Katrina Staples - Marriage Celebrant, Ballarat, Canberra & Merimbula

My husband and I highly recommend Katrina for anyone looking for a celebrant in Hobart. She is very organised, friendly and caring and our ceremony was everything we had wished for. She made the whole process stress free! Thanks very much again Katrina

It was a pleasure having Katrina as our celebrant. Really listened to what we want and made the process very seamless and personal. Would highly recommend if any one is looking for a wedding celebrant in Hobart!

Choosing Katrina was the best decision we made, she was able to assist us to put to words everything we wanted to say.
There is so many things to do for a wedding and we were entirely unprepared. She helped us with the important paperwork and put a plan in place for the day to run smoothly. Would not have had all the things ready without her.
They fixed all the issues before I even knew they were a thing (as I am typing this I asked husband if he had anything to note- apparent he had an issue with his phone and the music, she fixed it. I never knew)

We never would have thought planning a wedding can be so easy. Katrina is so experienced that she guided us through every process so we can focus on the wedding and enjoy the special moment. Thanks Katrina:)

Our recent wedding ceremony was a wonderful experience with Katrina. She took care of all the small details and tailor made the day to suit our wishes and include our children on the day.would highly recommend to anyone looking for a celebrant in the Hobart area.

Katrina helped make our day super special and we loved working with her. She certainly went the extra mile like no extra request was a bother.
We highly recommend Katrina to anyone who is looking for a celebrant.

Thank You Katrina for being so incredible. I still remember the moment you asked both of us to close eyes for a minute and it was sooo magical

Once again thank you for your presence at our big day and we were blessed to have you️

Katrina is amazing! My partner & I eloped and we’re still extremely nervous but Katrina put us at ease and made everything so perfect and simple thanks to Katrina!

Katrina, helped us to design the perfect ceremony, we felt comfortable and she guided through the process
The ceremony was very special?

Katrina was wonderful from the initial phone call right through to the ceremony, Katrina put us at ease & made the decision making for our ceremony so easy, she tailored the ceremony to suit us perfectly & we couldn’t of been happier with how it all went on our wedding day.
We would not hesitate to recommend Katrina to our family & friends that may need her services in the future.

Highly recommended! Katrina was organised, kind, caring & put us at ease right from the start. From the moment we met, we could tell Katrina was really listening to what we wanted, she thought of everything & more, guiding us to create the relaxed ceremony we had hoped for.
Thanks for everything Katrina, we can't stop talking about how fantastic you are.

Me and my wife would like to thank Katrina for being part of our big day. Katrina is awesome. Very very flexible to deal with, listens to every perspective, guides through all the steps. Most importantly, she has a very smiling face which gives a positive vibe when she is around. I really loved her idea of translator during our marriage which also indicated how involved she is to make our day special for us and for our guests.

Katrina is an amazing celebrant,
My wife and I spent a few days narrowing down which celebrant we wanted to go with out of the dozen or so non-religious celebrants in the Hobart area. We eventually decided on Katrina because she seemed nice and professional and we liked the different packages she offered because we did not want to have an overly long or wordy ceremony.
We were immediately happy with the choice we made, we met her at a nice café where she bought us coffee and got to know us. She was very polite and organized, she gave us a wedding planning binder with information on the legal requirements we needed to organize, tips on writing vows, and an organized run down of the ceremony structure.
Katrina was very helpful on the lead up to the wedding and made us feel significantly less stressed as she would remind us when we needed to get things done by, she read over our vows for us and she organized a rehearsal with us on the day we met her. The rehearsal was great it was quick but informative, we practiced what everyone would be doing, we established our wet weather plan, and Katrina told us some small mistakes that people normally make during the ceremony which helped us greatly on the day.
The actual day was perfect, my wife and I kept saying how surprised we were about how well everything was going. Katrina and her husband arrived early, helping us set up and helping my groomsmen with their bow ties. She talked to our guests and let them know what they would need to do when the bride arrived, she played wedding music while we waited, and she made sure we were ready with the music for my wife to walk down the aisle to. During the ceremony Katrina walked around so that our photographer could get photos of just the two of us as well as photos with the celebrant. Katrina made the legal requirements and vows easy as she broke them down into small sections for us to repeat, which was especially helpful as English isn’t my wife’s first language. She helped us with the signing and then after we walked out, she had our parents come up and embrace us so that there was not an awkward pause as we moved from the ceremony to talking to the guests.
TLDR: Katrina is a friendly, kind, organized and passionate marriage celebrant that goes above and beyond to make her client’s wedding day special. She tailors the ceremony to the couple’s wants and is experienced enough to suggest ideas that most people likely haven’t thought of. We were really happy with our decision to have Katrina as our celebrant and we could not recommend her enough.

Katrina was the perfect fit for us, lovely friendly and professional, took care of all the paperwork and ordered our marriage certificate.
Made our day even more special, would highly recommend to all couples thinking of getting married. Thank you Katrina for marrying us 19/11/2022. Michelle & Carlo.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Katrina as our celebrant in November. We wanted a very small, intimate ceremony at our dining room table, with no fuss and no frills. Katrina was able to accomodate our wishes exactly how we wanted and our day was perfect! Thank you Katrina for being such a warm, friendly, and understanding celebrant. I wish we could get married a second time just to have you there again!

Katrina was the perfect fit for my husband and I, she is friendly, easy to get along with and listens to what you want for your wedding ceremony. We had so many compliments on how lovely our ceremony was and how great Katrina was too. Nothing felt ingenuine and I would recommend her services to anyone I knew looking for someone to perform their ceremony.

Katrina was wonderful right from the beginning, friendly and helpful, very efficient and our marriage ceremony was exactly what we wanted. Absolutely perfect. I highly recommend Katrina to any couples wanting to get married you will not be disappointed.

Katrina eased our nerves tremendously and made the whole day an awesome experience for both of us. Every meeting before the wedding was something to look forward to.

PS: Be careful, she'll fight tooth and nail to pay for your coffee! Thanks Katrina!

Katrina is lovely and was very easy to work with. She provided us with all the information we needed and was always available to answer questions.
Katrina tailored our ceremony to suit our personalities and ensured that our day ran smoothly. Katrina also kept in contact with us after the wedding to ensure that we safely received our marriage certificate.

Katrina was absolutely fabulous as our celebrant for our special day. Katrina was very helpful in organizing our wedding at such short notice. She created a calm atmosphere for an emotional ceremony. Highly recommend for future wedding celebrant.

Thank you Katrina.
