SANDRA, ANTHONY & CALLUM (1 September 2007)
"We just wanted to let you know how thrilled we were with the Christening you performed for Callum on Saturday 1st September.
We loved every part of it, especially how you included the Grandparents as well as all the other guests.
Everyone was talking about it afterwards and saying how lovely it was, and that they had never attended such a beautiful service before.
We were extremely proud of Callum and couldn't have asked for a better or more professional celebrant for the occasion.
Thanks again for everything. It could have all gone horribly wrong with the chapel, but you sorted it all out for us and made sure it all went smoothly.
Thanks.
Sandra & Anthony."

MELISSA, GLENN, JAYDA & SUMMER (22 April 2007)
"Thank you so much for the beautiful Christening ceremony you performed for the two most important and special people in our lives, our daughters, Jayda and Summer.
It was a big decision for us to get our girls Christened as we have differing opinions on religion, however the non-denominational ceremony suited both of us, as we are happy for our children to make their own decision about religion when they are adults.
Having you marry us four years earlier made this Christening even more special for us as a family, and thankyou very much.
Melissa & Glenn."

BELINDA, JASON, MIKAELA, HARRISON & TYLER (21 Jan 2007)
"Just a quick email to thank you for another beautiful Naming Day that you recently conducted for our 4 month old son Tyler Jay at Nepean River on Sunday 21st January 2007.
We were again extremely pleased at the professional, personal and very loving ceremony.
Jason and I have always been impressed with your Naming Day ceremonies, and that is why you have conducted all three of our children's ceremonies. Mikaela Ann's in 2002 and Harrison James' in 2004.
Like I mentioned to you at Tyler's Naming Day, "we should start to invite you to functions as you have now been a part of our lives and that of our family and friends for the past five years".
Thank you again, for providing us with beautiful memories of our children's ceremonies.
Kindest regards, Belinda, Jason, Mikaela, Harrison and Tyler."

ALEAH'S NANNA (7 May 2006)
"I would like to express my delight in the Naming Ceremony you performed for my beautiful Grand Daughter Aleah Rose.
I have been raised a Catholic and I must say your service was very Spiritualy Lifting.
You involved us as Grand Parents and Great Grand Parents and you made sure that all guests were very much a part of Aleah's special day.
It was not only about choosing God Parents although very important in Aleah's special day, it was also about the gift we have all been given and this is Aleah.
My family and friends all commented on how beautiful the service was and how very touching it was.
I really loved the idea of the Wish Box, and the Candle Ceremony was very personal.
I am thankful my little Treasure was blessed by a Beautiful, Positive Soul as yourself Nicole.
May Peace always be with you.
Aleah's Nanna
Pauline"

TRACY, DAVID & CARLOS (19 February 2006)
"Nicole,
What can I say but Thankyou very much for a wonderful and personalised service.
The Name day you did for our son Carlos will be remembered and cherished for the rest of our lives.
I come from a Catholic background and was glad to see how personal the ceremony was, and the way you included the Godparents, Grandparents and even Carlos's sister.
I have never seen anything done like that before and it created a special moment for each and every one involved.
You are a very Professional woman, and bring a pleasant aura with you.
Carlos is my first child, and if I ever decide to have any more children, I will definitely be in contact.
You will be my recommendation for friends and family in the future.
Each and every person commented on the ceremony so well done.
Once again Nicole Thankyou.
Regards,
Tracy"

I can't thank you enough for such a beautiful ceremony.

You are a very bubbly person which every one noticed, you put some fun into the whole day, which eased my stress considerably.
Once again, a big thank you for making my daughter's day a memorable occasion.
Thanking You. Kristy, Stuart & Madison "

CAREY, TIM & CONNOR (29 May 2005)
"Dear Nicole,
How can we thank you for the Christening service you performed for our son Connor James on the 29th of May 2005?
I have never heard so much feed back after a Christening, so many people came up to us and said what a loving and beautiful service it was.
However we can not take credit for this, you Nicole are the one who put so much dedication, love, effort and professionalism into the service.
Connor is our first child, and we still after 7 months can't believe we are so blessed to have this little boy in our lives, and through the service you had the approach and feel as if you had known our family for years, and just knew how special Connor is.
We have enclosed a photo of our special day for you. Please feel free to use it any way needed, as we will be recommending you to all of our friends, and we know our family will use you again, as they have seen you in action.
A huge thank you once again,
forever grateful,
Carey, Tim and Connor "

BELINDA, KEN, AMY & RILEY (7 November 2004)
"Hi, Nicole,
This is just a thank you for the wonderful day that you created for our family and friends
on Sunday 7th November 2004.
The service you provided was so much nicer and personal than I ever imagined and afterwards
over lunch every guest approached me and commented on how nice and lovely the service was.
Your professionalism with the service and the way you included everyone,
including the guests in with the service was great.
My 6 year old daughter felt wonderful being included in the service.
The way you did it made her feel very important.
The star of the day (Riley) behaved exceptionally well for your service,
and of course he slept very well that afternoon as well.
I have attached a couple of photos, I hope you like them,
and once again thank you so much for your personal touch that was felt by everyone on the day.
I will be recommending you to anyone who asks.
Thank you from
Belinda, Ken, Amy and Riley."

