Some wonderful words from our couples and families...
Hi Michelle,
 Linda and I would like to sincerely thank you, Vicki, Di and Veronique for making our Wedding in Sydney a truly memorable and stress free day. Special thanks also to Reverend Brian Stewart who couldn't have made us feel more at ease. We would have no hesitation in recommending you and your team to anyone considering getting married in Australia - it was such a wonderful experience.
Wishing you all the best for the future.

Dear Michelle
 Craig and I would just like to thank you so much for organising our Wedding at Balmoral Beach last month. We had a fantastic day and everything went to plan, even the unpredictable weather! Also a special thank you to Vicki who was so helpful. We have been looking through the photos and DVD and are really pleased with how they all came out. Although it was just a small event, all our guests thought it was a fantastic private ceremony, which is just how we wanted it to be.
Thanks again, Alicia & Craig

Dear Michelle,
Back in good (c)old Dublin and happily married and I would like to take some time to express our heartfelt thanks to you and your team at Australian Dream Weddings!
 Our wedding on the 1st February 2008 in Sydney was certainly organised the way we wanted it: no hassle, stress or pressure - only pure excitement, happiness and joy! Please send our personal regards to Vicki, Veronique and of course to Dianne, Pat and Frances who made the photo shoot, recording the video and driving through Sydney most enjoyable and funny! The video is excellent (far better than we expected) and the photos are beautiful. Special thanks to Reverend Brian Stewart for his very personalised and touching ceremony!
Michelle, thanks again for your help and support and all the best for your and your team in the future.
Kind regards,

Dear Michelle
 I thought I would drop you a line to Thank You to you and the rest of your team, for such a wonderful day. Dianne captured us as relaxed as we felt and the photographs were just perfect. Our families did not know we were getting married so we surprised them on our return with a framed picture. The chauffeur, celebrant Michele, Dianne the photographer and Vicki the coordinator, were very professional but also made us feel very at ease.
Thank you once again, I would certainly recommend you to anyone who wanted a hassle free wedding.

Hi Michelle,
 Just a brief note to say THANK YOU! We have received all pics and videos and love them. You really made our day very special. Please extend our thanks to Vicky, Di, Patrick, Pastor Brian (cool guy), Barry and the makeup lady, Veronique. We felt very, very special and had tons of fun...... in fact we went back to the "Reception Hall" on our Opera House tour and had a blast reliving the moment there. We also saw Jose Carreras last night..... what an experience. Sydney really is an awesome city! Please feel free to use us as a reference any time.
Bye now and Happy New Year!

Hi Michelle,
 We are just about to head out of Ayers Rock- so a very quick email. Firstly many many thanks for arranging wedding. Chris and I had a brilliant time - even though both of us were quite scared during the run up!
The gang were excellent- Pat, Di, Vicki and Dianne. They all helped make it that little bit easier for us!
Once again many many thanks for helping us sort it out.

Hi Michelle
We just wanted to say how much we really loved the wedding, it was so well organised and turned out better than we could ever have expected. Everything was absolutely perfect - the limo, the flowers and the delicious chocolate cake (which we ate for dessert for the next few nights..lol). The beach was such a lovely location (we loved froggy up on the rocks!) and I am glad the weather held up ok for us.
 Please pass on a huge thank you to everyone else involved; Suzie was fantastic for my hair and make up, she did an awesome job, Sue is a great photographer, we were very impressed with the quality of the photos and so are our family and friends, we also were pleased with Simon's video. Oh and can you thank Jim also, and the limo driver of which I didn't get his name but he was cool too!
Once again, thank you so much for making our day very special and one we will always remember!
I wish you and your family a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Best wishes!

Dear Michelle,
I am writing to thank you for our wonderful Gold Coast wedding on the 26th October 2007.
 Simon and I would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation for all of your assistance in making our special day absolutely unforgettable. Suzi, my makeup artist was great fun and enthusiastic and made the morning delightful. She was friendly, professional and talented and an absolute pleasure to work with. Craig, my driver helped me get through the stress of an unpredictable storm that circled us on our way to Rainbow Bay for the ceremony with his relaxed and friendly conversations. Sue, our photographer captured moments only a true professional could that we now have to reflect upon for the rest of our lives.
 Michelle, yourself and team represent the highest of quality when it comes to choosing a wedding planner and you have all made our wedding the most wonderful day for us. The level of professionalism along with a relaxed friendly approach from all of you made it easy for us to thoroughly enjoy our day with knowing absolutely everything had been arranged. It was almost a surreal feeling knowing that a wedding can be so stressful to organise and yet not having to worry about any of it.
We would also like to say we highly recommend you to everyone considering having a dream wedding away if they want only the best to assist with their wedding arrangements. A sincere thank you for all of your help to make our day so memorable for us.
kindest regards

Vicki, the driver, the photographer and the minister were all fantastic and made us feel very at ease. A big thank you to yourself as well for keeping us both updated throughout.

