We couldn't have had a better celebrant, a better support,
a committed team player as well as a skilled leader. We couldn't have had
a better wedding.   Thank you for your commitment and energy!

It was wonderful to hear a personalised ceremony
that didn’t come ‘out of a drawer’.

The ceremony was exactly as we had imagined and more. Your presence
and the awesome respect you embodied during the ceremony and the grace
with which you drew everything together was amazing.

Your choice of poems and themes enriched our marriage ritual and the
way in which you incorporated our chosen readings
was intelligent, heartfelt and memorable.

The fabulous ceremony was thoughtful, personal
the perfect blend of two cultures.
 

Craig and I have read over the ceremony you prepared for us and we love it!
Thank you. it is fantastic and we are very pleased with it.
You really do have a gift with words.

Your level of research and quotes you selected were so appropriate and so well suited
to our characters. Your intuition knew exactly what we wanted for the ceremony
and your speech reflected our personalities and made it so very personal.
It was as if you had known us for some time.

I don’t know how you did it, Alan, but you had a way of calming us on the day.

I want to let you know how happy we were with the ceremony, you were fantastic,
and everybody is still talking about it!!

It was impossible for you to know this at the time but so many of our guests
complimented you on your beautiful, eloquent speech.
There was hardly a dry eye left in the place,
even with the informal and unconventional nature of the day,
all the humorous comments you made
and the light-hearted nature of your address at the ceremony.

Many of the guests commented on how lucky we were
to have someone marry us who knew us so well!!
This was such a testimony to your hard work in spending time getting to know us
and then preparing a ceremony that reflected this knowledge.
You did such a good job that guests assumed you were a friend of the family!!

You remain to me a chance encounter that has left a warm and enriching memory.

 It is a rare talent to get the ‘feel’ of a family in such a short time
but you have that gift,
and at the same time you conducted the ceremony in a way
that truly supported and respected us.