Lisa, Michael and Twins."


REBECCA, JAMES & ALEXANDRA (2 May 2004)
"Dear Nicole,
I just wanted to let you know that Alexandra's Christening was wonderful.
At the begining I was very nervous will how things would go.
However your professionalism took any fear I had away from the start.
Both James and I work fulltime so organising a special day is hard, you took all the worry out of it.
Alexandra's christening was a day filled with love and laughter.
Thankyou for creating such a day.
Cheers
Bec."


SUZANNAH, ANDREW & TAMEEKAH (9 November 2003)
"Dear Nicole,
Andrew and I would like to thank you for a wonderful Christening for our daughter Tameekah. 
It was more than what we expected, it made the day very special and personal. 
A lot of the guests commented on it being one of the best Christenings they had been to. 
This made us feel good, so we thought you probably didn't get feed back. 
My Grandparents were overwhelmed with their involvement in the service. 
It really made them feel a big part of Tameekah's day. 
This was great to see and hear from them, as they have been waiting many years to have one of their great grandchildren Christened.
Thank you once again. 
We will highly recommend you to any of our friends considering Christening their child.
Suzy."


LOUISE, DONALD, NATASHA & WILLIAM (30 August 2003)

I just wanted to thank you personally for performing the Name Giving Ceremony on our son William Alex. It was an exceptionally magical experience that touched the hearts of all our family and friends, in particular myself and Donald. You connected with, and involved everyone present, and although Natasha did not participate at the time, is now recognising your acknowledgement of her during the ceremony.
Nicole, you are a delightful lady, and a credit to your profession. You took us beyond all our expectations of the ceremony, and we thank you for being a big part in the success of our dear little man's very special day.
With greatest appreciation,
Louise, Donald, Natasha and William"

It was lovely of you to involve all our friends and family, and we had many comment about how warm and loving the ceremony was.
We have attended a number of Christenings of late where we have felt "preached at" rather than a celebration and joyous event.
I've enclosed a few photos of Abbey's ceremony and would not hesitate in recommending your service to any friends and family.
Many thanks, Catherine."

I'm sure you understand.
Troy and I just wanted to send our thanks to you for conducting our wedding ceremony on the 17th of June 2006 at Settler's Reception Centre, Mulgoa.
We cannot thank you enough for everything you did for us in the lead up to our wedding and on the day itself.
From the moment I spoke to you on the phone, to our very last meeting before the wedding - you were amazing.
Without you I don't think the ceremony could have run so smoothly.
Troy was thankful you were there to make him feel calm and relaxed, and I don't think I could have walked down the aisle without your calming words.
Every single person commented on what an amazing speaker you are.
I have enclosed a photo for you, which I would be happy for you to use, and this letter as a form of recommendation.
I'm sure we will meet again in the future, when the time comes.
Thank you once again.
Yours truly,

It was so much more than we were expecting.
Right from our first meeting you were professional, it set my mind at ease.
We loved that we could create our very own ceremony, making it not only personal, but to include our children too.
Our eldest was particularly touched not just to have us finally married, but also be an important part of the process.
All our guests commented on how beautiful the ceremony was.
Everyone was laughing and crying!
May I also compliment you on how lovely you looked on the day also, very elegant.
I have attached a couple of pics for you, but I will send more when I have the pro ones.
Thank you again Nicole, it was a pleasure.
Regards, Rebecca"

Thank you for all the time that you put into us, and for the suggestions that you made regarding our ceremony. I particularly liked the ribbon tying ceremony, and that fact that now that bow stays tied forever. It is a beautiful thought to know that the ribbon tying added some romance to the ceremony. Thank you also for making us feel more comfortable while we were being married with all your laughter that you provided. We had a great wedding and part of that greatness was due to you.
So again, thank you and take care.
Yours sincerely, Gina & Scott"

From the moment you responded to our email within minutes of us having sent it to you, we have felt at ease with you, and knew that everything would be perfect.
We never needed to ask you a question, as you had already answered it, and we always felt as if you fully supported our decision to be married.
And Ben also gave us his blessing, bless his lil furry paws!.
When we first met you and you greeted us with Ben by your side we knew we had chosen the right lady to marry us, it was a devine sign.
Our bridesmaids and groomsmen all thought you were wonderful, as did our family and friends.
Never will we regret choosing you for the most special day in our lives.
All celebrants should be like you....you are truly a beautiful lady and an angel.
And as I said on the day, in the years to come, we will most definitely call upon you for the most special occasion of naming our first child, when that day does arrive, be sure you will hear from us.
Best wishes to you, and thank you so deeply once again.
I will get some photos to you as soon as we can, as well as a copy of the ceremony for you when the video comes along.
Lots of love from Lisa and Jason" 


