Hi Elaine
Thanks you for a lovely ceremony, it was very well delivered and we were very proud to have you as our celebrant.
Thanks again, Brian and Cindy, Little Bay Chapel, 21st September, 2013
Hi Elaine,
Thank you so much for being our celebrant! The ceremony was actually our favourite part of the day - it turned out so lovely and we loved that it wasn't too overly formal, it was nice and casual and relaxed with a lot of laughs!
We received our certificate of marriage the other day! It came quite quickly! Thank you for arranging everything for us, it definitely took the stress out of it all knowing that you had it all under control :) And that is good to hear that we were easy to work with - we didn’t really know much about what to do in the beginning (and maybe even right up to the rehearsal - which was very helpful btw!) so you were definitely our helping hand and taught us lots of new things!
Thank you again from both Andrew & I, and we will be sure to recommend to you any friends getting married in the future :)Cheers, Deb and Andrew
Wendy’s Secret Garden, Lavender Bay, 14th September, 2013
Hi Elaine, a big "thank you" for the lovely ceremony last Saturday afternoon at the Secret Garden Lavender Bay. I am father of the bride, Debra McArthur who married Andrew Henderson. You brought dignity as well as humour to our special day and your being in photos means we have a lasting memory of the "official" side of the ceremony, if I may put it that way! Also having a rehearsal on the Friday was commendable, it allowed us to relax when the real ceremony took place. Good luck in your future, if possible we shall recommend you to others.
Regards, Barrie McArthur. (father of the bride) Wendy’s Garden, Lavender Bay, 14 September, 2013
Dear Elaine,
We were very happy with your service and would recommend you to any friends who were looking for a celebrant.We got nothing but compliments from everyone who attended! Once again thanks for your service, we thought it was wonderful.

Hi Elaine,
Dear Elaine,
Thank you very much for making our ceremony very warm and beautiful. You helped us so much to avoid any stress during the ceremony and made everyone at ease and happy. We truly enjoyed this day. The ceremony was perfect – just what we wanted and beyond.

When we met Elaine after speaking to four celebrants, we knew she was the lady we could visualise marrying us, she just fitted the idea we had in our heads. Elaine adapted to suggestions quickly, going away and working on different wordings for us so in the end we got the ceremony that represented our feelings about marriage and each other. Thanks for working with us with the last minute changes. It was much appreciated.

Dear Elaine,
"I've known Elaine for years; she was my high school English teacher. More recently (mid 2008) Elaine was my Marriage Celebrant. She has great knowledge of the marriage process and as such was invaluable to my wife and I. Elaine crafted a brilliant ceremony which included readings she suggested and a creatively placed duet by my father and friend. As Elaine prepared all legal documents, registered our marriage, etc. in a timely manner, my wife and I had a stress free wedding.
Thank you again Elaine!

Hi Elaine
Thank you so much for being our celebrant and your kind words!
I think the ceremony rates as one of my favourite highlights of the day - it
was really beautiful and it felt sincere, personal and honest (the way we
wanted to be) and a big part of that success is because you conducted it so wonderfully.
Many people have commented at how they were moved very close to tears during
the ceremony - I guess that is the ultimate compliment :)
Thanks so much once again,

We are now home safe and sound after a fantastic weekend of

you've seen a lot of them! Wasn't the weather great, and only a slight breeze
as well which was a bonus. Yes I was thrilled with the readings and will enjoy
reading back over them.
You did a wonderful job on the ceremony and we have had a
lot of people say how great you were. And we’d love you to record our marriage

I would like to thank you so much for your services, our family and
friends thought the ceremony was just lovely, it was a shame about the weather,
but in all it was such an amazing day, and we managed to get some
beautiful photos.
I would like to also thank you for your prompt preparation in the lead up
to our Wedding day, words cannot express just how easy it was for
us to prepare our marriage license. It was of great help - Thank you.
I have attached a couple of photos you may like. Once again, thank you so much for everything, Steve and I just wish we could re-live our Wedding day exactly how it panned out, I am sure many other couples who are looking for a celebrant will be happy with your services. Thank you once again, Crystal and Stephen Bonanno, The Mirage, Newport 2nd October, 2011

Hi
Elaine,
The
wedding was just great. We also agree the ceremony was simple yet it was
exactly the concept we were after. I am sure you have heard this many times,
but we were so caught up in the excitement, moments just sped by and we are
very much looking forward to the video to appreciate what happened!
Thank
you so much for your help and advice. You very quickly understood what we were
after and to offer agreement, support and advice where necessary.
Rupinder
and I will always look back on this period, basically from January, with
feelings of complete happiness, obviously because it culminated in our wedding,
but also because everything just happened so easily, so simply, without any
stress or tension. It was a really serene and beautiful experience throughout.
You helped with that!Once again it was an absolute
pleasure having you conduct our wedding and we still look back on the day with
wonderful memories.
Thank
you so much, Warm Regards

I don’t know where to start to say thank you.. The day was
great and the ceremony was even better. Everyone was saying how great you were
and how intimate the ceremony was.We received the marriage certificate on Tuesday, 3 days
after the wedding, so there are no issues there.
Wade and I will definitely never part we are best friends as
well as husband and wife.. Our journey will be long and lived well

