ARRAN & rACHEL

"I feel like there aren't even words to describe how much we loved having Mel at our wedding. Right from the start we bonded straight away over our dogs and I knew I had found our celebrant!

Over the next months Arran and I both felt that Dave and Mel were more friends than just a wedding vendor. To include special surprise additions to our ceremony and interact with our family and friends is what takes Wed with a Twist above and beyond.

5 stars, 10/10 whatever the highest ranking is!!!

Words can’t describe how blessed we were to have Mel as our celebrant!

Thanks Mel xx"

"Where do I even begin? Mel was absolutely incredible! She was warm, friendly, bubbly and went above and beyond to ensure our ceremony was nothing short of perfect!

She was professional, an excellent communicator, and was so very accommodating with special requests we threw her way. Mel kept our nerves down and we really connected with her right from the start!

We absolutely loved the fact that Mel told our love story, interacted with our family beforehand and incorporated surprise sections in our ceremony. Our ceremony felt so real, honest and funny - exactly what we asked for!

We would highly recommend Mel to anyone looking for a down to earth, all round outgoing celebrant who will not only wed you with a twist but feel like your friend by the end of the whole process. ❤️ "

MICHELLE AND PETER

"What an amazing individual and celebrant Mel is! She ensured that our ceremony was a perfect refection of us as a couple - casual, engaging, heavily involving our close family and friends and balancing both our cultures (Greek and Vietnamese). She also very diplomatically mediated on our behalf when the stress became a little too much.

Our ceremony was incredibly personal and full of laughter! We had so many guests approach us afterwards to give compliments on the ceremony - most were along the lines of “that was the best ceremony we’ve ever seen” and “your celebrant did an amazing job”.

Mel really does go above and beyond and it’s clear she absolutely loves what she does. We felt fully supported right from the beginning - style of ceremony, types of rituals, writing our own vows. Oh and her husband Dave is a total pro, handling the music.

We highly recommend Mel and Wed with a Twist! If we could give more than 5 stars, we would!"

 
Mel, you are truly born to be a marriage celebrant.
— Steve and Paul
It is difficult to articulate just how amazing Mel is as both a celebrant and a person, but I’ll give it a try! Mel was an absolute delight to work with, and she created a beautiful ceremony that represented us perfectly! It was the highlight of our day and we can’t thank her enough.
We would recommend Mel in a heartbeat.
— Mel and Mat
As soon as I spoke with Mel, I knew she was the right celebrant. I could not imagine our day without Mel. I will be recommending her service to anyone looking for a celebrant.
— Anthony and Kylee
The ceremony was heartfelt and personal, there was not a dry eye from our guests.
Mel also knew exactly how to calm our nerves and make our guests laugh.
We are incredibly grateful and indebted to Mel, we cannot thank her enough.
— Blake and Peter
Mel, thanks to you we had the wedding we really wanted... relaxed, focused on family and most importantly full of surprises!
— Carmen and Lyndon
You have found the love of your life and now you have found your perfect celebrant!
Our guests said it was the most personalised, fun and unique ceremony they had attended.
If you want your ceremony to reflect your relationship and give you the best start to your married life, we could not recommend Mel more highly!
— Shelley and Michael
Our guests are still commenting on how our wedding was the most personal and unique one they have been to... We cannot recommend Mel highly enough!
— Terry and Lisa
Where do I begin? I cannot recommend Mel enough!
We wanted a fun, relaxed and humorous ceremony and that’s what we got!
The ceremony was my favourite part of the day!
— Laura and Ben
We had met a few celebrants before Mel but once we did, our minds were made up!
— Steve and Taryn
Mel is absolutely the best celebrant you could ever hope for!
If you’re in the market for a passionate, fun and kind celebrant who will bend over backwards to give you the ceremony you’ve been dreaming of, look no further!
— Sam and Alisha
We wish we could get married again (to each other - of course!) just so we can experience a Mel ceremony again.
— Teneile and Tim
So many of our guests said it was the best ceremony they have been to.
If you’re considering Weddings with a Twist - DO IT! You won’t regret it.
— Roxy and Jack
Our ceremony was perfect!
Mel went above and beyond to make the day fun and professional.
By the time the wedding comes, Mel feels like your friend, not just your celebrant.
It will only take one meeting (after 2 minutes you will know) that you have found your celebrant.
— Chris and Tristan
