After being together for 31 years, my husband and I wanted a simple and no bs wedding and Cath delivered exactly what we asked for. Cath is a very friendly person who went out of her way to give us exactly what we wanted. I recommend Cath to anyone who would like to get married as she wont let you down.
We waited to write this review until after attending several other weddings, which really confirmed how fantastic Cath was as our celebrant! From our first meeting 9 months before the wedding, her professionalism and warmth were evident. What really set her apart was her understanding that a wedding is essentially a production - something we hadn't considered - and her expertise in this regard was invaluable.
Cath's bilingual abilities in English and Cantonese were perfect for our multicultural ceremony, making all our guests feel included and comfortable. She was incredibly flexible with our ceremony script, allowing us to modify it extensively to match our vision while providing an excellent foundation to work from.
One detail we particularly appreciated was her suggestion to always remain physically connected during the ceremony - after seeing other weddings where couples stood apart, we realized how right she was about this intimate touch. Small but meaningful guidance like this really made a difference.
The logistics were handled seamlessly - she was punctual for our ceremony, had proper audio equipment to ensure everyone could hear, and her communication throughout the planning process was excellent. Our guests specifically commented on how lovely she was, and the rehearsal guidance she provided helped most things run smoothly on the day.
If you're looking for a celebrant who combines professionalism with warmth, and who truly understands how to orchestrate a wedding ceremony, Cath is an excellent choice. Her attention to detail and ability to create an inclusive atmosphere for multicultural celebrations makes her stand out.

Thank you so much Daniel for your very generous review. I thoroughly enjoyed firstly getting to know you both, your love story and more importantly working with you both to perfect the ceremony that you both wanted. It is always important to me that my couples always have the freedom to make changes to their ceremony until they are happy with the final version for me to deliver. Congratulations and my best wishes again to you both for a wonderful future together. xoxo
We hired Cath as our wedding celebrant as a very last-minute decision. We were so impressed and pleased with how Cath helped us get everything in order quickly and efficiently. She was very informative on how things would go ahead on our wedding day, so we knew exactly what to expect which eased our nerves. I would highly recommend Cath if you are looking for someone approachable, professional and with a friendly nature.
Thank you again Cath and your daughter for all your care and efforts on our special day!

I would highly recommend Cath Flavell for anyone looking for a professional, thoughtful, and personalized celebrant for their wedding.
We started with a simple elope type ceremony which quickly turned into a full wedding. She was so accommodating and kind. She understood what we wanted, wrote an amazing ceremony and made the ceremony simply beautiful—thoughtful, meaningful, and unique. 6 stars out of 5.
Thank you so much Ashika for your generous review. I'm so pleased that I was still able to give you the ceremony that you wanted - despite your wedding plans getting blown out from what you both originally wanted. Congrats and best wishes for a wonderful future together..
Cath Flavell acted as the funeral celebrant for our mother's celebration of life.
She was warm and sympathetic, and attentive to our wishes. She guided us with sensitivity and organised a beautiful service. Very happy with the result from a highly competent and organised professional.
Thank you Diana for your kind words. It was indeed an honour and privilege to be there for you and your family to celebrate your mum. She was a wonderful and gracious lady. Take comfort that she is at peace now and more importantly she is together again with your dad. May she rest in peace.
We had the absolute pleasure of being married by Catherine on our anniversary in her stunning ceremony room.
The journey from our first meeting to when we said “I do” was such an easy and stress free experience. Catherine was willing to answer any questions and helped guide us through the process.
Having the option for an elopement style helped remove a lot of stress and worries from our shoulders and the laughs along the way helped as well.
Thank you Catherine for being a part of our special day.

We had the pleasure of working with Ceremonies by Cath for our wedding, and it was a truly special experience. Cath is not only professional and organized but also incredibly friendly, making us feel at ease throughout the entire process. She handled all the paperwork, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Our small ceremony with our two witnesses was lovely, and it was a joy to be surrounded by such great souls. Her daughter captured the day perfectly with beautiful photos that we will cherish forever. We highly recommend Cath’s services to anyone looking for a caring and dedicated celebrant.

I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your exceptional services as our celebrant. From the very first time we reached out to you, your kindness, knowledge, and professionalism shone through, making what could have been a daunting process much easier to navigate, especially during a difficult time for our family.
Your respectful and understanding approach, particularly in light of our circumstances with the loss in our family, meant a great deal to us.
We sincerely appreciate your patience and flexibility as we needed to prolong our wedding arrangements.
Your attention to detail was evident from our first meeting, where you had meticulously prepared everything we needed, alleviating any concerns we had about the process.
Throughout the entire journey, you were a guiding light, offering support and expertise every step of the way. Your dedication to ensuring our day was perfect did not go unnoticed, and we are incredibly grateful for all the extra effort you put in.
Working with you was an absolute pleasure, and I wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone in need of a celebrant. Your professionalism, warmth, and commitment to making our day truly special are qualities that set you apart.
Once again, thank you, Catherine, for everything you have done for us. We are immensely grateful for your contribution to our special day.

