Do not hesitate to book: Excellent experience from start to finish!
Where do I even start? I believe Joanne may be the kindest person I have ever met. We consider ourselves truly lucky to have had her as our celebrant. From early planning to the final moments during our ceremony she was a calm, competent "rock" for us, guiding us through it all - even our baby daughter crying during the ceremony. I could not recommend her enough. Thank you so much, Joanne!

Thank you so much for everything.
Joanne, wow. Thank you so much for everything. The ceremony was exactly as we had imagined & even better than we could have ever planned for. You have conducted yourself in such a professional but caring & humble way throughout the process & myself & Nikhil feel truly blessed to have chosen you as our celebrant. We hope that you also enjoyed the ceremony. We have had so many heartfelt compliments already about how lovely your aura/energy is and how comfortable all of the guests felt throughout. I feel you integrated and represented Nikhil’s culture and religion beautifully which was received so gratefully by all of us, including Nikhil’s family that attended virtually.
We truly wish yourself & your daughter every happiness, success & love & feel blessed that our paths have crossed.

Thank you so much for being a part of it
Thank you so much for being a part of it! You kept it so stress free for us. Which is just amazing considering how close it was to the day. Your ideas and information you sent over put our minds at ease and even when we were nervous about saying our own words you helped and I am so happy you did because the words were beautiful.

It Was The Most Beautiful Ceremony
Joanne done our ceremony at Vallum Farm on 28.5.22. It was the most beautiful ceremony and every one of our guests commented how beautiful the ceremony was. From the day we asked Joanne about our ceremony through website to the wedding day was so straight forward and no stress at all. Joanne met us in our home and asked us about everything to do with us and our ceremony. It was everything and more we could have wished for. I would recommend Caritas Ceremonies to anyone looking for a celebrant ceremony.
Thank you so much again for everything Ashleigh and David Reeson

Thoughtful, Professional And Outright Amazing
My husband and I booked Joanne for our wedding at Hallington Mill on 7 May 2022. Joanne from start to finish was absolutely faultless. She spent time and care helping us pick out every last detail of the ceremony to how we wanted it. She’s thoughtful, professional and out right amazing. We cannot recommend her enough. No doubt in my mind she would do the best job you could ever ask for. All our guests said how brilliant she was. Before, during and after, Joanne went above and beyond our expectations. She loves her job and it shows. Nothing negative to say at all.

Very professional, patient and showed a great sense of responsibility
Before we met Joanne, we had no idea about the wedding process. She gave us lots of advice regarding the ceremony and listen patiently to our needs. She also recommend songs for our ceremony after knowing our requirements. she was very professional, patient and showed a great sense of responsibility which allowed our wedding ceremony to be perfect and unforgettable.
I would recommend her to all my friends who are getting married.