Hi Michelle,
 May I take this opportunity to thank everyone at Australian Dream Weddings for all their help. All the people we have had contact with for the wedding, were absolutely fantastic, really friendly and put us all at ease. If anyone I know wants to get married abroad, I would definitely recommend Australian Dream Weddings. The Wedding was a Dream. We were chuffed to bits with the photos (I currently have a selection as my screen saver at work so I remember what a fantastic day I had), video, flowers, absolutely everything.
Thanks and Kind Regards

Hi Michelle
 Just a quick note to thank you and Vicki for organising our wedding. We had an absolute ball and our guests are still talking about how good it was. The cake was a perfect match for our colours (and tasted pretty good too!!). We didn't have to worry about a thing - before the wedding you organised everything and on the day Vicki did a fantastic job. I'm not sure about Vicki, but for us it was a stress-free hassle-free day - just as we had hoped and Brian (our minister) was also a hit with us and the guests.
All in all, it was a day we'll remember forever. Much appreciated.

Hi Michelle,
 I just wanted to send you a quick email to say a HUGE thankyou for arranging our wedding in the Botanical Gardens, Sydney on 5th January. The day was perfect, everything we had hoped it would be and more! The hair and make up ladies were brilliant, and I was really pleased with how they made me look. The service was very relaxed and informal, exactly as we wanted it, and the celebrant was great. And we had perfect weather, so really, we couldn't have asked for anything more!
Thanks once again for making our day so special, and one we will always remember.
Best wishes

Hi Michelle,
 We really can't speak highly enough of Australia Dream Weddings. When we decided to travel to Australia to get married we were slightly concerned about organising it so far away and thought that it may be very complicated indeed. It turned out to be the complete opposite. Right from the start you were extremely helpful and friendly and put all our worries to rest. You organised everything perfectly and always kept us informed of every step.
We appreciate that when we contacted you by e-mail we always had a reply the next day. Everything we asked for was put in place and the wedding day itself was everything we had hoped it would be. The setting and venue were incredible and we have some wonderful photos from your photographer. Everyone we dealt with from the early stages through to the ceremony itself were always really friendly and very professional. I can't recommend you highly enough.

Hi Michelle,
 We would just like to thank you for the fantastic wedding you arranged for us. It was everything we wanted it to be. Simple and no stress that involved the kids. Sue, the photographer was great. The photos were wonderful, she did a brilliant job, as did Cliff with the video. The flowers matched perfectly and the extra thought of lemonade for the kids to toast with was appreciated and something we hadn't of thought of.
What you do is a fantastic service and we would recommend this to anyone wanted a well organised stress free wedding.
Thank you all again,

Hello Michelle,
 At last we have time to sit down since we have been home to say a HUGE THANK YOU for a fantastic wedding. From our first communication everything organized by yourself and team has been first class! I can honestly say I felt like a princess after I had been 'made up' by your fantastic make up and hairdresser artist, it was definitely well worth paying for and to receive the photos and video the day after the wedding was fabulous although we had to wait until we got home to watch the video. When we watched it we both cried!!! The music put on was so appropriate and the whole day a fantastic one.
Thank you again and please thank every one in your team for all their help!!
Kind regards

 I want to say that we enjoyed a lot our "downunder" wedding. It was exactly what we were looking for. You are great! We received our wedding photos so fast and they are so beautiful. As promised I have attached some photos. Please feel free to use them on your website and as testimonials.

 Dearest Michelle,
I just wanted to thank you dearly for making our wedding a day that we will never forget. Everything was perfect. The people I met from your company were extremely friendly and helpful.
What amazed me was that all I did was sit back and relax. If I had to organise the wedding myself, I would have been a mess by the wedding day and feel I would not have enjoyed the day at all.
 We cannot express enough how much we are grateful to you and everyone at Australian Dream Weddings. I have attached photos of us on our special day to show you our great big smiles.
Thank you once again,

Veronique, the hairdresser and Dianne, the photographer were brilliant and the day wouldn't have gone as well without them there.
 I wanted to let you know, before we fly off to Brisbane, what a wonderful day we had and that everything was better than I could ever have anticipated. Please tell Vicki and Dianne and Veronique a BIG THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for making our day so special.

