Coral Kortlepel

I receive many, many letters from couples and families, thanking me for taking part in their celebrations.


Hi Coral,

As we reflect on the beautiful moments of our wedding day, we would like to express our gratitude to you for your exceptional role as our celebrant.

Your wealth of experience and graceful demeanor turned what could have been a stressful situation into a seamlessly orchestrated event. Your ability to handle unexpected delays, such as our parents being late, with poise and calmness was truly commendable.

As the groom, I particularly appreciated your steady presence and the way you effortlessly managed various aspects of the ceremony. From ensuring the music played flawlessly to coordinating the groomsmen and bridesmaids, and liaising with the event coordinator, you played a crucial role in making the entire process run smoothly.

Your calming influence was especially valuable to me during those moments of stress, and I am certain that your experience played a significant role in maintaining the elegance of our ceremony. The two meetings we had prior to the wedding were instrumental in ensuring that every detail was in place, and your proactive approach helped alleviate any concerns we may have had.

We sincerely appreciate your professionalism, attention to detail, and the genuine care you put into making our ceremony memorable. Your expertise was a reassuring presence, and we are grateful for the vital role you played in making our special day truly magical.

Thank you, Coral, for your outstanding contribution to our wedding. Your efforts did not go unnoticed, and we are forever grateful for the beautiful memories you helped create.

Warm regards,
Stefan & Jenny


Good morning Coral

Just wanted to send you a heartfelt thankyou for marrying us on our wedding day. You were so thoughtful, caring and provided us with such a loving ceremony. We could not have chosen a more compassionate celebrant than yourself for our perfect (albeit windy) day xxxxx thankyou again, for all that you did in making our day special xx  we have had the most amazing honeymoon and now home to begin our wonderful journey in married life  

Love the new,
Mr & Mrs Lemin (Matt & Fi)


Dear Coral, 

We would like to thank you so much for being a part of our wedding vow renewals. You married us 20 years ago and to have you back with us 20 years later was beyond special. Your calming presence takes the nerves away immediately, your genuine joy to be sharing the day with us was heart warming. 20 years later you knew who we were, who our children were and could reminisce on our first wedding together. It was such an honour to have you re marry us and it made the day even more special and romantic. We can’t thank you enough.

Much love Jo and Corey

 


 

Dear Coral,

The service was beautiful everyone that was there told me so.Thank you very much for being the celebrant you did a marvellous job.The afternoon tea was especially nice and we were able to share memories of my wonderful Vic.

Thank you once again .

Best wishes Maureen

 


 

Hi Coral

What can I say?!! Absolutely, stunningly beautiful! You took us on a magic carpet ride and made us feel absolutely safe and secure from the moment you uttered your first words on the microphone. 

 

We can’t thank you enough for your time, care and expertise through the difficult pre-wedding period and for the great poise and grace you showed on the day. 

You really are an outstanding professional and a wonderful person. We were so lucky to have you Coral. 

Sincerely

Dear Coral,

I hope you are well and having a great start to the week.

I just wanted to thank you so much for everything you did for our wedding and for marrying us.

You were absolutely perfect and so many guests made this comment also.

You made us feel comfortable and look very glamorous at the same time!

I will definitely be passing your details onto my friends who have weddings in the future.

Thank you again.

Hi Coral

Thank you so much for everything you have done for us over the past few months. We had a wonderful experience with you, you were there for us every step of the way.

The ceremony was beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for more or thought of anyone else who could of done it the way you did.

You are so elegant Coral and your energy and vibe is so calm and nurturing. You made us feel so comfortable during our vows (which can be a bit overwhelming) but we did well 🙂

I’ll share photos when I get some my way and some of the professional better ones.

We would love to leave a review, please let me know where it’s best for us to do this? We will be sure to recommend you to friends and family in the future.

Thank you & take care

Hi Coral

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you Coral for being our amazing celebrant on the cruise. She was absolutely lovely and made us so comfortable. I thought I would send some photos of our wedding for you to pass on to her. Thanks again.!

Alaina and Phil


Coral was a pleasure to work with to make the celebration of our marriage wonderful!

