You go above and beyond Jane you are amazing!

Hi Jane,
Both John and I want to thank you so much for making our special day even more special than we could ever dream! We had so so many of our guests telling us how fantastic they thought you were, and you looked after John so so well prior to my arrival (I think that was your hardest job).

We loved so much how you individualised our ceremony it made it really personal, and thank you for organising the photo around the signing barrel to include our parents and then help with the group photo – you go above and beyond Jane you are amazing!

Thanks again so much Jane, we will be recommending you to anyone we meet that is getting married 🙂

We forgot to also thank you for the apple house!!! That was so funny it was fantastic!! We can’t believe all of the trouble you went through for us, thank you, thank you, thank you again!

Hi Jane
Neil and I would like to thank you for making our wedding day unforgettable and fun.  We felt so relaxed with you right from the start and nothing was too much trouble.  You made it so easy for us and it was one thing that I didn’t have to stress about, you set up the park for us and even cleaned off the duck poo, which was over and above my expectations.  Once again thank you for making it a memorable and fun day for us and I will gladly recommend you to anyone who plans to get married.

We had such an amazing day

Hi Jane!
Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for doing a fabulous job of our wedding ceremony yesterday.

Even though it all went so fast for us and was such a blur, your attention to detail, friendly persona and fantastic presentation did not go unnoticed. The rotunda was set up beautifully and a lot of our friends & family made a point to mention how great you were and that you have the perfect personality for your role!

We had such an amazing day, it went so fast and we were absolutely buggered by the end of it!

I must say I wish I could go back and relive the ceremony because it really was such a blur & I feel like I wasn’t even there for alot of it! So many emotions and adrenaline pumping!

My highlight of the day was looking into Lee’s eyes filled emotions saying his beautiful vows to me.
I’ll never forget it.

Again, you did a great job and really made our ceremony perfect.

Mel and Lee

2 November 2013

Exactly what we wanted!!

Hi Jane
Many many thanks for such a great ceremony! Exactly what we wanted!! When we planned everything we never thought it would work out so well.

PS I’m very glad you didn’t end up in the duckpond! A few people also fell over and one fell down the stairs, so don’t feel like you were doing anything unusual!
Very best regards

You were always there when we needed your advice

Hi Jane,
Thank you so much for everything – from our first meeting, until the big day. You were always there when we needed your advice throughout the entire process. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and we had so many comments about how you did such a great job of telling our story – very touching. The reception flew by and before we knew it, it was the end of the night and we were exhausted, and most importantly – married!

I’d highly recommend you to anyone who was looking for a wonderful, personalised celebrant.

Lely and Laurent

How perfect our ceremony was

Hi Jane! So much for doing such a fantastic job! We received so many comments on how perfect our ceremony was. My favourite part was the ‘why I love you’ paragraph. We are now in (hot) Singapore, leaving for Phuket this afternoon – just relaxing after a big day. Thanks again for all your help!

Very happy with how the day panned out

I have to say thank you very much for everything that you did for us, we are very happy with how the day panned out and we wouldn’t have imagined it going any other way than what it did. And thank goodness it stopped raining just in time!! I also have to mention that many of the guests commented on how much they enjoyed your service….it’s always great to hear positive feedback.

Andy told me that one of the candle jars broke and you fixed the problem by getting another vase from somewhere else and cleaned up the glass etc. You made such an effort to ensure that our day went off without any glitches and reassured us that it was our day and to concentrate on one another and that’s exactly what we did.

Once again than you for being part of my special day. And funny enough I can say that I want to get married again and do it all over!!! I had so much fun!! 🙂 (Well…I’d leave the organisation to someone else though!)

On the day you were perfect

Hi Jane
Thank you so much for being our celebrant on the day, our ceremony was perfect. Thanks for your commitment and assistance prior to our big day. On the day you were perfect, helped with the red carpet, decorated the signing table to match our theme and of course got our names perfect, after all the changes and practicing all week. Also I love how I have the cards now as a beautiful memory of our vows. Take care and I hope we can have you renew our vows in the future (Erik has agreed for our ten year wedding anniversary that I can wear my wedding dress again) 🙂 I will definitely recommend you to anyone who asks me about a celebrant.
Warm Regards, Mutlu & Erkan

I never really thanked you for all the extremely hard work, care and love that you took to make our wedding such an amazing success and a day that I will treasure for the rest of my life. Please let me know if I can do anything for you.

I got so stressed – but hearing your calm voice and warm smile on the day made me so happy! I cannot really thank you enough. Suffice to say, I would recommend you to anyone and everyone. I will send through some professional photos when they are done!

Jess and I wanted to thank you for helping to make our wedding day so perfect, we both had a fantastic day. The ceremony went along smoothly even with the rain – I agree that the thunder added a sense of theatre to the whole event! We both really appreciated some of the special touches you added such as placing the printout of the ceremony on our parents table and your present to us, which now sits proudly on my mum’s hall table. One of our guests even remembered you from your DJ days! We have also attached a few of our favourite photos (from the talented Billy Voon) for you.

