Celebrant Sue, where do we start! You were a treat to meet with your charisma and positive energy. We found you to be super organised and prompt throughout our preparations. We can’t thank you enough for what we felt was personalised and accommodating to my husbands sometimes inappropriate sense of humour. You helped us create a super duper, joyous and magical day. Our friends and family commented and thought the ceremony was light, joyous and moving. Your delivery and speech was enjoyed by all, you were such a great fit for us!

Sue is a very compassionate and caring Celebrant who listened to our preferences and shared her knowledge to help us create a very personal and unique wedding ceremony. Sue enhanced our experience with her upbeat, fun and excitable delivery. We are both very grateful for Sue's support, encouragement and her recommendations for other services, including setup, photography, makeup etc which we were also very impressed with. With Gratitude, Jane and Kathryn

We would highly recommend Sue Raward and her Lets Elope Team. We are from the UK and wanted to have a simple beach elopement on the Gold Coast. It all seemed very daunting until we found Sue. She explained everything to us and reassured us that, even though we were travelling across the world, this was not a problem to her and that she would organise everything for us. Unfortunately, Covid then came along and our plans were all put on hold. Several rearranged dates later, we were finally able to travel without restrictions and arrived in Australia just two days before our wedding. Sue met us the day before to do a run through of the ceremony and it felt like we were meeting an old friend, after 2 years of communication with her. On 7th November we finally tied the knot at Sue’s favourite secret elopement spot on Broadbeach with just our two Australian friends as witnesses. Sue knew we wanted a casual, fun but intimate ceremony and she certainly delivered that for us. She made us both feel so relaxed which enabled us to enjoy every moment. The stylist Angelina provided the perfect arbour and Rebecca the photographer was so unobtrusive during the ceremony we almost forgot she was there. The post ceremony pictures on the beach were just beautiful too. If you are looking for a Gold Coast celebrant who is fun and vibrant, but highly professional and organised then look no further. Whether you want a small elopement ceremony like ours was or a bigger, more formal affair, Sue is your person. Thank you so much Sue and your Let’s Elope Team. We had the most incredible day and you helped us make beautiful memories which will last a lifetime. Carolyn and Kevin

We are so incredibly grateful to have found Sue. From the very beginning Sue was unbelievably helpful and accommodating. We met for a few coffee dates before our wedding to go over the details and paperwork, Sue made the whole process a breeze! Sue had us both feeling very comfortable standing under the arbor, allowing plenty of time for laughs and smiles. Sue was also a hit with the family! Sue and the Let's Elope Gold Coast team were fantastic! We were actually due to me married during LaNina 2.0, but the team were more than happy to postpone for a sunny day. Not to mention the commitment for sunrise! It is clear by how much passion and attention to detail Sue provides, that she absolutely loves her job! What an amazing lady! One more thing, it's also nice to not be the only one in the photos with a smile so big their mouth is open! Hahaha! Thanks Sue!

Sue was absolutely amazing from start to finish for our wedding. I couldn't of wished for a more amazing person to be our celebrant. Thanks so much Sue xoxo
By Emma Wallace who married Ken Moffat on Wednesday, 26th October, 2022 at Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort Main Beach

How can I even begin to put into words the love I have for Sue. She was a breath of fresh air! Weddings are very stressful, but not with Sue! She guided us through every step of the way. Her fun-loving nature, amazing personality and great sense of humour was exactly what our wedding needed! I cannot thank her enough and would recommend her to ANY getting married.

Sue and the let’s elope team are absolutely amazing! We could not recommend them enough! Everything was easy, relaxed, beautiful and nothing was too much trouble. We were lucky enough to use the team twice once in 2020 when we eloped during covid. Then again in 2022 for a vow renewal/celebration for our families to enjoy! Everything was amazing, Sue has so much energy and makes everyone laugh! Bec makes you feel so comfortable when taking photos which can make you feel uncomfortable! You also get a sneak peak back quite early which is amazing! And Angelina makes everything look beautiful, and even filmed bits and pieces and made a mini reel! We will forever be grateful for the moments you have captured over the last 2 years! We will cherish it forever ❤️.

The only thing that put a slight dampener on our special day was the weather! While unfortunately we didn't have a typical Gold Coast sunny wedding, the personalised and caring service provided by Sue and the Let's Elope Gold Coast team shone through. From day one, we were cutting it fine to secure a team to help us organise our day. With just under three months until our date, we were extremely appreciative that Sue was able to accommodate us. Especially in the busy month of October!! Coming from interstate, the team made this such a stress-free affair... 'affair' the only time it is okay to mention this near a wedding'. Jokes aside, it seemed like all we had to do was show up on the day! Constant communication via email and zoom calls allowed us to plan and add personalised touches to the ceremony. Sue wrote and delivered a beautiful ceremony that captured the essence of us and our journey over the years as a couple. Once arriving on the Gold Coast she even met us during her busy schedule down at the secret elopement spot to ensure our nerves were settled and that we felt confident and prepared for the day. We received endless support and guidance with the completion of paperwork and lodging of forms. Her vibrant nature made the entire ceremony welcoming for all of our guests! Even during the windy day, Sue lent her shoal to one of our elderly family members to protect her from the wind. It's those little acts of kindness that made a world of difference on the day. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sue for any couple looking for a celebrant. If you are looking for the entire package, then look no further as the Let's Elope Gold Coast team has it all covered. A celebrant, wedding stylist and photographer all in one. Ange definitely has a knack for decorating, as our setting on the day was absolutely beautiful. All of our colours were incorporated throughout our setting and no request was too much for her. The arbour was picturesque and I appreciated her attention to detail and help immensely. Bec is a wonderful photographer, and even with no modelling experience she put us right at ease with great direction. Some of the sneak peek photos we have received back are incredible and can't wait for the rest! The ladies worked so effortlessly together. All aspects were organised - From coordination of scenery and decor, to the photos and the officiating of the wedding, everything was exceptional. While hopefully this is our first and last wedding, if we ever decided to renew our vows I would definitely engage the services of Let's Elope Gold Coast again.

Celebrant Sue was absolutely amazing at our wedding. Her professionalism, amazing positive attitude and reassuring presence made our day just perfect! She was so easy to communicate with every step of the way and was always willing to go above and beyond to ensure the day went brilliantly! We could not have chosen a better celebrant and anyone who chooses to have Sue on their day is incredibly lucky!

Sue is the best celebrant and MC. Thank you so much for everything you did on our special day. Sue went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Sue is kind, funny, caring and accommodating. I 100% recommended using Sue to be your celebrant. You won’t regret it!

We honestly could not be happier with how our big day went and it is all thanks to the beautiful Sue. Not only is Sue a ball of fun and will have you and your guests in fits of laughter, she is also professional and goes above and beyond throughout the whole process. I can not thank you enough Sue for everything. You honestly made our day! Our guests are still talking about how wonderful you were wish we could do the day all over again!

