Catherine will always hold a special place in our family with having previously married my brother and sister and now me. Thank you for being our celebrant, it was an absolute pleasure having you a part of our special day, our ceremony was intimate as we preferred and we sincerely thank you for your service that was delivered with such kindness and care.
My husband and I had Cath as our celebrant for our Wedding and we could not have asked for a better celebrant if we tried.
She gave us exactly what we wanted, A simple wedding with no bs. It was celebrated at her house in her ceremony room, which was decorated to suit the occasion.
Cath done a wonderful job on our special day and was well worth the money spent. Couldn't recommend anyone else.
We waited to write this review until after attending several other weddings, which really confirmed how fantastic Cath was as our celebrant! From our first meeting 9 months before the wedding, her professionalism and warmth were evident. What really set her apart was her understanding that a wedding is essentially a production - something we hadn't considered - and her expertise in this regard was invaluable.
Cath's bilingual abilities in English and Cantonese were perfect for our multicultural ceremony, making all our guests feel included and comfortable. She was incredibly flexible with our ceremony script, allowing us to modify it extensively to match our vision while providing an excellent foundation to work from.
One detail we particularly appreciated was her suggestion to always remain physically connected during the ceremony - after seeing other weddings where couples stood apart, we realized how right she was about this intimate touch. Small but meaningful guidance like this really made a difference.
The logistics were handled seamlessly - she was punctual for our ceremony, had proper audio equipment to ensure everyone could hear, and her communication throughout the planning process was excellent. Our guests specifically commented on how lovely she was, and the rehearsal guidance she provided helped most things run smoothly on the day.
If you're looking for a celebrant who combines professionalism with warmth, and who truly understands how to orchestrate a wedding ceremony, Cath is an excellent choice. Her attention to detail and ability to create an inclusive atmosphere for multicultural celebrations makes her stand out.
We hired Cath as our wedding celebrant as a very last-minute decision. We were so impressed and pleased with how Cath helped us get everything in order quickly and efficiently. She was very informative on how things would go ahead on our wedding day, so we knew exactly what to expect which eased our nerves.
I would highly recommend Cath if you are looking for someone approachable, professional and with a friendly nature. Thank you again Cath and your daughter for all your care and efforts on our special day!

Catherine is an extremely caring and kind person who's professional demeanour is only overshadowed by her thoughtful and bubbly personality.
I will never ceased to be amazed at how deftly she was able to plan and organise a ceremony. Her genuine interest in her clients and her passionate need to fulfil their wishes restores my faith in the industry.
It is important a marriage comes from a place of sincerity and generosity and I can say without a doubt that Ceremonies by Cath reflects those sentiments and then some. It is rare to see this amount of respect and understanding anywhere so to have had the experience first hand leaves me feeling overwhelmingly astounded.
My only regret is that I will not be able to have Cath as my celebrant again. This is because with as wonderfull start as Catherine has given me, I know my marriage will last the test of time. Thanks for the kindness and thanks for the memories!

