Hi Cath,
We wanted to write you a quick email to thank you. We could not have been happier with our decision of choosing you as our celebrant. We had no idea how or where to start with drafting a ceremony and you guided us through it all.
We received a lot of wonderful compliments with the ceremony. All our guests were giving us great feed backs and compliments with how the ceremony was held; how organised it was & how everything ran smoothly from the very beginning.
You were very professional, organised and definitely exceeded our expectations!
We could not have had a successful wedding without you!
Thank you!
Regards, Josh & Charisse
Hi Cath,
Just wanted to thank you again for everything that you've done for us throughout the whole process. Couldn't have asked for better celebrant, you were absolutely amazing. You listened to our ideas, shared your thoughts and helped us to create a perfect ceremony.
The civil ceremony was wonderful and our guests kept commenting on how personal and intimate it was. We’re very lucky to have found a celebrant that was creative, fun, warmth and understanding, and I felt so confident that the ceremony would be superb knowing it was in your hands.
Also, thank you for providing everything during the ceremony especially the bottle(s) for the sand ceremony and for all the suppliers you recommended.
We will definitely recommend you to everyone xx
Anna & Thien
We first saw Cath at our friends’ wedding and were impressed with what we saw. Especially as she was able to conduct the ceremony in Cantonese for the main parts as we had a few family members who couldn't speak English. Our friends who were married by Cath spoke highly of her and we trusted their recommendation.
When it was our turn, we met Cath at her home and felt very assured. Cath is very friendly, patient and extremely helpful by explaining everything we needed to know and expect. From start to finish, Cath was very professional and diligent in her work. Communication and follow up was prompt and accurate and she always thinks a few steps ahead. Our wedding day ran smoothly and we thank Cath for a great day. We have no hesitation to recommend Cath to all future couples.
To dear Cath
Thank you for the way you spoke of dad and putting everything together in such a nice way.
Jenny and the all the family.
Hi Cath,
I hope this email finds you well.
You performed a renewal of vows ceremony for myself and my husband Gregory at the Tea Room Gunners' Barracks on the 31st of March 2012. At first I wasn't sure whether I should send this email but eventually decided that I wanted you to know.
I would like to thank you for insisting that my father "give me away" despite my initial reservations of appearing ridiculous due to being already married therefore "not eligible" to be given away.
He passed away a couple of weeks ago after a short battle with a very aggressive lymphoma that shocked everyone in its rapidity to claim his life.
I was looking through photos from our beautiful day in Sydney last year and besides thinking how happy and proud he looked, I recalled our conversation during a meeting at your home when you convinced me to let Dad walk me down the aisle ... despite my protests of "but it's not a real wedding."
Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that I'm so glad you insisted, so thank you very much.
Kind regards, Richelle
Thanks again to you and your husband for a great ceremony. Further thanks also for the sand ceremony idea, there were many lovely comments from the guests on this.
We went up today to BDM and secured the official certificate, and we will get the apostle stamp later this week. All in all we had a great day and the weather was sensational.
Again thanks for your personal and professional assistance to guide and complete our marriage.
Kind Regards Christopher
Hi Cath,
Cath was great, my fiancée was still over sea's and I had to all the first stage organising myself, Cath helped with all the visa preparation and told me exactly what had to be done, sent the paperwork out, she was so helpful.
Then when my Fiancée arrived, we had another meeting with Cath to make all the final arrangements.
On the wedding day it was raining, Cath offered her Ceremony Room and her own home for us to use, but we decided to proceed with our original location, the Wedding was beautiful and the day went off without a hitch (except for My beautiful wife and I )
Darren and I would like to say thank you for making our special day so memorable.
Love Julfa and Darren
Cath, thank you for delivering such a beautiful service.
I was wondering whether it would be possible to have a copy of your eulogy as the poetry was very beautiful and said absolutely what I think we should do when we lose someone.
Thank you again.
Regards Leigh
Hey Cath,
Hope you are well.
Just wanna drop a few lines to say thank you for being me and Lavin's celebrant for our wedding, and helping us a lot when things didn’t go according to the plan. Without you, it won’t make us such a memorable, beautiful and funny ceremony.
We really appreciated everything you've done and prepared for us.
Talk to you soon.
