We actually chose Amber because out of all the celebrants we contacted, she was a bit cheaper than the rest - and it turned out to be a good decision, because she was just so lovely. We only met her twice and she made us feel so relaxed - she is very softly spoken and just so polite and genuine. It was so nice to have her marry us - it really felt like it was just a friend of ours marrying us. After the wedding she sent us a beautiful letter which was quite unexpected as I think she’s quite a popular choice in Newcastle, so for her to take time to write to everyone afterwards is quite amazing and speaks volumes I think!

We got married in the Sacred Heart Church at Hamilton, but they have so few priests nowadays that we had to BYO! John is a Deacon which means he can perform weddings and baptisms, and is also married. He had a sense of humour, explained everything, and just a generally lovely manner about him.

Great bloke and really passionate about what he does. He was so easy to deal. He made our ceremony nice and relaxed and even made us laugh through it. I keep getting comments from our guests about how great Tony was and what a nice service we had.