Dear Elaine,
This was an email that I was
meaning to send over 2 years ago.In May 2008 you married my husband
Joel and me, we had a wonderful wedding, it was exactly what we both wanted and
you were perfect as our celebrant. We both look back and feel that it was the
most amazing night.Thank you for making our wedding
such a beautiful, memorable, stress-free event.
Kind regards, Jane Medlin, 16 June 2010
Dear Elaine,
We can’t THANK YOU enough for all your help, advice and
finally the beautiful ceremony you gave us on our wedding day!
You were extremely helpful without being pushy, you were
patient, happy and approachable when helping us write our ceremony. You are efficient and organized and (thank
god) reminded us of all the things we needed to do!
I guess until the ceremony is in motion, it’s not easy to
imagine what it will be like and how it should run. We are so glad we worked with you and felt so
much meaning in our vows on the day.
Your light and pleasant personality was something that most guests
mention to us afterwards. They loved your
sense of humour.Please use these words as a recommendation to others.
Thank you! Allison and Beau13th March, 2010

We just wanted to say thank so much for the perfect wedding ceremony. We had an amazing day and know all of our guest did too. Thanks also for all of your effort leading up to the wedding.

When we met Elaine after speaking to four celebrants, we knew she was the lady we could visualise marrying us, she just fitted the idea we had in our heads. Elaine adapted to suggestions quickly, going away and working on different wordings for us so in the end we got the ceremony that represented our feelings about marriage and each other. Thanks for working with us with the last minute changes. It was much appreciated.

Dear Elaine,
"I've known Elaine for years; she was my high school English teacher. More recently (mid 2008) Elaine was my Marriage Celebrant. She has great knowledge of the marriage process and as such was invaluable to my wife and I. Elaine crafted a brilliant ceremony which included readings she suggested and a creatively placed duet by my father and friend. As Elaine prepared all legal documents, registered our marriage, etc. in a timely manner, my wife and I had a stress free wedding.
Thank you again Elaine!

Hi Elaine,
We would really like to take this opportunity to say a very big thank you for being part of our special day and the ceremony that you put together for us was beautiful and summed up everything that we wanted to say. The rest of the day was fantastic and the small group of family that was able to share the day with us all said they had a good time...we were so glad the weather played it's part on the day also since that week had been like typical Wellington weather.
Any questions or suggestions that we had, you were always easy to talk to and you made us both feel at ease at such an important time in our lives. A big thank you for writing such a beautiful ceremony especially for us, and for your friendliness and warm heartedness, as it really did make our day special. All the best Elaine,

Good morning from both all of us. Thank you so much for your kind words and the beautiful, beautiful ceremony which you officiated for us. It was just the most beautiful day and your grace and warmth came through. We really enjoyed it! I kept nudging Ray as he was not listening to the song! He wanted to chat with me! Jillian Leifoff was our photographer and we would love to have some of our photos on your site, very honoured!
What was such a lovely touch was the ceremony which we found, printed out from you on that gorgeous paper, what a great keepsake.
We actually wanted to ask you to stay for dinner but you had gone already!Thanks again Elaine, still on a high, can't believe we are married!
Many greetings... now we are off to Samoa for 1 week. Will be in touch once back...

Hi Elaine
We thought your service "outstanding" and cannot think of anything more you could have done. Your website is very helpful with suggestions
for caters etc (FYI we were very pleased with Avocado catering and Romeo's for decorating. The food was delicious and the staff very pleasant) and the wide variety of possible ceremonies that you provided to us meant we were able to identify a format that suited us perfectly. Your suggestion to extend the celebration with the sand ceremony (of others you suggested) added enormously to the pleasure of the ceremony and was enjoyed by all who attended. We have already
given you a glowing recommendation to a couple planning to marry in December - I hope they have followed through.Attached are a few pictures from the wedding. Please feel free to use them if you wish.
Once again, many thanks
Warm regards
Kate and Paul.

We wanted a simple
ceremony and Elaine took the time to go through the procedures with us as well
as showing us sample vows. It was
brilliant and both of us, including our families, were very pleased with the
service.

Hi Elaine
Thank you for conducting our wedding
last Sunday. It was just perfect! We both enjoyed the ceremony and we thought
you organised things extremely well.
Thank you for your assistance and advice leading up to the day, it was a
pleasure to deal with you.Kind regards, Rachel and Otmar
Dear Elaine
Thank you for helping make our day so
special. We thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end and both felt
that it was the happiest day of our lives. I agree that Meg’s singing
brought down the house. She was absolutely beautiful. I’m sorry
that we didn’t get a chance to thank you properly in person, but we seemed to
get swept away with the excitement after the ceremony.
The remainder of the day continued to be
as happy, relaxed and special for us all. Brett gave a very moving speech
which once again brought tears to everyone’s eyes.
Thank you once again for everything,
Elaine, and we look forward to receiving our registered marriage certificate in
a few weeks. We will certainly recommend you without hesitation!
Best regards

Hi Elaine,Just to say thank you once again.
I was very impressed by both your professionalism,
your friendliness and communication skills, so if you don't mind I will
definitely recommend you to a number of friends of mine who have recently
gotten engaged also.
Thank you once again for everything, you have been
most helpful and lovely.
All the best

Hi Elaine,
It was such a pleasure to have you as our
celebrant. You are just simply brilliant and led both of us to another stage of
our life. Besides saying, "THANK YOU SO MUCH", we really do not know how
else we could express our appreciation.
We are heading to honeymoon soon. We will carry your words everywhere.
Love,
Joanna and Albert
