“Just wanted to send a quick mail to say thank you very much for the beautiful ceremony in Rathsallagh. Although Richard and I both knew what was in the script, we were surprised at how fresh and new it all seemed on the day itself.

You exuded a sense of calmness, helping us (or me anyhow!) to control the nerves - I was surprised at how emotional and overwhelming it all felt! The ceremony was really beautiful, and has been commented on as such by so many of our guests. We really enjoyed it."

“Now that the dust has settled and we're a few weeks out looking back on the wedding, we just wanted to reach out again and say thank you so much from us both for such a beautiful ceremony. The words, the way you presented it, your help before the day, it just made the whole thing so special. Our family and friends loved it and we're both delighted the way it turned out.”

“Heartfelt thanks for all you did once more. You spent so much time and care preparing us and supporting us, including during a global pandemic! All of our friends and family commented on how wonderful you were, noting especially how inclusive you made the entire ceremony. It was a total pleasure and we deeply appreciate all you did. “

“We are just back from honeymoon and had a lovely time. Just wanted to drop you a note to say a HUGE THANK YOU for all your help with the wedding. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and we had so many people (including people who we thought had hearts of stone!) telling us how moving and personal it was. Thank you so much!”

“Your advice, support and assistance was invaluable in helping us to jointly develop a very personal service in collaboration with you. I couldn't be happier with the way the ceremony went. Actually, I couldn't be happier with the way the whole day went! Not only did I marry the woman I love but I did it in a very personal public service that will be etched in my memory to the day I die (which hopefully will be a long way off). To a person, our guests praised how personally engaged you were in the ceremony. You managed to make everyone feel that they were part of a very special occasion. Thank you for all you did for us and our guests. It was a pleasure and a privilege working with you to celebrate our wedding.”

“I just wanted to send a quick email on behalf of myself and Liam to thank you so much for everything last Friday.

The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and everyone was commenting on how it felt really special to mention things like the marriage referendum. It was an emotional day for all.

We are so grateful for your time and effort on our ceremony and it is surly a piece of the day we'll never forget. “

“It’s a month since our wedding and we’ve just got our wedding videos so it prompted us to get in touch… Both myself and Aoife wanted to say a massive thank you for being there as our celebrant for our wedding. One of the big talking points from the day was how amazing the ceremony was. It was the first humanist ceremony a lot of our guests had been to, and they were blown away by how personal it was and they all absolutely loved it.

Myself and Aoife are so grateful for all the thought and effort you put in to it for us. It felt very personal to us and it was a big part of the reason the day was as good as it was!

It was great to have met you and thank you so much again for everything!”

“I just wanted to send you a message saying a massive thank you for Monday. You really were amazing. For many of our friends and family there it was their first humanist ceremony, including Eimear’s family, and they are converted. Everyone commented on how personal and intimate it was and how it perfectly reflected the both of us. Some friends said they would love to have an audio book of you to help them relax, so I would take that as a massive hit!!

From Eims and myself, you made us feel completely at ease and really made our ceremony and marriage more perfect than we could have imagined. We really had the most incredible day and we can’t stop talking about it. So really, thank you so so much. “

“We are just back from our honeymoon and wanted to reach out to you to pass on our most sincere thanks and appreciation. Your input as guide and curator of our wedding ceremony helped make the vision of our wedding come through. You really helped to make James and I feel special and enabled our personalities to shine through the ceremony.

Even throughout the remainder of the day, each and every guest commented on how taken they were with you and how you led the ceremony. We cannot thank you enough. Wishing you all the best in the future.”

“Just a note to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the truly beautiful ceremony you officiated for us in the Thomas Prior, and for all the care and attention your poured into the prep work.

Even though we had read the script so many times before, we were surprised at how new it felt, and how heartfelt it was. So many people commented on what a touching ceremony it was, and several have said they’re now considering a humanist ceremony for their own weddings.

You brought warmth and kindness to the ceremony, and made us feel at ease, and celebrated. The day was that much more special thanks to you, and we can’t thank you enough.”

“Darren and I just wanted to thank you so much for our ceremony on Monday. It was so beautiful and our guests couldn't speak highly enough of it. It was relaxed, personal and really conveyed us as a couple and we can't thank you enough for that. We hope you enjoyed your time with us as well. You were a pleasure to work with.”

“SHONA is fantastic. Our Humanist ceremony was an unforgettable experience led by Shona, we lit candles, tied the knot which is an ancient tradition and said our vows. Shona is so organised and helped us with every step of our ceremony, she made sure our script was personal to us including readings, poems and songs that meant something to us both. Shona has such a warm and energetic personality and thanks to her delivery our ceremony was very relaxed and all our guests had a good laugh. We received so much feedback on how the ceremony was such a meaningful ceremony and so personal to us. I would recommend Shona to any couple looking for a personal non religious ceremony.

Shona is such a gorgeous and amazingly talented person to work with. Thank you so much Shona.”

“Thank you so much for making our day so special on Friday.

The huge effort that you put into our ceremony at such short notice was incredible and we’ll forever be grateful for it!

Everyone loved the ceremony and how it differed to the typical ceremonies they would have been to before. It was so much more personal and really suited our personalities ☺️

We’re so happy that we were lucky enough to cross paths. Thank so much again!”
