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. Thank you Rach & Brett

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 paitent and we managed to have a beautiful and simple wedding with our closest friends and family. Would definitely recommend her services!

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!

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 Ceremonies by Cath. She looked after us from beginning to end. Our wedding day went so smoothly. Nice and simple just how we wanted. She has a lovely room setup for ceremonies. Communication was awesome. We got married on the 4th of Nov. thank you so much again Cath. We appreciate you. Joe & Rita

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 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.

5 years ago I did a quick google search for celebrants in my area. I came across Cath's website and realised she lived in the same suburb as me. What a great find I thought! Well 5 years on Cath has conduct 3 naming days ceremonies for my kids and we are forever grateful for her service. I have recommended Cath online through FB as well as to family and friends. Thank you Cath you are amazing !

Cath was an amazing celebrant, we were extremely happy with her work. She made the process very easy from the beginning to the end and delivered on everything she said she will do. she was even able to change her final program to suit our last minute changes. Cath handled all the paper work so we didn't have worry about that and she told us the next process. I would highly recommend Cath as a celebrant.

We were so glad to have found Cath as she was a wonderful celebrant throughout the whole process, even though we opted for a simple registry style wedding, she was professional and made our marriage ceremony a fun and memorable experience. Not to mention her ceremony room was beautifully decorated and set up ready for some beautiful photos! Thank you again Cath!

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 was 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 a fantastic celebrant. Glen and I are both happy we chose her to do our wedding. She was so professional from our first meeting to our special day; we did not have to worry about any legal documents Cath did it all for us. Thank you so much Cath made us feel so comfortable we highly recommend her.

The services provided by Catherine Flavell was wonderful. Firstly, the meeting in which we sorted the legal side of things, she took the time to ask us some personal questions about our relationship. She then turned this into a beautiful ceremony script personalised for us. As we did not have a photographer, Catherine offered for her daughter to take some photos for us. When we arrived on the day, the ceremony room was tastefully set up with flowers and seating for the guests we had invited. During the reading we all laughed and smiled. We then proceeded to sign our certificates and were well instructed to pose for some classic wedding photos. Dear Catherine, we can’t thank you enough the service was perfect.

Cath was introduced by one our close friend who she had married almost 4-5 years ago. The process of booking a Wedding Celebrant was one of the things we forgot to organise and left it to the last minute. Luckily Cath was available when we contacted her in late October. Throughout the whole process, I found Cath to be an absolute pleasure to work with. She had a contagious laugh which made our last-minute wedding planning a pleasant and trouble-free experience. Cath was methodical in her approach and from our first meeting we could tell she was clearly very experienced with all sorts of wedding format. Cath handled all of our formal paperwork like a breeze, wrote 99% of the ceremony script and helped us write our vows. She helped us rehearsed the ceremony and gave us lot of advice on placement, the entrance and photoshoot ideas. Cath was also responsive in all our dealings; she was very patient and flexible with any information request. On the day of the ceremony, Cath was there early to help setup the venue and instrumental in the successful running of the ceremony. We could not fault Cath in any of the process and we are both relieved, honoured, glad that Cath was able to help us celebrate our wedding day.

Thank you Catherine for your hard work and for making the process stress free for us. I approached Catherine looking for a celebrant to marry us before the birth of our son. We wanted to legally be recognised as a family and time was of the essence. Catherine's attention to detail and information provided made the decision quick and easy for us. The ceremony was lighthearted, intimate and quick, just as we wanted. I can't thank you enough for making the process enjoyable as it should be. Highly recommend Catherine if you are looking for a celebrant for your big (or small) day. She can accommodate all.

Cath was recommended by a friend of ours and she did not disappoint!. She was super responsive and was able to help us at a short notice. Her communication was thorough and attentive, so made us feel at ease through the whole process.

For our wedding we required a celebrant that could speak both English and Cantonese and Cath was the perfect choice! Recommended by our friends that were previously married by Cath, we found that she is very organised, professional, and provided us with all the required detail and some extra tips we needed to make the day run as smoothly as possible. We would gladly recommend Cath to anyone requiring her services. Thanks again Cath!

From the start Cath was so helpful and so so easy to communicate with regards to how we wanted our wedding done. So friendly and accomodating and professional with having our vows written. We couldn't be happier and so thankful that we found her to be our celebrant. We would highly recommend her services.

Our wedding truly would have not been possible without Cath! We were a last minute couple who had decided to elope and Cath was gracious enough to take us on at such short notice. She was helpful, patient, professional and certainly kept me calm in the final moments before I headed 'down the aisle'. Thank you Cath!

Cath provided an absolutely amazing ceremony for me and my wife. Due to extenuating circumstances, we found out 3 days before our wedding that our original celebrant was not able to officiate for us. I reached out to Cath and luckily she was available!. In 48 hours she was able to organise all the legal paperwork for us and wrote up an absolutely amazing ceremony for us. We could not be happier with what she was able to do for us in such a short amount of time. After a quick meeting with her, she was able to tailor the ceremony to reflect our personalities and this really provided the personal touch that my wife and I were after. Her communication and professionalism throughout was second to none and we would not hesitate to recommend her services.

We are very happy we selected Cath to be our celebrant for our wedding - and recommend her to others. She was thoughtful, knowledgeable, responsive and easy to talk with about different options or ideas. She wrote a beautiful ceremony and worked with us to make it our own and special; integrating a tea ceremony, some sections in Cantonese, a reading and religious blessing from our local pastor. She made each step in the process easy. Her rehearsal with us was full of good tips and tricks to help the ceremony run smoothly and maximise the opportunity for great photos - something that sets Cath apart from others said our photographer.

Cath was super helpful with our wedding. She made sure that we knew what we were doing and was kind enough to help with our vows and also even gave us a box for our rings on the ceremony. Helping us with preparing for the ceremony and also making sure our special day was went smoothly. Thanks heaps for all your help Cath.

Cath has officiated at both my parent's funeral. From the start she was prepared to meet anywhere that was convenient for us. She came with many resources of readings & suggestions of music & a wealth of knowledge down to where the service was being held. She handled the whole process with great compassion & care.

Cath was lovely and professional in every way. Warm and personable. She led us through every step with discretion and clearly explained any inquiries we had such as what was needed from our end and other things related to keeping our union a secret. What an amazing person to work with and we will be recommending her and her services to people we know. We appreciate her discretion and commitment to reassuring us through the whole process Thank you Cath!

We engaged Cath to assist us with organising the funeral of our beloved mum. Working with Cath, we found her to be compassionate, understanding and very helpful with all aspects of our mum’s funeral service – from suggestions for Readings, music choice and the placement of symbolic personal items to allow us to create a beautiful celebration and farewell for her. We know mum would have been extremely happy with her send off. We received many lovely compliments from family and friends as to how lovely mum’s service was and our family cannot thank Cath enough for all that she did for us. Her guidance has certainly helped us through such an emotional period. Thank you again Cath. The Leong family.

Organising a wedding is a big job of itself but Cath is very organised and made everything seamless. We are so pleased that we chose her over anyone else. She made the ceremony fun which is what we love. We got a lot of compliments from our guests that she is very lovely and accommodating. 100% would recommend

Just wanted to give a big shout out and thank Cath for all her help and support in being our wedding celebrant. We were very lucky to have someone who was well - organised and on top of everything. Not only did she make the process so simple but we had a lot of fun too. From the beginning we hit it off with Cath and our meetings probably went longer than usual because of all the laughs in between. Thank you again Cath, we couldn't have picked a better celebrant and we know that any of your future couples are in good hands.