Our wedding was perfect, yes it rained, yes it could have been an ordeal, but in the hands of Sue it was easy. Sue is a professional. From our first meeting through to the day she was the right fit. Communication was easy, assistance was offered in all aspects, and she was supportive of our choices. We did things a little differently, changed our minds a couple of times, Sue made suggestions that helped shape things for a super fun, relaxed, stress-free day. Sue's outfit on the day was gorgeous, and she fit right in with our guests. They all commented at what a great role she played. I highly recommend Sue, for her flexibility, professionalism, caring and communication... You will be in safe hands with Celebrant Sue.
By Amber Woodroff who married Andrew Gray on the rooftop at Viscount on the Beach, Broadbeach on Friday, 2nd September, 2022.

The number of stars here aren’t enough to rate how happy we are with Sue and the rest of the team (Bec and Angelina). You ladies have been so helpful in preparing us and making the exact day perfect for us. No head aches - just chill, relaxing ceremony which both Flo and I loved. The spot was GORGEOUS (the weather on that day was a delightful bonus too😍). We couldn’t ask for anything more. Thanks heaps, Sue! I second all other reviews - you and the rest of team are definitely highly recommended!!! ❤️❤️❤️

We were so very lucky to come across Celebrant Sue. From the moment we met her we just knew she was the right celebrant for us. We wanted a wedding which was fun and was inclusive for both our family and friends which also demonstrated the love between my husband and I. Sue took time to hear our story of how we met, what type of ceremony we were looking for and overall really understood what was important to us.
Not only is it clear she loves what she does, she does it so very well. Even when my vows did not make it to her in time, she was so supportive in encouraging me just to say what was in my heart at that moment.
Celebrant Sue, we could not have asked for anyone better to marry us. Your laugh always made me laugh and your personality just had me smiling. Thank you so very much.
By Sandra Chalk who married Chris Quarry on Friday, 12th August 2022 at Gold Coast Farm House, Numinbah Valley.

My husband and I eloped in March with Sue as our celebrant. Sue was so personable and within moments of meeting, we knew she understood what we wanted out of our wedding ceremony. She was witty with her write up about our relationship, and reflected our love story so perfectly. On top of this, she was incredibly organised. (She even made an effort to call me a couple of days out to reassure me as she knew I was worried about the weather!). We couldn’t have pictured a more beautiful day, and it was all made perfect thanks to Sue and the Lets Elope team. Thanks Sue!

Celebrant Sue is the best. I can't recommend her highly enough. She is super organised, fun and trustworthy. She was so reassuring throughout the whole process, as every time I talked about anything wedding related, I'd cry in anticipation and excitement but she was so supportive! She was so much fun at our ceremony. Our Best Man pranked her with an empty ring box and her reaction was the best, she was so professional but relaxed and fun! The speeches she wrote were wonderful, her feedback on our vows was really helpful and she was a rock of reliability and professionalism on the day. She was also very photographer aware, so was out of frame in the key moments!!
By Emy Brenner who married Alvin Brenner on Saturday, 16th November, 2019 at Sol Gardens, Currumbin Valley.

Celebrant Sue is just the most amazing, beautiful, fun, human and I could not have asked for anyone better to be a part of our wedding day. For me, finding the right celebrant was really important, the second we spoke to Sue we knew she was the one. I cannot thank you enough, our entire wedding party have commented on how amazing you were Sue. Thank you.

We couldn’t imagine our magic day with anyone else, from the first encounter where we talked to get to know each other to the time we said “I Do”. Sue guided us and made us feel accepted and comfortable every inch of the journey. Sue you are honestly amazing, we thank you for your love and support. Warm regards,E&J xoxo

Such an upbeat, funny, caring, intuitive celebrant that has a gift for ‘getting’ her bride and groom and delivers exactly what you ask for. Words can’t describe the experience we had with Sue on our wedding day…she added magic to the air, talk to her and let her make your day ! Love Jane & Mark 02.07.22

We found Sue when we needed her the most. As soon as we contacted her and told her of our family situation, we knew she was the one to make it all possible for us. She got onto our shortening of time application that day so that we could marry within the week. We had our approval the next day! Given our circumstances we knew we needed someone special, we certainly found that in Sue. She went above and beyond, and made what was an emotional time a day to remember not just for us but our family too. I remember just looking around at everyone during photos, everyone was so happy and talking and there you were...just blending in with our family and friends. Who would have known you were actually the celebrant! But that just shows what a genuine, caring beautiful person you are! Sue thank you for your amazing organisation skills, being on the ball from the word go, for your wonderful recommendation on a venue (it couldn't have been any more perfect!), and for just being the amazing person and celebrant you are! Our day would not have been as perfect as it was without you.

Sue is amazing and helped to make sure we had the most fantastic day. Sue is so friendly and happy and helped us stay positive when we had a few postponements due to Covid. She was always available to chat and did everything possible to accommodate our date changes. She is ultra organised and every stage of our planning was easy. We could not be happier with our choice to have Sue as our celebrant and everything on the day was fabulous. The ceremony was beautiful and we will always remember Sue as being such an important part of our wonderful wedding day. Thank you so much Sue. You are fantastic and we would highly recommend you as the best celebrant on the Gold Coast.

Ross and I thoroughly enjoyed our wedding day with Sue at the helm. She is an amazing lady, full of fun and wit and with excellent attention to detail. Planning a wedding from Victoria to be held on the Gold Coast could have been tricky, but Sue smoothed the way for us and made everything super easy. All of our family and friends have commented on how lovely Sue was and how she helped make the day as special as it was. The team Sue works with, which includes a photographer and stylist, were indeed outstanding and we have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else contemplating a wedding at the Gold Coast. Their local knowledge was helpful also and assisted us in our choices of ceremony site, accommodation and reception. Thank you Sue and the rest of the team for being so wonderful!

Sue was our celebrant for our wedding on Saturday. From the moment I first spoke to her on the phone, I just knew she was the one! She was everything we were looking for.

Thank you Sue

This review is long overdue! Unlike Sue, I struggle with words. Right from the initial meeting Sue made us feel at ease, we were constantly in stitches and we knew straight away she was the one for us. She's one of those people that you could have only just met, but it feels like you've known her for a lifetime. She took the time to really get to know us and the ceremony she put together was incredible. She's organised, always willing to help and will always go the extra mile. I cannot recommend Sue enough!