You couldn’t find a better celebrant if you tried. As personal or impersonal as you would like, nothing too big or too small, Cath can do it all. Thank you Cath!
From the very beginning, Cath was warm, approachable, and professional. They took the time to understand our story, our values, and what we envisioned for our special day.
We also appreciated how organized and thorough Cath was. They guided us through all the legalities with ease and made sure we were prepared for every detail, from the vows to the final pronouncement.
Thanks again for making the process so easy.
I would highly recommend Cath Flavell for anyone looking for a professional, thoughtful, and personalized celebrant for their wedding.
We started with a simple elope type ceremony which quickly turned into a full wedding. She was so accommodating and kind. She understood what we wanted, wrote an amazing ceremony and made the ceremony simply beautiful—thoughtful, meaningful, and unique. 6 stars out of 5.
Cath Flavell acted as the funeral celebrant for our mother's celebration of life.
She was warm and sympathetic, and attentive to our wishes. She guided us with sensitivity and organised a beautiful service. Very happy with the result from a highly competent and organised professional.
Diana and family
We found Cath through internet search. She made our legal day very personal and stress free. She explained the entire process very clearly and has a beautiful setup in her home. From a big smile on the door through the entire ceremony she was very patient with us. Her daughter has such a lovely personality who took beautiful photos of us.
Cath is a wonderful person and made us and our guests feel very comfortable. We have received our marriage document and she even left us certified copies. Couldn't ask for more). Great service, thanks Cath.
We had the absolute pleasure of being married by Catherine on our anniversary in her stunning ceremony room.
The journey from our first meeting to when we said “I do” was such an easy and stress free experience. Catherine was willing to answer any questions and helped guide us through the process.
Having the option for an elopement style helped remove a lot of stress and worries from our shoulders and the laughs along the way helped as well.
Thank you Catherine for being a part of our special day.
Bradley and Brittany

We had a wonderful experience with Ceremonies by Cath as our wedding celebrant. Cath was friendly, warm, and made our day truly special. She took care of all the paperwork, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. We had a great time with our two witnesses, and it was lovely to be surrounded by such great souls.
Her daughter also took some fantastic photos that beautifully captured the day. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Highly recommend her services for anyone looking for a dedicated and caring celebrant.

It was our pleasure to have Cath as the celebrant for our registry style wedding. Such an amazing celebrant. Everything was smooth from the 1st enquiry email to the wedding day. Cath was so helpful, well-organized and easy to communicate with through the whole process.
Thank you again Cath and I know that any couples who come to you will be in a good hand.
First the first time speaking and meeting with Cath, she was absolutely lovely. She was very polite and friendly, affectionate in doing her job in the best possible way, through laughter and kindness and staying professional while doing that. She is an amazing celebrate in doing her job.
If you’re looking for someone who can make you laugh and stay professional within Cath is the way to go. She was lovely and very accommodating with us. She made our day extra special. Without her, our special and most important day would not happen. Big thanks to Cath.

