Testimonial Sarah & John Haynes married at Philip Park Main Beach Northern Gold Coast QLD
Dear Marilyn, We would like to write to you to say thank you very much for our wedding day on the 1st of October. The whole day went perfect and you made us feel comfortable. Thank you for suggesting that John kiss me as I get there it really did calm my nerves a little. You had so much advice to give, and one thing I am going to miss is our conversations on the phone. You were always professional but so easy to talk to at the same time; it was like having a conversation with someone I had known for years. So thank you for that. The Wooden Wedding Box Ceremony was a hit we received so many compliments on that idea people were saying 'how cute' and 'what a beautiful idea' so thank you again. We look forward finishing the secret ceremony on our 20th anniversary :) I have attached a few photos for you to have. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us Marilyn. Our parents loved the surprise ring warming too, they thought it was lovely that we included them in our ceremony and we are glad we kept it a surprise.
Thank you Marilyn! Sarah & John Haynes xoxoxox

Email from Katrina & Brad from Inverell in NSW
“Hi Marilyn, Well, it’s all over and wow it went quick!! 
The most amazing thing I have seen is everyone smiling or laughing in all the photos, all our friends and family have commented on how wonderful the ceremony was and how much fun it was, the love story, the wooden wedding box ceremony, ring warming, basically everything an average wedding is not. Anyhoo, I will touch base when I get back from Melbourne for a chat, just wanted again to say thanks again, everything went too quick and I didn’t get to catch up with you two as much as planned but thanks again and hope you had as much fun as we did…Cheers, Kat & Coops”
Testimonial Katrina & Brad from Inverell in NSW had their Wedding at the swinging Hard Rock Cafe in Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast on 10.10.10
It certainly was a wedding with the WOW factor! 10/10/10, we were married by Marylin at the Hard Rock Cafe in Surfers Paradise. It was a Blast! When we started looking around for Celebrants, her website stood out by far. We found it had all the information, comments, videos and photos of her other weddings and it was just what we were looking for. A great day with a lot of fun and most of all the ability to personalise the entire ceremony. Marilyn's' ability to relate to us and help us to tailor our wedding to suit our life and relationship was wonderful. We travelled from Inverell NSW to her home for meetings, the whole event was simply great. All our guests (65) commented on how great Marilyn was and that it was not a 'Typical / Boring' wedding, rather we had lots of her flair and enthusiasm to bring the day to life. Thanks again Marilyn, see you for the anniversaries. Love Brad & Kat x

Testimonial Nicole & Craig Wedding Avalon Wedding Gardens North Tamborine Mountain Hinterland Gold Coast
Dear Marilyn, We both want to say a big thank you for making our wedding ceremony so fabulous. You performed the ceremony seamlessly, we were amazed how smoothly it ran. As soon as I saw you on your Marry Me Marilyn website, I knew I wanted to meet you as you looked fun!!! We didn’t want a boring wedding ceremony and you certainly made sure it was super interesting and fun, connecting us as a couple. We loved the ways you involved our family & friends into the ceremony and we especially loved the way you helped us include our son in the most beautiful ways. The Wooden Wedding Box Ceremony we did was great, as it was something we had never seen before and a lot of guests commented on how lovely it was. You were always available and so quickly answered any questions we had and you did so many drafts of our ceremony to make sure it was absolutely perfect! And it was, thank you again!! Love Nicole & Craig Rowe xoxox

Testimonial Peter & Kristy's Wedding at Seaworld Resort Main Beach Gold Coast QLD
We are from Adelaide and decided to get married in the most beautiful part of Australia......The Gold Coast! Planning just about every part of our wedding was done via the internet & email. I searched the internet for a celebrant. I made a few enquiries and found them to be either too pushy or too boring and not quite what we were looking for. Then I came across Marilyn's website, it was full of so many happy couples who all spoke about how Marilyn helped them create the perfect ceremony. Marilyn's Website described the many different types of ceremonies you could choose from and had such beautiful photo's of all the blissfully happy Brides and Grooms, I was very drawn to this particular website so I made an enquiry. The very next day I received a phone call from this wonderful vibrant lady, who I felt a connection to almost immediately and after spending 1 hour on the phone, I hung up with happy tears in my eyes from all the beautiful stories she was telling me and I knew that she was the one to marry us. Marilyn helped us to create the most beautiful ceremony, which was very unique and perfect for us.....non traditional. During the ceremony Marilyn told our beautiful love story, and my husband also made vows to my 11yr old son.  There was not a dry eye in the house. Marilyn's online resource pack was fantastic,  it gave us some great ideas that helped us write our vows. We felt so at ease and comfortable with Marilyn, she was always just a phone call away. Marilyn helped to make our wedding day PERFECT, and we cannot thank her enough. Guess who will be doing a baby naming ceremony ;-)