Thank you Peter for your kind words. I had a great time working with you and Tiffany leading up to your big day. I'm so pleased that everything went well for you both - especially when your original plans of having a small wedding blew out to be a big event at the end. My best to you both for a wonderful future together.
From the first time we reached out to Catherine she was very helpful and knowledgeable from the get go. We didn't want nothing over the top so decided on a low key elopement style wedding at our home.
Catherine had wrote out everything we needed from our first meeting so there was no fuss and we all knew what was needed to be done on the day.
We had a few mishaps from our side and was a bit later than scheduled but she was paitent and we managed to have a beautiful and simple wedding with our closest friends and family.
Would definitely recommend her services!
Thank you George for your generous words. I have learnt after over 15yrs as a celebrant that there is always mishaps happening at weddings and really there was not issue at all with what happened to you both on the day. I'm just pleased that it was only a slight delay for you both and you still managed to have their special intimate wedding in front of your closest friends and family. My best to you and Vanessa for a wonderful future together.
I saw Cath's facebook page, read some reviews about her services and decided to contact her for more info. From the very first email to the last one, Cath was incredible! We decided to go for the elopement package where Cath provided the 2 witnesses needed. We took our 1 year old boy to the ceremony and it was so special for our little family. Cath got to know us before the ceremony which made the formalities personalised. We couldn't recommend her services enough. Thank you, Cath!
Thank you Elaine for your generous review. While you opted for an elopement style wedding, I'm so pleased that you and Paul took that opportunity to write personal and heartfelt vows to each other. It was so beautiful. It was a joy working with you both and your little boy was a delight on the day. My best wishes to you both for a wonderful future together.
Cath simplified the whole process from the start to finish-creating our vows, what was involved, rehearsal, to our actual wedding day. For simple and sweet, we highly recommend Ceremonies by Cath (And If you would like some Cantonese in your ceremony, it's a bonus!)
Thank you Kim for your kind words and for the privilege of being your celebrant. It was great working with you and David in creating your ceremony. Thankfully the rain held out during the ceremony for you both. My best wishes again to you both for a wonderful future.
I highly recommend Ceremonies by Cath. She looked after us from beginning to end. Our wedding day went so smoothly. Nice and simple just how we wanted. She has a lovely room setup for ceremonies. Communication was awesome. We got married on the 4th of Nov. thank you so much again Cath. We appreciate you. Joe & Rita
Thank you Rita for your lovely review. Whilst you had a registry style wedding, I still had a great time writing you a personalised ceremony. My best wishes again to you both for a wonderful future together.
We couldn’t be happier with the incredible job Cath did as our celebrant for our wedding on 27 October 2023. From the moment we first met Cath, her warmth, professionalism, and a genuine passion for what she does was clear. She took the time to get to know us, understand our love story, and our vision for the wedding ceremony.
The weather on our wedding day shifted mid-ceremony which meant that we needed to change locations last minute, however, Cath handled this with flexibility and composure and made sure that our ceremony was still beautiful. We highly recommend Cath to any couple looking for an exceptional celebrant.
Thank you Cameron for your kind words, I thoroughly enjoyed working with you and Esther in creating your ceremony and whilst the heavens opened up mid way through the ceremony - I'm so pleased that we were able to finish it off beautifully under cover. My best wishes to you both again for a wonderful future together.
My Husband and I just recently got married by Cath and it was an amazing experience.
The funny little moments she adds into the ceremony are truly hilarious and creates a vibe that represented my husband and I as a couple.
She made the ceremony atmosphere as personal and beautiful as it can get.
I highly recommend her services as nothing went wrong during my ceremony and everything was what I had hoped for.
Thank you Isabella and Stephen for your wonderful review. I had such a great and fun time working with you both and I'm so pleased I was able to deliver a ceremony that reflected both your fun personalities. My best to you both for a wonderful future together. xoxo
Catherine is amazing and wonderful she made things go smoothly. Very professional and flexible in light of small delays. She makes everybody comfortable and good with organizing everyone before the ceremony starts. My husband and I highly recommend Catherine. Excellent work and God Bless!
Thank you Ricky and Helen for your generous words. I thoroughly enjoyed working with you both and so pleased that your big day turned out wonderfully. My best wishes to you both for a wonderful future together. xoxo
5 years ago I did a quick google search for celebrants in my area. I came across Cath's website and realised she lived in the same suburb as me. What a great find I thought!

Thank you Alarna for allowing me to be a part of your family through the 3 Naming ceremonies I did for each of your children. It was indeed a privilege that I will treasure and always remember - your children and your entire family. xoxo
Cath was an amazing celebrant, we were extremely happy with her work. She made the process very easy from the beginning to the end and delivered on everything she said she will do. she was even able to change her final program to suit our last minute changes. Cath handled all the paper work so we didn't have worry about that and she told us the next process. I would highly recommend Cath as a celebrant.
Thank you Mark and Maika for your generous review. There was never going to be an issue with making last minute changes - I'm just pleased that it was able to be done :). It was indeed a privilege to have been your celebrant. My best to you both for a wonderful future together. xoxo
We were so glad to have found Cath as she was a wonderful celebrant throughout the whole process, even though we opted for a simple registry style wedding, she was professional and made our marriage ceremony a fun and memorable experience.