From beginning to end Sue made things clear and easy. She was funny and had great energy. Being from NSW Sue was amazing help when I mentioned I was having trouble finding a spray tanner and within 15mins she had someone in contact with me and booked for the exact day I needed them. Now thats going above and beyond!! On our wedding day Sue made us feel calm and we laughed and laugh cried throughout the ceremony. We had an absolutely blast and even our families who were on live stream commented to us after our day that our celebrant was great! Thank you Sue

We 100% recommend Celebrant Sue and the team at Let’s Elope Gold Coast. The ladies are all professional and Sue is a wonderful celebrant. It really was a perfect ceremony. From the day I first made contact with Sue via email I knew she was the celebrant for us. Our wedding was a destination elopement (coming from Victoria on a 2 week holiday we decided to tie the knot) and everything was stress free. I did not have to worry about a single thing. Except turn up on the day! It was bliss. The lets elope Gold Coast team listened to what we wanted and went with our vibe from the start. Amazing! Thankyou Sue and the team

We had the most amazing, relaxing and stress free wedding all thanks to Sue. Being nearly 8 months pregnant on our wedding day and only 2 month notice due to a sudden decision to elope the day was nothing short of amazing. Not only did Sue help us with the process working up to the day but even assisted after. I have already recommended Sue and just elope to so many friends. If you want the best wedding experience, an amazing set up and photographer look no further than Sue to be your celebrant. Herself and team are nothing short of amazing ❤️

What can we say about Sue? At our first meeting she was amazing, well organized and a breath of fresh air. Sue navigated us through everything and was unflappable. We found Sue on FB as a Friend posted her prelim trailer video which is something she does for all her new couples. We instantly loved her style. Sue warmth, sense of humor and empathy is such a rare find these days. Thank you Sue for not only the life long memories but the new friendship we gained on our big day.

Sue was nothing short of incredible as our celebrant and we can't thank her enough. From our very first chat with Sue, we knew she was the celebrant who would marry us. She made the whole process so easy and kept us in the loop every step of the way. We couldn't believe how well she got to know us and our story just after one coffee meet up, she had absolutely nailed it and we didn't need to change anything in our ceremony. We were so happy when we got home from our honeymoon and our official marriage certificate had already arrived, and Sue giving us advice on how to easily change my name!

The time she took getting to know us as individuals and a couple in the lead up was just wonderful. The meet ups, messages, calls, postponement, rebooking etc was never a hassle.

Sue was our celebrant about a month ago for our VERY WET WEDDING! The first time I met Sue was just before walking down the aisle and can I say, her positivity and happy beautiful smiling face was just so contagious! Just as I was starting to get quite upset with the torrential rain and our wet weather option being a big failure, Sue pops up with the most incredible attitude and I couldn’t help but smile. She made me feel exactly like nothing else mattered in the world at that point in time (which it didn’t !) . Sue was just the perfect celebrant for us and made our ceremony so special. She told our story like she’s known us forever and made it the perfect mixture of funny, sensual, romantic, classy and just beautiful. Leading up to the wedding she made the whole process so smooth and easy, all the pre wedding paperwork etc, nothing was too much or a hassle for her. Long story short we were absolutely blessed with our celebrant and can’t recommend Sue enough! Thank you Sue xxx

When the first thing the mother of the bride says the day after the wedding is "Make sure you call your celebrant to thank her. She's the best I've ever seen!" you know you picked a good one! Sue was amazing from the very first time we met her. Her bubbly personality was infectious and her positivity and excitement were what I looked for when pandemic wedding planning got me down. Thank you Sue for everything. For your amazing organisation, your wonderful recommendations, and for just being the amazing woman and celebrant you are! I can say with complete honesty our day would not have been as wonderful as it was without you!

Well what can I say? We organised a GC wedding from Adelaide and started the search for the perfect local Celebrant. We found Sue! Talk about hitting the jackpot!! From the moment we first contacted Sue she made us feel welcome with her fabulous high vibe personality. She explained everything so clearly and was on the ball and so informative and professional from the word go. We then flew to the GC to meet with Sue and those feelings only grew. Sue made us feel so relaxed and we just knew she was the Celebrant for us. We could not have asked for a better experience and we were so pleased that when we asked Sue to join us for our reception (with a couple of MC duties) she jumped at the chance. We can not recommend Sue the Celebrant highly enough. She is an amazing lovely woman that will have you and your guests talking about your ceremony for years to come.

Sue was absolutely amazing! From helping us at the very beginning of our wedding journey, all the way through to the I do's. Her fun and bubbly personality was a hit with us and all of our guests! The details she remembered and delivered about our love story was truly heartwarming. Can't thank Sue enough for being our celebrant!

Hey Sue, Thank you so much, you and the Let’s Elope team were incredible and so wonderful, it was a pleasure meeting the three of you and I’m so grateful for all the work you put in for our big day. I love that you really encouraged our laid back nature and embraced it which led to a really relaxed ceremony for everyone. The ceremony looked amazing and the photos I’ve received so far look incredible I can’t wait for the rest

Sue and her team were absolutely amazing and Michele and I couldn’t have been more happier with how our special day went. Being from interstate and having to organise it all via email and Skype seemed daunting, but Sue made it so easy!! We can’t recommend Sue enough and would definitely recommend her to any local or interstate couples wanting to elope on the Gold Coast.

Angelina's setup was just perfect and she was super accommodating wi^th our number changes at the last minute. We are so in love with our photos from Rebecca. She gave us great direction and was so relaxed herself, it put us at ease. We couldn't recommend Let's Elope more, thanks ladies

It is truly difficult to put into words how much of a perfect match Sue was for us at our wedding. It can be a daunting process to scour through the list of celebrants available, but after a bit of Instagram stalking we felt that Sue would be a great fit for us. Amelia and I are so happy that we decided to choose Sue. Sue is the perfect mix of being professional and funny and she has the strange ability to make you feel like you have known her for a long time, which made the whole process stressless, fun and very personal. Sue, the impact that you have left on us will genuinely be cherished with the beautiful memories you helped create (including the great banter and light hearted insults lol). We have had so many guests approach us and compliment how great you were and how you made the ceremony fun and engaging. We would absolutely 100% recommend you to anyone looking for a celebrant.

Sue was absolutely amazing! Even though our elopement was short and sweet Sue still went above and beyond to ensure our wedding was as special as any other. Sue made sure everything was as stress free as possible leading up to our day! We couldn’t have asked for a better, more friendly and professional celebrant to marry us!

Meeting Sue was like a breath of fresh air. She’s an amazing person and celebrant. She is fun, light hearted and genuine. Sue is able to listen to your ideas, mix it with her years of experience and deliver the most beautiful ceremony in a way where everyone feels comfortable and has a laugh (even the most nervous of brides). Sue is organised, professional and takes care of the small stuff for you. We could not have asked for a better person to lead our special day. Thank you Sue! xo

Oh my!!!!

If you don’t want your guests falling asleep at your ceremony then she is your girl! honestly, we cannot thank you enough Sue…our day was so perfect and magical and we couldn’t have done it without you! thank you for being such a massive part of our day and for being the most amazing celebrant ever!!!!

Sue is the best! Honestly, she is so easy to talk to, guides you through the whole process and makes everything FUN! She is the ultimate hype woman! She really let's you know that you're in safe hands, and goes above and beyond to make everything perfect. Did I mention that she is hilarious? If you're looking for someone your guests will not only want to listen to, but laugh along with, Sue is the only choice! On a soppy note, she was a rock for me on the day. We were a Lockdown Wedding on Saturday July 31st. Lockdown started at 4pm. Our ceremony was originally scheduled for 4pm. Great luck right? Sue came to the rescue by getting there earlier, calming everyone's nerves, picking up everyone's spirits and getting the damn thing done pre 4pm! Even though Covid was there to throw a spanner in our day, Sue still made it feel like the perfect ceremony, and has even reached out after to check we're okay. What an absolute legend.
By Samantha Fitzpatrick who married Sam Holman at Gold Coast Farmhouse, Numinbah Valley on Saturday, 31^st July, 2021.