She puts the Bride and Groom’s needs first and is more than willing to accommodate any request. She provides invaluable information to ease the stresses associated with a wedding. I really recommend Coral as a marriage celebrant to bring that something special to your wedding day.

Kind regards,

Adele


Hello coral,

Wow, how do we put into words how thankful we are for you being our celebrant and you seeing us through into our marriage.. you truly have a gift, and everyone commented on just how perfect you were!

We truly are blessed to have come across you!

Dear Coral

Brad and I wanted to say thank you so so much for our incredible wedding ceremony you provided for us. It was truly phenomenal and we had so many guests complimenting us on how fantastic you were and we absolutely agree you are incredible.

Your attention to detail, the rehearsals, planning and meetings we had with you were so personal and made the journey of getting married less stressful. No wonder you win so many awards for your talent. You are truly the best!

We have both recommended you to many of our friends who are looking to get married in the near future.

Thank you so much for being part of our special day on the 26th April 2019.

You are #1 celebrant in Australia

Lots of love

We could not thank Coral enough for our beautiful ceremony that everyone still talking about up until today. It was truly a memorable moment of our lives.

She made the process so easy and knew exactly what to say that made our special day to be extra special. She also surprised us by citing from Nissa’s favourite book The Alchemist from Paulo Coelho to be part of our wedding ceremony.

We absolutely recommended her to be your celebrant for your wedding.

Dearest Coral,

Slowly coming down to Earth after our beautiful wedding down at Balmoral. Maurice and I just LOVED our day…in every way.

My darling family…my Mum and Dad, our 5 x children, all our close friends…everyone had the most amazing day..it was very special.

Coral, thank you sincerely for our beautiful treasured ceremony. You gave it such heart, such feeling….you delivered our thoughts so well to all that were there. It was such a gorgeous morning hearing our vows and your wonderful voice amongst the waves….I’ll never forget that special time.

We really are so lucky to have you marrying us and making our day so heartfelt. You are so stylish and calm on what is always such a nerve-filled, exciting moment and you gave me such great comfort.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Love and all our best wishes for making this journey so incredibly special.

Andrea and Maurice XX


Hi Coral,

We had a great wedding and you were superb on the day. I particularly remember how you helped my elderly uncle and aunty find seating at the front of the Little Bay Chapel next to Linda’s Chinese mafia!

You made our day special and we’ll always be in your debt.

Cheers,

Mark and Linda Powditch


Hi Coral,

Just wanted to drop you a note to say a big, big thank you for marrying Josh and myself on the day!!

I’m so grateful for your experience, professionalism, and timeliness on the day which made it all the less stressful.

I heard afterward about all the mayhem that ensued before I arrived at Rocky Point, and I just wanted to say a big thank you also for helping calm Josh down with your comforting presence.

Looking forward to sharing some photos with you when they arrive!

Regards,
Mel and Josh


Hi Coral

Hi Coral,

Just wanted to thank you for making our day a wonderful moment in our lives. Your professionalism & personal touches made a great start to the evening and really set the tone for the rest of the evening by doing our Guest Vows. Once again, Thank you Coral ️

Sincerely yours

Marvy & Allan Garvey November 2018


Good morning Coral,

We are writing to you on the morning of our twentieth wedding anniversary.

You married us at the Harbour Watch Restaurant down at The Rocks on the auspicious date of Friday 13th. (Oddly that date was fairly free!)

Doubtless, you’d need to head for the diary to stand a chance of remembering us; we’re an English couple who arranged the whole thing back then over the new-fangled Internet. There are a couple of then-and-now pictures attached to help jog the memory.

Well, we’re still going strong and so – we see from your website – are you.  Very impressed, but not at all surprised to see you’ve won so many awards since.  We particularly recall your kindness on the day.

So, we have a nineteen-year-old son and life’s pretty good.

Hope everything is well with you and Dean the wine waiter (the poor lad who got co-opted into being a witness).

Looking forward to a fine day today and at least another twenty years.

Keep up the good work.

Simon and Pauline Garland


Hi Coral

We are so lucky and happy to have met you and had you as our wedding celebrant. You are far more than a celebrant to us and you really took us through the whole happy time of planning and then having our wedding, as a friend and someone we could always rely on. On the day, you made everything so special for us and intimate, just like we had always planned and wished.

