A reading is often a great way to capture the essence of your relationship.  Many couples I marry on the Coffs Coast choose to include a short reading, poem or verse during their ceremony.  There are many readings available for use.  It may even be an excerpt from a cherished Valentine’s Day card or even a favourite verse from a song.  It’s up to you.

I have some great suggested readings in my ‘Couples Area’ on my website.  Consider asking family or a close friend to share the reading with your guests during your ceremony.  They will be absolutely honoured that you have entrusted them to be part of your special day – trust me.  As a trusted and experienced marriage celebrant I can help you create exactly what you are looking for in a wedding ceremony.  Married By Simon – celebrating happiness since 2018!

 
  • Thank you Simon, for your overwhelming enthusiasm for our wedding with a difference. We couldn’t believe how dedicated and supportive you were in making it something we will never forget. To see you walking down the aisle as Lord Darth Vader was an image that will remain with us forever. Your kind words, your sense of humour and your willingness to do whatever it took to make our day just the way we imagined. Your personal service and professional commitment was unwavering and it was our honour to have you preside over our marriage… We would most highly recommend you to anyone. May the force be with you! And that’s no word of a lie!!!

  • There is no possible way to thank you for the effort that you went to, to make our ceremony as personal and perfect as it was.  Almost two months on people are still talking about how wonderful you and our ceremony was.  Thank you so much Simon from the bottom of our hearts.  You made our day perfect.
