She’s extremely friendly and easy to deal with and I’m extremely happy with me and my wife choosing Cath to do our ceremony.
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.

You gave such a beautiful service Cath. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect way to celebrate our beautiful Terri. She would have loved it.

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.
Dear Catherine,
It was so lovely meeting you face to face. I just wanted to say a huge thank you, again, for conducting such a beautiful service.
You are truly so kind, and your beautiful warmth emanated and filled the chapel. You made today very special for our family. Thank you again.
Kindest, Vikki and family
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!
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.
Amazing service by Cath, so attentive to details and accommodating. Definitely recommend to anyone considering to get married. Made the process a true delight.
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!
Very organised and gave helpful opinions and feedback to help our wedding run smoothly.
Catherine is very professional, warm and friendly. She explained everything for us in detail which made our lives very simple and easy. Catherine was very engaging with us, she made us laugh as well as my dear friends that witness our ceremony. I highly recommend Catherine as we know she will do an amazing job for everyone’s wedding. Thank you so much Catherine.
Dear Catherine
Good morning. Many thanks for organising the service yesterday for our Yeh Yeh's final journey. It was very well organised and well presented. Best wishes to you and family.

Google search for "same sex marriage celebrant" lead us to Ms. Cath's webpage and we knew from the start that she's the one we're looking for among all others. We're so happy that we've chosen her to be our celebrant for our special day! She is super kind, warm and accomodating. Despite the time difference, she always make sure that we got all the information that we needed. My partner and I felt as if we had known her for years. The ceremony she put together was simple, perfect and beautiful. She made our wedding preparation hassle free and made our wedding so wonderful! Again, thank you Ms. Cath for taking care of all the paper works too. We can also say that she and her family were a five stars and one of the most beautiful people we have ever met!

Thank you again Ms. Cath for the things you did to make our ceremony beautiful even if we got haggard by our delayed flight from the Philippines and arrived late at your ceremony room you still made everything perfect for us your hard work and dedication to go above and beyond are truly appreciated. We feel really blessed to have found not only a wedding celebrant but also a friend. Regards to Mikayla & Sir Dareth always stay well guys. Cheers!
Amazing celebrant - would totally recommend Cathy. She is professional, fun and helpful. She is warm, accommodating and helped write our vows which everyone loved on the day. Thanks Cathy - you can't go wrong with her.
We have found Catherine and contacted her 26 days before our wedding day. We were super-stressed and I (the male partner) even did not know how to hold my partner's hand in the ceremony. Myself and my partner are from different backgrounds and we had specific needs for our ceremony to be fit in such a short timeframe. From the music to be played to the decorations, exchange of rings and photo shooting, Catherine had the control over our matters and she managed to merge her own style of doing a ceremony with ours. We recognised that she was very experienced, and she knew what she was doing. We would like to thank her, and especially for her husband (for the technical support) for wonderful and professional services.
Cath's professionalism and communication are amazing. She was very accommodating with our needs and utilised her experience to help us make our wedding day exactly how we wanted it.
It was a true pleasure to have Cath be our celebrant. Clear communication, professionalism and warm personality. She has so much experience and knowledge so we felt at ease with her. Her guiding with our outdoor wedding plans helped us to arrange things to ensure it would go smoothly. Highly recommend her.
Awesome services, great communication and loved planning the whole thing with her. Great celebrant and highly recommend for people to give her a contact!
A lovely celebrant, very flexible in her hours and a good communicator. She was very understandable and accomodating when my wife and I explained the difficult situation we found ourself in right before ceremony . We are more than satisfied with Ceremonies By Cath. She is has clarity in her work and always ready and organised for her clients
Thank you Cath, for the very easy process of our no frills wedding. Cath is a pleasure to deal with, communication is great and very easy and she is always helpful in what is required. We recommend the services of Cath.
Cath is very knowledgeable with a very friendly approach. She has the patience that we needed for our wedding and handled it very well. Very professional, well prepared and would definitely recommend to others.

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.
I recently used Cath for my parents 50th anniversary vow renewal. Cath made the whole process so easy, she asked lots of questions and tailored the ceremony according to my needs. She managed to involve the whole family and made a special day even more special. Highly recommend 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 48hours 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.
Cath was professional and fun. Made sure our day started off with a relaxed mood. She also made sure we were well prepared and knew what was going to happen on the day.
She was funny, accommodating, friendly and informative. Made the whole process so easy!
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!
Everything from the first message to the ceremony was amazing. Cath was super helpful and very accommodating. She also helped a lot in giving advice and information. Excellent.
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 did an amazing job. We are so happy that we decided to go with her to be our wedding celebrant. We weren't sure what needed to be done for the legal side of the of marriage process and she was able to organise everything for us. She made it an easy and relaxing process. She made our ceremony a memorable one. Cath is professional, funny, easy going, quick with responding and amazing communication throughout. We clicked with her straight away after meeting for the first time. Cath made us comfortable and it felt like we've known her for years although we had only met a few times. We couldn't be more happier to have shared our special day with Cath and her husband and daughter who provided the music. We will definitely be recommending to our friends and family.
I got married back in January this year! What it pleasure it was having Cath be our celebrant, not only professional but amazing to work with! I definitely would recommend ceremony by Cath for your next event! She doesn't disappoint! Thank you Cath, again for your excellent and professional service!
Catherine was absolutely amazing and we were truly blessed to her be part of our special day.
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.
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!!!
Cath did an amazing job for our special day and was absolutely amazing, professional and detail orientated. Thank you so much for your efforts!
Excellent services Highly recommended. Cath is just the most organised and most beautiful person I have not just used her once for my child's naming ceremony but two more times. All three of my children got to experience such a beautiful person and build a strong bond with her. I highly recommend Cath to anyone who is looking for a celebrant.
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.
