Just
some of the testimonials received from
past clients
Here are just a few of the many thank you
notes and testimonials I receive in addition to the many positive
remarks from guests who love the ceremonies, the unique additions,
light-hearted moments, and heartfelt expression of the personalities,
values and beliefs of the couples and families for whom the ceremonies
are created and performed.

Jennifer conducted a beautiful and intimate
ceremony for us. She made it very personal and everyone who attended
felt part of our special day. She was very experienced and gave us
invaluable tips and advice in the preparation for our ceremony. We'd
like to thank her for making it such a memorable day. -
Hue and Alex, who married at Newstead Park.
Our most sincere
thankyou, Jenny, for making our wedding day so special. It was
important to Sam and I that our ceremony was personal and inclusive of
our guests and you did everything to make sure that this was the case.
So many of our friends commented on how much they enjoyed the service,
so thank you for all your help and hard work. Nothing seemed like too
much trouble, so it was an absolutely pleasure having you share in our
special day. All the best for the future -
Sam and D, who married on the lovely deck
at Franklin Villa and involved their brothers and sisters in the
ceremony.

We
just wanted to thank you for the beautiful ceremony you put together.
All the
guests commented on what a great job you did encapsulating our
relationship.
So, THANK YOU!! -
Allison and Rohan
who incorporated a rose
ceremony in their marriage ceremony in the
beautiful gardens of Topiaries at Beaumont

Thank you so much for writing such a
beautiful, personalised, yet
'non-cheesy' ceremony for us, Jenny. Arranging it was so seamless and
easy and the finished product was just perfect for us. Our guests have
been expressing their praise for you & the ceremony repeatedly, and
keep asking us all about how we found you, how you arranged it etc.
Some guests, especially some male ones, found it far more touching than
they would ever have expected, and are quite fascinated that you were
able to do that! All your help & advice with the legalities of
marriage, eg documents, paperwork, name-changing advice, has also been
absolutely invaluable to us. In short, we made absolutely the right
decision in booking you as our celebrant, Jenny. We are absolutely
thrilled with what you did for our ceremony - it was quite simply,
perfect. Thank you, XX -
Sandra
and Kai who married at Woodlands of Marburg
We
couldn't think of a more beautiful wedding experience. We didn't expect
all the extra special touches that made our day perfect. We were so
lucky to have chosen you and have already recommended you to some
friends planning to marry.
Sonya and
Jamie married on the beach at Redcliffe.
Hi Jennifer, Brett and I would like to say a HUGE
thank you for the wonderful job you did for us yesterday. It was such a
lovely ceremony, we
couldn't have asked for a better one. Everyone of our guests said that
the
ceremony was beautiful, especially with your added touches. Thank You
again and we will
definately recommend you to any of our friends who want to get married.
-
Jess and Brett who married in a
late afternoon Warm and Wonderful Weekday
Wedding ceremony in a private
garden.
Jenny has some lovely finishing touches which made the day really
special. Her choice of wording and sense of occasion are all extremely
approprate and made everyone feel relaxed. We both had a fab day as did
our guests. We were given good advice and help all along. We both
'switched off' to the outside world during the ceremony and definitely
feel we made the best choice. -
Clare
and Damien who married in a Warm and Wonderful
Weekday
Wedding on Scarborough Beach.
Dearest
Jenny,

Allow
me first to say how privileged Shaun and I felt having you as our
celebrant on our special day; words cannot express how appreciative we
were to
have such a professional and heartfelt celebrant and for that we are
most
thankful! Our family and friends repeatedly commented on what a
wonderful
choice we made in choosing you to be our celebrant and how lovely the
ceremony
itself was; unique and charming, involved all our honoured guests but
was
personalised enough that everyone felt it perfectly described our love
for one
another! It truly was a magnificent ceremony and we would both very
much like
to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us
through it and
making it as special as it was for us. If every wedding you do is as
great as ours was, every couple should be thrilled! Many
thanks again -
Michelle
and Shaun who married by the Brisbane River at Sir Manuel Hornibrook
Park.
Dearest Jenny,
Warren & I would like to thank
you for all you did for our wedding. We haven't even been married
a week,
but have already been inundated with calls, comments, emails etc.
about
how incredibly unique and personal our ceremony was, and none of our
guests
have ever experienced anything like it. You delivered everything we
asked,
and everything we wanted for our wedding ceremony. You were
incredibly professional and helpful throughout all the preparations,
and we
greatly appreciate everything you did to make our day so special.
It was the most beautiful perfect
day - no words to describe it. Thank you so much for being such a
huge
part in it all.
Much love Anna & Warren - who
held their ceremony incorporating elements to honour the Groom's Scottish heritage
next to the creek at Bundaleer Rainforest Gardens.
After attending a
wedding six months after her own, Melissa sent the following reflection
and comparison:
Hi Jenny,
Well its been almost six months since Andrew
and I got married. We both went to
a wedding last night and I felt compelled to write to you today. Last
night's ceremony was nice however I couldn't help but notice the
celebrant
lacked the attention to detail which you had. Throughout the ceremony I
wondered if she considered the following:
- her dress choice - which was red,
purple, orange and yellow, low cut and
bright.
- the music - which was cut off
mid-song when the bride arrived.
- the PA system - there wasn't one.
It was an outside ceremony and I missed
some of it because I couldn't hear her.
- the pink lacy bra she was wearing
which we could see, in all its glory, when
she bent forward to light the candle;
- did she consider the cheap fluro
pink plastic folder she had her documents
in?
did she consider where she was
standing - I couldn't get a good photo of the
bride and groom because she was in the way!
- the ceremony content - I left the
ceremony thinking.. Where did they meet?
How did they meet? who are the people in their bridal party?
I
don't mean to be disrespectful to the celebrant of last night's
wedding.
Unfortunately for yesterday's wedding service, all these minor things
added and
I walked away dissatisfied with the service. I didn't think about
these small things when booking your services and I
certainly didn't think to ask about them... but I sure am glad you paid
attention to detail. Yesterday's wedding has highlighted the standard
of
professionalism we got from you leading up to and during our wedding
day - it
was the best service we could have imagined. Our guests commented on
how
personalised our service was and even commented on your emotive
responses on
the day. I am so pleased they remember you for all the right things.
Although I sent you a 'thank you' card after our wedding day I just
felt
compelled to write to you and say thank you again Jenny. I wonder if
I'll ever
go to another wedding ceremony and actually see a celebrant who has
paid
attention to every little detail like you. You helped to make our day
memorable
and you've set the standard high.
Regards, Melissa