We first reached out to Catherine because we wanted a celebrant who was bilingual. From our very first meeting with Catherine, she was friendly, professional, and extremely organised and thorough. We were based interstate so we particularly appreciated the fact that she was accommodating and worked around our availabilities. She also understood us as a couple, (lots of laughter along the way!) and ensured the speech captured our personalities and what we valued the most as a couple. In light of the Omicron outbreak, Catherine was quick to provide us with the latest updates and her wisdom and advice ultimately reassured us to go ahead with the wedding as planned! We are thankful that we had her expertise on hand, especially during times of uncertainty. We can't thank you enough Catherine for making our ceremony a smooth, fun and memorable moment for us and our family. We are so grateful to have found such a fun, accommodating, and experienced celebrant (who felt more like a friend) to marry us. Thank you again! We would HIGHLY recommend Catherine in a heartbeat.

Where do I begin? I am one of many Brides, during this pandemic planning a dream wedding, hoping to have a wedding big enough…. Fun enough … bright enough… but just as this pandemic has tested time and time again… you simply cannot expect any day to turn out exactly as you would plan it to be. But finding Catherine of Ceremonies by Cath was the best decision we could have done for our Best day ever! She conquered our Wedding Day with positivity and the right attitude to keep us on track till the very day. Catherine has rich experience in the industry that made decisions easy and often she would share her opinion that would help us see situations in a different way. Her professionalism is unflawed and the ceremony she had written for us was beautifully tailored for us that we had Family and friends moved by it. It only took two face to face meetings and the Ceremony was all taken care of! I cannot thank her enough for The relief Catherine had given me. Now two weeks after the wedding she has organised a pickup of our wedding certificate (due to our full time working schedule) Catherine!! You truly are Amazing!!!

Honestly could not have been happier going with Cath! We went on a recommendation of a friend and Cath really exceeded expectations. She's caring, attentive and really made the process so simple by spoon feeding us along he way. Most importantly, she made the process enjoyable! A lot of our meetings were after a long day of work, but still after each meeting, my wife and I walked away with a smile after an enjoyable session with Cath! :)

Came across Cath on my local Facebook page and made contact, not expecting to need her services in any hurry due to Covid lockdown. Well, things changed very quickly and with her expert help, which included finding a suitable venue, we were able to put together a wonderful Covid wedding. From start to finish she managed everything in a totally professional manner while sharing a good many laughs along the way as we navigated restrictions. We could not have been happier with the service she prepared after only one short zoom chat. It was a pleasure to meet her yesterday and thank her in person for her excellent work. I highly recommend her personal service.

We found Cath online and was recommended as she speaks both Cantonese and English. Meeting her first time was lovely as she was very attentive and made sure our interests and our love story was the basis of the ceremony. Afterwards she made sure the draft of the ceremony was perfect by sending us versions until we were happy with the final product. She's very thorough and made sure the ceremony was perfect. I highly recommend Cath to anyone who is getting married! :)

It was an absolute pleasure having Catherine as our celebrant. She was friendly and personable, yet professional and organised which is exactly what we needed. We had come from overseas to get married back home and Cath ensured she made it as easy as she could for us. She kept her cool even when we were late with our submissions or when plans changed due to uncontrollable events. Even with all the changes, the ceremony went smoothly and we received lots of compliments from our guests on how good our celebrant was. On top of all this she is kind hearted and clearly understands the importance of family and shares similar values to us, so we felt at ease with her. We would highly recommend Catherine! Thank you so much :)

Cath was amazing and went above and beyond the role as our celebrant. We met with Cath several times before the wedding where she guided us through the marriage process smoothly and seamlessly. She expertly completed the documentation for us, helped us write and review our vows, and rehearsed the ceremony with us. Not only that, she also reviewed our wedding plan and gave her recommendations freely based on her experience in the wedding space. In the ceremony, Cath led the coordination of the event, briefing the bridal party upon arrival, liaising with the violinist to when the ceremony song is to played, and guided the placement of seats, floral decorations, and positions of the bridal party. Not only that, Cath beautifully spoke in both English and Cantonese. Moreover, her fees are low and are worth every cent for the quality of work, hours required and dedication to her clients. Highly recommended.

Cath was the first celebrant that we contacted and she turned out to be the only one we contacted. She got us hooked from the very first moment when we spoke to her due to her attention to details, professionalism and lots of laughs along the way. She definitely knows exactly what she is doing and made it such an easy process by helping in any way possible to make our day special. Even at the oddest hours or last minute decisions and changes, she made it work and we are so truly blessed that she was there. Just like that saying goes: "We could not say "I Do" without You!" Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Catherine!! & We definitely recommend Catherine to anyone who wants to get married. - Navneet & Janika.

Highly recommend the services provided by Cath. She is very professional and exceptionally organised. I planned my wedding from the UK before arriving in Sydney. Communication is everything, cannot thank Cath enough for her dedication with this. Also had the opportunity to bring my wedding date brought forward due to my own commitments. Outstanding service provided here. Very happy!! Thank you

Cath was absolutely incredible as a celebrant. I first got in contact with her last year not really knowing what approach to take with our wedding, but she explained everything thoroughly and made me feel at ease. She was the one and ONLY celebrant I had spoken to before our wedding and I knew (just the same way I did with my now husband) that she was "the one"! She is one of the most patient and professional people I have ever met and is always happy to assist. We had many changes with our ceremony due to unforeseen circumstances but she easily and happily adapted to them which we are so grateful for. It's no wonder she has received many awards for her work. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone! Thank you so much Cath!! :)

Our wedding was in October 2019 and we were lucky enough to have Cath be our celebrant. She is very detailed, always friendly, thorough and helpful. No matter what time or day we contacted her, she was always there and replied promptly throughout the whole wedding planning and post-wedding too! Thank you so much Cath for your humour, professionalism and always positive attitude!

Cathy was really accommodating, understanding, and very professional. Cathy was never judgmental or pushy and listened to what my partner and I wanted and tailored our ceremony perfectly for us. Cathy is super organised, punctual, and very easy to work with. The ceremony was the best part of our whole day and it all went so smoothly because of Cathy!

From a Wedding coordinators point of view, i will rate her a perfect 10 !! On the day Rica & Don brought me to have a meeting with Cath, i knew there and then that we will be in good hands. We shared a lot of laughs during our meeting. She is down to earth, very accommodating and offered helpful suggestions as well. Very Professional and easy to work with. She clearly explained the process up to the finer details. Despite the summer heat during the wedding day, she delivered the ceremony smoothly with mix tones of humour and Intimacy. All the guest are very happy. Highly recommended!!!!

If you're looking for someone who is warm, welcoming and professional, you should call Cath. From our first meeting with her to our much anticipated moment of "I do", Cath made our whole wedding ceremony planning process a breeze. She was patient and understanding and knew how important it was to us to have our wedding ceremony be balanced with the requisite legalities but at the same time be filled with love and laughter. Cath, thank you so much and we are so grateful you were there to help us tie the knot!

My husband and I are very lucky to have found Cath as our celebrant. She has been lovely to deal with and made the ‘getting married’ process as stress-free as possible for us. Communication with Cath was also made extremely easy, she was very quick to reply to any emails I sent her, and when she promises that she will do something, regardless of whether big or small, trust that it will be done. She took time to go through with us what to expect on the day of the wedding, did a mock walking down the aisle with us, which really helped put our minds at ease. Thanks Cath for your professionalism throughout our planning process, you are definitely someone we can rely on and I can’t wait to recommend you to my family in the near future!

