Beautiful
Patricia was truly a dream celebrant. We had been worried that our ceremony was going to be very sterile and impersonal if it was done by someone at the council. We were also worried about pronunciations of our names, if it was going to be said by a randomer for the first time on our wedding day. This is where Patricia came in. We met up a couple months before the wedding for a coffee. During that time we discussed everything. How we envisaged the ceremony going, how we first met and the journey of our relationship. She took note of everything including the phonetic pronunciations of the names and foreign words. A couple weeks later, she came to us with a personalised programme of our ceremony, including the story of our relationship. Anything we had forgotten to tell her initially, we were able to let her know, which she included, or any tweaks we wanted made, and this was happening via email up until two days before the ceremony.
On the actual day, however, was were she shined. It’s all good writing out the script, but the way she delivered it was brilliant! She was funny, engaging and had a real command of the room. It felt personal, touching and from her performance, you felt like she had been with us on our journey from the beginning! She really put us centre stage, and we couldn’t have chosen a better person to do it. We are so thankful for her.
Just perfect!
Thank you so much for creating our beautiful ceremony! It was just perfect! We both had such a wonderful day and you created such a great atmosphere at the restaurant. Thank you for capturing all the important bits and helping us to share our story. All of our family have said how wonderful you are and how beautiful the words of our ceremony were! Is there somewhere formal we can leave you a review?!? We’d love to write something there to share with others how stress free and seamless you made the whole process! Especially given our timing!
Memorial for Stanford Taylor
On behalf of myself and the family, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to Patricia, for leading the memorial service for our dear departed father Stanford with grace, compassion, and dignity. Your thoughtful words re-engaged us as a family with a deep respect for the occasion bringing comfort and meaning to all who attended.
Thank you for honouring the life and legacy of our father Stanford Rashford Taylor, and for guiding us through this moment with sincerity and care.
Neville Taylor