Our
Warm and Wonderful Weekday
Wedding with
Jenny far surpassed what we were expecting. When we decided to “elope”
whilst on
holiday in Australia, we had thought we would be having a fairly dry
ceremony
in a registry office but Jenny’s service meant that what we had was
very much
different from those expectations.
As we were organising our wedding from
overseas, Jenny’s professionalism and attention to detail was
key. As we were unfamiliar with Brisbane, Jenny
helped us choose our venue and provided us with internet links and
photos of
some of the places available. She gave us step by step guidance
regarding all
the Australian legal requirements and her prompt and complete
communication was
excellent, removing any worry at our end.
She anticipated our questions making the process as easy as if we were
in Brisbane!
We particularly appreciated her
thoughtfulness and “thinking for us” by leading us through the process
to
enable us to collect our official certificate from the Registry Office
in
Brisbane, rather than us having to wait for it to be posted out.
We were both very moved by the ceremony itself
and it was Jenny’s small, personalised touches that really made it so
special for
us. We would very strongly recommend Jenny to
anyone looking for a celebrant!
-
Jane and Euan who married at Roma Street Parkland the day after they
arrived in Australia.
When the whole ceremony came
together on the day we both knew that this was as good as it gets. Our
guests were pleasantly surprised by the ceremony and for us they felt
equal players on the day. Because each person had a chance to speak we
had no need for speeches @ the post-wedding meal! We felt totally
supported, even when we had moments of blankness and forgot our own
names. -
Pam and Paul who travelled
from England to be married at Mt Pleasant in an informal intimate
wedding.
Dear Jenny, Thank-you, once again, for such a lovely and for us perfect
ceremony! Many people commented on how special and different it was,
and how much they enjoyed the personalised style - especially the
wording of the ceremony!! It was created perfectly for us and that was
recognised by everyone there. It was a perfect evening and wedding. We
also enjoyed the lead-up. Thanks for your patience and utter
professionalism! -
Amber and Leonie
who travelled from Germany to celebrate their relationship with a
handfasting at Sassafras Café at Paddington.
A remarkably professional service. Not
able to be improved upon. Our family and friends were very impressed.
We give thanks that A.J. guided us towards your person. -
Heather and Keith who celebrated 50 years
of marriage with a ceremony held at Woodlands of Marburg.
It was a pleasure to work with you on Sunday, you are a gifted
professional
- Kerri Jessep, the
photographer for Heather and Keith's ceremony.
Thank
you so very much for your efforts
toward such a very special day and wonderful ceremony : ) I
truly can't imagine having done it any other way and your style and
approach really set the tone and helped make the magic of the whole
day. Overall, I am absolutely impressed by the way you operate -
the unique tailoring of the ceremony, the prolific resource base and
well thought-out considerations you helped us manage. I also very
much appreciated the surprise and lovely hard-copy of the ceremony you
prepared for us. You looked fabulous on the day as well as shaped how
things traveled, without having to overly direct us. If we have cause
for celebration shortly down the track - it will be lovely to have you
lead this. In the meantime, I have already been promoting your
fabulousness to various couples who are commencing their wedding plans.
Sincerest thanks and affection -
Megan
and John who married at the City Botanic Gardens
Hi Jennifer,
Svetlana and I have just arrived back from our honeymoon, we had a
wonderful time at Twin Water resort. We also had a a fantastic
reception and our ceremony was great, God
was looking down on us on Saturday before he let the heavens open up
with rain,
we were very lucky.
We would like to thank you for our ceremony and all that you did
for us it was a wonderful day, THANK YOU very much.
With love and respect, David and
Svetlana, who married at
Centenary Lakes, Caboolture with family, friends and a large flock of
cockatoos in attendance
Both
Fabrizio and I would
like to thank you for a beautiful
memorable day. You really made our special day special. All our friends
and
family commented on the great job you done. Your words where really
sweet and
meant a lot to us. It was obvious to all that you really enjoy your job
and are
very dedicated and put in the effort to learn a little about us and
then use
that in your service. Gulay and
Fabrizio who married in a Warm and Wonderful Weekday Wedding at the
Brisbane Botanic Gardens, Mt Coot-tha
We thank you for being
with us
on our big day.
It was all we thought it would be - just perfect! We
can't thank you enough for your professionalism and the 'it's not a
problem'
approach you had - THANK YOU! Having
eloped from friends and most of our family to do this - we quietly went
back to
the hotel and phoned everyone (family and friends) to give them the
biggest
shock they've had in quite a while! and after 20 years together -
no one
had a clue!! Thank
you for giving us one of the best memories we will ever have!
- Gay
and Jamie who married in a Warm and Wonderful Weekday Wedding in the
City Botanic Gardens.
Just a short note to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for
making it all come together so nicely it was described as elegant
warm dignified and friendly -just what we aimed for. Many thanks. I
will never forget you Jennifer -
Franca
who married her handsome love, Aurelio, in an intimate ceremony at
Toni's Restaurant at Mt Gravatt.
Living overseas but deciding to have our
wedding in Brisbane meant we had to put our trust in Jenny to do most
of the work. We only met her face-to-face the evening before our 'big
day'. Everything was perfect. She made us feel so at ease. Thanks Jenny
The whole experience was wonderful. The work you did (and we did) to
formulate the ceremony was something neither of us had thought about
having to do but really made us feel involved. -
Tony & Anna-Marie who nipped across
from New Zealand for a long weekend for their intimate wedding.
Thanks for the perfect ceremony!!
We are so glad you were our celebrant. Thank you for helping us through
the whole process and for always being so approachable &
available!! The ceremony
was beautiful. Perfect. We loved how you personalised the whole service
and made it very inclusive of the attendants etc. Everyone there on the
day commented on what a fantastic job you did and how lovely the
ceremony was.
- Susan & Kath, who celebrated their love in a commitment
ceremony at Mt Glorious Getaways
Hi Jenny.
I just wanted to drop
you a quick email to thank you
again for the lovely ceremony you conducted today. We received so many
comments
from our friends and family after the ceremony saying they thought it
was
excellent.
We shall certainly recommend your services to
anyone else
we know who is getting married or having a naming ceremony in the
future.
Many thanks,
Geleeta,
James and Sage.
Once
again I would like to thank you for the time and effort you put into
our beautiful ceremony. The whole day was just wonderful and was
exactly as we had envisaged. Kind regards,
Melanie & Bobby who married in the
grounds of the University of Queensland in an intimate ceremony that
included three lovely little fairies and a highland piper.
Hello
Jennifer, I just wish to convey my sincere thanks for such a beautiful
ceremony
that you performed for Candice (my daughter) & Chris. It was so
personal and full of love the memories of that special day will stay
with me forever. Everyone was inspired and moved by the ceremony and
commented on just how beautiful it was. Everything was so perfect with
the personal touches that were included in the ceremony it was very
hard by all to keep a dry eye on the day. Thank you again I would
highly recommend you. Kind Regards,
Dianne
(Mother of the Bride). Chris
and Candice celebrated their marriage with family and friends in a
formal reaffirmation of vows featuring an unusual variation on the sand
ceremony.
Jenny, Thank you so much for yesterday. It was a perfect day and I had
so much fun. Everything was just so wonderful and many guests commented
on the ceremony and how it fit us perfectly. Thank You for listening to
us about what we wanted and delivering it to a tee! - Glenys xxx -