Cath was an absolute dream to work with. I had seen Cath’s work when she officiated the weddings of two of my dearest friends whom had nothing but positive feedback about her. When it came to planning our own wedding, Cath was a natural choice for us. Cath made us feel at ease from day one with her friendly and down to earth nature. She’s incredibly organised and detail orientated, Most importantly, she was informative and very responsive to any queries. We highly recommend her services. Thank you for everything Cath!

Cath was my brother and sister-in-law’s celebrant at their wedding many years ago and from that day, I knew I had to have her one day at my wedding! The ceremony included all the legal formalities with humour that got all my guests laughing. From my initial contact, Cath was prompt and replied within the day with ALL the details you need. She is warm, professional and takes a lot of pride in her work. I could not recommend Cath enough! Even my guests told me how impressed they were with Cath’s services! Thank you so much, Cath for being part of our special day!

We had the most amazing and professional support from Cath. What started out as a “simple” ceremony became very complicated with Filipino touches added. Somehow Cath kept us on track and accommodated the changes even driving to the accommodation we were staying in to have a rehearsal the night before the wedding. The ceremony was truly beautiful and could never have gone as well as it did without her excellent support. Thank you so so much!!! Howie and Mheng

No words can describe the amount of effort Catherine put into our civil ceremony. After meeting Catherine for the first time where she helped put our plans in writing, it felt like a huge weight had been lifted off our shoulders. Catherine was very reassuring that everything would work out as planned which in turn made it less stressful. She worked with us to create a very informal civil ceremony in the time frame that we had, she was also very accommodating to our last minute changes to due to our culture and traditions. I would recommend her to all our family and friends in a heart beat. I'd give her 10 out 5 stars if it were possible.

Cath was amazing! Very caring and good with small details. We loved she was bilingual. Our ceremony was stress free and she was very accommodating to our needs. We recommended her to our friends and family. It was lovely to see her at each wedding over the years. I hope to see her at more weddings.

Cath conducted our civil ceremony over the weekend - and we couldn't be happier with how it played out!! From the moment we met her Cath was incredibly warm, professional, and just a joy to talk to - and with her help we were able to incorporate both humour and sincerity into our wedding. If you are looking for a celebrant who will make your wedding uniquely 'you,' we would wholeheartedly recommend Cath!

Cath was amazing and our Commitment Ceremony certainly ran very smoothly with her guidance. she was always in contact and did all the hard work for us. We could not have wished for the day as a whole to go any better and it was more than we certainly expected. The ceremony was fun and we have since been told there was not a dry eye in the house...Happy tears of course. It was just the way we wanted to spend with our family and friends and Cath's ceremony started the celebrations off in a lovely way.

Catherine is a nice , relaxed and friendly person with a good sense of humour . Yet , at the same time, Cath is very professional and in our case , her attention to detail meant that all documentation was correct and in place . Ruth and I had the ceremony at Catherine's house , where she has a light and pleasant area set aside for this purpose . For anyone seeking a professional Celebrant with a warm and friendly personality, we highly recommend Catherine Flavell. Caspar and Ruth .

Cath, where do we start? If it had not been for you we would have been so lost on our wedding day. Your nurturing, guiding and patient personality saw us through from our very first appointment to the wedding day. You helped us in so many ways in the lead up to the wedding. All of our guests loved our ceremony and commented on how relaxed we both were. Thank you so much for everything, there are really not enough words to express our gratitude!

Cathy is an excellent celebrant. She helped us organise our wedding very well. One thing I was really impressed is her flexibility. My fiancé and I both work full-time so we were not able to see Cathy daytime during the weekdays, so she'd suggest to have meetings at 7:30pm on Friday or Saturday during the daytime although she has her family to take care of. She is considerate, devoted, professional, well-organised and friendly. I highly recommend her.

She puts very personal touches into the service and Martin and I were so very happy that we chose Ceremonies by Cath for our wedding day. Very professional, friendly and we highly recommend.

We met Cath twice before our laid back Hawaiian themed birthday/wedding and she was so happy and fun to work with. Cath was great even pretending to be an entertainer so we could surprise our guest and was happy to dress to fit the theme. Cath made the ceremony fun and light hearted just the way we wanted and nothing was too much trouble. Cath made our day and I am so glad we found her.

Cath is the consummate professional! Her genuine warmth friendliness and personal investment ensured that this was a wonderful and momentous occasion. Importantly, her attention to detail was second to none and the support encouragement and reassurance she provided enabled us to have the ceremony that WE wanted for OUR special day, despite last minute changes. As friends but also as clients, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you Cath for your contribution to our journey together. Sally & Karen Menzies

Thank you Cath for the lovely service you did for our Dad's funeral on 6/11/2018. You were so helpful & thorough with organizing the whole service with us and showed great empathy & respect. We couldn't have done it without your assistance and professionalism. You made things so much easier and smoother for us in our hour of need. Our family and I are eternally grateful for all that you did, and would highly recommend you to anyone for funeral services. You did our Dad proud.

Highly recommend Cath as your celebrate! Cath explained and helped with so much of our wedding. Her office is filled with information on how the ceremony can be and she customised our ceremony to what we desired giving us plenty of examples to choose from since we had no idea what to do. Most importantly, Cath is professional, friendly, funny, and great to talk to. Her work is extremely thorough which put us both at ease knowing we are well taken care of. I couldn't be more happy with Cath being our celebrate. She was recommended by my sister who also used her as well as my cousin and good friend.

Upon first meeting Catherine, we were able to determine very quickly that Catherine was professional, compassionate and would be an ideal celebrant for us. Catherine provided a high quality service. She was welcoming from our first contact right through to the ceremony. Catherine showed understanding, was very accommodating to our needs, and provided helpful suggestions in planning our ceremony. Catherine continued to provide information and guided us through the legal requirements in the weeks leading up to our wedding. Catherine was punctual, and provided a service well tailored to our situation which was comfortable and memorable for us.

Catherine is an absolute delight. Obviously with us being new to the process of getting married, her guidance and confidence was comforting and reassuring so that we knew what, where and when things needed to happen. On the day itself there were a few hiccups with the weather right when the wedding was supposed to start and also the rings being late, but Catherine stepped in to help calm us down and reassured us to make sure that we went away with only great memories from the day. Her ability to communicate in both Cantonese and English was fantastic as we had a number of older guests who did not understand English. All in all a fantastic experience and we highly recommend her!

From the day we met Cath we knew she was the celebrant for us. She put us at ease with the whole process, explaining it perfectly. We had a mixed language wedding, Cantonese and English and the ceremony she delivered was seamless, the transition from English to Cantonese and back was smooth and did not leave guests wondering what was happening. While she kept the ceremony focus on us, she also kept it light hearted and kept the guests happy and interested. She went out of her way to make sure our ceremony was perfect and we could not have found a better celebrant. All our guests commented on the 5 star job she did.

We wanted a very simple wedding and that is exactly what Cath had given us. We were married at Cath's Ceremony Room and she knew exactly what we wanted. Even though it was small and quick it certainly is one to remember. Thank you Cath, i am glad i had chose you as our Celebrant. Will certainly recommend you!!!

Hey!!!! Our experience with Catherine as celebrant for our wedding was awesome! With our big number, which was beyond her expectations, she accomodated us without complaining! I would always recommend her!

