Reviews
Kind words
from the people I've had the privilege to work with
These are the words that remind me why I do this. They come from couples I've married, families I've sat beside during the hardest moments, and parents who've trusted me with welcoming their little ones into the world. Thank you all.
Weddings
Captured our story
Suzie was our wedding celebrant, and what a fabulous job she did. Not only did Suzie put together and deliver a gorgeous ceremony which captured our story and the essence of the day, but she was such a pleasure to work with. We planned our wedding from Australia so we only met Suzie about a week before our wedding day, but she went out of her way to get to know us and put us at ease throughout. She brought a sense of fun, humour and authenticity to our ceremony and we couldn't recommend Suzie highly enough.
A service that was right for us
Thank you for the amazing job you did with our ceremony. You managed to capture what we are both about and put it, so beautifully into words and a service that was right for us. We really appreciated you.
Funerals and celebrations of life
Amazing
Not even sure how to start this, but Suzie you are amazing. Losing my Nan has been a really rough time for our family and as soon as I spoke to you on the phone that day I knew you were the one. Within seconds I knew we could trust you to do our Mum, Nan and Great Nanny proud. You supported us, guided us and took what was a really difficult time and made it a celebration of how wonderful she was. Your story telling was superb, it was like you knew her and we will be eternally grateful for helping us give her the send off she deserved. You are one of a kind, a really special lady and thank you again.
Beautiful and fitting
Suzie created and delivered the most beautiful and fitting Celebration of Life for my late husband and the memories that we have from the day we will cherish forever. What makes Suzie so special is that she took the time to get to understand not only Mike, but also our family. She became our friend, forming a real bond with us all. The bond she made with us all helped so much during the Service and made it far more bearable and less formal. The eulogies and poems that Suzie created for Mike completely reflected his personality and life and they were delivered with a warm smile and a sprinkle of humour in a beautifully choreographed ceremony. Suzie was an absolute pleasure to work with and we felt reassured and supported throughout our journey and she listened to all our needs and effortlessly dealt with any last minute changes. Suzie is an absolute gem of a Celebrant and her uniqueness is that she takes the time to get to know your family, becomes your friend and creates a very special service you will treasure and hold dear forever.
Naming

Memorable
Suzie was our celebrant for our daughter's naming day. From the get go she was super quick in replying to emails and very helpful. She came to our house to meet us all and run through the agenda of the day which was so lovely. On the naming day itself, Suzie was there early to help with any last minute bits, she hosted a beautiful service, and was very patient when we had a few guests arrive late. Suzie made some beautiful certificates for our godparents along with a beautiful certificate for us to keep for our little girl. Suzie was amazing and would definitely request her services again should the time arise. Thank you Suzie.