Hi
Jenny, Thank you so
much for helping us with the ceremony yesterday, it was magical and not
a dry eye in the place! Thank
you for everything (leading up to and including yesterday). Not only
did we have a great time but we’ve heard so many fabulous comments
about the ceremony, and the way you conducted it. Everyone really
enjoyed it and they definitely let us know which is fantastic! -
Michelle and Paula who exuberantly jumped
the broom at the end of their commitment ceremony in the ceremony
garden at Clear Mountain Lodge
Thank you for the beautiful wedding ceremony
you created for our special day. It exceeded our expectations. What a
perfect start to our married life! We have received many compliments
from our guests which we credit to you. You put our minds at ease,
always answered our questions. You delivered an emotional, personal and
inclusive ceremony and many people commented how good it was. It
wasn't 'the standard wedding' which is exactly what we wanted and thank
you very much. - Melissa and Andrew
who married at
Indooroopilly Golf Club in a ceremony that incorporated a
purpose-created ritual that looked forward to their first wedding
anniversary.
You made our wedding such a special yet a
hassle-free one. We
absolutely loved the vows you customised for us and are really grateful
for your help. You're the best! We're totally satisfied. Ruchi and Jonas who eloped on the
Shorncliffe Pier
Thank you for making our Moroccan/Bellydance
themed wedding come together perfectly! We wanted something original
and unique, while keeping that "traditional" Middle Easter feel, and
you gave that to us. As you know one of our guests from the day has now
chosen you for her upcoming wedding as well! A lot of people commented
afterwards how moving the ceremony was. Thank you! - Maria and Jeff who married in a sumptuous
theme wedding at the Everton Park Hotel.
Jenny, Thank you so much for your wamth
and professionalism in preparing for an officiating our wedding.
You made everyone in the wedding party feel at ease as you guided us
through our ceremony, which was structured especially for us. Thank you
for your flexibility, guidance and experience in ceremony-writing.
Thank you for allowing our wedding to be fun, romantic and uniquely
'us'. It was a day we will remember fondly forever. We had the most
beautiful wedding ceremony. Thank you! - Luke and Bronwyn who married at the Summit
Restaurant on Mt Coot-tha in a ceremony that put a new twist on some
old traditions.