Cath was wonderful to work with and we felt that our ceremony was in good hands. We had a short lead time coming up to our wedding and Cath was very professional, well organised, accommodating and fun to work with. We didn't have much time, but it came together rather nicely. She had introduced a few different options for the ceremony and since we had not seen the sand ceremony before, we thought it would be a unique way to remember the day by. Before going into our ceremony, we knew what to expect and a number of our guests had commented positively on the ceremony. Thanks so much! Alan and Michelle

We were married by Cath April 14th and could not have asked for a better celebrant. She truly cares about each couple and takes the time to get to know you, your relationship quirks, and your wedding wishes. Professional, prompt, concise, informative and abundant free-flowing communication made the entire process so easy (especially surprising when my partner and I had no clue where to even start!). From memory, we went through 10 different versions, back and forth between us. A ceremony truly tailored for us, written for and by us and delivered by a warm, friendly, colour-coordinated Cath! On the day, she helped coordinate family members and made sure everybody involved knew where they were meant to be and what they were meant to do, supporting and reassuring everybody's nerves so that it ran just perfectly. Even after the wedding, we're finding her leaflets so helpful (E.g. Change of name checklist!). You won't go wrong with Cath :)

What can I say really? Plenty! Cath provided my wife and I with the most enjoyable experience with the wedding ceremony planning. It was definitely our pleasure and privilege to use her services! She is fun to work with from the initial interview right to the to very end. I recall clearly how she was able to keep us calm throughout the whole process especially on our Wedding Day. She had everything under control and was able to make everything go smoothly. We have so much time for Cath and her husband. We'll highly recommend her services to all.

Like everyone else on the day i was super nervous when the photographers arrived & started taking photos of our preparation, but I was relaxed at the same time because i was confident that Catherine was gonna take great care of our ceremony. From when I first contacted Catherine enquiring about her service, meeting her for consultations, writing our transcript, rehearsing, to ultimately conducting the ceremony, Catherine had been truly professional & taken everything seriously (sprinkled with some senses of humour so it was very comfortable working with her). The ceremony went as smoothly as it could get & we couldn’t thank her enough.

Cath did a great job for us from start to finish. She had all the right advice and support and didn't try to charge us and arm and a leg either as so many do whenever 'wedding' is mentioned. I couldn't recommend her services more.

We got married on Saturday 24th March at Catherine's registry style venue and she was amazing. It was a casual ish wedding with family only and Catherine just adapted to our needs and family's personality instantly. We had a couple of family member running late and Catherine offered to delay the ceremony even though she had a busy day ahead. She truly is a great celebrant

Cath is an amazing and a very organised celebrant. We are so happy that we had Cath with us in our wedding. She oversaw every detail of the ceremony and more importantly, she made the whole experience personalised and intimate. We have a lot of laughters during our meetings, and her suggestions are really helpful. Thank you Cath for your wonderful work. <3 Julia & Zheng

Cath was very professional and thorough throughout the whole process. We felt great rapport and confidence that she would get us through the big day and paperwork with no issues, which was exactly the case. The tips were much appreciated by the bridal party and speaking Cantonese was helpful for during the ceremony.

Catherine was there for us every step of the way. She has an eye for attention to details and quick to response to all our emails. We are so glad to have her as our celebrant and she made our day so seamless and worried free. Everyone enjoyed the day and found out more about us through the humour of our vows which was beautifully summarised by Catherine. Thank you Catherine for the wonderful experience.

Our experience with Cath was wonderful. Her expertise and warmth meant that the lead up to our big day was completely seamless and hiccup-free. Cath really knows her stuff, but is also completely open to ideas and input from her couples, and will respond to feedback almost instantaneously. The ceremony itself was perfect. Our guests commented on how lovely and how "us" it was. Cath's Cantonese skills meant that our non-English-speaking guests could also enjoy the ceremony. We highly recommend Cath as a marriage celebrant.

Catherine is very detailed oriented and well organised, and is a very experienced celebrant who patiently answered all our (silly) questions. We had our wedding in Hunter Valley and have family members who don't understand English well. Catherine is very accommodating to our request to travel all the way up and included Cantonese in the ceremony. Her lovely and cheerful characteristics make us feel at ease. We love the little humor added during ceremony, as all guests bursted into laughters and made it a memorable day for everyone!

Cath is a very professional, welcoming and caring celebrant. Cath made the whole process of the wedding ceremony so easy, from the moment we met we knew she was the right person for the job. We were so lucky to have her to be a part of our special day as our celebrant. The love story/vow that she wrote about us was amazing and has wonderful comments from our guests about how warm and genuine it was. The ceremony was full of love and laughter and was everything we could have ever imagined and more. Thank you Cath for making our day so special. Mr & Mrs Shakya

Catherine is a very professional, accommodating and caring celebrant. We had a ceremony with no dramas, only joy and happiness. She's very thoughtful and offered us a variety of options including a traditional Chinese tea ceremony. She even conducted half of the ceremony in Cantonese for the benefit of my relatives from Hong Kong. She made everything perfect for our special day. If anyone I know ask for a wedding celebrant, I definitely recommend Cath!!

It was a perfect day for us that we will always cherish, thank you Cath for helping us making it come true!

Cath was such an effective and efficient Celebrant!  She was very accommodating and very easy to communicate with. My husband resides in Sydney and I was in another country when we were doing our wedding preps. He was the one who contacted Cath and did the initial interview with her. Cath made sure that my husband (fiancé at that time) was at ease with the interview and she explained thoroughly all the things that we need. We were able to complete all the legal documents necessary prior to the wedding thanks to her and she also gave wonderful tips for the wedding proper that helped us have wonderful pictures!  She also did not have any issues driving all the way to Hunter Valley for our wedding and was on time. It was such a memorable day and partly because Cath was there to help us with it  Thanks again – Melvin and Paola

Cath is simply one of our answered prayers. When me and my husband decided to get married, we had no idea at all on how to pull it through. Cath help us a lot through the process. She made us feel so at ease and made our ceremony just simply perfect. She made the whole process easy and fun. I cant thank her enough for all the efforts she placed in our wedding, making it so special and worth remembering.

Catherine was well organised, friendly and knowledgeable. She is exactly the celebrant you are looking for. Due to the knowledge she shared, our ceremony time management was better than planned. Importantly, the wonderful atmosphere Catherine have created in her speech is well memorable to everybody in my wedding day. Watching back the videos, seeing everybody’s emotions that they are happy for my wedding, is all due to Catherine’s well organised speech.

We found out about Cath when we saw a wedding video of a couple with her as their celebrant. Her unique style of adding humour into the ceremony is what really stood out for us and it allowed for a much more engaging ceremony for all involved. She operates in a very professional manner, every detail, every possible situation that could arise during the ceremony, she had it covered. The process of planning the ceremony just flowed with ease thanks to just how good a celebrant she is. We highly recommend her for her unique flair and such attention to detail.

Cath was so warm, organised and down-to-earth. She provided a folder for us to pick and choose how we wanted the ceremony to run, and we also rehearsed the ceremony, so there was no confusion on the day over what we had to do. Thanks so much Cath!

Cath did a wonderful job for our wedding ceremony in October 2016. Cath spent the time to go through the whole wedding process beforehand with us from vowels to paperwork to the actual wedding day. Cath also supplies a manual for the wedding so the wedding vowels can be personalised the way we wanted. Cath showed up on time and made us more comfortable for our wedding day. I highly recommend Cath if you're looking great marriage celebrant with the personal touch. Thank from Simon and Joyee.

Cath's first impression was warm and good humoured, from the moment we met her at her front porch, we knew she would be our celebrant! The whole process of creating a ceremony was made easy, she gave us plenty of guidance, lots of positive reinforcement and laughs along the way - we even had a rehearsal, which made the big day much more relaxed! All legalities and paperwork in her capable hands, she even brought a signing table and PA system to play our processional music! Our friends and family loved our ceremony! It was one of the first they'd seen that was both outdoors and conducted by a celebrant - even so, they came to me saying how much they'd loved it, how it had a sense of fun, one of the best they'd seen! Highly recommend Cath, amazing value, and she did a great job facilitating such a memorable moment for us!

