A truly personal touch

Well where to begin! Sharon came to us by recommendation, and she is a very experienced Celebrant. She is warm, bubbly, and has a lovely sense of humour. She was highly professional and really knows her stuff, she wasn’t just there to say the words on the day, she guided us to help us decide how to make our wedding day just what we wanted. She was so attentive, and available for guidance along the way. She ensured that she got to know us, and we got to know her so that on the day we felt we had another friend in the room. Our ceremony was small, intimate and beautiful and Sharon was a very key part in making this so. I simply cannot recommend her more highly.

Book Sharon! She Made Our Day

We couldnt have asked for a better celebrant, Sharon met us a few times, we answered lots of personal questions, which were used in our ceremony. Sharon is so very warm, kind and friendly, she made the whole room cry. Everyone asked us how we found her, they all said how amazing and intimate it was having Sharon there. With a celebrant you get that personal touch, rather than a very strict, scripted speech. Do yourself a favour and pick Sharon, you wont be disappointed :) Thank you Sharon for making our day PERFECT. x

Just perfect

Sharon was fantastic from start to finish, she kept us at ease the whole time and answered any questions we had throughout the process. We wanted to have quite a relaxed outdoor ceremony and Sharon made sure this was just as we had hoped, light hearted and personal to us.

How to make our perfect day even more perfect!

Sharon was an extremely kind and professional celebrant who went the extra mile to provide the best service possible for our wedding. From beginning to end, communication was fantastic and she helped with ideas for how to structure the ceremony. On the day she was the one who helped keep us all calm and on track. Cannot recommend this lady enough to help make your day even more perfect!

The added sparkle to a magical day

It was lovely to meet Sharon and have her lead our wedding service. She took the time to get to know us and our love story and our wishes and dream. On the day Sharon was amazing summed up our love story to our friends and family. It was a magical day and Sharon aided this. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing service from the start!

From the moment we first contacted Sharon, everything was stress free for our day. Sharon was there to answer all of our questions and guide us through every step. When we met at the venue in person for our first meeting, it felt like Sharon was a friend, we had a great chat about us, and how we would like our day to be and then Sharon worked her magic and made it happen. We've had several guests say how great Sharon was at leading the ceremony and how personal it was to us.
Sharon is very quick to respond, and made sure we were on the right track for the things she needed from us at the right time, always friendly and helpful. We couldn't have asked for better and we are very grateful for the amazing job she did.

Aisle Be There - Sharon Ratcliffe

Sharon was brilliant. We didn't make it easy for her as we're not a particularly romantic couple, so she didn't have much to work with from us (!) but she came up trumps and also kept the ceremony just how we wanted it - relaxed, low key and fun. I would highly recommend her.

Made our day!!

Sharon provided us with the perfect wedding ceremony making our day very special. Her professional approach, experience and calm, friendly manner helped us ease our nerves and hold it together when we became quite emotional reading out our vows. We can highly recommend Sharon as a celebrant for your service.