Thank you
Absolutely phenomenal experience with Cath. From the initial consultation to the ceremony itself, every moment was filled with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. She tailored the ceremony to reflect our unique story flawlessly. Cath’s calming presence truly made our special day unforgettable. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a personalised wedding ceremony.
I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your exceptional services as our celebrant. From the very first time we reached out to you, your kindness, knowledge, and professionalism shone through, making what could have been a daunting process much easier to navigate, especially during a difficult time for our family.
Your respectful and understanding approach, particularly in light of our circumstances with the loss in our family, meant a great deal to us. We sincerely appreciate your patience and flexibility as we needed to prolong our wedding arrangements.
Your attention to detail was evident from our first meeting, where you had meticulously prepared everything we needed, alleviating any concerns we had about the process.
Throughout the entire journey, you were a guiding light, offering support and expertise every step of the way. Your dedication to ensuring our day was perfect did not go unnoticed, and we are incredibly grateful for all the extra effort you put in.
Working with you was an absolute pleasure, and I wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone in need of a celebrant. Your professionalism, warmth, and commitment to making our day truly special are qualities that set you apart.
Once again, thank you, Catherine, for everything you have done for us. We are immensely grateful for your contribution to our special day.
Cath was such an amazing celebrant. She was extremely professional and guided us through the entire process. She went above and beyond to make our day perfect, which it was.
It was a great pleasure working with Cath and I 100% recommend her as your celebrant.
From the first time we reached out to Catherine she was very helpful and knowledgeable from the get go. We didn't want nothing over the top so decided on a low key elopement style wedding at our home. Catherine had wrote out everything we needed from our first meeting so there was no fuss and we all knew what was needed to be done on the day. We had a few mishaps from our side and was a bit later than scheduled but she was patient and we managed to have a beautiful and simple wedding with our closest friends and family. Would definitely recommend her services!
Cath was very lovely to deal with - she is friendly, humorous and makes us feel comfortable. Cath is also very organised and stepped us through all of the stages. Cath was also great at delivering on time and was flexible in accommodating last minute requests.
Well coordinated and organised celebrant.
We are very much happy and satisfied how the Ceremony by Cath is doing.There friendly guidance from the booking until the day of the ceremony till the end.Very commendable.
It's a very happy moments for us .Everyone is happy from start to finish. We would like to say our warmest thanks. Job well done.
I saw Cath's facebook page, read some reviews about her services and decided to contact her for more info. From the very first email to the last one, Cath was incredible! We decided to go for the elopement package where Cath provided the 2 witnesses needed. We took our 1 year old boy to the ceremony and it was so special for our little family. Cath got to know us before the ceremony which made the formalities personalised. We couldn't recommend her services enough. Thank you, Cath!
(from Steven)
Cath and her team are amazing from the planning stage to the day, they make it easy, special and magical. Thank you for making my family as one, and helping us plan the wedding we wanted!
(From Sharn)
Cath, made our day special and just how we wanted it, the service she put together was touching and she also mentioned my dad in a beautiful way although my dad has passed this was very sentimental to me. Cath and her team are highly recommended. Thank you for making us one! ❤️
Cath simplified the whole process from the start to finish-creating our vows, what was involved, rehearsal, to our actual wedding day. For simple and sweet, we highly recommend Ceremonies by Cath (And If you would like some Cantonese in your ceremony, it's a bonus!)
I highly recommend Cath as the celebrant if you want to get married. Very easy going, great communication. She made our wedding day so nice and simple. Has a very nice setup at her house. Thank you so much Cath and also your daughter for taking pictures.
We couldn’t be happier with the incredible job Cath did as our celebrant for our wedding on 27 October 2023. From the moment we first met Cath, her warmth, professionalism, and a genuine passion for what she does was clear. She took the time to get to know us, understand our love story, and our vision for the wedding ceremony.
The weather on our wedding day shifted mid-ceremony which meant that we needed to change locations last minute, however, Cath handled this with flexibility and composure and made sure that our ceremony was still beautiful. We highly recommend Cath to any couple looking for an exceptional celebrant.
My new wife and I were very happy with Catherine, she had everything organised, was on time and very friendly but professional about what ever she did, we definitely recommend Ceremonies by Cath for your future wedding.
Thank you Catherine for everything, me and Joel really had a beautiful, lovely wedding :)
We highly recommend Cath. She made everything smooth and easy for our special day. Very professional and accommodating. Communication was great, she responded to our queries promptly even during Christmas holidays. She clearly explained everything – process, documents etc. Thank you Cath!
Hi Cath
Thank you for all your help this far. You came across as such a warm person and we know Terri will be happy you are looking after proceedings.
Regards
Anthony & family
Cath was an amazing celebrant from the beginning to the very end of the wedding process. We were so lucky that we came across Cath during our wedding planning where she made it a very fun and enjoyable experience. She is very organised and there is no need to stress about anything as she took care of it all!
We highly recommend Cath for anyone else who is looking for a celebrant.
Cath is such a lovely person and has great passion in what she does. I had many compliments about the ceremony. A lot of people said how much fun it was and how natural, it wasn’t scripted. It was exactly what we wanted. We did a balloon release which was just beautiful ?
Cath you made it a day I’ll never forget. You made it memorable, thank you for holding a beautiful ceremony with much laughter like our rehearsals LOL ?. It will be something I will always remember. Thank you again xoxo
My husband and I just recently got married by Cath and it was an amazing experience.
The funny little moments she adds into the ceremony are truly hilarious and creates a vibe that represented my husband and I as a couple.
She made the ceremony atmosphere as personal and beautiful as it can get. I highly recommend her services as nothing went wrong during my ceremony and everything was what I had hoped for.