I love Cath! She is the best celebrant I have ever met, a very warm and friendly person. I was highly recommended by a few of my closest friends, so making that decision was easy. During our appointments we had many laughs, which made the relationship perfect. I believe it's one of the most important aspects for us, which made it very easy to open up about our relationship and stories of how we met. Even though we practiced during our appointments, the day came and we totally forgot what we'd rehearsed. Cath was discreetly guiding us through the ceremony. She had also made this a very personal and intimate morning for us. Cath is very prepared for happy tears with tissues on hand for us as well We'll never forget this day, thank you Cath for the sharing our moment with us and making it very special. Love Chanthy and Linda

Mr & Mrs Smith Cath was was absolutely fantastic. First meeting we had with her she knew exactly what we wanted. Ceramony was fantastic and it was so nice to involve our 5 children in the ring giving. It was simple yet so meaningful. Everything flowed and it was perfect. I would absolutely recommend Cath ! We chose to do the ceramony at Cath's place and it was beautiful. Even her presence was just amazing. I wouldn't change a thing! We done it all in just 30days and for those who want a simple yet meaningful ceramony Cath is the one! Thank you Cathy for making our day so special and including our children.

We contacted Cath for the first time three years ago when we were both living in Japan. One of our good friends had highly recommended Cath and for very good reason. Daisuke and I had changed wedding dates and plans numerous times and she was always patient, thorough and kind with working with us. It was a tough job for Cath as we weren't in the country but she was very accommodating to our arrangements. My husband spoke little English and she made sure that he felt comfortable during the ceremony as well. If not for Cath, it would have been a very stressful experience. She just made it so easy for us. I highly recommend Cath to any couple. When weddings can be so stressful, you really need a celebrant like Cath to make it straightforward and simple. Thank you one million! Beta an d Daisuke

M & M: We are so impressed and satisfied with Cath as our Celebrant. We wanted to be sure that everything was as planned, and we decided to be in Sydney a week early. We found Cath to be so detailed and thorough, knew and understood our relationship, and performed to our interest and objective perfectly. We had such a smooth wedding and great memory, thanks to her diligence, compassion and understanding.

Our wedding ceremony was really lovely thanks in large part to Cath. She is friendly and professional and putting together our outdoor ceremony, including our beautiful dog, was such a breeze with her help and advice. We were never worried or stressed out about how the ceremony would unfold because we knew that Cath had everything organised and prepared and basically we knew that she had our backs! Thanks so much Cath. Anna, Jason and Toby

Cath was absolutely outstanding from beginning to end. Our meetings and communication with her ensured that our ceremony was perfect. Our guests have all said it was the best wedding ever and that is largely attributable to Cath and her attention to detail. Our ceremony was both meaningful and fun which set the scene for a terrific day. Cath made sure no detail was overlooked and we just couldn't recommend her more highly. Thank you so very much Cath

Cath is fantastic. We found Cath when I googled English and Cantonese speaking celebrant in Sydney, and although a handful of celebrants came up, we decided to go with Cath after reading reviews and looking through her pictures and videos. She is jolly, patient, down to earth, warm and so easy to talk to - she explained the whole marriage process to us, her role, what is required from us, and seamlessly kept in touch with us through Skype and email in the months leading up to our wedding (as we are Aussies based in the United Kingdom, and went home for our wedding last month). Our celebrant speech was the right touch of sentimentality and humour, and set the perfect tone for the rest of our wedding day. Thank you Cath!

Cath was amazing! Coming from Manila, Philippines and only having 2 months to prepare, we had no idea what we had to do for our Sydney wedding. She explained everything thoroughly which helped ease some of the stress in planning. She was friendly, helpful and very professional from start to finish. Cath is an excellent celebrant and I highly recommend her services, especially for those overseas couples who are planning to get married in Australia.

Cathy is Amazing !! Her commitment to detail together with her warm friend personality, Cathy is about to bring a few words or sentences into an awesome ceremony. All our guest commented on how great she was too. I am truely grateful that we found Cathy to be part of our wedding. I would recommend Cathy to anyone.

Cathy was just so friendly and helpful. She gave us suggestions on writing our ceremony and was more than 15 minutes early on my big day to make sure everything is in order. Everyone loved the ceremony as it has the romantic, humorous, and warm fuzzy components all in one! Would definitely recommend Cathy!!

I am so blown away by the service provided to us by Cath. Not only is she amazing at what she does but she goes above and beyond and builds a personal connection with her clients. We felt so at ease knowing that she would take care of our ceremony, legal requirements and paperwork. So glad we made the choice to choose Cath for our special day.

Catherine was by far the most down to earth friendly person that we had dealt with through our whole wedding planning process. Catherine's level of detail and organisation made us feel completely comfortable to leave the ceremony in her hands. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be happier with how it all turned out. My Partner and I would recommend Cath to anyone's who's getting married.

We had the privilege of having Catherine marry us and she was spectacular all the way. She is warm, friendly, caring, great sense of humour, gave us excellent advice and guided us all the way. She made sure all the little things were done so that we didn't have to worry about it. She tailored the ceremony specific to us by getting to know who we were and our personalities which shows how caring she is to make this a special day for us. On the day, we had a slight issue with our ceremony venue and she fixed that for us by speaking to the venue and ensuring that everything ran smoothly. This was a huge help in minimising any stress we might have had. (she goes above and beyond) She is great with kids, we had a flower girl and page boy, both kids were a little tricky but she made it work seamlessly. She also coordinated the musicians we had and even arranged the layout of the seating so that our guests were better positioned. She is very professional, her guide book was a huge help in writing our vows and also for our readings. Her PA system on the day was perfect too (crystal clear). After the wedding, it was very easy to contact her while we were on our honeymoon to get some documents sent to us. I'd recommend Catherine in a heartbeat. She helped make the ceremony a wonderful event!

Cath is a fantastic celebrant! She makes things simple and doesn't make you feel overwhelmed with all that is involved with a ceremony. She understands that you have a day job and other important things to organise, so she will work with you around your busy schedule. You decide what you want to say and do on your big day, so it is unique and tells your story not a generic one. Cath is friendly, reliable, very helpful, approachable, prompt and fun! I can't recommend Cath enough!

We went to meet with Cath following recommendation from a young friend. She was attentive, understanding and ensured that she understood our story. The service was different, warm, emotive, and well balanced. Rehearsal covered each minute detail, ring placement, etc. She was quite comfortable with the floating ceremony, and we would heartily recommend her product.

Cath was the celebrant for my sister's wedding and I knew that I wanted her for mine as well. She was so easy to work with, she explained everything thoroughly and left no room for any stress on the day. She was able to work with both English and Cantonese at the ceremony, which was great as we had guests who only understood one or the other of the languages.

Catherine gave us the most beautiful ceremony, in which she captured the very essence of our love story and told it in a way that was sincere, touching and had a touch of humour which had all our guests cry and laugh with us! We are so grateful that Catherine was there as she took charge on our wedding day when everyone was nervous/emotional, and all thought process disappeared the moment it all started - especially the bride! Details from calming me down, and minute things we forgot- such as tissues (I know, how can ALL the groomsmen forget all the tissue packs I packed them, on the day?!) Cath got that covered! Our wedding ceremony was perfect/unforgettable and it wouldn't have been if Cath was not involved. She is such a professional, very warm and accomodating. I can see why she has won so many awards & have great feedbacks :-) Love from, Mark & Princess

If you are looking for a celebrant, stop right here, Cath was sensational. She is bright, happy, very social and made us very comfortable at each of our meetings before the wedding. She wrote our vows, and they were very personally written to our personalities. i am very proud of how our ceremony turned out, we had a very small wedding of our parents and our 2 kids, and i wouldn't have changed a thing. Thanks Cath for making it memorable.