All our family present loved every minute of the wedding and without you, that would never have been possible. Thanks also so very very much for providing the contacts to Michael and Marta, who must have come from the same training school as you because they had the same happy and easy yet ultra professional and efficient manner in everything they did with us and for us. By the end of the most beautiful day of our lives, we felt like we had 3 new friends.

Thanks again so much and hope we can catch up again somewhere.

Kindest regards
Ron and Lyneece Van Saane Oct 2018


Hi Coral,

I hope you are well. Thank you so much for our beautiful wedding ceremony on the 1st at Banjo’s – it was perfect and everything went exactly as we had envisioned. Everybody enjoyed themselves and were commenting about how lovely the ceremony and vows were. Both our families were extremely happy and saying it was very ‘us’.

Thank you once again.

Regards
Jess and Andrew September 2018


Hello from Italy,

We hope you are really well, we have been meaning to contact you to offer a MASSIVE THANK YOU for a beautiful ceremony! You are one of a kind and made the ceremony for us just perfect.

Thank you, thank you! Everyone has said was an amazing day it was & you were a massive part of that.  I’ll send over photos when we are back and get some from the photographer too.

Love Sarah and Rowan 2018 x 


Hi Coral

Hope all’s well with you!

We’ve been a little terrible at finally getting around to sorting our wedding photos – but we’ve had some time today, and wanted to share some of these with you. We’d be more than happy for you to use any as you need online etc -( photo credits go to Franck Gazzola).

A huge thank you, albeit belatedly,  for helping to make our day so memorable. We had such a fantastic time – thanks for all of your words of advice in the lead up to it, and helping to make it less daunting. And of course, a huge thanks for giving up your time on a Sunday to overseeing the formalities with such warmth and style. We are grateful to have shared such a special day with you!

A heartfelt thanks once again from us both

Ella & Vish


Hi Coral,

I hope you’re well. Nicole and I have just returned from our honeymoon in Fiji and we wanted to send you a quick message to say a massive thank you. The ceremony was absolutely perfect and everything that we wanted.

You made it so stress-free and run so smoothly – we really appreciate it.

Nicole is in the midst of changing her name, and the pack that you have provided is invaluable.

Thank you once again
Anthony & Nicole


Good Morning Coral,
Thank you for a beautiful ceremony last night. This morning I am hearing the stories about the last minute changes and organisation you made and I wanted to thank you for all you did on our behalf to make the night the very best it could be.
It was all very much appreciated.
We were very lucky to be in such good hands and to have such absolute confidence that we were unconcerned about the arrangements in the background.
Thank you again, and we will be in touch again soon.
Kind regards,
Charlotte and Martin July 2018

ABIA

=============================

Coral Kortlepel – She was the consummate professional but with the warmth and heart you would hope for when trusting & choosing someone to be the person binding you to your love on your wedding day.

Coral was informative, helpful and had some excellent advice for us she was amazing from start to finish.

She provided us with incredible options for our vows and included an array of mixed traditions to include both of our religions as I am Jewish and my husband Catholic.

Coral really was magical she looked amazing and blended into the background for photos & the video and didn’t try to be the centrepiece or focal point yet she created a real presence at the ceremony. We interviewed a few other celebrants but Coral came highly recommended and she was just the perfect fit.

We are so thankful we found Coral and can’t imagine our magical wedding day without her.

Thank you so much

Monica & Chris Papp


Good morning Coral,

Kingsley and I would like to say a huge thank you for everything.  Our wedding service and wedding day were amazing.  We had a wonderful time.  We really loved how everything went smoothly for the service/ceremony – thanks to you and your input.  Wonderful and I would thoroughly recommend you to anyone looking for a celebrant

Thanks again Coral and hopefully we will meet again in the future.

Cheers

To Dear Coral

From the bottom of our hearts. Thank you! Amazing and a Beautiful job as usual. We know and understand that being our celebrant for Karen’s funeral would not have been an easy task.

As you had married her and Warren, but please know that on behalf of the family we very much appreciate your involvement, your care, and making sure that it was a beautiful day.  It made the day a little more bearable knowing that you were a part of it.

