Here are some comments about Peter's ceremonies

Hi Peter,
Thank you so much for the copy of our wedding poem. We received it in the mail it is beautiful and something we will treasure as a memory of our special day. In reflecting on the day we could not have asked for anything else. it was such a lovely day and everyone we talked to agreed. You did a wonderful job with the ceremony and it reflected everything Matt and I stand for. It was so special. We hope you enjoyed your selves. Please offer our thanks to Tricia also for helping us with the music. It all came together just perfectly.

Regards,
Tracey and Matt Bosanko

Dear Peter,
Thankyou for the photo and thanks also for helping us make our wedding day so special. Our family and friends, including us, thought that you where absolutely fantastic. We hope you and Tricia have a wonderful Christmas with all your family. Take care and have a happy New Year helping make many other couples just as happy as we are.

Love,
Roz and Ben Lovell

Dear Peter,
Mat and I would just like to say a huge ‘thank-you’ for making our wedding ceremony so special and memorable. You helped us to create a ceremony that was uniquely ours, which reflected our personalities and expressed the way that we feel about each other & our families & friends.
We can’t thank you enough – your humble approach and the way you made us feel as though we were special and that our ceremony was as important to you as it was to us, really made our day that much more perfect. We had so many comments as to how great a job you did & I would have absolutely no qualms recommending you to anyone looking for the perfect celebrant!
From the bottom of our hearts – thank you.

Yours sincerely,
Jess & Mat McCullagh

I would really like to thank you so very much for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. You were exactly what we had hoped, and more and are so pleased you married us. Your poem about Scott and I was fantastic, and I can tell you that everybody has commented on how beautiful it was and how you were able to write it without knowing us and be spot on. Our friends and family still talk about the ceremony and poem - especially my mum who shed a few tears whilst you read it (and still does when we talk about it!).
Thank you for giving us a memory that we will cherish forever.

Take care,
Scott and Holly Auchter

Hi Peter,
Just wanted to say thank you so very much for being our celebrant on Saturday, and for everything that you did for us in the lead up to the big day. Being our first time, we were both very nervous and organising the day seemed increasingly daunting.
Your professionalism, yet easy going nature, made the day so very special for the both of us.
All of our guests have raved about how good 'the celebrant' was, and we will certainly be passing on your details to those that are looking for a celebrant. (The poem was a big hit!)
Pls also pass on our thanks to Trish, for her invaluable assistance as well.
Hope everything goes smoothly with the move to your new house, and also with your future celebrant work.

Regards,
Dave & Jill

Our wedding, held recently in a forest in New Zealand, was far from traditional - we wanted it to reflect our personalities and be fun for everyone involved as well as being a meaningful expression of our commitment and love. Peter was very accommodating and able to create a beautiful ceremony that was in keeping with our individual style, and his sense of humour really shone through. He wrote a wonderfully personal (and hilarious!) poem about us, as well as saying some wise words on the more serious aspects of marriage. He kept the crowd entertained and ran the ceremony very smoothly - we were so impressed and would highly recommend him as a celebrant to anyone!

This is just a quick email to thank you for the lovely and moving ceremony that you performed for us. The poem that you wrote in relation to the formation of our relationship and why we feel the way we feel was wonderful and very well received by all who attended. The binder that you gave us at the conclusion of the ceremony has given us a keepsake that will be treasured by us both for the remainder of our lives.
We are so grateful that it was you that we contacted to perform the ceremony for us, as we firmly believe that no one would have created the atmosphere or put such a personal touch to the ceremony as you did. Words cannot thank you enough for everything, we hope to cross paths with you again in the near future.
Thank you for celebrating our love and the union of our love with us.
We have just received the photo and poem photo. Thank you very much for that. It is beautiful.
Again we cannot thank you enough for the outstanding and personalised effort that you put in on our wedding day. You are a wonderful person.

Take Care,
James and Chantel Leahy

The day was truly magical and much more than either of us had expected or hoped for. Thank you for all your time and performance of the ceremony. We have had many comments about how wonderful it was.
I received the beautiful poem and picture you had given to my mum to bring over to New York. Michael and I were both very touched and it is something we will keep forever.

Tammy and Michael

More than half a dozen of our guests commented on the excellent job you did, and were blown away when I told them ‘no, I did not write the poem, Peter did!’ They ALL commented that you have gone above and beyond what an ordinary celebrant does. With that I agree and for that I thank you. You made our day so much more special with the ceremony you put together for us.
From my heart – thank you Peter. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Meg and Steve

Hi Peter,
We just want to say a big thank you for making our wedding day such a special one.
We are both so happy, the day ran very smoothly all thanks to you.
Your understanding and help will always be remembered.
We received so many compliments on what a wonderful service it was, everyone loved the beautiful words you wrote for us.
We can not thank you enough Peter.

Regards,
Michael and Rebecca Walker

We just wanted to thank you again for contributing to our very special day. We had a fantastic time and thought the ceremony was beautiful. We will read your poem in days to come and will always hold fond memories. All the best for 2009!

Belinda and Sam Sippe

Brett and I wanted to thank you for being an amazing celebrant at our wedding. You really set the tone for the ceremony as we wanted it to be relaxed and fun, and we couldn't have asked for a better ceremony. The poem was a bit hit! and it was great to have something a bit different in the ceremony than the usual readings. Thanks again!! and thanks Trish for playing the music! :-)

Kind regards,
Brett and Shylie

We were truly blessed and could not have asked for anything more on our wedding day!
We approached Peter to be our wedding celebrant knowing that through his life experience and skill in the areas of public speaking, we had chosen the right person. We were most impressed with what Peter had to offer us through a meaningful and personal wedding ceremony. Peter assisted us to plan a ceremony that included everything which was special to us. His commitment and genuine manner made the preparation process run smoothly. Peter successfully managed to capture the essence of our journey together in a beautiful poem, which was read at our ceremony.
Many of our guests commented on our lovely wedding ceremony.
It was exactly what we wanted – full of special memories that we will cherish for many years to come.
We thank you.

Thank you very much for your efforts on Sunday.
The guests response to your poem was really great and my relatives thought that you conducted the ceremony very personally.

Chien and Karen

Lindsay and I would like to thank you for the beautiful ceremony you presented at out wedding on July 11, 2009 at Boulevard Gardens. We were very impressed with the delivery of your ceremony and will definitely recommend you to our friends and family. You also made sure that both Lindsay and I felt very comfortable prior to the ceremony, which was greatly appreciated.
I have attached a few photographs below of the ceremony that I thought you may like to look at.
Again our greatest thanks for the emotive and personal delivery of our marriage ceremony.

Kindest regards,
Courtney and Lindsay Stohr