were lucky to witness one of the most touching ceremonies which brought
tears to everyone's eyes. - Comment

The
whole experience was easy, organised,
with plenty of time to organise beforehand. On the day Jennifer made us
feel comfortable and relaxed due to her experience and calm nature. The
way she performed the ceremony was very loving, sharing our personal
information to guests in a way that did not offend anyone which made us
more relaxed. She did a great job! A beautiful personalised ceremony
made all our dreams come true - Amber
and Yvette, who celebrated their union at Virginia Palms International.
Jenny, Thank you so much for all your hard
work in putting together and
conducting our beautiful ceremony. The effort you put into tailoring
our personalised ceremony was most appreciated. All our guests
commented on how moving it was. It was just a great way for Paul and I
to start our life together! Warm regards, Jodi and Paul, who married in a Scottish Tartan ceremony
in the rose garden at Hillstone, St Lucia.
Dear
Jennifer,
Thank you so much for making a big day (or part thereof!) flow very
easily.
Your
attention to detail made the ceremony special to all in
attendance, and especially to us. Quite a number of guests commented on
how they liked the ceremony structure & content, as well as
delivery. The Ring Warming was quite a hit too. You were so helpful
when we met, and that help continued through development to delivery -
which made all the difference. We knew we were in the hands of a
professional & had no need to worry.
You make a
complex job look simple and do it with a genuine warmth -
well done.
Dan & I
thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your
contribution to a very special day, and would have no hesitation in
recommending your services to any friends or family. Thanks so much!
xxoo
Carly & Dan who
married at Einbinpun Lagoon, Sandgate in a casual, relaxed ceremony.
Thank
you so much for a beautiful ceremony. The comments from the guests
afterwards were truly inspiring - I wish you had been able to hear them
yourself. Everyone was impressed with the way the ceremony was
especially for Alice and Murray and not just picked from a list. -
from Judy, Murray's mother. Alice and
Murray reaffirmed their vows in a candlelit ceremony in Judy's garden.
Jenny, Steve
and I
would like to thank you for making our day perfect. Coming
from another state and dealing purely by email couldn't have been
easier. Prompt responses to my emails put my mind at ease & showed
me that we had picked the best celebrant to perform our ceremony.
Jenny, you wrote the vows perfectly and said them with the passion that
was required. When we first met you on our day you were so lovely.
Words can't really express our gratitude for your professionalism.
Thankyou
thankyou thankyou. Would
recommend your services to everyone.

was the happiest day of our lives! The ceremony could not have been
more perfect. It brought people to tears.You are incredibly well
organised. We appreciated all of your help. Your input
and suggestions regarding our ceremony made for a perfect day
- Sarah
and Susan who held their commitment ceremony at Newstead Park and
included their 18 nieces and nephews in the ceremony
Our day was all
about the marriage - not about
the wedding. You made our day with your warmth caring and sharing. Bob
& I are truly blessed. It was our day, casual, happy and
fulfilling. Fabulous. Better than any huge wedding. I will never forget
my first hug as Bob's wife. Jennifer, it was just perfect. Thank you.