If you’re after a confident, bubbly and outgoing celebrant - look no further! Sue did an amazing job at our wedding and even turned up to our ceremony rehearsal run to take us through the process and to make sure we felt confident on the day. Getting married can feel overwhelming, but Sue made us feel confident in the process. Thanks Sue! Xx

Where do we even start? From our first meeting we fell in love with Sue. Her beautiful nature, marvellous sense of humour and incredible attention to detail, really made the whole planning experience so easy and stress free. We couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful ceremony that Sue put together for us. The day was magical and filled with a lot of laughs (a massive thank you to Sue for providing these laughs). We would recommend her to anyone getting married.

Sue Raward is the most amazing Celebrant! From our first meeting with her, she had us relaxed, laughing and excited. Her attention to detail was remarkable, and she helped us plan a perfect wedding. The ceremony was magnificent, and she made all of our guests feel welcome and included. We felt our nerves on the day change to relaxed excitement as she began what was a beautiful marriage ceremony. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

It's hard to put into words how much we appreciated having Sue be a part of our day. After 1 meeting she was able to write our whole love story and incorporate who we are into the ceremony. Sue is fun, bright, and brings enthusiasm to any event and she did that for us on our wedding day. Sue supports you through all the documentation and requirements you need to do and has made the logistics of getting married stress-free. I can't wait to catch up with Sue again in the future and so glad she was a part of our big day.

Thank you Sue for making our day such a success. Everyone commented on how lovely Sue was and how she made the day. She greeted our guests at the door, mingled with them making everyone feel so welcome and was so invested in 'our story' that everyone thought she was a family friend! Our ceremony was made so special with her bubbly natural approach. She was the perfect fit for our special day, highly recommend her.

Sue was our celebrant for our wedding in March. Our family lives in Ireland so they joined us via video call. Sue was nothing short of INCREDIBLE. She was so lively, fun & personable. She walked into my room while I was getting ready & she greeted me like an old friend. She brought along a wonderful friend to be a witness for us, and their energy was just magical. Beautiful people inside & out I could not have imagined a better celebrant for our wedding, and every single person there commented on how amazing she was!! Thank you so much Sue! People like you are gold! Lots of love xoxox

All I can say is wow. I first saw Sue on FB long before I was even proposed to and I knew that I wanted her to be my celebrant (a girl knows what she wants always). So when he popped the question I immediately knew who was going to be there by our sides. From the first time we met, I knew she was a cracker and we got along like two peas in a pod. She is so welcoming, polite, hilarious and just a super fun person to be around. We were meant to get married in October 2020 but because of COVID, we had to reschedule. None of this was a problem for Sue as she fit us in where she could.
On the day, I was so nervous, literally shaking from knees upwards but Sue helped Jesse and I get through the ceremony and never once rushed us, let us compose ourselves and even had a laugh with us throughout our vows. I cannot recommend Sue enough, she did so much for us and the ceremony that we had and the backstory she captured of us was perfectly put. We are so beyond thankful for Sue, you helped make our day so magical.

Sue, what can I say, you were absolutely amazing. We met you and it's like we fell in love with you straight away lol. All our little meets in-between just made leading up to the wedding so easy. You helped me keep my secret vows a secret from everyone until the big day. You make everyone feel comfortable, you make everyone laugh. I couldn't recommend you high enough. I wish we could relive the day it was amazing and your team who you work with too, Jane from Down the Aisle amazing. Thank you so so much for a perfect day. Best celebrant 2021 goes to you.

We met Sue about 12 months prior to our wedding and we are so thankful we did. She made everything so much easier. From the moment we met her we knew she was going to be perfect for our special day. She spent time getting to know us on a Saturday. Her communication throughout the lead up was awesome also. Leading up to the big day she recommended a rehearsal and took the time to do this for us and the bridal party. She honestly did such a great job at our ceremony and she is super energetic, hilarious and makes the experience very calm and collected and gets the crowd going also. We couldn't recommend her services highly enough, if you're looking to get married, definitely give Sue a call and have a chat with her. Thanks for all your help Sue.

We can not recommend Sue highly enough!! From the very first meeting with Sue we knew we had found the most perfect celebrant for us!! Sue was right beside us helping plan and create the most amazing wedding we could have ever imagined. Nothing was ever a problem for Sue, we unfortunately had to change our wedding plans several times due to COVID and bad weather, however Sue took it upon herself to make sure our special day was perfect and as stress free as possible. All of our wedding guests commented on Sue's infectious smile, fun and the happy energy she brought to our ceremony! Thank You so much Sue and the Lets Elope Gold Coast team for creating and sharing our special day with us, we could not have asked for a better team to share our special day with!!!

We were very confident in our choice of celebrant, but you well and truly exceeded our expectations. We are forever grateful ❤️

Testimonial below for Let’s Elope Gold Coast

Our Dream was always to have “Our Special Day”. After 21 years together, we were already committed BUT truly wanted to formalise our relationship. The 2017 “YES VOTE” for Same Sex Marriage was overwhelmingly accepted and encouraged us to fulfil our dream and be married.
We clicked on Celebrant Sue’s website and immediately we felt warm & fuzzy. The vibe was “Oh it must be Sue who marries us”. How right were we. Just perfect Sue.
We chose the “Elope Package”, contacted Sue and all was underway for our Special Day.
Sue is incredible, amazingly organised and a breath of fresh air. So passionate, enthusiastic and truly caring.
Sandy and I are delighted to have formalised our relationship by marriage and ever grateful it was Sue and her team who officiated on our day.
Thank you Sue and to our two secret witnesses (Rebecca & Angelina), we thank you too.

Sue is such a fun, cheerful and friendly celebrant. She has a lovely team with styling and photographer. Me and my husband wanted to get married soon, and we didn’t know what to do first, because we had never married before hehe.
When my husband and I had a meeting wi^th her for the first time,I could just feel the good vibe from her. She understood what we were feeling and what we wanted. She came up with some good ideas and suggestions. We are so grateful to have found her on the internet.
It was such a stressful time knowing we get married in 5 weeks, but she made it easier and stress free. She made a beautiful ceremony, beautiful words and everything was perfectly organised. She is just awesome! Very recommended! 😊

I saw Sue in action at a friend’s wedding a few years ago and I knew then that the day that I got married I already had my Celebrant sorted and how lucky we were that she said yes! We cannot put into words the gratitude and sheer adoration that we have for Sue, she loves her job and her clients and most of all she just loves the love! My husband and I had decided to elope with no guests at all and Sue helped us the whole way through with everything that we needed to do even offering witnesses if need be. She cares so much and has such fun along the way! Due to COVID our venue had to be changed 10 days out from D-day and she was so helpful and supportive to help us find a new venue and any other arrangements. On the day she turned up, with a smile from ear to ear eager to just help and have fun, not only did she come with a bottle of champagne in hand. After our ceremony (as many I’m sure) we were swooped off with the photographers and Sue helped tidy up the ceremony and just went above and beyond anything that was possible. We honestly couldn’t recommend her enough and don’t think our wedding day would have been the same if it wasn’t for Sue who helped us organise and seal the deal. Thank you soo much!