Thanks again for being a big part of our special day.

Words could never express our thanks and love for all your hard work

To our beautiful Jane

Words could never express our thanks and love for all your hard work, and effort which you had dedicated yourself to ensure our special day was indeed magical! The meetings which Lorenzo and I had with you were always so helpful, and informative! You always made us feel relaxed, excited and proud of what we have as a very unique and special couple! Our wedding day was much more than what we could have asked for, Lorenzo and I wish to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the majestic ceremony which you had provided for us!

We are beyond thankful, and grateful for not only creating our ceremony to be one of the best, but also becoming our friend for a lifetime!

We cherish you Jane!

We had an absolutely amazing day

Hi Jane
Thank you so much for everything you did for us.  The ceremony area looked amazing, loved the red carpet and the set up of the table and the little blackboard was a beautiful touch that I loved. I hope the photographer got some shots of it.

We had an absolutely amazing day, everything went so smoothly, there were no dramas and that beautiful sunshine – we couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Thanks again

Thanks again for being our celebrant on Sunday

Hi Jane

Hope you’re keeping well.  Thanks again for being our celebrant on Sunday!  You did such an amazing job and both our parents were so pleased with your efforts.  Mum was especially touched that you made the effort to dress up Indian.  We will recommend you for any of our other friends that are in search of a celebrant.

We’re still recovering, Poonam and I.  Still reliving moments from that day.  And I’m still getting teased for doing a ‘Prince Frederik’ crying through my vows…hahahahaha.

Thanks again

I cannot recommend Jane enough

I cannot recommend Jane enough.  I first met her when she was a wedding DJ and she DJ’ed our wedding, then a few years later, my wife organised for Jane to be the DJ at my 30th.  Two years ago I called Jane again and asked her to DJ my wife’s 30th birthday party (unfortunately she was already booked that night, but put me in touch with a very good DJ).

Why is Jane so good, why would I recommend her?

That’s very easy to answer  – the little things.

She gets to know “her couples” (that’s how you will be remembered; Jane remembers every wedding she does.)  Jane finds out about the first time you met, your first date, how you proposed, everything! She uses this information to personalise the ceremony so it is something you remember for the rest of your lives.  The information you provide her is worked into the ceremony so not only does she go through the legal side of things she words the ceremony so it relates directly to you as the happy couple.

Jane is very thoughtful and nothing is too much trouble for her.  On the day of our wedding vow renewal, I was running around like a chicken with its head cutoff.  I pointed Jane in the direction of the backyard and said, “That’s where we are standing”.  Jane then went about setting herself up, set up the table that was required to sign the marriage certificate (which was professionally calligraphied – not just typed up).  Jane brought with her metal lettering (D for my wife Donna and C for me) which was placed on the signing table, small blackboard in the shape of a love heart with our names and date on it hanging in the background so it appeared in photos, she laid out a12 metre red carpet for us, Bride and Groom chairs.  As I said, it’s just the little things, they might not seem like much, but it was something I didn’t have to worry about (she took care of it) and as I look back at the photos and the video, these little things made a world of difference on the day – things I didn’t think of!!

I have heard a lot of celebrants might speak to you on the phone before the day and use e-mail, but Jane organised for me to meet her before the big day to go through what I had planned, what vows I wanted read, she printed out the reading my son was going to read on the day in large lettering so it was easier for a 7 year old to read, but more importantly was she is always there to offer ideas and give support.

The day before our vow renewal, I had a problem with the weather (it was an outdoor ceremony and the temperature was forecast to be 37/38 degrees Celsius), I was stressing out and just a couple of quick emails from Jane helped settle me down.  She gave me ideas on how to provide better shade, who to contact to help me out and the biggest and best advice was to supply water.  I know it’s a little thing and most people thinking straight would have thought of it,but as I said I was stressed as I had organised all the alcohol and soft drink but something simple as water, I just didn’t even think about water – her experience really came through for me.

I’m sure there are good celebrants out there, but I honestly don’t think anyone would go to as much trouble as Jane does.  Someone that will follow your instructions and will put the effort in to make sure YOUR day is exactly the way you want it. This is Jane!!

If you are still deciding on whom you want to be your celebrant – If Jane is free on the day you want to get married, I could not understand any logic that would make a couple go to a different celebrant.

If you have booked Jane and are a little nervous about having someone officiate your wedding that you might not have met yet, DON’T worry.  You have JANE!!!!

My kids are 7 and 5, if in 20+ years they chose to go with a celebrant (instead of getting married in a church) then the first thing I will be doing the day they announce their engagement, is logging on to Google and looking up if Jane is still a wedding celebrant, and if she is I will be booking her for my sons’ weddings.  I am that serious that I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

If Jane is your wedding celebrant, I can guarantee you the ceremony will be PERFECT.

Professional, warm, friendly and wonderful

Hi Jane

How are you? Matt and I have been meaning to call you since the wedding but it seems time has just flown by so fast, with going back to work and having guests in town!

