  • Where do we begin... Sharelle was beyond incredible. Her meticulous planning made everything a breeze, we were so confident everything would run smoothly from the moment we met her.

    She was able to tailor our ceremony to fit our personalities perfectly. We told her we wanted a fun ceremony to keep the guests entertained and to say she nailed it is an understatement. She made our guests laugh but also feel the warm and fuzzies.

    Sharelle is the perfect combination of organised and professional, but also relaxed. She was full of helpful tips and made the whole process absolutely seamless. She made us feel completely in control which was one less stress in the lead up to the day.

    She has a wonderfully warm and bright nature and we honestly could not have asked for anyone better to be there with us as a celebrant on our wedding day. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful our ceremony was and how fantastic she was.

    We want to thank Sharelle from the bottom of our hearts for such a magical day.

  • How blessed we were to have Sharelle Lincoln officiate our wedding. Not only was she amazing on the day, bringing together all of our ideas and making our special day even more memorable. But she was also a godsend in the lead up too.

    Sharelle came up with ideas to help celebrate the merging together of our blended family and researched a way we could get married without the expense of wedding rings - ask her about the red string of fate - AMAZING!!

    I wish I could give Sharelle more than 5 star, from the bottom of my heart I thank her for making our day truly wonderful and I cannot recommend her highly enough!!

  • Sharelle was a pleasure to deal with. In my interactions with her, she was friendly, full of energy, and just high quality all around. Honestly, it was like she had been a part of the family for years.

    The way she understood the bride and groom’s needs, just showed that she was fully invested and not just doing things for the sake of it.

    I would highly recommend Sharelle to anyone needing a celebrant in the future.

  • Thank you Sharelle. You performed a beautiful ceremony that went perfectly well with none of the old stuffiness.

    You had gentle but firm control and your genuine care was shining and clear for all to see.

    You made my daughter and son-in-law's day very special. On behalf of everyone, a heartfelt thank you.

    - Father of the bride

  • From the moment Sharelle phoned to introduce herself as the marriage celebrant for my son’s wedding I felt she oozed warmth and genuine friendliness.

    Sharelle was a great communicator and kept me (and I presume others) involved up-to-date with wedding protocols, expectations, etc.

    On meeting Sharelle my initial vibe about her personality and warmth certainly was correct and I could tell she was the right person to marry my son to his now wife.

    She conducted the ceremony with decorum and the evening with grace and fun. I would highly recommend Sharelle as a Marriage Celebrant or a Celebrant for any occasion.