Dear Michelle,
Where do we begin!?!
Since our email enquiry back in May 2005 and countless emails thereafter....You have been an inspiration to us. Your endless patience and help are a credit to you and all who work with you.
 We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special. I know we were a pain with all of our questions, but hell....what a day!! What memories. We were so overwhelmed to finally meet you and deeply honoured that you were able to attend our wedding. The only sadness is that we no longer communicate via email. We feel we have lost a friend. But we will make sure to keep in touch and will most definately recommend your services. If you ever need a place to stay in England, give us a bell!
Have a wicked Christmas with your family and yes, it's very cold here - big woolie jumpers, thick scarves - we're dead jealous of your weather.
Lots of love, Chrissy and Bryan
Christine O'Flaherty and Bryan Clarke, Essex, England 13th October 2005, Gold Coast Beach
Hi Michelle,
 We got back on Saturday and are now back at work. We are still both suffering from the jetlag and wished we were back in Australia. Australia is a lovely country and we would love to live there.
 We have showed everyone our photos and they think they are lovely. John did a great job. My hair and makeup on the day was even better than the trials I got back home in Britain. The hair and makeup artist was excellent and did my hair and put on my tiara just the way I wanted it.
 Thank you again for the excellent photos, plus the DVD's are excellent as well. Everyone thought they were lovely and I can't remember how many times I've watched the DVD.
I’ve attached photos of the day from our guests digital cameras which you are welcome to use on your website.
Thank you again.

Hi Michelle,
 Shelley here, I just wanted to thank you so much for our lovely wedding. It was special in every way. Alera was wonderful and so accommodating, the wedding was so perfect. All my friends who have seen the photos on our return have said they are so good, which they are! I will certainly be recommending your company to anyone I know who considers marrying in Australia.
Thank you so much!
Love Shelley and John

Hi Michelle,
 Regarding our Wedding 19th August 2005 at the Sydney Opera House.
Firstly can we say a big thank you for a perfect wedding even if we were suffering a bit from nerves. All your people were so professional and tried to make us feel at ease. The photos and video were great and have been enjoyed by both families since we returned home. I wasn't sure if you had a photo of us but you are welcome to use the attached on your web site if you want.
With thanks,

Dear Michelle
 First of all I would like to congratulate you and your team for organising our wedding. We had a fantastic day and everything thing was perfect.
Alera was fantastic. She made sure every single detail was attended to and would go out of her way for everything. You have a real gem there.
I was very happy with the way Silvia did my hair and make up. What I asked for is what I got. Nicola was great - she made us feel very at ease during the photography session - I don't know how models can pose for photos as a full time job - very exhausting.
Thanks again. Rosa Rosa Garcia & Joseph Muscat, Thornbury, Victoria, Australia

Hi Michelle,
 Now we are back in Germany and we really had a very special and wonderful time. The marriage was really wonderful and your team in Cairns/Port Douglas was really great. Everything worked perfect that special day and the weather was really good too (after rain in the morning).
Thank you very much again to you and your team.
Kindest regards from Germany,

Hi Michelle,
 We spoke with Mark and Lisa about two hours after the wedding, they were so thrilled with the way everything went. They told us you had read the message to them, which made it a little bit special seeing how her mum and dad could not be with them on the day nor could they find any way of sending a message themselves. So we are all very grateful for the way you have helped us, and as I said in my earliest email, you really do make weddings into "Dream Weddings" we will never forget the way you helped us and if I can be of any help to you please feel free to get in touch again.
My very kindest regards

We are so sorry in the delay with our thanks, but we have just got back from Thailand and are trying to come down to earth a little!
We can not thank you, Natasha and all at Australian Dream Weddings enough. We had such a wonderful day - the best in our lives. Our families and guests have done nothing but praise what a absolutely fantastic day they spent - the best ever.
 Natasha was out of this world, Brian gave a beautiful service, the photos and video superb. The drivers were much loved - they made Aunty Doreen's day! It was truly a most memorable day surpassing all our dreams. We couldn't recommend you enough should anybody else which to marry in Australia.
Many thanks again,

 Well it's back to work and back to reality for myself and Kev!
I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you and your company for making our wedding day so great. It was wonderful that all we had to do was show up!
The photos turned out really, really well. Sue is an amazing photographer, we hardly recognised ourselves!
So a big thank you again to all involved and we hope to get back down under again soon!
Kind Regards Mandy & Kev