Our ceremony with Cath was everything we expected. She knows the ins and outs of the wedding world, she's extremely professional and she's warm and helpful as well. Cath was honest and wise in her advice for the ceremony as well as organised down to a tee. I really, REALLY recommend her, she is great at what she does!

We couldn't have been happier with our choice in Cath as our celebrant. Very professional, patient and has a great sense of humour. Her endless enthusiasm really shows how much she cares about her clients and this was evident when she took the time to sit down and get to know us as a couple in our first meeting with her. Our guests all commented on how great our vows/ceremony were because of how personal and funny it was. Highly recommended! Justin & Jules

I would say I'd never regret for deciding on Cath as my marriage celebrant at the first sight of her picture on the Internet. She looks friendly, honest, experienced but most importantly, she's being such a professional when walking us through the whole process. I was also much impressed by her responsiveness to our email enquiries and prompt solutions to our last-minute wedding venue change, nowhere else to find such a helpful and sweet marriage celebrant! Thanks Cath again, for making my big day perfect and it was you who made it happen! Wish you and your husband all the best!!! Steve & Eugene

We could not have been happier with our decision of choosing Cathy as our wedding celebrant. From the first time we met her, we both knew that we were going to work with Cathy. We had no idea how or where to start with drafting a ceremony and she 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 and efficiently from the very beginning. Cathy is very professional, organised and definitely exceeded our expectations! It was such a pleasure with with Cathy and we could not have had a successful wedding without you!

I was the singer for the wedding in Paddington with Cath Flavell and she ran the ceremony smoothly and efficiently. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her. She knows how to lighten up an atmosphere and bring her charm and good humor to the ceremony. I highly recommend anyone and everyone to her wonderful talent and services.

I found Cath online and after reading so many great reviews of her service, I decided to arrange a meeting with her. And it was one of the best decisions I've made. We couldn't have asked for better celebrant, she was absolutely amazing prior, during and after the ceremony. The civil ceremony was perfect and our guests kept commenting on how personal and intimate it was. We're very lucky to have found a celebrant that was creative, warmth, fun and understanding, and I felt so confident that the ceremony would be wonderful knowing it was in her hands. In addition, Cath went above and beyond the call of duty all the way through. She took the time to understand us as a couple and she was so generous with her time and expertise where it was needed. We will definitely recommend her to everyone! 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.

Cath was great, my fiancÃ©e was still over sea's and I had to all the first stage organizing 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 FiancÃ©e 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 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 )

Cath is an absolutely wonderful marriage celebrant! Right from our first email she was friendly and helpful. She instantly made us feel at ease and guided us through every step of our ceremony. She made the whole process so easy and stress-free for us which was fantastic as it was one thing we didn't have to worry about at all. Her wedding manual was indispensable in preparing our ceremony and she answered all of our silly questions without hesitation! Cath speaks Cantonese as well which was so important to us as we have family who don't speak English. All of our guests loved our ceremony and that it was heartfelt and emotional yet still funny and reflected us as a couple down to the tee. We loved it too and couldn't be happier!

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 occassion 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 weather condtions we couldn't be anymore pleased with the service she provided.

Cathy was our first one on one celebrant interview from 5 other celebrants we were looking at. From the phone call to the meeting and up until the actual wedding. Her easy approachable personality and humor made the whole process was so much easier and enjoyable for us. She was our first choice from the beginning and upon meeting her we would recommend her services to anyone.

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.

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

RHVP from Brisbane
Cath was easy to work with from the beginning; open and communicative, patient and understanding of our needs and just overall very helpful. She even picked us up from the train station when we had an appointment at her place for final preparations. The only thing I will say is: there was a moment during the ceremony my husband wanted to kiss me before the official "moment". Cath told him "no not yet". I thought this (my husband wanting to kiss "early") was funny and sweet as did everyone else; a lot of guests made the remark afterwards that we should have just done what we wanted and kissed... It wouldn't have mattered if things didn't stick to the plan exactly, and everyone likes a bit of spontaneity (after all we were renewing our vows and not marrying for the first time therefore symbolic and no legal obligations to adhere to). It wasn't a big deal, but the fact that a lot of my guests made this comment about being slightly taken aback by that part of the ceremony makes me think I should mention it as the only negative aspect. Other than that, everything was fantastic and went as it should have done. It was a beautiful day!

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.

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.

Catherine's service is praiseworthy and worth mentioning. Right from the first day I communicated with her, we understood that she will be our marriage celebrant. We have received enormous help from her until our wedding day. Her advice had been useful. Me and my wife had been very pleased and impressed with Catherine's friendly and professional manner, and the way she had managed our simple wedding ceremony. I am not surprised that Catherine had been voted as the best Marriage celebrant last year, because she deserves to be. We are truly grateful to Catherine for everything she has done for us. We shall highly recommend Catherine to anyone who is in need of a marriage celebrant. Farhan & Daisy

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 thankyou to Cathy.

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 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 isle 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 quailty service. Her expertise in the area, her amazing organisation 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.

From the initial meeting with Catherine, my husband and I knew we were in good hands. Catherine is the ideal Marriage Celebrant, she is informative on all legal aspects, professional and very well organised. During the preparation of our wedding ceremony, Catherine provided her guidance and assistance on everything from our wedding vows, dance lessons, wedding songs choices and even equipment hire. She was always there for us, to help and support us. On the day of our wedding, the ceremony was simply beautiful and memorable. Thank you to both Catherine and her husband for making our wedding day so perfect. Her sense of humour, warmth and kind nature at the ceremony brought so much laughter, joy and tears on our special day. My husband and I would highly recommend Catherine to anyone and it has been an absolute pleasure to have Catherine Flavell as our Celebrant.

Professional and Personable, Accommodating and Understanding is how we experienced Cath at her best as the celebrant for Our Special Day. The search and selection for our celebrant was quite daunting, filtering through many pages of possible celebrants, reviewing their profiles & pics...but when we came across Cath's profile a sense of calmness and comfortability came over us, we immediately felt this celebrant(Cath) was the right one for us. On our meeting with Cath she was so welcoming and just made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We loved that Cath made our ceremony as personalised as we wanted, Cath guided us in preparation for our special day and gave us food for thought for our future. We are so grateful for all that Cath has done for us and would certainly recommend Cath when looking for a Celebrant. We will definitely utilise Cath's services again in the near future. Thank you so much. Love Mr and Mrs Calub

Cathy really explains through what is available to us as a couple to be married. She explains the legality process and also what other options available. She is very prompt with replies and makes sure things are thorough, taking care of all the organising and admin work for us. Cathy really got to know us through a brief time, she is very warm and welcoming and wrote up ceremony samples of both a large wedding and intimate (as we were not sure at the time - what we wanted). She also wrote up a personal ceremony version, one with humour and one traditional. She really wanted to ensure we had options and which we really happy with. With her experience as a celebrant she knows good wedding vendors and she really caters for what we wanted and can make the day traditional, personal, and/or with humour. She is a great speaker and also considers things which wouldn't cross our mind like, good picture shots for the photographer, how to be positioned, rehearsals and options like a feathered pen, table, etc for signing of the marriage certificates etc. We are very happy with how the ceremony turned out, she arrived before we did, even giving updates on location and possible events that may interfere, she gave good suggestions and really helped a lot more than just being a person who can provide legal rights. Cathy doesn't judge, and really sees couples choices as "each to their own". We didn't give her much time, yet she was able to really cater for us and we didn't feel any pressure or hesitance from her. Having said that, we got to know her and she is really genuine and we would happily recommend her.