PAM & MEL (27 December 2003)
"Dear Nicole,
Just a short note to 'thank you' for our beautiful wedding.
I can't begin to put into words how much Mel and I appreciate the way you conducted our service.
Everyone has commented on how much fun we had, how relaxed yet professional the service was, and how lovely it was to have all the children play a part in things, and how much love was present!
I would not hesitate in recommending you to any future couple looking for a celebrant that 'CARES' and have given your name to a couple of girls at work who are planning weddings.
I am enclosing two photos for you.
Lastly, please accept my apology for the delay in getting this 'thank you' to you - life just sometimes gets in the way!
With heartfelt thanks and much appreciation.
Pam & Mel." 


SIMONE & STEVE (5 October 2003)
"Dear Nicole,
Just writing to give our belated thanks to you for the lovely wedding ceremony you performed for Steve and I on the 5th October.
We apologise for the tardiness of this thank you but things have been very hectic for us both, with the honeymoon, then our immediate return to our new business opening, and a baby on the way, (5 weeks to go) we just hadn't found the time to thank those people we wished to.
Everyone was pleased with the ceremony and it was beautiful.
We thank you for the time and effort you put into getting it all organised.
Kind regards,
Simone" 


MELISSA & GLENN (1 March 2003)
"Dear Nicole,
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for making our wedding day on 1st March 2003 one to remember fondly.
Our guests were very impressed with you, and all complimented us on a fantastic ceremony - we have you to thank for that.
We had a few problems the week leading up to the wedding, including our celebrant we had booked originally who cancelled 5 days before!
We were recommended to you, and couldn't have been happier as you made us feel at ease straight away.
We wanted our ceremony to reflect our personalities, and steer away from tradition, which you had no hesitation in accommodating us. Our ceremony was organised within a couple of days.
Again, we owe you a huge thankyou!
We have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone wanting their special day to be one looked back upon with fond memories.
Regards,
Melissa and Glenn."

Thanks again,
Rosie."

IAN & BERNADETA (On behalf of TOM) (15 March 2001)
"On behalf of Tom and the family we would like to send our sincere thank you for your kind and comforting expressions of sympathy conveyed to us in our bereavement. Nell had so many roles in her life being wife, mother, sister, aunty, grandmother, mother-in-law and friend and within her numerous roles, she left many memories that will continue to be with us for many years to come. Thank you for sharing those memories and thoughts of Nell with us. 
Your management of the service both prior and during service was moving. Nell would have been proud to see and hear the service that honoured her life. Your professional manner in caring for my Father In-Law throughout the service with compassion is commended. My relatives and friends were very impressed with the service and your conduct throughout - Thank you. Your thoughtfulness is deeply appreciated and will always be remembered. 
Yours sincerely, Ian & Bernadeta on behalf of Tom."

RUBY (8 June 1998) Letter to White Lady Funerals
"I felt the need to write to you regarding a celebrant named Nicole Celeban. Our darling mum, Myrtle passed away recently, and Nicole was asked to do the service for her.
From the moment she walked through our front door, she was the warmest, most compassionate, caring & understanding person, who put so much of her time & self into making our mum's service exactly what we wanted, & what our mum would have wished for.
She comforted us, and nothing was too much trouble for her. She has so many special qualities and is so suited for what must be a difficult profession.
She's worth more than her fee, and anyone using her service would have such a satisfied, comforted feeling. She's such a beautiful person, inside and out. I can't praise her enough.
I would be happy for you to pass this letter on to higher management. Thank you."


DAPHNE & JACK (12 February 1998)
"On behalf of my wife Daphne and myself, I wish to take this opportunity to congratulate you on the very professional way you helped us say goodbye to our late mother.
I found in a strange way that it was hard to write to 'White Lady Funerals', a letter that could be seen as a reference, but I have no such concerns in letting you know that we were truly grateful for your gentle and professional support on every occasion we met.
It is with some regret, we cannot recall the whole service, but have been told by many, it was one of the nicest services they have ever seen.
When the 'Ladies' marched off up the road followed by Mum, both Daphne and I felt that she was in safe hands and would be treated with the dignity and respect she deserved.
We later on, both related to each other, how a calming effect went through us at this time, and we want you to know that you played no small part in this comfort that we felt.
The time you spent with us in our home, and on the day, was as such, that we felt you belonged, and we had known you nearly all our lives.
Once again, thank you, we will keep the copy of the service for the rest of our lives."
