Some Kind Words from Couples
Every wedding and partnership ceremony we create is unique — and so are the memories it inspires. Here’s what couples and families have shared about their experience with Civil Weddings.
Our celebrant was fantastic at communicating all the way through our prolonged (due to Covid) wedding preparations. He even produced his own speaker system to ensure good audio levels at our outdoor ceremony.
Highly recommended.
Dan and Holly
Thank you for being our Celebrant at our wedding. We’ve had a lot of compliments about the ceremony and everyone loved the warming of the rings, so thank you for sharing that idea with us.
Natalie and Kevin
The celebrant was a lovely man. He was professional and kept us informed at all time. We were very pleased with the service and ceremony was exactly what we wanted. Also very reasonably priced. We are very happy we chose civil weddings for our special day.
Thank you
Martin and Panatda
Chris was amazing from start to finish!
We had several meetings and he covered everything and made sure we had everything covered and everything our way.
He went above and beyond. So grateful that he was the celebrant that married us.
Thank you so much!
Jocie and Buster
We were so lucky to find civil weddings!
We were looking for a celebrant that would conduct our ceremony as close to a legal wedding as possible & we weren’t disappointed. Our celebrant was friendly and professional from the start. She helped us write our vows and had regular check-ins up until the big day!
On the day she was exactly the calming personality we needed and we couldn’t be happier with how everything went. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Civil Weddings to anyone looking for a professional, simple celebrant for your day.
Gemma and Chay
Thank you so much for organising a fantastic naming ceremony – it was amazing!
