Fiona Garrivan Marriage Celebrant

Where do I even begin? ! Fiona, Jamie, Tilly and I just want to say a huge huge THANK YOU for being the most amazing celebrant we could have ever dreamed of having at our big day. Your beautiful calming nature put us at ease from the very beginning. The way you included our little girl Tilly into the ceremony just melted our hearts. Our guests LOVED you. The personalised ceremony you wrote for us was PERFECTION! Just writing this review brings tears of happiness to my eyes. We were so incredibly lucky to find you and cannot recommend you highly enough to all the engaged couples out there on the search for the perfect celebrant. We love you and wish you all the best for all the special moments you get to be a part of! The Trueman’s xxx

Thanks Fiona, you were amazing. You took all the stress out of the day for us in the lead up to and on the day.
Cannot recommend your services enough.

Fiona is so lovely and great to work with! Fiona made a personalised ceremony for us with very sweet touches to ensure our dog Henry who was there on the day was included. Unfortunately, due to Covid, Fiona couldn't attend our ceremony - but because she is so organised she had already arranged a back up celebrant and everything went smoothly on the day.

Fiona is an absolute delight and amazing celebrant. She has a warm, gentle and calm nature and kept us relaxed throughout the ceremony but also in the lead up to the day. She makes the effort to really understand her clients and for us, she felt like she was one of the family on the day. She is also a true dog lover and managed the 3 we had on the day so easily! We honestly cant thank you enough Fiona!

Fiona was fantastic!

She is very approachable and a delight to work with. She also seems to have this uncanny ability to say the right things at the right time.

If you are looking for a professional and down-to-earth celebrant, we highly recommend engaging Fiona.

Fiona was the marriage celebrant for my wedding in April 2022. From our first phone chat to post wedding follow up, Fiona has been a pleasure to deal with. She took the time to get to know my fiancé and I and catered the ceremony around what made us feel comfortable. What could easily have been an overwhelming experience was a very pleasant and personal one. She took the time to offer up different suggestions and guides to how our ceremony could be conducted. Her calm and gentle nature made for a genuinely spoken service. Thank you Fiona for kind words and being apart of our special day.

Fiona’s service was excellent from when we first contacted her right up until even after our wedding day. She was very kind, helpful and professional throughout. She answered all of our questions and made sure everything was in order so we did not have to worry about any of the legalities. Thank you Fiona for being apart of our special day!

I don’t even know where to begin to describe how amazing Fiona is at her job. We met Fiona under very sad circumstances when our beautiful best friend Rachael passed away. Looking back we feel Fiona ways brought to us, as she has been an absolute blessing. Not only navigating our way through our loss but also dodging the unknowns of the pandemic Fiona was always there for us. Fiona has honestly gone above and beyond for us,
from multiple catch ups to multiple date changes! To the countless emails and phone calls, Fiona you are truely magical. We couldn’t have asked for a better, wiser more loving person to guide us on our journey into marriage. Fiona brought so much energy and positivity to our wedding day, a truely beautiful soul inside and out. Thank you so much Fiona xx

Fiona is a true professional who thrives in helping you in on your journey. She is reliable and committed to help personalise your ceremony to what works for you. She is full of ideas, enthusiasm and guides you from the very start all the way. You feel at ease in her presence and nothing is a trouble for her. Blessed to work with her.

Where to begin with how much we love Fiona! It’s almost impossible to express our thanks and appreciation to Fiona for not only officiating our beautiful wedding ceremony, but for holding our hands and guiding us through the experience with excitement, empathy, and love. Fiona made us feel comfortable throughout the entire journey, especially on our wedding day. The ceremony was everything we’d hoped it would be; relaxed, romantic, funny, and filled with love - and we fully attribute that to Fiona’s special way of getting to know us and our story, and being able to share our day with her and our family & friends was incredible. Thank you forever, Fiona, for everything! We are so blessed and grateful to have been on this journey with you!

Fiona, we cannot thank you enough for how much you have done for us, and how beautiful the ceremony was. It was everything we could have ever dreamed of, and you made us feel so comfortable, calm and happy for the day.

Thank you for every one of your suggestions, you understood exactly what we wanted and made the ceremony feel completely true to who we are.

The feedback from our guests were all singing your praise of how perfect you made the ceremony with all of the personal details and involving all of our family and friends (and of course our fur baby chilly!) We are honestly so overwhelmed, the day was magical, we loved every minute of it, and we are so honoured we got to share our day with you.

Fiona was such a fantastic celebrant! She has a very friendly and warm nature and we would recommend her in a heartbeat to family or friends looking for a wedding celebrant. Our guests told us how brilliant they thought she was too! Fiona was organised, thorough and made us feel very comfortable and at ease in the lead up to our wedding and on the day itself.

Fiona was amazing from our first meeting, her ideas and input gave us a beautiful funny and original ceremony our family and friends could not stop raving about, Fiona’s kind nature and sense of humour helped settle our pre-wedding nerves, we can not thank Fiona enough for her help and providing us with a beautiful memorable day we could not recommend her high enough all we can say is thank you, thank you, thank you!

Fiona is absolutely amazing! It was so awesome to work with her to make the most unique and special ceremony that really showcased ‘us’ and who we are as a couple. She was so kind, funny, nurturing and very creative. We received so many comments after our ceremony about how unique, genuine and intimate our ceremony was. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a truly beautiful celebrant! Thank you Fiona for making our day so special! X

Fiona you made our day wonderful. You did a perfect ceremony for us and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. Thank you so much. Xxx

Fiona was so lovely. We were completely at ease, and we and our family really enjoyed meeting her. Thank you so much, Fiona, for being part of our special day, and for such a beautiful wedding experience.

Wow what an amazing celebrant Fiona is. We got married in January 2020 but we started planning our wedding almost 2 years ago. We don't have any friends who are married so through our whole time organising the wedding we felt like we didn't know what we were doing. We found Fiona very early on and knew immediately we wanted her for our wedding. She is so talented and friendly, and most of all helpful. Even though we booked her so far ahead of time, she stayed in contact with us and helped us all along the way. We relied on her experience so much - we must have asked her so many questions while we were planning about things that weren't her job that she probably felt like she ought to charge us a wedding planner fee! But she was always happy to help. And then of course on the day she was absolutely fantastic! It was such a beautiful ceremony and all thanks to the way she ran it. It was so personal and relaxed - exactly what we wanted. If you are looking for a very talented celebrant who is friendly and can help you to feel relaxed at your wedding, I cannot recommend Fiona enough.

Fiona was absolutely fantastic. She made the whole process very memorable and easy. It was such a delight to have her. God bless you so much Fiona.

A huge, huge thank you! We could not have been happier with how everything went during the ceremony, along with the rehearsal.

Fiona wss amazing, right from the very first meeting, you put us at ease and made the stress we have heard about the planning process non existent! Fiona made the whole process enjoyable, loving and fun which was exactly what we wanted for our big day.

We were so lucky to have found her to officiate and would happily recommend Fiona to anyone!

After the loss of a dear family member, finding the strength to organise a funeral and say goodbye felt all too much to bear. Fiona was recommended and from the moment we spoke, we knew that all would be okay. As our funeral celebrant, we felt supported, understood and “in safe hands”. Fiona was warm, gentle, genuine and patient. She gave us space to grieve and take our time to find our own way to say farewell.

We are so grateful for Fiona’s empathy, kindness and humour at such a difficult time. She was truly wonderful.
