When my Grandmother recently passed away there was a lot to organize. She had passed in Queensland and the family had decided she would be cremated and her ashes laid to rest with her mother and father in Uralla.

When the family decided to hold a small informal service, I contacted Jackie with about 1 week to prepare and being separated by about 550km we were able to organise everything promptly over the phone and by email.

Everything was arranged the final details were filled in on the spot. Jackie preformed the ceremony professionally and with great compassion. It was a really nice send off of my grandmother.

The only downside is waiting 3 months for the burial certificate though I do know that Jackie had a sickness in the family at the time.

Approximate cost: $250

Jackie offers her services as a civil marriage celebrant in the New England area of New South Wales also covering the Mid North Coast, the Hunter and Newcastle regions.

While we did not have Jackie do our wedding service as we had booked another celebrant we found her very friendly and helpful. She was able to offer us plenty of advice and I would gladly recommend her services.

We did have the pleasure of hiring Jackie and Derek's classic 1928 Chevrolet for our wedding transportation.

Derek arrived to pick up the bridal party with plenty of time to prepare, he was very friendly, knowledgeable and dressed very smartly. The car was clean and polished and dressed with the ribbon and flowers we supplied (although they do supply these unless you want something different)

We hired the car for about 4 hours, having Derek take us to the wedding ceremony, around to photograph locations and back to the reception. The cost was more than reasonable and the whole experience was exceptional!

Highly recommended!