Regards, Niki and Lavin
Hi Cathy
I would like to thank you so much for the beautiful eulogy you gave for my friend Narelle who sadly passed away recently.
Your voice was like velvet washing over me and your words were very touching, doing Narelle proud. You put so much effort into your words and it was hard to believe you did not know Narelle personally.
Thank you so much also for all you did leading up to her funeral, putting everyone at ease and making the day more bearable.
I actually was just watching the video White Ladies did for the funeral and it made me realise again how glad I am it was you who did the eulogy.
Thanks Cathy and would love you to put this on your website because as far as I'm concerned you are fantastic.
Love Vicki x
Cath did an excellent job with our wedding ceremony, she is bright and bubbly and was a pleasure to have her conduct our ceremony and made the occasion stress free for us. She was helpful the entire time. Considering the weather (heavy rain in the garden), she took care of us and made sure every step was less stressful.
All our guests were pleased with how it was conducted and we are happy she went the extra mile for us considering the wester conditions. We couldn’t be any more pleased with the service she provided.
Great person to work with, fun and humorous. She made it a easy to understand the whole process. Bubbly and welcoming personality...would highly recommend Cathy to any couple looking for a celebrant.
We got great feedback from our guests saying it was a wedding they would never forget. Thank you Cathy.
Cath was a great celebrant and wrote a great ceremony for us. She was very organised and gave great advice about the ceremony.
Cath was an absolute pleasure to use as a celebrant - She made the lead up to the day as stress free as possible and was always on hand to answer any questions we had. On the day she was warm, funny and engaging and helped calm down a VERY nervous groom!
Would happily recommend to anyone.
Cath is amazing. She extremely insightful of the marriage process and who knew there was more to getting married then saying 'I do'?
Cath was professional and is definitely one the easiest suppliers to deal with. I would definitely recommend her for your ceremony.
My experience with Catherine was amazing!
She was very supportive through everything and she pretty much took all the stress. I would definitely recommend her to everyone!
Cath is an excellent marriage celebrant. She is organised, thorough and knows exactly what she is doing. She writes and conducts thoughtful ceremonies, runs through it with you step-by-step and is an absolute pleasure to work with.
Cath made the ceremony part of the wedding completely stress-free for me.

Cath is a wonderful, friendly celebrant who was clear and informative from the very first meeting.
My husband and I felt entirely comfortable and relaxed with Cath. The ceremony that Cath wrote for us was perfect, and really reflected us. We would highly recommend Cath as a wedding celebrant.
The professional and personable manner in which Catherine conducted our wedding ceremony made it a very special and memorable moment for us to look back on fondly for years to come.
Her friendly manner, great suggestions and professional advice on different service features, with a guide book full of examples and personal touches was fantastic. Then on the day she coordinated the different aspects including readings and songs made the whole event run smoothly and made our day very special.
We thank Catherine for her great work and definitely recommend her service to others.
I only came to Cath with just over 1month to go before the actual wedding date.
Cath sorted everything out and it was stress free. As we already have children, Cath wrote a beautiful ceremony which involved them and it was heart felt with tears of joy and happiness throughout the ceremony.
Cath, is a very warm friendly and professional celebrant! My husband and I were very lucky have Cath perform our ceremony.
She made to whole process fun and enjoyable and made sure it was personalised to our needs. Cath is a absolute professional!
We had such a perfect ceremony!
Cath was so supportive and helpful for my big day. Her effort made my wedding so perfect.
We were lucky to have her as our celebrant.
We found Catherine Flavell to be very friendly and efficient in providing our marriage service. Catherine took the hassle out of our wedding planning and we have no hesitations in recommending Catherine to anyone, looking for a wedding celebrant.
Thank you Cath.
Cath was recommended by the bride's father and we are glad we took his advice. As Cath was professional throughout the whole process. Starting from the initial meeting to discuss what we would like in our ceremony, by letting us pick from a list of different options in all aspects of the ceremony with valuable advice provided from Cath.
On the wedding day, everyone loved the beautiful words chosen for the ceremony and we appreciated the light humour added by Cath to ease our nervousness of the occasion.
Catherine was super friendly, extremely organised and creative. She provided extras such as PA systems, ring pillows, signature tables and a beautiful feather pen.