Dear Michelle,
 Just a note to say a big thank you for making Rachel and Steven's Wedding Day one to remember. The organisation of the whole day was excellent.
A special thanks must go to your coordinator, Natasha who was superb. She was able to answer our queries and re-assure and made us have a sense of calm and ease with the whole event.
Thank you once again. Steve Amos (Father of the Bride)

Hi Michelle,
As we've just about recovered from our jet-lag, Darren and I would like to say a few thank-you's to you and your colleagues for making our wedding absolutely fantastic!
 First of all we'd like you to pass on our huge thanks to Sonja for making the day run so smoothly, and for being prepared for every problem before it even happened! We think everyone should have a Sonja to organise their
wedding day (and probably their life too )!
We'd also like to thank Pastor Peter for making us both feel so comfortable and relaxed on a potentially rather stressful day! The service was exactly what we wanted and everyone commented on how lovely and friendly Peter was. Peter even let our 3-year old nephew ring the bell at St. Mary's - which made his day!
The other wonderful people at Port Douglas also need many thanks; my make-up and hair dressing lady (Silvia, I think) who performed wonders with my hair, and made me look totally glamorous, and of course the photographer who took so many beautiful pictures and captured the day that we remember - even with the cameras of some of our guests!
 Last, but by no means least, we have to thank you and all at Australian Dream Weddings for organising the best, most relaxed and well planned wedding we could ever have hoped for! Special mentions must go to the gorgeous orchids and the excellent cake - especially the bride and groom decoration which got lots of laughs!
So, thank you very much for a truly memorable day, and we will be recommending you to all our un-married friends!
Best Regards

Hi Michelle,
 Just a quick line to say a big thankyou to the Australian Dream Weddings team! We thoroughly enjoyed our "stress free" wedding on 19th February 2004 and wanted to let you know how appreciative we were of you/your Companies efforts in making it such a special day for ourselves and our guests. Please pass on our special thanks to Natasha for co-ordinating the day, our driver Tibby, who was a great guy, and Brian the Minister for making the service feel so special and personal. Obviously, our thanks also go to Dianne (photographer) and a big thanks to Belinda, the Harpist whos' music transformed the day.

Michelle,
 Just a quick message to say thanks very much for all the effort that you and your team put in for our wedding in the Botanical Gardens. As you probably realised we were slightly apprehensive about arranging our wedding over the internet. We obviously had nothing to worry about.....!!! Natasha was great and very helpful. Alan was a great bloke who made us both feel very special and Di was very easy going and relaxed and made us feel the same.
All in all it was a great day that we will remember for the rest of our lives. The room that was provided at the restaurant was unbelievable. It was better than we could have ever hoped for and the food was fantastic. We were made to feel very special.
Thanks again,

Dear Michelle,
 We received our Fairytale Wedding Storybook today via Federal Express and we are Sooooooooooo pleased with the photos and the Storybook! We're VERY impressed with the quality and the images that were captured. It so happens the delay in customs meant our album arrived on our two month anniversary today, which makes the day even more special!
We cannot say enough what an extraordinary day and event you and your team made happen. Our wedding exceeded our expectations and the Storybook only adds proof that you deliver more than one can even imagine! There aren't enough wonderful things we could say about Australian Dream Weddings!
Thank you again,

Hi Michelle,
Both Sally and myself would like to thank you very much for a Wonderful Wedding!
We had a great time and everything actually went beyond our expectations.
 Thank you so much for making it all so easy for us so as all we had to worry about was having a good time! Your coordinator, Sonya was magnificent and her help was invaluable in making everything stress free and smooth. The limo driver was great - I think she did far more that she was paid to do as she halped Sally quite a bit! I am not sure what we were expecting with the photo album and video shoot but both went far beyond our expectations and absolutely blew us away.
Overall we will not hesitate to recommend you to everyone we know and would like to thank you for making our day so wonderful. Please pass this on to all the people that contributed and thank them from us.
Thank you to all concerned,

Hi Michelle,
We just wanted to send you a note to thank you for all your wonderful work. Our wedding was so perfect and we appreciate all the planning and coordination!!
 Please tell Natasha how much I appreciated her help! I loved the way she did my hair!! Also the Marriage Celebrant was terrific! We were very pleased with the pictures but we were especially delighted with the video! It was so beautifully done, so professional and so romantic! It brought tears to our eyes; it highly exceeded our expectations!!! I would really like to send a personal note to the videographer. Could you give me his name address and when you get a chance.
Thanks again for everything!! If given the opportunity, we would highly
recommend your company!

