From the moment I started looking for a celebrant, Mariana was there with insight, a positive approach and kind manner. Sam and I will recommend her over and over to any couple who asks. The extra assistance given when all of our wishes for our dream wedding seemed lost, made us truly trust her. Especially to conduct our Wedding twice! We love Mariana and her amazingly caring nature!

I would definitely recommend you Mariana as a celebrant! You were always in contact with us, if you weren’t flying to QLD to meet with us, going back and forth over drafting and touching base with how we were. We found the whole process very easy to understand and helped tell our story in a humorous yet professional manner. The whole ceremony was detailed and ran professionally. All documentation was organised and handed to us promptly; and we received our marriage certificate in under recommended time!

Mariana is warm, friendly and highly professional. She sprinkled fairy dust on our day, adding magic to it. We highly recommend Mariana for an inspired, classy service. She’s easy to talk to, answers all your questions and handles legalities with slick expertise. Mariana is six-star service all the way.

You were fantastic and so considerate, you were flawless Mariana. Your consideration to my health and how helpful you were was amazing. Will recommend you to my family and friends with my eyes closed. You made it a breeze going through everything especially with my health situation, thank you so much.

We are so happy and extremely satisfied with the services provided and it exceeded our expectations! We would highly recommend your services to our friends who are looking to get married in Melbourne. Keep up the good work!

We just loved working with Mariana! We clicked immediately when we met her. We could just talk to her for hours and felt very comfortable from the start. Mariana is very professional, very thorough, has high attention to detail and gave us suggestions and advice for every aspect of the ceremony, which we really appreciated and valued. Her delivery was very professional and we felt very comfortable on the day, following her lead. We were very happy and we would definitely recommend Mariana's services.

Both Rosario and I want to say the biggest thank you from the bottom of our hearts for organising our special day and being our AMAZING celebrant! Everything ran smoothly and effortlessly. We want to thank you for giving us above and beyond amazing customer service! Even throughout the constant changing on the day of ceremony inside, out, inside, outside…. You managed to get everything organised and set up beautifully and you are so lovely and calm to deal with. You definitely put our minds at rest and knew you had everything under control. You truly are a beautiful soul and we are so happy that we found you. Thank you one again, you are so wonderful at your job, one of the best customer service we have received. But not only that we really see you as a friend now as you treated our ceremony with so much love as well as open your heart to us as well. Big hugs.

Mariana, we would recommend your services! You met our needs and helped us along the way; and gave us confidence and made us feel more relaxed on the day! Friends and family really enjoyed the Handfasting ceremony. They found you very friendly and pleasant as well suitably attired and professional. THANK YOU!
- Coleen & Electra
We wanted short and sweet and that's exactly what we got! Mariana was professional throughout the ceremony and the lead up to it. On the day we enjoyed your company and joining in the celebration as one of the family. We would be pleased to recommend your services to our friends. Thank you again for making our special day memorable.
- Bernie & Rima
Fabulous, thoughtful and exactly what we wanted! Mariana, you are such a warm and caring person, you really helped make our day a lovely and memorable one. Very professional, firstly ascertaining what we wanted for our day and executing in a gentle and very organising way!
- Claudia & Barry
Amazing woman, 100% happy with Mariana's service from my initial enquiry phone call right up until the day of the service...…..and was also the most interested in my family and really appeared passionate about love. It was just meant to be from the very start! We were very lucky to have her travel out of her way to the country for our relaxed family wedding. She kept herself together when my wedding band dropped into Lake Mulwala, and handled the ceremony like a pro! Highly recommend xx

Jess and I would like to thank Mariana for marrying us on the 14/10/2016 and for doing such a wonderful job. You have been so dedicated and attentive from the beginning, so thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Nothing was ever too much trouble, despite it being a hugely busy time for you at work. You were literally a message and or phone call away, at all times. We were made to feel extremely welcome and comfortable in your company. Jess and I felt as though we had known you a lot longer than the short time we had together. You were full of wonderful tips and advice. I remember walking down the aisle and Dad asking me ‘do you want to walk a bit faster or is this good?’ and my reply was ‘Mariana said I have to walk slow and take it all in.’ I am a stubborn individual and very rarely trust others to do things for me, but had complete confidence in you. It was so lovely to have that feeling with you, especially on a day like our wedding day!
- Emily & Jess
We couldn’t have been happier with how Mariana delivered “our story”. Mariana was very thorough and covered every aspect — it was perfect! The feedback received from our guests was “personable” and how special the ceremony was delivered. The ceremony was so different from other ceremonies that tend to be boring. Mariana’s delivery at just the right moments (of humour) was priceless. She is amazing...can we do it again?
- Lidia & Colin
Mariana performed 2 ceremonies for us. The first being our Legal Ceremony which we held in a lovely private setting with a few witnesses. The second being our spiritual Commitment of Marriage Ceremony which was held in Bali before 40 of our closest friends and family members. Not only did Mariana undertake her duties with professionalism and an amazing attention to detail, her warm relaxed manner and humour also made it an emotional and extremely personal experience that touched the hearts of all who witnessed both ceremonies.
