God. She is much more than we originally expected. She made our day even more perfect!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