Thank you Sue, Angelina & Kirk for creating wedding perfection. Rich and I shared our ideas with you, and you met all our expectations - above and beyond.
From the first contact we had regarding our wedding Sue put my nerves at ease, everything was professional and extremely organised but also quite alot of fun. Sue has this infectious energy of happiness, even during covid restrictions this dream team were able to still assist with a beautiful, fun and happy wedding day. I can't not recommend enough. If you are stressed at the idea of a wedding, or don't know where to start like I was - just message Sue! From the first message everything will start falling into place and next thing your dream wedding day is prepared.
Thank you Sue, Angelina and Kirk for starting Rich and my marriage with such a beautiful evening filled with love, laughter and happiness. We will treasure these memories forever.

Celebrant Sue married my partner and I this weekend and she has made the whole process so easy and stress free.
She made us feel so comfortable from the initial meeting right through to the ceremony. Even helping to ease the nerves of my partner as he waited on my arrival.
Sue made herself available to assist with anything and was always just an email or phone call away.
From assisting us with the writing of our vows to helping move chairs on the big day no job was too big or small!

Sue has been an absolute legend through everything! She has been nothing short of amazing. We started the year off organised, excited and ready for our 8.8.20 wedding but then Covid-19 happened and it all sort of went downhill from there.
We had made the decision to continue with our wedding regardless, even if numbers were smaller due to restrictions and Sue was nothing but supportive. As the months progressed things started looking up for a slightly more 'normal' wedding and then all of sudden cases started rising and then borders were being shut and it all was looking really crap for our day. But Sue, she was there for us with solutions and ideas, suggestions, laughter and a big smile. We ended up getting married but on the 7.8.20 instead and it was amazing and beautiful and so memorable and I can honestly say not all possible if she didn't help as much as she did. Sue never once threw in the towel, she was happy to help and went above and beyond to be there for us.
Sue is passionate about her job and it shines through in every way. She has an enthusiasm and love for her job that I just adored and it came across straight away in our first conversation.
There is no one I would ever recommend then her to be your celebrant. She is the best and I'm confident if you choose her you won't be disappointed.

Sue came to the rescue after our wedding was postponed due to covid and our guests and celebrant were unable to fly in from interstate. With only two days notice and without even meeting Sue, I could tell she was the perfect fit to marry us and she absolutely pulled it off. We could not have picked a more FUN and VIBRANT celebrant and I really hope to cross paths again one day soon. Thank you for sharing our special day with us. Love Nicole, Jimmy and Luna ❤️

I'm not usually one to write reviews, however I felt it necessary to really help people decide if Sue is the right celebrant for you. Going into our wedding, we were very laid back, and what was important to us was having someone celebrate our marriage who was "on the same wavelength" as us. We didn't want formal, we didn't want everything sorted to the last dot. We're kinda more "go with the flow" kind of people (you know, the whole "bring your wedding date forward a day because weather and why the hell not, I can't wait to marry the love of my life") and Sue absolutely embodies that as a celebrant. But what you don't see during the process is any indication that Sue is doing incredible work behind the scenes. She helped organise absolutely everything, and it was effortless. It was such a breeze, you'd think that your friend is helping you organise your wedding, but in reality, Sue is working hard in the background, just making sure that everything goes smoothly for you. Sue is a wonderful, open, welcoming and warm human, with nothing but time, love and happiness for those around her. She has a positive and revitalising aura that is contagious and energising, and simply being in her presence is a breath of fresh air. She makes you feel confident in your decisions during what can be stressful time, and was always there to support any questions or concerns we had during the process. Sue and her team are relaxed, professional, down to earth and so welcoming to everyone around them. We are honoured that Sue and her team were the ones to officiate our marriage, and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone to engage Sue for her services. She is incredible and you won't find anyone like her. Thank you Sue for making our day so special.

Sue helped my husband and I elope during the COVID19 restrictions. We were so happy we found her because her service was spectacular, especially working with the restrictions during the time. She is always positive and very helpful and answered all of our questions and went above and beyond. Highly recommended.

Had an initial phone call and Sue was so efficient that we had everything sorted for our marriage application in one day. Sue guided us through all the requirements and preparations smoothly. She is so easy to communicate with and clear about the next steps. Sue married us in a small ceremony at home due to Covid but it was a ceremony filled with laughter and fun! Would recommend Sue to anyone who would love getting married in an easy, hassle free and lots of fun and memorable experience!

I had spent a couple of weeks Googling celebrants and had a couple of recommendations from other married couples but I just didn’t feel right with them. I wanted the person to marry us to have a certain quality about them. Someone who we trusted, who we could talk to about anything, who made us comfortable and one who we could maybe have a beer or wine with while we discussed one of life’s most important milestones.

I rang Sue one evening in May 2019 and we spoke for almost an hour. She was charming, eloquent, funny as hell and an absolute breeze to talk to. She got us even more excited for our wedding and I knew in my heart that she was going to be the celebrant for us.

We met Sue at a local tavern and we hit it off straight away. It was pure kismet. We laughed, I cried, we sank a few drinks and the entire time I kept thinking “I can’t believe how lucky we are to have found you”.

Over the next few months Sue, my husband and I talked even more and we started to form a very special friendship. She made the whole process so effortless and no question was too big, too small, too complicated or too stupid for Sue. Luke and I decided that we liked her and her lovely husband Dave so much that we invited them to our reception which they delightfully accepted.

My husband isn’t a wordsmith and a little self conscious about it but Sue gave him some really valuable advice and his vows ended up making everybody at our wedding cry. They were absolutely beautiful.

Sue went above and beyond the call of duty for us. She is a kind, generous, hilarious and a very passionate person. She absolutely loves what she does and you can tell because she is so bloody good at it.

The ceremony was like something out of a movie. Sue made people laugh, cry, be serious when the time came and she had this natural ability to connect with each and every one of our guests. Almost 3 weeks later and I am still getting rave reviews about Sue.

If you want a rigid wedding with no heart or soul then don’t call Sue.

If you want a fairytale wedding, one that you can talk about for years and pass stories on to for the generations after you then please do yourself a favour and have a chat to this amazing Fairy Godmother of weddings.

We love you Sue and we can’t thank you enough for what you did for us. The memories that you helped us to create will be forever in our minds and in our hearts.

We have both been so blown away with Sue's service as an amazing celebrant. She helped us create the perfect atmosphere for our ceremony. At short notice we had to cancel our original ceremony/wedding because of the COVID-19 restrictions and Sue found the perfect location for an intimate impromptu wedding with just our families.

Sue set up the location beautifully and re-worded the ceremony so that it fit in perfectly with the vibe of the event. Thank you so much Sue we couldn't have got married in these circumstances without you.
Love Nicole and Frankie Walker.