Sherryl & Bob, who held their
Warm and Wonderful Weekday Wedding in their own lounge-room with just
two witnesses.
Hi Jenny,
We just wanted
to thank you for your lovely ceremony last
Saturday. It
was exactly what we wanted and was enjoyed by all. We especially liked
the
personalised touch you gave. We also appreciate you performing
this at
such sort notice. Perhaps we will see you in another year or so with
the next one!! Kind regards,
Danielle
and Will whose naming for
their daughter Charlotte was arranged to
coincide with a short trip back home from overseas.
Jenny was always very
professional and very
efficient but still warm and funny. She made us feel very relaxed and
at ease. She was engaging and made everyone feel at ease. She was
easily contactable and responded quickly to my emails. - Melanie &
James who married in an intimate ceremony at New Farm Park organised
from the UK
Thank you for such a
beautiful & perfect
naming ceremony for both our children. The words,& readings were
both inspirational & thoughtful. Everyone felt included in the
ceremony & commented such afterwards. A beautiful memory for our
family. Thank you. Kerrie, Brendan,
Gemma & Cooper who celebrated the naming of Gemma in their own
backyard and two years later held a naming ceremony for Cooper in the
same place.
Dear Jenny, On
Murrayand Alice's behalf I wanted
to write to say
special thanks for the ceremony you conducted on 9th January. It
was indeed special and bore no resemblance
to what would have been had they chosen to use the services of the
Registry
Office. - Judy
(mother of groom). Visa wedding held in Judy's lovely rural garden
Jennifer has
been an awesome marriage celebrant throughout the entire process. She
has been very suportive and understanding towards both of our needs. It
has been a very touching and moving ceremony and every single one of
the
guests loved it. The love letter was an awesome idea as we both love
them. We also like the design of the love letters and also the copy of
the ceremony. - Ling and Tan, who
married in a ceremony that acknowledged and celebrated their Chinese
heritage
Dear Jenny,
We just wanted to
say another big thankyou
for our fantastic wedding ceremony.
It was just perfect, and very 'us'. We loved that it was so
intimate, and
personal, yet our guests felt so involved. Many of our guests
commented
on how wonderful it was that you used our own words in the ceremony,
and we've
even had a few of our friends comment that they'd like to steal a few
ideas for
their own wedding ceremonies! Thank you once
again for your amazing
work. We would have no hesitation
in recommending you to our friends and family. - Penny &
Chris, who married at Brett's Wharf
Hi
Jenny, My wife & i
would just like 2 send u a very special THANK YOU very
much 4 all of your help & blessings on our special occasion, thank
you.-
Ian & Dianne who
married at the Bush Chapel, Queens Park, Ipswich.
Dear
Jenny,
I'm
sorry that this testimonial is a long time coming – it seems that there
is just
as many things to do after a wedding as there is organizing one!
Kurt
and I would like to sincerely express our gratitude to you and all that
you
contributed to our wedding. As I mentioned above, we initially viewed
the
ceremony as the boring, legal part of the day that you had to endure
before you
got to begin to enjoy and really
express yourselves. With you as our celebrant, this was not the case.
We both
thoroughly enjoyed our ceremony
because it was personal and heartfelt, and a very clear reflection of
the
feelings that Kurt and I share for each other. The thought and the
planning
that you had clearly put into our ceremony meant that it really felt
like it
was all for us – there was no hint or indication that we have done this
a million
times before!
Every
guest that attended our wedding has since told us how spectacular they
thought
our ceremony was. They loved the stone pouring and the love letters and
most
had never seen either of these rituals done before. And speaking of the
love
letters, I highly recommend this to all couples for your future
ceremonies.
They add a personal touch that I can’t even describe, and for some, it
may be
the only love letter they ever receive from their new husband!
Thank
you again for your patience, persistence and good humour throughout our
entire
wedding process. One of the photos I have attached is of you speaking,
and if
you look in the background my niece Gracie is behind you pulling on
your
microphone stand. I like this photo because I think it is a great
representation of the service that you provide. As with every other
aspect of
your professional and obliging performance for us, you happily pushed
on with
your job despite the obvious
interruptions.
Because
of the love and personality that you bought to our big day, you will
always
mean a lot to us both.
Thanks
again,
Beth &
Kurt, who married at Indooroopilly Golf Club in a ritual-rich ceremony
that included a sand ceremony.
Thank you for
our wedding ceremony, it was perfect. Our guests have commented on how
different our ceremony was and how they really enjoyed it. From our
first contact with you until the end of our ceremony you were there to
answer any questions, helpful information and ideas. Thank you again
for a perfect wedding ceremony (and a great start to married life). -
Mandel
& Troy who married on the deck at Forest Lake in a ceremony that
included Mandel's daughters.
You made us
feel very
involved in all aspects of the ceremony. We were very happy with the
whole experience. There is not one thing we would change (even the
laughing). We had our guests coming up and saying throughout the whole
night that it was one of the best ceremonies they have ever been to and
that they have never been to one like it before.
-
Kristy and Brad, who married in a
very happy ceremony at Woodlands of Marburg
