An incredible ceremony celebrant was amazing

Our celebrant was incredible. She went above and beyond to make our special day perfect. She was very organized and has a great sense of humor which we love. All in all it was a perfect ceremony hosted by a wonderful celebrant🥰

Amazing custom ceremony

We worked with Ceri to develop a ceremony that was unique to both myself and my husband. She was responsive to what we wanted, and she offered amazing and helpful suggestions. She has so much experience and was lovely to work with. The ceremony was absolutely perfect the day of, with the right amount of humor and seriousness. Our wedding day was the best day of our lives and we attribute a large part of that happiness to Ceri. Highly recommend!

Ceri amazing wedding celebrant!

We honestly can't recommend Ceri enough, she was an amazing wedding celebrant, from the word go she was super friendly, professional, and very helpful.
We came off our first zoom with her and we both said what a really lovely person she was, we both knew that we had found the celebrant we wanted to marry us.
Our service was so beautiful and everything we hoped it would be, we really couldn't have asked for more.

Perfect celebrant for our wedding!

Ceri performed our wedding ceremony in October, and we could not have chosen anyone better! Hubby and I were both feeling a little anxious about the whole thing but Ceri was so wonderful helping us put together our vows and a simple but meaningful ceremony. She made a point of calling to connect with us since we were from out of town, and making sure the ceremony was exactly to our liking.
Ceri is a warm, calm and lovely person and I highly recommend her for a wedding celebrant!

Ceri was beyond exceptional!

Ceri put so much time and effort into not only getting to know us, but seeking ways to personalize our ceremony to ensure we had the best experience possible. She made our day literal perfection and ensured our vows etc were magical. I can not say enough about how beautiful and thoughtful the ceremony she created for us was. It was utter perfection.

Better than we could have ever imagined!

We absolutely adore Ceri. Her sweet and silly personality made us feel so comfortable right from the start. Neither of us knew exactly what we wanted out of our wedding ceremony, so Ceri really helped us to navigate that and create something truly beautiful. Helping to create our ceremony was actually a lot of fun. We each individually filled in a questionnaire sent to us by Ceri, and she used our answers to help build our ceremony from scratch. It was such a lovely surprise when she emailed us our first rough draft on Valentine's Day and we got to see what we had said about each other in the questionnaire. She was so great about changing bits and pieces of it as we went along making sure it felt true and authentic to us. We have had so many compliments on how customized our ceremony was. You can really tell that alot of time and energy went into it! She had us all smiling, laughing and crying (even our photographer shed some tears).
Thank you so much Ceri! It was a pleasure working with you.

Understanding, creative and well written.

Ceri officiated my ceremony this past weekend. She approached the work with a level of empathy as well as candour necessary to write a ceremony that captured our experience as a couple and created a blue print for love.

Ceri, was easy to speak to about our changes and happy to write new ideas often right in the moments we told her, she would live edit documents with us. She was on the ball and we never had to wait days to hear from her. I appreciated that as some vendors do not seem as eager to work with you.

Simply an easy going process, I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone in the area looking for an officiant. Especially to people who are looking for a more unique and expressive ceremony. I had guests compliment our ceremony that it wasn’t the “run of the mill” ceremony, and that they appreciated it wasn’t boring, and showcased us.

Another point to note is we had some issues come up, and Ceri made sure to help us through them in a way that can only be best described as full of compassion.

Most comfortable celebration ever!

We loved having her as our officiant. She was the ‘border collie’ of wedding with her flexibility, keeping things on track, responsiveness, and her professionalism. It was an all around great experience. She was able to customize our ceremony based off life questions we answered in a surgery for her. It was very intimate and precious. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone.