Sue you guys* were amazing! Thank you so incredibly much for being part of our special day. Sue, you have supported us throughout the whole process so amazingly well, from beginning to finish, with humour, kindness and always being on pulse with any questions and support.
Kirk is such a talented photographer and his photos came out beautifully from what we saw on the sneak peek.
Angelina created a beautiful altar and everyone’s energy was so positive and supportive.
We can’t thank you enough for making our day so special. Thank you for making sure the certificate is processed so quickly and always being so quick to respond and handle everything with ease.

I honestly have no words to describe how amazing Sue is.
She loves being a wedding celebrant & it showed so much through our gorgeous ceremony!!!
The laughter, the tears, the many jokes which had the whole crowd laughing!!!
I can’t tell you how much I adore Sue.
Rob & I did have to make many changes to our original wedding plan, none of this would have been possible without Sue’s help. The phone calls & texts were constant for a while, and no matter the question I had Sue always gave me a solution!!!
We organised a dream wedding in less than six weeks!!! Our wedding day could not have been more beautiful!!! Kurt our photographer was amazing, Angelina our wedding stylist did a beautiful job on Froggy’s Beach!!!
I can’t express enough thanks to everyone involved!!! Sue Thankyou for making our wedding day so magical, you truly are so genuine & passionate with what you do, everyone just loved you!!! Rainbows don’t appear for nothing & Rob & I had one on our beautiful day!!! ❤️☀️🌈💍🌺❤️

Sue was absolutely amazing! From the moment we met I knew I wanted Sue to marry us. She made everything so easy, took the time to really get to know me and my husband and made our ceremony personalised and one of a kind.
She absolutely nailed it with the perfect amount of humour and seriousness making our guest go from crying one moment to laughing the next and really capturing who we are as a couple. Being heavily pregnant and organising a wedding Sue really made sure I was ok every step of the way. It really felt like we had one of our family friends we knew for years marrying us even though we had only met a few months in advance.
Now, weeks later after our wedding I still have comments from my guest telling me how perfect our ceremony was and Sue will forever be a special part of our lives. I really can’t recommend Sue highly enough.

We're so happy we picked Sue as our celebrant. She was great in the lead up to the wedding, took the time to have a drink with us and get to know us. Plenty of contact in the lead to make sure we had everything in order. The ceremony was just what we wanted; it was genuine, engaging and there were plenty of laughs. Lots of people came up to us after the wedding and raved about how good she was!

Sue made our day so much more special. She went to a lot of trouble to understand who we were and our journey and talked about this at the ceremony. Made it so much more personal. She was very efficient and helpful throughout the whole process. She took all the stress out of it. AND, she is such a wonderful personality!!! Bright, happy, fun, sincere - ALL IN ONE PACKAGE..

The most amazing celebrant ever! We first met Sue for our first meeting a year before getting married. I thought it would just be a quick meeting but 2 hours later we were still sitting at the coffee shop laughing ourselves silly. We knew straight away Sue was our lady! Over the next year she helped us out with everything we needed for our ceremony. Made everything effortless for us from start to finish. And she did not disappoint at the ceremony! The perfect amount of serious when needed and light hearted, warm and funny. Our family and friends commented for weeks after how great she was 🙌😍 we are so grateful to have had Sue as our celebrant ❤️❤️❤️ we love you!

Sue is a dynamic, organised, bubbly and friendly lady. Sue made both my husband and I feel relaxed that she had it all under control and her guidance along the pre-wedding requirements was gold. Sue has a great sense of humour and maintains a professional and efficient operation. I would highly recommend Sue to anyone looking for a friendly, thoughtful, well prepared, clear communicator to be married by. Thank you Sue! You are awesome!

Sue made everything simple, stress free by her bubbly personality yet very professional. Back in 2018 I contacted Sue to marry us at the hospital room where my step dad was. I was very stressed and really wanted to make it happen. Sue simply explained what we could do and we had it done in a very simple way. 🌟✨⭐️ Then again this year we made it official over the weekend. You touched our ❤️❤️❤️ with your magic words that you have put together. Everyone was so happy, enjoyed and relaxed all under your spell. 😊. Thank you so much. We love you ❤️❤️❤️ and we will definitely recommend to everyone we know that Celebrant Sue is the best celebrant on the GoldCoast 👍👍👍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We could not have asked for a better celebrant to help us navigate our big day! Sue was so easy going and patiently coached us through each step, perfectly tailoring our ceremony to us as a couple. For the ceremony itself, she was so calm and reassuring, but also so fun and energetic- all our guests loved her and she definitely made the day.

On the 10.7.19 Sue married myself and my partner of 8 years. We were looking for something private and quick. Living in NSW but planning a QLD elopement for an already planned holiday in 5 weeks sounded completely crazy and impossible. Haha
That was until I contacted Sue, she listened to what we wanted and made it happen. Through emails and phone chats she made us confident we’d entrusted this in the perfect person.
Everything went amazing and so smoothly, better than we could have ever dreamed.
Jay and myself were 100% at ease with Sue and so were our two boys who loved being included and part of the ceremony. We cannot thank the dream team* of Sue, Kirk and Angelina enough for all their extraordinary work. ❤️❤️❤️

Sue married us in June this year. From start to finish Sue was down to earth, organised, friendly and made us feel comfortable. Both of us on the day were nervous wrecks but Sue settled us down and made our special day wonderful. Many of our guests commented on how great Sue was and still bring her up 6 months later. Would recommend to anyone looking to tie the knot.

We will keep in touch ❤️

Wow.. I can’t even put into words how truly amazing Sue was as our wedding celebrant! She put together our ceremony in such a fantastic way that captured mine and my husband's personalities. She spoke about how we met in such a beautiful way that had me and our guests laughing, crying and reminiscing all at the same time. The months leading up to the wedding Sue touched base regularly to make sure we were on track with our vowels and helping out with any questions we had. On the day Sue made the whole wedding party feel at ease and really made an effort to mingle with guests and set the tone for our magical day. Sue was articulate, personable, heartfelt, funny and most importantly put it all together in a way that was “us” and exactly how we wanted it. Thank you Sue for being AMAZING you were perfect. X

Where do we even start? Both my partner and I couldn’t have chosen a better celebrant if we tried! From the first point of contact with Sue, we knew she would be great! She is a very welcoming, passionate, professional and funny individual and knew she was going to make our ceremony perfect! Sue went above and beyond to make sure we both felt comfortable and that our ceremony was going to be one to remember! Our guests were also very pleased with her and how well she managed to create such a beautifully relaxed ceremony. She did have a challenge with Ben, who, if She wasn’t there, would’ve literally passed out from all his nerves! So WELL DONE with that one Sue! 😂 But in all honesty, if you are still searching, then stop! Because you can’t go wrong with Celebrant Sue! Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts!

