Carousel Weddings

Many of Melbourne’s leading wedding venues recommend me as their celebrant of choice.

Carousel – Albert Park

  I just wanted to send you a really quick note to thank you so much for being our Marriage Celebrant last Saturday at Carousel, you made us both feel so at ease and comfortable with what felt quite daunting in the beginning and turned it into a wonderful experience for us. Nearly 100% of the wedding commented to us about how wonderful you were. Thank you so much for your assistance, advice and wonderful presentation on the day and for adding even more enjoyment to an already unbelievable day! You were wonderful. Thank you so much.  Bettina & Chris – Beaumaris

Plus many guest commented on how relaxed, funny and full of love our Ceremony was – this is all thanks to you. Thanks for the time and effort you put into out script and your warm and relaxed delivery on the big day. Zo and Rich – Middle Park

  Hi Monique, I’m delighted to hear that Carly & Justin have decided to have you as their wedding celebrant. I always love having you back at Gardens House, you have a way of always making the ceremonies very personal and a beautiful reflection of the couple. See you again soon.  Caroline Parkinson, Event Planner – Peter Rowland – Gardens House

Rippon Lea Estate – Elsternwick

  Thank you for being the most amazing marriage celebrant for our wedding at Rippon Lea. Throughout the preparation for the Wedding, the rehearsal and the actual day you were always so personable, professional, helpful, warm, efficient and encouraging and just made the whole process so easy. We were so proud and honoured to have you as our celebrant and we had many people comment on what an amazing job you did. We wish you every success and happiness as you are such a wonderful woman.  Tara and Brent – Essendon

  Our Garden Wedding was the most wonderful day of our lives so far! People came up to us after the ceremony and said it was the most beautiful, personal and romantic ceremonies that they had ever witnessed. I was so impressed with your personal, professional and polished delivery and your delicate touch to keep everything moving whilst letting us just ‘be’ in the moment. You have a real talent, and your experience is obvious in your thorough preparation and helpful advice. Monique, thanks again. You are a such a lovely person, and obviously love your job given your attention to detail in making our wedding day so special. We really enjoyed the process with you.  Deborah & Steve – Glen Iris

Melbourne Museum & NGV – Melbourne

  I wanted to say thank you, from both Craig and I, for helping make our wedding ceremony at the Melbourne Museum such a special occasion. Thanks also for all your help and guidance with the ceremony and paperwork – and for helping the boys out with their buttonholes as well! Whilst most of the ceremony passed in a blur for both of us (you were right about going through everything at the rehearsal so we could remember it!), it was truly an amazing day, and we have many memories which we will treasure forever. Your warmth, professionalism and obvious passion for what you do truly stood out to us.  Prue and Craig – Richmond

  Thank you so much for your work, finesse and grace in organizing and orchestrating our wedding ceremony at the Melbourne Museum. It was so beautiful (and almost everyone came up to tell us how moved they were, many to tears) and reflective of who we are (again, so many told us that), and your guidance really made that happen. Our guests were also really impressed with your delivery and pacing. Amazing job! Thank you for helping make it such a special day.  Vanessa and Alex – New York

Stones of the Yarra Valley – Coldstream

  We would just like to say a very BIG THANK YOU for being our Wedding Celebrant at Stones. Our wedding ceremony was just awesome. So many people commented after the rehearsal, at the wedding and since at how good you were. We were so pleased with how everything went and that we choose a female celebrant. Thank you also for your understanding and compassion when dealing with the sad subject of Aaron’s sister Claire. It was always going to be a tough one, but they way you read out the message from the guest book was exactly in the manner that Claire meant it.  Sandy & Aaron – Black Rock

Riva – St Kilda

  Thank you so much for a beautiful ceremony. You were amazing, we had so many people telling us that it was the most beautiful service they had seen. You were so genuine, so well spoken and looked absolutely gorgeous as always! You have an extraordinary ability to make what is a special day feel so much more special.  Chloe and Stephen – Malvern

Brighton Baths – Brighton

  We had such an amazing time, couldn’t have gone better at all. It was like a million times better than ever imagined!! I cant thank you enough for making our beach Wedding so special. You were perfect and it ran just like clockwork! We have already voted for you for the ABIA Bridal Industry Awards and believe that you should definitely win.  Elyse & Aidan – Brighton

Werribee Mansion – Werribee

  Luke and I just wanted to sincerely thank you for your time, patience and guidance leading up to the big day and of course for helping make our marriage ceremony so special. We both believe you went above and beyond your role as our celebrant on the day and we really appreciate that. Luke especially commented on how you ensured that everything was as it should be prior to my arrival at Werribee Mansion and Luke took a lot of comfort from having you around to support him during that time. Your warmth, professionalism, great public speaking ability, combined with exceptional organisational skills meant that Luke and I went into our wedding day trusting that everything would be okay – and it was – in fact it was amazing! Many of our guests commented on how intimate and filled with love our ceremony was, so thank you for helping us create the exact mood and feeling that we were hoping to achieve.  Janelle & Luke – South Melbourne

Melbourne Supper Club – CBD

  Thank you so very much for marrying us at the Supper Club last week. We were so impressed with how easy you made it, how professional you were and how wonderful the Ceremony was. So many guests complimented your efforts and how you were a true professional.  Tristan and Julia – Elwood

Red Scooter – Balaclava

  Your contribution and professionalism made everything such a pleasure and we simply loved the Ceremony and the rest of the night at Red Scooter was so much fun.  Glenys and Gary – Hampton