We wanted to say a huge thank you for your amazing efforts in preparation for our wedding. The day went so smoothly and many of our family and friends commented on how professional, warm, friendly and wonderful you were. You certainly helped calm any nerves – we felt we were in great hands and we just had so much fun – the day could not have gone any better!

We are waiting on our photos to come back and will send you a few when they do. We would also like to send you a proper thank you card – is there an address where we can send you something? No doubt this month is as busy as ever so no rush.

Hope all is going well – we really enjoyed getting to know you and having you involved in this special occasion.

Many thanks

Renee and Matt

You are such a lovely, genuine person

Hi Jane,

I went in and picked up the marriage certificate from the city and have began changing my name, so it’s all really happened now!

Just wanted to say thank you for the ceremony you created for us and for everything else you did to help leading up to the wedding. You are such a lovely, genuine person and really went further than your job required to help make everything perfect. Our day was wonderful and our guests (and even our photographer) commented on how great the ceremony was as it was so personal and interesting to listen to. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better ceremony. I am so glad we had you there and I am already missing the regular check up calls to see how all the planning is going (and what I’m stressing over today).

Would love to catch up again

You are the best celebrant we have ever seen

Dear Jane
Thank you very much for being our daughter Kerri’s Marriage Celebrant last week at Inglewood Estate. Your whole manner was very professional and yet you managed to create a very personal and relaxing relationship with both Kerri and Zvonko that far exceeded our expectations. Not only did you conduct the Marriage ceremony but acted as Master of Ceremonies in the Chapel enabling a very smooth start for the whole Wedding. Many people made comment on what a lovely service and celebrant. Thank you again for a job very well done.

You are the best celebrant we have ever seen.

Jane, you are absolutely amazing!

Jane, you are absolutely amazing! Our day was absolutely perfect and that is mainly because of you, Jane. Not only did you provide the ideal celebrant, but you kept everyone entertained by adding the personal touch. You truly went above and beyond anything we could have hoped for, from the Memory Candles right through to the Chocolate Frogs! Your demeanour on the day kept everyone very relaxed and we would like to Thank You for your dedication to ensure that our Wedding Day was one of a kind and will be remembered by not only us but everyone who attended.

Words can not express how highly we recommend Jane, and if you are looking for that perfect celebrant then look no further!

Big thank you for making our wedding so special

I wanted to send you a big thank you for making our wedding so special, I am so glad that things didn’t work out with our orginal celebrant and we ended up with you. I don’t think that our ceremony would have been as amazing and as fantastic as it was without you. You really set the mood for the rest of the night and made it a day that I will never forget.

We had on the night and still have people saying how great you were!

From the bottom on my heart Glenn and I just wanted to thank you so much (even with the help with our reception music)

Jane was an excellent celebrant!

Jane was an excellent celebrant! Attentive, organised, a great listener, extremely helpful and not overbearing at all. Whenever we needed advice or help she was there – and went the extra mile. She deconstructed the whole process and made it very simple for us. She put everyone at ease on the special day and is an excellent orator. We would recommend her to anyone.

Highly recommended

We can’t thank you enough for the fabulous job you did at our Wedding on Sunday 28th November.
What you read on the day and  how  you expressed it, made it a truly wonderful occasion that was not only felt by us, but was commented on by so many guests! Your talent in this area will be highly recommended by us to those in need of your services.

We highly recommend you Jane Austin to officiate any wedding ceremony.

We are writing in regards to our wedding ceremony on Saturday October 16th in which you were the official celebrant. We felt it warranted that we should send you this recommendation as your services were simply superb and your ceremony style just made our wedding all the more special. Apart from your obvious professionalism, your friendly and upbeat demeanour ensured that our ceremony was very much enjoyed. The day was absolutely tremendous with your help in making everything run and look like silk. Everyone commented on how the extra little touches such as introducing the bridal party, reliving the story on how Jay and I met among others, really made it so personal. It was even commented that it was the best ceremony people had been to. This could not, and would not, have been possible without your involvement. Even our photographers were very impressed, which is a rare occurrence in the wedding profession (in their words).

We highly recommend you Jane Austin to officiate any wedding ceremony. We have no doubt that your participation in such ceremonies would prove to be an integral part of any bride and grooms special day. We know it did ours.

Thanks again for your invaluable support.

You’re a gem!

What a priviledge to write a reference for you. There’s an overwhelming sense of wanting to do a top job that is reassuring and comforting. It means that you take on board whatever issues are raised that requires flexibility, understanding, if not enthusiasm to follow through on expressed wishes.

For us the experience was sheer joy simply because you were so very much in tune with how we wanted to proceed. On top of that we could rely on you totally, often leaning beyond what is expected of you as a celebrant. We were truly endeared by you.

We THANK YOU so much for making it a happy, beautiful day, in more ways than one.  Your skills in preparation, organising and sheer enthusiasm are legendary and unforgettable.  You took on tasks beyond your call; a lovely memory of which is the handkerchief you had specially embroidered for Catherine. You’re a gem!

We could could not have wished for a happier experience.