We were fortunate enough to have Celebrant Sue marry us in Melbourne in June 2019. Sue was absolutely amazing from the beginning and incredible on our big day. It was such a pleasure (and easy) to work with Sue, as she understood exactly what we were after for our big day which made the planning a breeze. On the day Sue was incredible, managing anything that came her way, both expected and unexpected and totally set the atmosphere for our wedding. Our guests loved Sue and we received so many compliments. Thank you Sue!

Thank you Celebrant Sue ~ you are awesome! Words cannot express how wonderful you were, an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end ~ in the rain and all on our wedding day. With such professionalism you executed our ceremony as the water ran down your face & dripped from your microphone, asking us “do you want to continue? Yep? Let’s do this!”
You kept talking & laughing with us ~ we ended on a high & you ended up drenched. Literally.
You are simply amazing and we are extremely grateful ~ keep doing what you do ~ we highly recommend you xo

Sue was the perfect fit for our wedding. From our first meeting with Sue, we knew we had picked the right person to marry us. She is so easy to talk to and literally goes above and beyond to try and make this process a hell of a lot easier than it has to be! She gave me full creative license to chop and change our ceremony as many times as possible, in the end this resulted in the perfect ceremony, we would not change anything in retrospect! She provided us with inspiration for our vows and made sure my hubby got his vows in by the due date! On the day she was a familiar face and felt as if she was just as excited as us to be there with our friends and family. She delivered a flawless ceremony and managed to win our guests over. We had so many compliments about Sue. Her pricing is so reasonable for the amazing service she provides. Sue played such a special role on our day and we are so glad she was part of our day!

Sue is truly the most helpful and amazing celebrant. She made the whole process very simple and calming and her help with our Vows were greatly appreciated. My wife wife Linda was extremely nervous leading up to the big day but Sue made her so comfortable leading up to and during the ceremony. She made our guest feel involved and they all commented on how vibrant and good Sue was.

She was warm, friendly and very organised giving us all the information and materials we needed to prepare for the big day well in advance. On the big day Sue was excellent! So many of our guests complimented the ceremony, which Sue orchestrated with good humour and style! Sue followed up with us briefly after the wedding too to make sure everything was in order which was great. Sue was professional but easy going, and an absolute pleasure every step of the way!

Sue was our celebrant this past 12^th of April. My (now) husband found Sue online last year and from our very first communications with her up to now has been nothing short of wonderful. When we met Sue was so funny and easy to talk to. We didn’t look at any other celebrants. Her organisation made the process seamless for us. We changed the wedding date multiple times on her, changed the ceremony format (private elopement to full ceremony), and on the day had to delay our ceremony an hour due to weather. Through all of this Sue was nothing but understanding, helpful, and full of humour. She made us feel comfortable every step of the way and even provided helpful advice when we needed it. Ultimately, we could not be any happier with our choice to have had Sue be part of our important day. Thank you for everything!
By Marisol Rodriguez who married Grant Grierson at the Cascade Gardens, Broadbeach on Friday 12^th April 2019.

Celebrant Sue MADE our wedding! Our ceremony was so intimate, unique and special. She recognised our needs without prompting and tailored a beautiful ceremony incorporating our 3 children into it. She added humour to the intimacy and kept some of the traditional elements to our modern day ceremony. She was well prepared and organised throughout the lead up to, and on, our big day. She addressed our guests by name without needing introductions and made everyone feel at ease. I would recommend Sue to everyone! Thank you Sue xx i’m so glad you are a part of our Story.

Sue married my husband Peter and I on 16 March 2019. Hands down, she was one of the best things about our magical day!
One of our main concerns when choosing a celebrant was that we wanted to have someone who felt ‘familiar’, like they had known us forever! Our worries about that dissipated immediately when we met Sue about 6 months before our big day! On the day, Sue was AMAZING. Her narrative about our story was funny and warm, she had us and all of our guests giggling throughout the whole ceremony! The happiness in her voice as she went through the ceremony cannot be faked - Sue genuinely cares about her job and the couples she marries and we feel so lucky to have been one of them!
Sue, you are the perfect amounts goofy, hilarious, warm, happy, supportive and hands down GORGEOUS. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for marrying us Sue! ❤️

I was recommended to contact Sue and Sue was the only celebrant we reached out to. When we first met, Leith & I looked at each other & gave each other a look. That look was (yep, she's fantastic haha) we just knew she was perfect for us. She just got us! She knew we were laid back, she asked the right questions, always kept everything personalised and specific to us as well. We chose not to write our own vows because well she basically did it for us, which again was so us! She was honestly fantastic and we were so grateful to have had her ❤
Thanks so much Sue! Xx

Thanks Matt!

Sue - firstly I really can’t put into words how amazing you are. You performed the wedding for my daughter Jessica to Ben in a sunflower field - I think you were heaven sent!! Truly I don't know how Jec found you - if she wrote a wish list for her wedding you would have a tick in every box. Even watching thousands of miles away you made me feel like I was actually there. I felt like I knew you and was so comfortable with you. I can't imagine anything being done better. You should be called “Angel Sue” because that's what you are. You understood what Jec wanted and needed better than she did and out performed yourself. Maybe you have a magic wand - whatever you do keep doing it!!! You are “perfection”!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You being there made me feel better about not being there!! Not sure if that makes sense but I'm sure you know what I mean!!

Sue recently married Nick and I in December. She was amazing and all our guests loved her as much as we did! She is a wonderful celebrant and has a great sense of humour and is also very professional. She made us feel very special on our day. Highly recommend Sue.
By Elaine Bain who married Nick Bain at Mercure Gold Coast Resort in Carrara on Saturday 22^nd December 2018.

We feel so blessed to have had Sue as our celebrant. As soon as we met with her for coffee we knew that she was ‘the one’! She is professional and organised and guided us through everything from start to finish. She is such a beautiful person, inside and out, and is so much fun! Our friends and family loved her and talked about how amazing she was after our ceremony. The staff at our wedding venue were also really impressed and complemented Sue! She made us feel so relaxed and special and ensured our ceremony was personalised and unique.
We highly recommend that you choose Sue! Anna & Scotty x

My husband and I decided to elope on the Gold Coast whilst on our family holiday with all the children. After doing some research I found Sue. She was so lovely right from our initial email. Sue is so friendly, funny, her sense of humour is perfect. Her professionalism was next to none. I found trying to organise everything was easy as she had all the important side of it all sorted. We had a beautiful, slightly emotional ceremony. Everything we dreamed of! I highly recommend Sue, you really won’t be disappointed!

We had the pleasure of Sue marrying us on our big day last week. She made our wedding personal in every way. Her ability to read her couple's and work with us in our pre planning to deliver exactly what we wanted was spot on. Not only professional but fun, friendly, reliable and just great all round vibe to have standing with us sharing our day. We are proud to have her in our wedding day memories for the rest of our lives. Thanks Sue you're the best.

Omg what a bloody legend, I picked sue by a photo, because unlike some of the other photos she looked like a fun person, and that's exactly what we got and day of fun and a ceremony full of laughter. Professional on every level in her field and a personality that could adapt to everyone from the stuck up guests to the let's get sloshed ones. All my guests commented on how well she just clicked with my partner and myself, which was what I wanted and got. If I was silly enough to do this again, I’d pick sue all over again. Very highly recommend
By Charlie Knowles, married to Gary Knowles at Quality Hotel, Mermaid Waters on Friday 11^th November 2018.

