“Just wanted to thank you again for the fantastic service you gave Siobhan and I.  We cannot think of anything that we would have asked you to do differently.  From the meetings that we had leading up to the day and the discussions with you about the vows and service content, we felt like we were in safe hands. And your sincerity and compassion are obvious. Many people commented how wonderful you were and more than a few said it was the best wedding that they had ever been to (sounds cliché but we keep hearing it from people !) and you clearly had a major part to play in that. I've have given your details to a colleague at work, who is looking to get married, and told her not to bother with anyone else.”

Sarah gave us encouragement to be creative and to have our day truly unique to who we are and what it means for us to be together. She made the pressure melt away and in its place was fun, love and excitement.

Mandy and Paul

Sarah was open, warm and receptive to our ideas. Shas great ideas but at no time makes you feel it should be done her way. We felt safe to leave the  'crafting' in Sarah's hands and it was very unique and personal. The ceremony was perfect.
