We couldn’t recommend her more!
Julia was the celebrant for our recent wedding, and she was FANTASTIC. From the initial call with her she always showed such a passion for what she does, and we really appreciated how she took the time to get to know us.
She was able to make the whole ceremony so personal which we loved, and so many of our guests said how much they liked Julia. Not only was it personal but she also brought some fun to the ceremony!
She always put us at ease not just in the planning but also on the day which made sure we enjoyed the moment to its fullest.
I think the best thing I could say about Julia is that she genuinely cares for you as a couple and playing a role in such an important day. She went above and beyond with the planning, and it was lovely to receive a commemorative copy of our ceremony.
I would highly recommend Julia to anyone looking to have a celebrant and can’t say enough how special she made the ceremony on the day.
The BEST decision we made
Julia conducted our wedding ceremony and words cannot express how wonderful she made our day. From the first time meeting her, we knew that we had made the right decision. And after the ceremony, we knew we had made the BEST decision. She made our ceremony so personal and beautiful. We had so many compliments, some guests even said it was the best ceremony they had ever attended.. Thankyou! Charlie and Henry
A perfect, personalised ceremony
Words can’t describe how grateful we are to you for : 1) creating the most beautiful ceremony and 2) for all your help and advice every step of the way. From the moment we met you over zoom back in 2021 we’ve been so happy we chose you to conduct our ceremony.
Thanks for all the additional little touches along the way, including sending us Christmas cards and a new home card when we bought our first home.
We are so grateful for all your advice and guidance both in the initial zoom call and closer to the day with all the materials you sent – about the readings, ceremony types and questionnaires.
You put so much thought and effort into creating the most perfect personalised ceremony for us and delivered it perfectly on the day (you even managed not to be distracted by Peter Andre!) Everyone commented on how beautiful the ceremony was, including Mr Andre himself!
And finally we were so touched after the ceremony to receive our lovely boxed keepsake of our day and the amazing Harry Potter card!
A massive thankyou for everything once again and we will be in touch if we ever need to renew our vows! Lots of Love Jamie and Gowree
