Happy Couples

Jade S

Steven was absolutely amazing and was worth every moment. His value goes beyond anything else. He gave us so much to work with and was willing to meet with us as much as we needed to get it all perfect. Everyone was laughing and crying during the ceremony and he told our story perfectly! We were beyond happy with the ceremony and Steven set the mood for the rest of the day.

Kym S

Steven was the consummate professional and ensured that our ceremony was a true reflection of us with a minimum of fuss. Managed the legalities and paperwork so much so that was never a concern. He was very entertaining without stealing the show (so to speak). I do not hesitate to recommend him.

Esther H

We chose Steven as our celebrant and are very happy we did. Steven was relaxed, knowledgeable, easy to communicate with and very professional. He tailored the ceremony to capture us uniquely as a couple, highly recommend.

Nicole L

Steven was great and was very organised had everything covered. He was very personable and easy to deal with. The ceremony was really great and all our guests commented on how relaxed and easy the ceremony was.

Megan D

Steven was the perfect celebrant for our wedding. Having been a wedding photographer and celebrant for a long time in Canberra, he had excellent ideas about how to incorporate our personal touches into the ceremony. His friendly nature made organising the wedding ceremony so easy. It was a perfect day.