Hi Michelle,
Andy and I got married on March 14, 2003 in the Botanical Gardens.
I want to take this time to tell you what a wonderful job your company did for our wedding. Everything turned out perfect !!! We were extremely impressed with the location, the creativity of both the photographer and the videographer. Our celebrant was great too. He made us feel very comfortable and even made a few jokes during the ceremony, which was a nice touch. It helped relax the bride and groom. And I can't forget about Natasha. She was wonderful !!! She was so sweet and so well organized. It was a pleasure to work with her. She made sure everything went according to plan. I also couldn't believe how quickly we had our video, photos, and best of all the negatives.
 I admit, I was a little skeptical planning my wedding over the Internet but we had such a wonderful experience. I will recommend Australian Dream Weddings to anyone. And Michelle, thank you for always answering my questions and accommodating all of my requests. Andrew and I had a perfect wedding thanks to you and your staff. We can't wait for our anniversary so we can come back and visit beautiful Sydney again.
Thanks again,

Well, we are back in the UK after our marriage at the Rainforest Chapel in Cairns.
 I just wanted to thank you very much for all the help and patience you gave us during the planning of our wedding. When choosing off the internet is is difficult to know exactly what you will be getting, but the Rainforest Chapel was absolutely beautiful - better than we could have imagined and the flowers were gorgeous.
Everything went off without a hitch and the day was everything we had ever dreamed of.
Thanks again,

Dear Michelle,
Yvonne and myself wish to thank yourself and your team for making our Silver wedding an occassion that we shall never forget. The photographs were outstanding and even the ones taken with our own camera have turned out great!
 We both enjoyed our cocktails at the Hyatt hotel and the service and food at Doyles restaurant were superb. To finish off the day we had drinks in the lounge of our hotel, where the harpist who was playing discovered it was our Silver wedding and played some music especially for us - she even let us try out her harp (very unsuccessfully!)
In our present times it is sad that excellent service is becoming increasingly rare and mediocrity is the norm. However your professionalism and that of Veronique (hair and makeup), Dianne (the photographer) and Reverend Cole was exemplary and could you please pass on our best wishes to them.
This has been the holiday of a lifetime for both of us, but with your help on the 9th, it made the experience even better and for that, we thank you.
Yours Sincerely, Yvonne and Eric.

Dear Michelle,
I have been meaning to contact you for sometime now to say thank you very much for organising our wedding on 1 July 2002 but things have been so hectic since we got back!
 We would like to say a special thanks to Summer (your coordinator), and Reverend Leon for making us feel at ease on the day and making our day so special. We would also be grateful if you could thank the photographer, Sue who was absolutely fantastic (I'm so glad that I listended to your advice and booked professional photography). Our families loved the photos!
If I hear of anyone else wanting to get married in Australia I won't hesitate to recommend that they contact you.
Once again, thanks very much.

Hello Michelle,
We wanted to contact you to thank you for our big day. It truly was a memorable occassion and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Mary has been recommending you to all the unmarried couples we know - and even some married ones to renew their vows....she will do anything for another holiday in Aus!!
Seriously though, you really made our day. It was stress free and you arranged every last detail without fuss. Please send our thanks and regards to Dianne (photographer), Pat (video) and Veronique (hair and makeup). The photos are perfect - we hope the camera still works! Lots of our friends have commented on how good and original the photos are. Thanks to Pat for the video - how did he manage to make the two of us look so interesting?! We didn't know what he was going to do and we were really pleased with the result. The video captures everything. It is great for us to remember the day and our families now understand why we wanted to run off to Sydney!! Even Mary's Mum has stopped asking us why we didn't want a priest to marry us in a church in Birmingham! And Pat, the music is fab...
So thanks again and if you are ever in England let us know. It would be great to see you and buy you a large pint!
Cheers,

 Thank you for organising everything so beautifully for us - we had a great time. The ship was wonderful and having the wedding ceremony on board was beyond our expectations.

 Dave and I would like to thank you so very much for planning our beautiful wedding at the Rainforest Chapel in Cairns. Everything turned out perfect and the setting was just beautiful. We were so pleased with everyone involved in our big day and amazed at their genuine enthusiasm for making everything perfect for us. I couldn't have asked for a better group of people.
The hair and makeup artist was very sweet and did a wonderful job, our driver was very nice and even showed us some points of interest along the way, the photogrpaher was great and took some beautiful pictures, the videographer made an absolutely amazing video and, of course, Wayne the Celebrant and Sonja the coordinator were two of the nicest people we've ever met!
We'll never be able to thank you and everyone involved enough for making the most important day of our lives absoutley perfect! I hope that you will forward our thanks to everyone involved.