Cath was the first celebrant we made an appointment to meet for a pre-wedding chat. When she welcomed us into her lovely home and guided us through the whole process, we knew we had found our celebrant! We found Cath to be very warm, friendly and extremely professional. She took care of all the legal work and wedding ceremony organisation. Most of all she calmed our nerves and reassured us that she will deliver a ceremony that would be highly personable and intimate. On our wedding day, Cath delivered everything we had asked for and made the day run very smoothly. Our ceremony was filled with laughter and was very moving. After the ceremony, many friends and family commented on how wonderful Cath was. They especially enjoyed how Cath filled the ceremony with humour and sincerity. If you are looking for a celebrant that is warm, genuine and highly professional, my husband and I highly recommend Cath. Thank you Cath for making our wedding day so special.

We want to thank Cath for the wonderful job she did as our celebrant (on 19/11/11). She was both professional and personal, adding a warmth to our occasion that will be remembered fondly. From the first time we met with Cath, she took the hassle out of the ceremony preparation and paperwork, and I am very grateful for her professional handling of an awkward situation of my mother (the mother of the bride) not arriving at the ceremony on time. Thanks Cath - you are wonderful!!!!

Cath was well organized and professional from day one, especially on our wedding day in coordinating when we were ready to start the ceremony. She made our wedding day feel perfect and romantic. Cath has a calm and pleasant voice which we believed created the tone to the ceremony. All our family and friends kept on commenting what a romantic wedding it was but especially mentioned what a fantastic job our celebrant did. We were extremely happy with the whole day and experience and highly recommend Cath to anyone who is looking for a celebrant.

Cath made our Ceremony as Intimate and Romantic as we can possibly have it. She has provided us with a tailored Ceremony to reflect what my husband and I have for each other. Being Filipino, I wanted to do the Coin ceremony and Lighting of the candle which meant a lot to me. I asked Cath to help me put these in the Ceremony. She has set it up it for me and made our Ceremony more special. I have been to a lot of weddings and I must admit that Cath is very good at what she does! She was there to help us from day 1.

Our initial meeting with Cath was informative and Cath had very good knowledge in the legal aspects and as well as personal emotions that she has seen with other couples. My wife and I were extremely pleased that Cath helped us to create a personalised ceremony and it was commented by alot of our guests. Cath prepared us for the ceremony with a few private rehearsals, stepping us through each stage in a manner that had us prepared and relaxed for our wedding day and making it memorable. Overall the ceremony went very smoothly and we couldn't have done it without Cath's help. My wife and I would highly recommend Cath as your wedding celebrant. Thanks again Cath!

Cath was recommended to us by a friend who she had also wed and after our experience, my wife and I also highly recommend her. She was so thorough in her knowledge about the legal aspectl of getting married as well as the emotional aspect. Her experiences in being a celebrant helped us to understand how we may react or want our ceremony to be. Cath truly had her responsibilities as our celebrant under control and left any other stresses to be focused elsewhere for what turned out to be the perfect wedding day!

Cath, to us was a God send. I first contacted Cath 11th May for my parents Golden Wedding Anniversary ten days before it was due. We had a little less than two weeks of preparation to find a venue and a celebrant that would perform the renewal of vows for my parents' special occasion. As my parents had both been ill prior to their anniversary, my father with his vision and mum with her vertigo that lasted more than two months we really could not plan an elaborate celebration and this is where Cath comes in. My daughter found her name on a website along with some others. However she was the only one who picked up the phone and not some answering machine. I also had two more celebrants that returned the call and set up an appointment but it was Cath's voice that attracted me, her tone and friendliness and most of all she was very accommodating upon learning the predicament we were in. Immediately she told me in details what was involved and as we had less than two weeks, she set up a meeting with me and my parents at her home that weekend. She was not only professional but very organized too. She conducted an interview with my parents on how their love blossomed and led to marriage all those years ago. She gave us lists of appropriate readings for the grandchildren to read and a couple of rituals that might be suitable to the little grandkids and great grandchild. The whole family was involved. She made it more exciting and special that on the actual day it was more than what we had anticipated for. The right setting for the garden ceremony, a moving story of my parents love story that she read out on her PA system, music, the exchanging of their wedding rings, the lighting of the candles and the presentation of their certificate as well as their little story book. It had an individual touch that Cath provided, which made it so special. My parents' joy was written all over their face as well as my three brothers who gave a very positive feedback on the whole celebration. I would recommend her business one hundred percent as I am sure she gives her best to all her clients judging from the experience we had, as a matter of fact my daughter had also contracted her to perform the ceremony for her wedding when the time comes (hopefully soon).

We chose Cath to be our celebrant after attending a friends wedding at which she had carried out the ceremony. We had originally planned to get married late Feb and had organised the date with Cath a while ago. We both went around and ran through the basics, did the simple paper work. All ver friendly. Then, we had a change and needed to get it done quicker. All in all, we brought everything forward with just over a weeks notice, during this time we had to pop around go through the final choice of readings and vows. Cath had been extremely accommodating, even being prepared to put off a prior family engagement to help us out. As it turned out she brought her family along to the wedding including her charming daughter who even helped decorate the venue with some flowers. The ceremony went without a hitch. It was beautifully done, some of the guests commented to me on the day that we were lucky to get her to do it, I really think we were.

As an overseas couple from Hong Kong, we at first knew nothing about the legal requirements and cultural procedures of a wedding ceremony in Sydney. Cath did not only explain and guide us in detail of what we need to do, she also gave us lot of suggestions for making our Big Day perfect but hassle-free. We were impressed by Cath's delicate, professional and wholehearted services. To us, she was not just a wedding celebrant, she was indeed a wedding planner. Say, she even took care of our choices of wedding venue (suggested us a Plan B venue for bad weather), music for the ceremony, guided us the right pose for taking better pics at the ceremony, arranged the wedding cert to send back to HK directly in an efficient and economical way (so we could enjoy our honeymoon around Aus without worrying to get the cert from the legal authority during our limited time in Aus).... oh... and passed me tissue when i was touched to cry at the ceremony...!!! Having Cath as our wedding celebrant was a gift from God. She is much more than we originally expected. She made our day even more perfect!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Cath was our celebrant for a small backyard wedding in Sydney. She was very organised and professional, arrived early as promised on the day, and was helpful all throughout our wedding planning process. The bride was very comfortable knowing that at least this part of the wedding would go smoothly, which was a huge relief for me.

A friend and workmate who I hadn't seen for years, turned out to be my lifesaver when I discovered she was a marriage celebrant! Had made a late decision to change my wedding from the registry to my sister in law's house, and needed to find a celebrant at short notice. And it turned out to be Cath. As professional as Cath always was at work, this shone through with all the arrangements. Our wedding was a huge success and Cath played a major role. I was Cath's first marriage/wedding, and I can see from the reviews she's received, everyone else's experience has been the same. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cath.

Catherine was the Marriage Celebrant performing our Ceremony at Auburn Botanical Gardens on January 25 , 2011 . Catherine prepared us for the ceremony with several private rehearsals , stepping us through each stage in a manner that had us prepared and relaxed for our wedding day . On the day itself the weather was around 35 degrees and very uncomfortable but Catherine was punctual , presented herself in a lovely way and guided us through the ceremony in a very professional manner . I would not hesitate to recommend Catherine and would also say that from her efforts before , during and after our business we did not only think of Catherine just as a Marriage Celebrant but as a friend to us both . Greg and Marilou .

