When I first met Tara and Jack, they were a couple that I immediately felt an instant connection. A sense that they completely trusted me with every element of their ceremony. So it came as no surprise that they trusted me to craft some truly beautiful and meaningful vows.

It’s for that reason I still get the giggles when I see Tara’s reaction hearing Jack’s vows for the very first time. Vows that were unique and genuine as the man himself. I was glad to get plenty of distance at this moment as Jack committed to many things not to mention always allowing Tara to make the final decision and of course bringing her breakfast in bed every Sunday morning. Here I am giving Jack a wave of reassurance, much along the lines of ‘you can thank me later Jack’. On reflection, I’m not sure Jack was thinking the same. It was such a beautiful moment and by Tara’s reaction, having me pen Jack’s vows was a risk they were willing to take.

Tara wrote, “Simon gave us the most memorable ceremony! His ability to understand a couple, deliver a service, make us laugh and fall in love all over again is a very special skill.

Thank you Simon, you created a ceremony we couldn’t have dreamed of! I’m looking forward to my new husband sticking to his vows and making me breakfast in bed EVERY Sunday!”

You’re very welcome Mr and Mrs W!

 
  • Hi Simon, we are on our honeymoon and remembering our wedding day. We cannot thank you enough for all that you did in making our ceremony special to us and the best everyone else has witnessed. Particularly our parents who doubted our decision for a civil celebrant – they loved every part of it! You exceeded our expectation and made us feel like we have known you all our lives. You calmed me and guided us all to make it a beautiful ceremony. Again, it was a great pleasure to have met you and shared the day with you.

  • Thank you so much for performing your duties so brilliantly on our wedding day.  You really were an integral part of things going so well and we can’t stress enough how at ease you made us feel in front of everybody.  You have received many compliments from our guests and will certainly be recommending you to all of our family and friends.  You really did help to make our special day as great as it was.

  • Hi Simon,

    Tim and I are still on cloud nine after reminiscing about the perfect ceremony you created. It was everything we always dreamt of and is something that we will remember for the rest of our lives.

    We can’t thank you enough for all your support and guidance throughout the whole experience, especially your commitment to travel all the way to the Hunter Valley for our wedding. Thank you also for keeping Tim calm whilst he was waiting for me at the alter! I instantly felt more relaxed when I saw you waiting outside the chapel for us.

    The day wouldn’t have been so perfect without you. I’ll send you through some photos of the ceremony when we get them back. If you are ever in Newcastle please don’t be a stranger!

  • We would like to thank you for the great job you did at our beach wedding. You were so professional and caring about everything and everyone. You had all the equipment set up on the beach and everyone was able to hear you clearly. You made our day so special and stress free. We have been to a lot of weddings and the celebrants don’t come anywhere near your presentation. At the end of the ceremony everyone was commenting on how personal the ceremony was and how modern you presented yourself at the ceremony. We highly recommend having Simon for your wedding. As a celebrant you would not find a more professional, caring, honest, young and touching one like him. Thanks Simon.