Hello Michelle and to All at Australian Dream Weddings!
 So much has happened since Reuben and I said our vows in the beautiful manor gardens in Sydney. We have so much fun remembering that special day.
Reuben and I have been discussing plans for our 1st year anniversary, and have decided to stay at Reverend Graham's Bed & Breakfast!
I love Australia and wish the people here in the States could learn to enjoy life as you do.
As always, thank you so very much for your generosity, your hard work and most of all, your time. We will never forget our wedding day and wouldn't change a single thing if we had the chance to do it all over again. Everything was perfect.
Here's wishing you and your family the most memorable holiday season and happiest New Year! May each day bring you more joy than the last.
Truly,
April and Reuben

Dear Michelle,
 This is just a quick note to thank you for making our wedding day so wonderful. It ran so smoothly and for us, was practically stress-free. You really took care of us and our needs and we have no doubt as to why so many couples put their most special occasion in your hands. We have already recommended you to friends in England, and we will continue to do so.
Thank you again,
Kindest Regards,

 We can't thank you guys enough for seeing that our wedding was perfect. We truly feel indebted and are still amazed at how wired you had everything! It was nothing short of amazing, and we want you to know how much we appreciated your patience and selflessness.
Thank you guys so much! Please stay in touch, and if you're heading into LA at any point in the future, we sincerely hope you will allow us to be your hosts...
All Our Best,

Dear Michelle,
 I cannot thank you enough for the fabulous wedding you arranged for my daughter, now Mrs. Jennifer Holmes (of Beverly Hills, California).
In all our travels around the world we have not seen a more beautiful place for a wedding than Sydney. It truly was a dream. The weather was perfect. The scenery was perfect. The Cadillacs were more than perfect: they were out of this world.
What was most extraordinary, however, were the people at Australian Dream Weddings and the Star City Casino hotel. All of you are astonishingly generous, honest, understanding and accommodating.
We are so grateful.
We would recommend Australian Dream Weddings and Star City to anyone.
Sincerely,
Jerome Bump, Austin, Texas, USA

Dear Michelle,
 I'm back in the US, good to be home. We are married 1 year now. The event took place, thanks to your great help, on 11 Oct 99 at the Garden next to the Opera House.
Just a brief THANK YOU for all you did for us. Everyone that has seen the tape has said that they would like to visit your country and they also say how nice it all looks.
We had a wonderful time and will re visit some time in the future. Please expect our email and phone call when we decide when.
Again, thanks for all your assistance. There is just no way we could have done it all ourselves.
Don and Michele Adams, New Jersey, USA 11th October 1999, Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney
Dear Michelle,
A true Aussie Dream Wedding - what else can we say!
We would like to thank you all so very much for not only the most wonderful day of our lives but a truly memorable and fantastic holiday. From the day we met with you, we felt totally at ease and in very capable hands. Everything that you organised for us was perfect down to the very last detail.
The "Cadillacs" - were out of this world - we felt like Hollywood movie stars!! Grant who drove "Norma Jean" was such a character - I haven't known any other bride singing and dancing to rock "n" roll on the way to her wedding!! The "Harleys" were a hit - our guests thought the traffic must have been heavy in Sydney, and I had to have a police escort to get me to the wedding on time.
The Historic Manor and the gardens were absolutely beautiful, the staff were so attentive and the food and drink delicious.
The photographs and video are amazing. We must have shown the video a hundred times and it still brings a tear to our eyes!
All in all it was a very special time, not only for ourselves but our family and friends, who all agreed it was "The Best Wedding" they had ever been to!
All our thanks to you and your "team" for all the help and assistance which you gave to us, and even made us feel nothing was too much to ask.
Best Wishes,
Karen & Philip Thornton-Brown, Newcastle, England 9th October 1998, Historic Manor, Sydney
Michelle,
 We wanted to thank you for all your assistance with our wedding!
Kicking off the new Millennium in Australia and a wedding on January 2nd to follow the festivities seemed most appropriate. We had a blast and you were wonderful with handling all of the details. The cars were a hit with our family and friends! Please extend my appreciation to the florist for the perfect bouquet.
Again, a job well done. It proves you can plan a wedding over the internet and your organization was the best to work with!
Cheers,
Elizabeth and Kel Jones, Colorado, USA