I was able to
go into the ceremony knowing exactly what I wanted to express to my
husband and the way in which I want to live our married life. Jenny's
way of working through these things with us allowed me to see our
wedding day as not just a day but rather, a beginning of a lifetime. -
Olivia
Everyone
at
the ceremony really enjoyed the wedding. The ceremony was
special and not your typical wedding ceremony. Jennifer - I was very
happy with your ideas and the way you carried out our ceremony. Thank
you. - Eric
Thank you for performing our wedding ceremony, but thank you also for
drawing us together in heart & mind. You will be in our hearts
& memories forever - Olivia
You did such a fabulous job of our ceremony. Thank you so much.
Eric and
Olivia married and blended their families in a traditional ceremony at
Redcliffe that included a Family Unity Candle.
We have received numerous words of
praise on how lovely the ceremony was, some even stating it was the
best they had attended. For us personally the ceremony was the
highlight of our wedding. The ceremony itself was especially moving for
us and also our guests. -
Christa and
Barry who married aboard HMAS Diamantina at the Brisbane Maritime
Museum.
The ceremony was a wonderful experience - everything said was
beautiful. Guests commented it was so nice it was like a wedding. it
made us feel the day was a very special way to introduce our baby.
We'll never forget it. - T
Everyone at
the
ceremony commented on how great
the celebrant was! You really made us feel special! You gave us so much
time and support and advice. It was like you were a wedding planner and
Fairy Godmother rolled in one. Thank you so much -
Maureen and Michael who married poolside at Michael's mother's home in a sunset
ceremony that included a handfasting and other Celtic elements.
Thank you for guiding
us through the marriage
process. I felt like I could completely trust you from the moment I saw
your website, you just screamed 'organised!' thank you for a beautiful
ceremony and a wonderful memory - Natalie
& Ihab whose wedding at Boulevard Gardens is featured in the 2009
edition of Brisbane Bride
Our
Ceremony was so beautiful and meant so much
to us. As emotional as
the day was for me I’ll remember it with great love in my heart and
gratitude
to you for making our day so precious - K & G
Many
thanks for the beautiful ceremony you created for our wedding. You
helped to make the most important part of our day so special. We
so much appreciate all the exceptional efforts you made to have
everything perfect for the day - far above and beyond what was
required. We really enjoyed working with you - it was a real privilege
to share that special time in our relationship with such a kind, caring
and professional celebrant. It was so helpful to have your advice in
all that was required before and
after our wedding also. Thank you for the special keepsakes you
organised to ensure an
unforgettable ceremony is remembered forever. With much
appreciation. - Laura and
Casey,
who married at the Latrobe Chapel.
From
my intial website enquiry every aspect was made extremely easy. My
enquiry was replied to within hours and the obligation-free meeting
confirmed our good feelings about Jennifer. She was extremely
professional, but friendly and welcoming, asking us about our
relationship and wishes for the ceremony in order to make it personal
and special for us. It did not feel that she was simply asking the same
old routine questions that may be asked to every couple and that she
was genuinely interested in getting to know us as a couple in order to
design a unique experience just for us. The questionnaire made it easy
for us to express out feelings on paper without the anxiety of writing
our own vows. When we read the draft copies we both had tears in our
eyes and couldn't believe how well our notes and dot points on the
questionnaire had been sculpted into beautiful words. Jennifer was
always prompt and punctual when scheduling feedback dates and for the
rehearsal. Involving the families in the rehearsal also eased their
nervousness on the big day and gave us the opportunity to ask any
questions beforehand so everything ran smoothly on the day. At the
ceremony Jennifer was well presented, courteous, and helpful. The whole
ceremony ran extremely well. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how
wonderfully intimate it was for many weeks after and how thoroughly
they enjoyed it. We have no hesitations recommending Jennifer to all of
our friends in the future - Sally
& Corey, who included a Unity Candle lighting in their traditional
ceremony held at Rydges, South Bank.
And
a second thank you from Sally & Corey: Just
a big thank you for everything you did for us in preparation for,
and on the day of our wedding on the 12th January. everyone has been
raving about the ceremony and how wonderfully creative and intimate it
was. we had an absolute ball and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. our
photos also turned out incredibly well, due to your input and
suggestions about positioning and layout of the ceremony. I know we
will always remember the day as one of the best in our lives, thanks to
your professionalism and assistance on our special day.
Many thanks again.
Thank you for making our
ceremony both magical and memorable. It was wonderful to have you as
our guide as we took this step together and your touches make the whole
day run more smoothly. Our friends and family commented on how special
the ceremony was - especially the references to the 'boys' and Mick's
cleaning abilities! We couldn't have imagined a more perfect day. Thank
you again for being part of it! Love, Mick
and Bec, who married at Roma Street Parklands in a twilight ceremony
that was a surprise for their guests. Read their review of