Sue recently married Dave and I in November. She was amazing, made the whole process so easy. She has a great sense of humour and makes you totally relaxed from the first meeting. She gave us lots of ideas, and was very flexible allowing us to put together our perfect day. It was an absolute pleasure having Sue as our celebrant. I feel we have made a lifelong friend (even if she does like Cats 😉) . Would happily recommend Sue to anyone who is looking for a down to earth, fun, experienced professional.

I’d like to start with stating how easy the process was with Sue. Me and my new husband are both incredibly happy with Sue and her rapport building skills/professionalism and humour. If you are wanting a unique ceremony tailored to you I would recommend working with Sue. She is extremely bubbly, REAL and the choice of wording used was exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. Our certificate was handled by sue and posted directly to us no need to wait in lines or take the time to register ourselves. She also sent links for name changes which is so convenient. Thank you sue for making our day special, we are both grateful to you!

Massive huge thank you to Sue! We had never met Sue before, only liaised through email and text and one phone call. Our big day came as we traveled interstate to get married and Sue was more than we expected. Her professional and incredibly friendly approach made our day so easy and we felt relaxed throughout the ceremony and even more relaxed leading into our ceremony the months/ weeks prior. The day was perfect and easy which is what every bride and groom need! Thank you so much Sue, we will never forget our day and would highly recommend you to anyone wanting such a memorable experience.

We just wanted to thank you for making our day on Monday so special. From your first email to Matt all those months ago, to me chopping and changing my mind about almost everything – you have been amazing. Both you and Alex (photographer) went above and beyond your roles in our ceremony and we will forever be grateful. I cannot speak highly enough of either of you. We had a whirlwind trip and an incredible few days, thank you doesn’t seem enough. You’re an asset to the Gold Coast Sue and one of the most delightful women I’ve encountered.

After a 27 year wait, it was wonderful to walk down the aisle with my beloved and see Sue's giant smile at the end of it - it made us feel in safe hands. From our first meeting, we knew Sue had the energy to match the buzz we wanted to create at our wedding. From helping us create the perfect ceremony to easing us through the all the legalities, Sue was there for us all the way through the lead up until the time we were hitched and celebrating our marriage. Sue is full of energy and life and brought her expertise to help us get the perfect wedding ceremony just for us. Thanks to Sue for being a very important (fun, friendly and buzzy) part of our most awesome wedding day.

Mark and I were fortunate to have Sue as our celebrant for our wedding in April 2018. Weddings can be stressful, however, with Sue by our sides it was a breeze. We were super confident in her knowledge and organising of all legal documents. The best part was her absolute engagement with our journey from when Mark and I met to the big proposal - making our ceremony very special and personable. Sue was just as excited as us on our big day . Thank You Sue for being the unique, fun and passionate personality that you are and bringing all of that into our day.

Thank you Celebrant Sue! My husband and I (ooh I do like saying that!) are so happy we chose you to marry us. We had an amazing elopement ceremony on Australia Day 2018 at the Rhapsody Resort with a lovely view of the sunny Gold Coast beaches as a backdrop. After an initial call with Sue, the paperwork was all done by email and she gently prompted us to provide the necessary documents and our respective marriage vows along the way. Sue prepared a lovely personalised ceremony and delivered it beautifully with lots of smiles and laughter. She provided two lovely witnesses and recommended a great photographer. I don’t know of any other couples who had an Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi incorporated into their ceremony! Brilliant! Thanks again Sue, we had a ball. Sue and Michael.

I had a strange request, I needed to plan a wedding in 6 weeks, well that was a challenge, but it was also a surprise wedding for my fiancé who is in the army and would be home for Xmas, so to say the least Sue was my savior so much fun yet so professional. I knew I was in good hands. Sue absolutely made our ceremony exactly the way I wanted it, fun yet still with that romantic side, just perfect and I couldn’t have asked for more. I highly recommend Sue. Thank you again, Love, Mr and Mrs Duckwitz (yes I love the sound of that).

When we were looking for a celebrant we had no idea what to expect or what exactly we were looking for other than that we were looking for someone to make our day special and someone who genuinely understood exactly why we were getting married and Sue was that person without question! Our wedding was an elopement and although it was just us Sue made sure it felt so special with her vibrant personality. She also made everything so easy, she helped us through everything and we both felt completely confident in her! We had the most beautiful ceremony, beyond my imagination and we were so happy to have Sue there! It almost felt like family! Beautiful, genuine woman! I would definitely definitely recommend her if you are looking for someone you can trust with one of the most memorable days in your life! Thank you so much Sue! It was such a pleasure!

Where do I start? You are the most awesomest person. What can I write to express my utmost appreciation to you for what an amazing person you are. Not just as a celebrant, but as an individual. You are so special. I know you were our celebrant but you were so much more. I know this sounds kind of weird but I sort of consider you a friend even though we will probably never cross paths again. I hope you are still working as a celebrant when my daughters get married. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. XO

Normally celebrants are just that - boring and put me to sleep. When choosing ours, I was after someone with a bright and bubbly personality to conduct our ceremony. After seeing Sue's picture and then talking to her on the phone, I had a good feeling that she was what we were looking for. Once we met Sue, I knew straight away that she was the one to marry us. From the start to the finish, she was so easy to work with and was always there to answer any questions. On our wedding day, Sue went over and above our expectations and created and delivered everything we asked for. We both highly recommend Sue for your wedding day. She absolutely made our special day.

If I had to use one word to describe Sue it would be: Genuine. With her you will find someone who is both professional and warm. Not only was she friendly and easy to deal with, but she genuinely cared about us and what we were after. She's a lot of fun too, and even though we'd only just met, Sue felt like a friend you'd known for years. We found choosing a Celebrant to be one of our hardest tasks in the lead up to the wedding. For us it was all about ensuring that our celebrant was able to appeal to not only our tastes, but the tastes of a fairly diverse and dynamic crowd. The number of comedian hipsters who think they're funny that are working in this field is mind boggling. At one point we had real concerns that we wouldn't find "The One" for us. As soon as we met Sue, our search was over. I am quite confident in saying that the dynamic that she added to our wedding could not have been matched by anyone else. We cannot recommend her highly enough and know that any future couples wanting to use her will feel the same as us. So thanks Sue! You're a wonderful Celebrant, but most importantly, a wonderful person.

Sue was perfect. Perfectly delivery for the crowd and she did her duties with warmth and a personal touch that we cannot fault. Not only that she was able to adapt on the fly as the day evolved. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Had my sons naming day on the weekend (12^th November 2016) Sue was awesome!!! Had so many people ask me how I knew her and comment on how real and natural she was. We wrote the speech together which meant that we could make it really personal and she was even able to yell over what felt like gale force winds so all the guests could hear. Was a great day and so glad Sue was a part of it!!! xx
