Testimonials

Wedding - Legals Only Ceremony

We are so grateful to Catherine for making our wedding ceremony a special and memorable experience.

From the moment we met Catherine, she was incredibly warm, welcoming and genuine. She took the time to get to know us and created a ceremony that felt perfectly suited to us as a couple.

One of the things that really resonated with us was Catherine’s story. Becoming a celebrant had long been something she wanted to do, and her daughter’s engagement was the catalyst that inspired her to complete the course. Knowing this gave us a real sense of the passion and family-focused values Catherine brings to her work. Her caring nature made the ceremony feel personal, meaningful and authentic.

On the day, Catherine put us completely at ease. Everything flowed effortlessly, and she delivered the ceremony with confidence, kindness and professionalism.

We couldn’t recommend Catherine more highly to any couple looking for a celebrant who is invested in making your wedding day unforgettable.

It was a magical time.

You made our ceremony feel personal without us needing to share every detail of our story, which was exactly what we wanted. 

Simple, warm and relaxed, it felt authentic to us and set the tone for a beautiful day. 

The whole process was also so easy, which is exactly what you need when there’s already so much to plan for a wedding

Thanks again!

Baby Naming

We waited until our little girl was one to have a naming ceremony. We held it in the back yard of our home, where we could celebrate her Naming Day and 1st birthday all at once, with our friends and family. 

Since it was such a special day, we wanted to have a celebrant present the naming ceremony. Catherine was great. She understood that we didn't know much about what to include, so she gave us lots of different ideas. 

It went off really well. We were nervous, standing out the front of everyone but she was do calm and confident, that we relaxed and could actually enjoy it. It was the first time we'd been to a non-church ceremony and we found it much more personal than a traditional christening. 

Catherine was able to include the story of how our little girl came to be, in the script. It had been a struggle for us, so we really liked having it as part of the day. We cannot recommend Catherine highly enough.

Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and felt so uniquely us. Catherine put incredible time and effort into crafting our ceremony, making it both entertaining and deeply heartfelt. She was so accommodating with our requests and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was just right. 

We are forever grateful for her warmth, dedication, and professionalism. If you're looking for a celebrant who truly cares, we cannot recommend Catherine highly enough. 

Thank you again, Catherine—you are amazing. We really appreciated the way our children were included in the ceremony , especially through  the sand ritual, which symbolised the members of our family joining together as one.

Wedding - Legals Only Ceremony

We were fortunate to engage Catherine Rigg as the celebrant for our civil wedding. We were going overseas to have our religious ceremony with family, but we needed a civil marriage in Australia to have it officially recognised. We met with Catherine once and the other arrangements were made over the phone. She was very easy to talk to and even though we wanted a simple ceremony, she still encouraged us to make it meaningful. We intended to only have ourselves and 2 witnesses but in the end a couple of other family members who lived in Australia attended and this was no probelm for Catherine. It was held in our cousin's back garden and ended up being a lovely memory.
