    Fabulous officiant who went above and beyond!!!

    Sue is fabulous!

    We are so happy we found her for our elopement. Covid-19 may have halted our original wedding plans but we decided you can't stop love and we weren't waiting any longer!!

    In steps Sue!! We found her on wedding wire and she was so responsive. From the first phone call we knew she'd be perfect to officiate our wedding. She also recommended florists and a great photographer (Carousel Studios). She did her homework and wrote a ceremony that was designed for us filled with Disney quotes!! Considering it was just us - she made us feel at ease and had an amazing gift of making it feel like the rest of the world melt away by adding humour and grace to the ceremony (even dancing with us at the end!!).

    I highly recommend her and when we look back at our special day we'll remember how lucky we were to have her be a part of it!
    Thank you Sue x

    Outstanding!!!!

    Sue was born to do what she does. She is a natural. I loved our personalized ceremony, from the moment where she lets everyone take a deep breath and take in the moment to time where she had the whole crowd laughing and crying. She brought out so many magical moments. Can’t thank her enough for giving us the perfect wedding. She is worth every penny and I will recommend her to all my friends! Thanks Sue ❤️

    Sue made my wedding the perfect day

    Outstanding human being! From start to finish she had my husband and I continuously reminding ourselves of all the amazing times we have shared in the last 8 years. The questionnaires were such a fun thing to do and read back to each other during the planning process and then Sue’s communication with us throughout the whole year, keeping us on track and checking in with us. Little reminders and then sending us the written draft. Amazing.
    Our ceremony was complimented by Every. Single. Guest as being one of the most beautiful ceremonies they have ever seen. We had the paint ritual to incorporate our 2.5 year old son and just the words she wrote for us from our questionnaires... amazing.
    110% you will have the best ceremony ever if you invite Sue to be a part of your wedding day ❤️
