So glad we didn't book a registrar!
Colette suggested different ideas for things we could do in our ceremony to make it a little bit different, so we decided to have a hand-tying ritual which was fun and memorable. We met up with Colette before the wedding to rehearse this. On the Wedding Day she arrived early to meet us individually and to greet our guests before the ceremony, making us feel relaxed. Many of our guests had never been to a celebrant led ceremony before and we had so many compliments on how fun and relaxed it was

Colette wowed our guests
We were so lucky to have Colette as our wedding celebrant. From the very first meeting she made us feel comfortable and truly understood what we wanted for our ceremony. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, listened carefully to our story, and created a ceremony that felt very special and personal to us. On our special day Colette was warm, sweet and professional. Our ceremony was heartfelt, joyful and relaxed. It was really perfect, as everyone felt included and connected.

Perfect day
“ From the moment myself and partner Paul met up with Colette we immediately felt at ease. She really took the time to get to know us both as individuals and as a couple. On the day it was amazing to hear our love story unfold in front of all our family and friends. It was relaxed, humorous and really captured those tender moments. our lives. Colette is a genuinely lovely lady and we would not hesitate to recommend her services to everybody!

Made us laugh and cry!
Our ceremony was a really special part of our day. Colette got to know all the little details about our lives - when and how we met, and what's important to us in our lives together. She wrote our story and it made us laugh and cry, with all the personal touches. On the day the time just flew by! Our guests all commented on how lovely the service was and it just couldn't have been more perfect.

amazing ceremony
I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts. The ceremony was honestly the highlight of the day for me and regardless of restrictions I wouldn't have done it any other way. Our guests were also really complimentary about you.

Wonderful bespoke ceremony
Colette officiated at our wedding recently and I would have no hesitation recommending her. From the start, Colette listened to our wishes and built a wonderful bespoke ceremony which made our day very special. Colette's warm personality shone through on the day and we couldn't have wished for more. Colette is easy to do business with and I would recommend her wholeheartedly. Thank you Colette!

Personal touch
Colette saved our day! We had to find a celebrant to replace ours within 24 hours of our wedding. She listened to what we wanted and picked up all the details quickly. We had to run inside halfway through the ceremony when the heavens opened and Colette managed the situation well while adding her own personal touch to the ceremony. Our guests also thought she was great!

Superb celebrant
We asked Colette to be our celebrant for our wedding at very short notice due to last minute complications with our arrangements and Colette saved the ceremony and made our wedding so special! Colette is a superb celebrant, providing a high quality and personalised service from start to finish. She really spent time getting to know us, resulting in a celebration that was memorable and full of personal touches. We are so grateful to Colette for helping make our special day so perfect

Fantastic day
Just wanted to say a massive thank you again for everything yesterday, we were both so pleased with your professionalism and the wording of the ceremony was awesome (tear jerking!). Fantastic day!

Fun filled day!
When choosing a celebrant for our wedding it was important to us that we had the right fit and that they ‘got us’. Colette was instantly sunshine and light! So warm and engaging, we clicked with her straightaway and she completely understood what we were about. As a gay couple we did not want a traditional stuffy service and we certainly did not have that! The ceremony that Colette wrote and conducted was so right for us that it seemed like she had known us for years! We will forever cherish the memories of our fun filled and moving wedding day. Thank you Colette! Love Mauro and Andre xxx
