Grateful Recommendations



We would like to thank Michael for making our wedding ceremony a very special, private experience. From the very beginning, Michael showed great compassion to make our wedding day the most pleasant and joyful day for my husband, Mohamed, and I. At first, we were going to get married in our apartment, but Michael offered his beautiful garden in the Southern Highlands and it was the best decision we could make. It was a truly unique experience to get married in Michael’s wonderful, romantic garden pavillon, surrounded by our closest family & friends. Michael and his husband (Edmund) made us feel very welcome and we enjoyed the very well organised wedding ceremony as much as celebrating with some sweet treats after the official part. Michael was the reason our wedding day was a wonderful experience and, God willing, in many years we will look back and still remember this day as one of the most beautiful days in our lives. We always had the impression, that Michael took care of the paperwork and all the preparations with great responsibility and attention to detail. Thanks to him, everything went smoothly, and our official marriage certificate arrived within less than a week. Michael is a very professional, compassionate wedding celebrant and we would recommend him to any couple who wants to experience a unique, romantic and well organised wedding ceremony. Andrea and Mohamed - Sydney, September 2019


We decided to marry in our beautiful garden on our 26th anniversary, with just our children, grandchildren and my mother present. Michael helped us design the exact kind of informal wedding we wanted. He responded to our questions and made excellent suggestions so that everything flowed smoothly. Everyone felt relaxed and at ease in his presence because Michael provides the perfect balance of warmth, humour and sincerity. We couldn’t have wished for more from a celebrant and, if you decide to utilise Michael’s services, you’ll be similarly impressed. Thank so much for the love and care you extended to us. Wendie Batho and Petrea King - Bundanoon, March 2019


I have known Michael for some 40 years- a person who embraces creativity, kindness, dignity, sincerity. A delightful personality who would bring any celebration alive as Michael loves people and genuinely understands the joy of hospitality. Supported by his beautiful partner, Edmund, Michael would be the best choice ever as a Celebrant- his empathy would be matched only by his professionalism. James Cutcliffe


Having worked with Michael in the past in an organizational capacity and attended services he was involved with, I can only say your experience in his hands will be thoughtful, positive, well organized, efficiently managed and uplifting. Maria


Michael is one of the most articulate speakers I know. His singing talents flow over into his well spoken MCing at events. He is a delight to work with in preparing special occasions to share with family, friends and community. He has had extensive experience speaking at and leading both corporate and community events. His warmth and joy flow over into his work. He calms those around him who may be feeling nervous and is also able to bring together different people to participate in a ceremony. If you want someone to help you prepare and lead a special event, choose Michael - his presence and support will assist you in creating and sharing an event that you will cherish for a lifetime.

Michael is one of the most creative people that I know. Coupled with that, he is beautifully attentive to his clients' needs, and is very thoughtful. Grainne