She was also able to present our ceremony in Cantonese Chinese which was well received by our parents and guests.
Cath is an excellent wedding celebrant. She is professional and with a lovely and friendly character. It will be an easy day for you as she is confident in her abilities and is super organised that nothing can go wrong on the day!
Cath was very professional and super organised. We just knew everything would go smoothly on our big day. She even made the effort to conduct parts of our ceremony in Cantonese for our relatives from overseas.
We could not have asked for a better celebrant. We have and will continue to recommend her to any one looking for a helpful, understanding and professional celebrant.
After meeting with family.
Dear Cath,
Our family was very pleased to meet you last night. You have helped us tremendously and we are very grateful. The fact that you also share our background is serendipitous. We feel that you really understood us, and how we want to pay tribute to our beloved father.
My dad would probably have grilled you about the Solomon Islands and people you might have known in common!
Best regards
Elizabeth
Post Funeral Service
Dear Cath,
Deepest thanks for conducting such a wonderful ceremony to farewell our father.
Your professionalism and quiet efficiency greatly helped our family. You respected how we wanted to pay tribute to dad. By doing so, you also showed your respect for Dad.
We will always be grateful for your help.
Many thanks again
Kindest regards
Elizabeth and the family
We were very happy with our choice of Catherine Flavell as marriage celebrant for our wedding day.
From beginning to end Catherine was professional and committed. This made all our dealings with her such a pleasure and put us at ease. Catherine made herself available to answer all our questions big or small and helped us plan what was the perfect wedding ceremony. Her advice was fantastic and covered so many areas that we had never even thought of. When it comes to wedding ceremonies Catherine's knowledge is truly remarkable.
We have recommended Catherine to a number of other couples and will continue to do so
My husband and I have recently renewed our vows as part of our 10 year wedding anniversary, we decided to use a celebrant and selected Cathy. She has a lot of experience and a wealth of knowledge, she asks all the right questions and was able to put together our ceremony exactly how we wanted it.
One the day it poured rain and not only did the location need changing but family and friends were all stuck in traffic, she mingled with the guest kept them informed and calm and before long we would underway.
Everyone present commented on how beautiful the ceremony was. A massive thank you to Cathy.
Hi Catherine,
Thanks again for being so patient and kind to us. You have truly provided a professional service, and we are truly grateful to you.
Catherine is extremely professional and very friendly. From the initial contact through to the completion of our wedding ceremony we always felt supported by Catherine.
The best thing about her was she made our wedding about us, it was so much more personalised then other weddings we have been to.
I highly recommend her, she is definitely the best.
Many thanks
My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better Celebrant. Cath had everything prepared to make our wedding preparations that whole lot easier.
She made us laugh and answered any questions we had with an eye for detail. Even though our wedding fell on one of the hottest days of the century, Cathy always had a smile on her face and kept our guests at ease.
I'd recommend her to anyone who will be walking down the aisle soon.
Of all the wedding suppliers that we had to deal with during our year of wedding planning, Cath was definitely one of the best.
Cath's experience in the field meant that she was always one step ahead of the game and was able to provide exceptional quality service. Her expertise in the area, her amazing organisational skills and her attention to detail is something that is extremely important to me, and as a very pedantic person myself, I found that Cath not only met but exceeded all my expectations.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Cath to any future couples who are after a professional and very friendly wedding celebrant.
Hi Cath
Just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful ceremony you performed.
Everyone loved it and thought you were fabulous. You made it so easy and relaxed which was exactly what we wanted.
Thanks again.
Helen and Duncan
Hi Cathy,
We just want to say thank you very much for being our celebrant for such an important day. The weather was beautiful as there was no sight of rain which was a big relief.
Everything went so smoothly and easy going that we couldn't help ourselves excitedly smile and yet remain relaxed. The way you had organised the entire ceremony made it so much easier for us, having so many suggestions, options and ideas and that we just had to tell you what we wanted and you were able to make it happen.
The unexpected gift from you was such a surprise, you didn't have to, and it was very nice. We're definitely going to open it up when the baby arrives. Again, just wanting to say "Thank You" - it was such an amazing day and we are both glowing.
Please feel free to use any of this on your testimonials as we recommend you as a celebrant.
Thank You and Kind Regards, Christine