Cath was extremely professional from our first contact with her, but also took time to make sure we were comfortable with the process and understood everything that was taking place. Cath took the extra step to make our experience with her personal, and showed that she genuinely cared. Dealing with Cath was a pleasure, not only would I recommend her to friends and family in need of a marriage celebrant, I would also use her again for the other services she provides. Cath is very personable, friendly, and very organised - willing to go out of her way to help where she can. I would use her again in a heart beat!

Cath's efforts on the day and her preparation prior to the wedding were exceptional. Prior to meeting her, she was very quick to respond to all our questions via phone calls and emails. Once we met her, we knew she was the celebrant for us because she was warm, friendly and we were comfortable dealing with her. On top of that, she was super organise and made every effort to help us in personalising our wedding ceremony. She made our wedding day special and completely stress-free! We couldn't have ask for more. She exceeded our expectations and we would recommend anyone to use her services in the future. She's the celebrant every wedding couple should have.

Cath was warm and friendly from the start and made everything very simple and straight forward and helping us through the whole process. On the day she was very professional and kept us on schedule, as you seem to be always running late on the day. It was really nice to have someone guide you through the wedding, even more enjoyable when its your celebrant.

Cath was very patient and understanding,she was caring and considerate of what we wanted and went to the utmost limits to make our day as special as we wanted it. On the day she made sure we were relaxed as could be and conducted our ceremony in a friendly yet professional manner.

Cath was so resourceful. She made us feel very prepared each time we meet up with her. Her ceremony style, delivery of speech was just so warm and really engage not just us the couple but all the guests too! I've recommended her to my maid of honor and everyone that I know.

Hi Catherine! Just a quick note to say thanks so very much for all your support and help to us through our 'journey' and preparation towards our wedding day. Your manual of readings and goodies made the ceremony part a breeze for us. Best of all, your friendliness, enthusiasm and efficiency were much appreciated in making us feel comfortable that everything was looked after and ready for the big day! Thanks for all your tips and advice (e.g. about flowers / cakes / best-ring-exchange-photo-opportunity-hand-position-technique) along the way too! You're definitely more than just a celebrant! =) Thank you very much to you and your husband for helping with our ceremony! Everyone said it was beautiful (some tears in the audience too, I heard!). You have so much experience and know all the little tips and tricks which made our special day more enjoyable and lovely! Attention to detail - you even coordinated your outfit to suit our wedding colour scheme! How considerate! Truly an awesome celebrant! I would definitely recommend you to others. All the best to you and your family!

Cath was extremely professional and was able to anticipate all our needs (including needs we didn't know about!) Her knowledge and hand out material made it very easy for us to work out our ceremony plan. You wont be disappointed!

When we went to meet with Cath, we were both a bit apprehensive. We were unsure of the process and what it all involved and with the wedding planning, we were feeling a bit overwhelmed. When we met with her however, she made us feel quite comfortable and was very personable/likeable. There was no question we would be having her as our celebrant on the day. Cath was very organised and we found she was able to suggest a lot of things we had not thought of and even recommend suppliers she had met through the business. She made the process a lot easier than we had originally expected and she was able to organise the ceremony just the way we had requested it be originally, simple, informal and relaxed. We had a few dramas on the day with rain but fortunately, she was able to reorganise the set up at the venue (outside) once the rain had stopped in order for myself and the bridesmaid to avoid any mud or other things which would ruin the dresses and shoes. Very professional and a lovely person. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to any other couples I know who may be married in the future.

Cath is a wonderful celebrant. She is warm, friendly and organised. The ceremony preparation was easy and enjoyable. I liked the flexible appointment times and we also could corresponded via email. I loved that Cath did a site visit to our ceremony location which was in Blue Mountains.

Catherine was so easy to deal with and super friendly.. The whole process was fun to begin with and she made it really easy with her folders which explained pretty much everything. She is so organised and professional. After meeting her, I knew everything will be sorted. She would follow up with phone calls and emails to ensure everything will go to plan. Even though we weren't fussed on the ceremony details or readings, she help choose something that really fit our personalities and made it sound so romantic and nice on the day! She was so helpful with the signing table, pen, ring pillow and getting people sorted on the day. I truly believe the money spent was well worth it. It really made our day the most memorable and enjoyable. We highly recommend Cath as she really has the heart to help and she can deliver a ceremony that people will be talking about for ages. Thanks so much.

I was thrilled from the beginning of planing my wedding with Cath. She thought about all those little things I didn't even know they exist. Everything was taken care of and follow up calls were made to make sure everything will go smoothly. We had issues with papers from overseas..but even that was handled with ease and professional. You need a marriage celebrant?....Cath is the one to choose...believe me.

Cath tried her best to make sure we were completely happy with all of her words,and suggestions before the ceremonies . My husband and i found very comfortable speaking and being around cath and i think she made sure that she went out of her way to make that the case.

Catherine is a true professional and an expertise in the lead up of the day to handling such an eventful day with great poise. She was very helpful in organising my guests arrive to my ceremony as we awaited Jessica Watsons arrival into the Sydney Harbour. Her great organisational skills also allowed me to receive my very own footage of my interview which i will always remember as i didn't have a videographer and only photographer that captured my day. She was patient at waiting and very helpful in calming my partner's nerves as he waited for me also. Throughout the ceremony she was there to guide us through our vows and made a truly memorable ceremony that we will always treasure. It was a pleasure to have her as our celebrant as she went beyond her duties to ensure everything ran smoothly which it did! I recommend her to anyone who is interested in looking for a genuine celebrant who will be there for you from start to finish. Thanks Catherine

When i met Cath i knew there and then that she was going to be our celebrant, she just blew me away with the knowledge and how friendly she was. It was also very helpfull to know that Cath was just an e-mail or phone call away to help us out with our vows and the requirements that we needed to get to her. It was always good to know that Cath was there to help us through everything that we needed to make our special day that extra special. Cath was AMAZING especially on the day. As I was running a little late (as per tradition, but I was a lot more than traditionally late) Cath was very helpful with calming my husbands nerves, helping us out through the ceremony with all of the tears and laughter. Sometimes words can really not express how much help Cath was and how much she just made the day. I highly recommend Cath to anyone in need of a celebrant. Thanks Cath

Cath put alot of work into our ceremony offering suggestions and helping to customise it to suit both our cultures (being Irish and Chinese) everyone commented on how lovely our ceremony was. We highly recommend Cath, we received our official wedding certificate in the mail less than 2 weeks after getting married thanks to Cath registering our marriage so quickly, my friend waited nearly than 3 months through another celebrant!

When Joanne and I first met Cath there were nerves running through both of our veins as we approach her front door. When Cath finally open the door and she smiled at both of us, all of our worries disappeared. A feeling that we had known Cath for years passed through us both as we were invited into her stunning, yet warm home. Jo and I had know each other for 4 years but struggled to find the words to describe how much we loved each other. We thought it would be many sleepless nights working out our vows. Cath once again came to our rescue and had a whole folder of ideas that she had collected through the years. On the big day, Cath was there 15 minutes early from the time we agreed on which set my mind at ease. Seeing her warm smile again, I knew that the whole day was going to be a success. Even though we had a slight change with how we rehearsed the ceremony, Cath adjusted very professionally and was very flexible to new arrangements. (White pigeons were to be released at a certain time). Overall at such short notice, Cath was a blessing. Jo and I recommend her to all our friends in Sydney. We wish to renew our vows in the near future and with no doubt we would be honored to have Cath with us on that special occasion. Not only was Cath our celebrant on our memorable day, but now we consider her our personal friend of our beautiful family.

Catherine is one of those people I am very comfortable dealing with. She made our wedding so special and I can not ask for anything more. She is great and easy to deal with. So if you are thinking of tying the knot, you can always count on Cath.