the weather was gorgeous. - M & D
M****
and I would like to say thank you so much for the beautiful ceremony
you composed for us. We had many people come up to us over the night
and comment on how lovely and personal the ceremony was. Both M****
and I really enjoyed the ceremony and also wish to thank you for
the added extras you provided to us and the kids at the end of the
ceremony. You told us not to worry about the ceremony as all would work
out on the day and it did just that even though it rained. Thanks again
we will send you a picture once we get some. - K & M
The
whole process from first meeting to ceremony was a pleasure. The

everything we both wished for. The atmosphere was relaxed & loving
and we
had the best time. Thanks also with all the help and advice you gave us
for the
preparation of the day and all the paperwork. We are so glad we chose
you as we
wouldn’t have been able to have the ceremony we wanted if it wasn’t for
you and
all your wonderful suggestions. May life always be kind to you. Once
again,
thanks heaps. We have such fantastic memories because of you. -
Deb and
Bruce who married under a chuppah in a ceremony rich in Jewish

You are a
complete package Jennifer. You offer everything on your website we
required, all of exceptional quality. We didn't need to be afraid of
asking any silly question - you lovingly answered all. [Your performing
of the ceremony] was exceptional - very clear and patient. Ability to
help us out with words and directions was excellent. -
Heidi and Michael, who held their combo
wedding and naming ceremony for their two sons in a family oriented
ceremony in their own garden.
Jenny, you
were absolutely wonderful. You put an amazing ceremony together on our
behalf.
You pieced together so beautifully the journey of our relationship, not
only
were Kenneth and I moved by your words, but so was everybody else. You
were so
organised and that made Kenneth and I feel so at ease. You were very
easy
to keep
in contact with and you were very persistent and quick with your work
without
it seeming rushed. Truly did put a lot of time and effort into making
our special
day magical. -

married overseas and came back to Australia to reaffirm their vows in a

M*** and I
would like to thank-you from the bottom of our hearts, for your
fantastic job. We had so many positive comments about the ceremony. You
made our ceremony unique and special. We also had some people ask if
you knew us. I felt that it is a big compliment with regards to
how you personalised our ceremony.
I want to pay
particular attention to your professionalism, from your stationery,
website, magnets and the meetings we had with you. I like to think that
I am professional in my job and it is sometimes hard to find it in
others. - N & M

I can't
really
begin to put into words how amazing that ceremony was. We had people
come up to us afterwards and explain that they had not
cried at
their own wedding but found themselves in tears at ours.
I am not an
emotional fellow generally speaking, however I could not
help but be
moved. A formal
thank you is being put together by Bridget [the note to the right]
however in the meantime, I
wanted to thank you so very much for what you did.
Your attention to
detail, care and experience really showed through.
You
even had my
stalwart best men in tears!! Thanks again
Jennifer. -

So many people commented how warm the ceremony was and how much they
enjoyed it. Jennifer's relaxed personality and friendly smile made us

suggestions helped make our wedding ceremony personalised and
meaningful. We are so pleased that Jennifer shared the journey with us.

Dear Jenny,
We cannot thank
you enough for the most wonderfully moving naming ceremony ever.
We were all so touched; there wasn’t a dry eye in the park! We
loved how you made Lily’s day so special and
personalised. I have had phone calls from people tonight just to
say how much they enjoyed the day, and how it was the best ceremony
they have ever been to. We thank you for being so amazingly
talented at what you do; you have a very kind heart and that showed in
your service. Thank goodness we found your website! Thank you,
thank you, and thank you, a million times over. What a wonderful
day.

Good morning Jennifer, Thank you for you
ceremony on Sunday, everyone commented how beautiful it was, especially
the certificates.
Kind regards, Kim,
Jeffrey and Katelyn.
Our aim was to have a unique ceremony
with vows that reflected us as a couple. you were both accommodating of
our needs and had excellent suggestions for including our families and
guests in the ceremony. You clearly explained the legal requirements
where appropriate and all paperwork was taken care of in a professional
manner. During the rehearsal you handled the emotions of family memebrs
in a sensitive and careful manner, with a sense of humor. This ensured
that people were relaxed during the ceremony. Your delivery of the
ceremony was clear and most importantly, sincere. We appreciated both
your personal and professional approach. Ryan, myself, our families and
guests believed it was one of the best ceremonies we have attended.
- Ryan and Pip who married at Eve's on the
River, Teneriffe.
Jennifer, we were very please with the
way you handled our somewhat different wedding. You were supportive
from the moment we first met to the moment of us signing the marriage
register. We would not have changed anything. Thank you so much for
your help and guidance. -
Jan and
Vince.
David and I both want to thank you for
creating such a beautiful ceremony for us. A lot of people have said

had such a fantastic day.

Thank you so much for working with us on our wedding and naming of Sam.
The whole process from first meeting to ceremony was a pleasure. The

stress free and forever memorable ceremony. We were really pleased with
how the day went and all had a great time -

you to anyone. You made us feel comfortable, and your technique is
professional. Your services are
amazing and we trust you. G

great ceremony. Heaps of guests commented on how lovely it
all was, in particular the sand ceremony got many a positive mention,
so it was definitely worth it! -

marriage was one of the most memorable, and you made it perfect. -
Grandmother of the groom
I would like
to thank you and congratulate you on such a wonderful job
on Sunday. The ceremony turned out just as I pictured it. You listened
to both P_ and myself and took everything into consideration to give us
the day we wanted and not the day we settled for! Every small detail
was taken into consideration and I think if you could have controlled
the wind, you would have! Jennifer, you made, from start to finish, a
very easy, warm and informative experience. You thought of all the
little things we hadn't and came up with some great ideas that enhanced
our day. If we need a celebrant again, your our woman! - P & L
You have made
us feel very special and I hope we can keep in touch - S & Z
We loved, and
everyone present commented on the service being so
personal. You are so easy to talk to, like someone we'd known for
years. When we have baby number 2, we will give you a call for his/her
ceremony. Wish we'd met you when we were getting married. Z & B
We were very
satisfied with the way the ceremony was performed to our
"requirements" and how you fitted in with everything we wanted
out of the day and how you fitted into our "casual approach". You were
in no way pushy and were extremely helpful throughout the whole process
especially considering the short amount of notice we had given for the
ceremony and how fussy we were with what was said. You fitted in with
us, you let us express our ideas and stuck with them, you didn't try to
coerce us into doing anything different or what we did not want, you
were easily accessible if we needed information and advice. - A & M
Thanks so
much for a fabulous ceremony, it went far beyond our
expectations. Thanks for all the work you put into the ceremony it
meant a lot to our family, Love C, D & E
The Ceremony

your unbelievable organisation, research & commitment

wonderful job and made it a very special experience that we will always
remember. You are so good at what you do. The way you made it personal
to us and elegant but casual is exactly how we wanted it. I am so
please D*** chose you. Thanks again. - L
When I think
back to my initial hopes of what the day would be, they
were certainly fulfilled .... and more. It was an emotional day for all

about it. Guests are still raving about the ceremony and how personal
it was to all. - D, E & M
Just wanted to
let you know ....the lovely ceremony you performed shall not be in
vain, as our life togeher in Australia is now officially sanctioned.
Thank you for your support and your excellent work during our ceremony!
You lovely lady you.... -

Darryl whose commitment ceremony included a wine ceremony.
Thank you so
much for making our wedding such a special day. We
appreciated all the time and effort you put in to make it the perfect
day. Thank You. - K & M
This time
around the whole naming ceremony was a lot more personal, meaningful,
and well considered. The whole afternoon felt a lot more like us,
including having the kids play on the tree during the ceremony, and
that made it very special. In comparison, we felt disappointed that we
had not found you for S*****'s naming. - R & T
It was a
great ceremony and everyone is still commenting on how
professional
and wonderful Jen was. We are eternally grateful and satisfied by
Jennifer for making this day a day we will never forget - N & G

the bottom of our hearts. - L, J & O
Thank you so
much for making a beautiful day 'perfect' in every
possible way.

ceremony it was with personal touches that made all the

the ceremony and made every word and action meaningful. Thank you once
again for making L******'s day more special than we could have ever
imagined. - L & L
All of our
guests
commented on how personal,
professional & genuine your service was ....we agree
Thank you for a
wonderful ceremony. our
guests are still talking about it, as are we. ... D*** and I hope
to use you again sooner rather than later. - A & D
It was so
personal & brought a tear to
many eyes. Professional & the certificates & folders made
everything even better for memories sake. Thankyou so much! - L & J
Thank you so much
for E****'s lovely naming
ceremony. So many people have complimented us on what a wonderful
heartfelt ceremony it was. We enjoyed the whole experience and felt
that it was a true reflection of our sentiments. - K
I couldn't be
happier. The whole process of developing the ceremony was easy, with
suggestions of readings that were suitable etc. The ceremony was
perfect - relaxed and informal but really special and memorable. You
really take notice of the type of people, therefore the ceremony just
fits like a glove - N
We have already
[recommended you to a friend] - they had a naming day
for D **** last year and couldn't believe the difference &
"personal" touches at ours - J
Wonderful
ceremony and lead up. You were lovely and natural and obviously
genuinely enjoyed the experience - K
We were all
nervous but you calmed us all down. Great job - J
Jennifer, you
made the whole ceremony, and the lead up to the ceremony, so relaxed
and trouble free. The ceremony was exactly how we wanted it, casual,
friendly and intimate. Everyone commented on how lovely and personal
the ceremony was. - N
Thank you! Was
beautiful! You were fantastic. - R & P
Can't fault
you. You're warm, caring and you make it feel like a warm family
gathering with you as part of our family - K & R
Many of our
friends were very moved by the whole ceremony - K & J
I wouldn't
trust anyone else with our memories or the creation of them. - K
It is obvious
that you love what you do and when you have a special
occasion to celebrate you want someone who takes pride in what they do
to perform your ceremony. We both know that you are that person which
is why we would not hesitate to recommend you or ask for your services
again. - N & G
We thought the
ceremony was beautifully performed and was done in a caring manner. All
of our guests also said this. I found you to be very thorough when
getting information from us to make sure everything was correct - K.
Jenny, you did
a fantastic job & the comments I received from
everybody said it was one of the nicest ceremonies they had been to. -