Love Always from

Nathan, Warren, MJ, Kevin, Ann and Emerson


Dearest Coral

We as a family wanted to express to you our deep gratitude for your part in our fathers funeral service.  From the moment we met you we felt comfortable and felt that we could trust you and that you would do your very best to share our thoughts about our loved one.

You did all of that and more, and we thank you.

Warm Regards

Mary, Colin, Steven and Adele. 


Hi Coral

I hope you are well and had a lovely Christmas and New Years. We have only just returned from our honeymoon and just wanted to thank you again for everything you did for us. We can’t thank you enough. We have had so many people comment on how fantastic you were.

Kind regards

Hi Coral,

Damien and I would just like to thank you for our beautiful ceremony and celebration of our wedding on board carnival spirit on the 5th Oct.

We were a little apprehensive about having the cruise line arrange the celebrant but we could not have asked for more having you! The ceremony was beautiful and captured not only us as a couple but my daughter as well and now the three of us united as a family.

You managed to take away all the stress and do so with a smile during the madness of the morning.

We can’t thank you enough for being there for us, for your kind and engaging words and the retelling of our story like you were a long-time friend – it truly was a gift

Best wishes,
Jane, Damien & Alyssa


Dear Coral,
We  are still floating on a cloud…. you created such a magical day for Pete and I. In such little time so rushed and with both of us so aloof, somehow you managed to pull it all together, and you created the most perfect personal ceremony…. I wouldn’t change a thing.

What a wonderful day. It truly was the happiest day of my life. Thank you. If there is anything I can do for you please let me know.

Lots of love. Ali & Pete


Hi Coral
Just wanted to say a big thank you for marrying Daniel & myself on carnival spirit 24/04/2016. We had the best day & cruise & we loved the service that you provided.  Thank you once again.

Dianne Bryham


5 star review:
Just like finding ‘the one’ to marry, we found the celebrant that we knew was ‘the one’ for us. Soon after we first met Coral, we knew we were onto something good. We were in good hands knowing she had everything under control. On our big day, she stood amongst us like a family member, comforting, soothing, pausing, laughing, feeling all the emotions. She made time to know the important family members to ensure they had the best view. She was patient, understanding, very informative, calming, and funny. We joked and called her ‘The First Lady’, as she is just is so gracious. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for that someone special to officiate but also be apart of the journey with you.

Regards,

Angela Faiella


Hi Coral,

Tim and I would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding day so special.

From the moment that we met with you at the Marriott Hotel both Tim and I just knew that you were someone who understood us and we both knew that you were the person who we would like to marry us.

We are so appreciative of the time you gave us leading up to our wedding day and then for being so supportive on the actual day.

Both Tim and I felt we had the best wedding ever and we received so many comments from the guests to say just that too.

We were given so many great compliments towards you and you were the pivotal person on the day to start this amazing journey.

So thank you once again for making our day the most memorable one we could have ever imagined that was filled with so much love and warmth.

I have added some photos for you that we thought you would appreciate.

Please feel free if you would like to use these photos as you wish.

Kindest regards,
Marie and Tim April 2017


Many thanks Coral

Thank you so much for being such an amazing celebrant at Luke and my wedding at Clark Park on the 31st of March. You led the ceremony so well, it was just so beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to marry us…you’re the bomb! We’ll definitely be recommending you to others…not that I think you need it being a seasoned 5,000 odd weddings in 😉

Wishing you a great year and many successful nuptials!

Cheers,

Jasmine & Luke xoxo 2017


Hi Coral,

Thanks again for marrying us in May. We’ve since been to other weddings, and after seeing other celebrants in action, Kurumi and myself realised again how professional your service was, and how your assistance helped our wedding to be just as we had hoped.

Kind regards,

Nathan & Kurumi


Hi Coral,

We are finally back into the swing of things here (back to work&#X02639).  I would really like to thank you and your team for making our special day absolutely fabulous and faultless to boot!

I cannot recommend you highly enough, from the moment we first made contact you have been a source of knowledge on all things wedding and really helped with the task or remotely planning a wedding from the other side of the world!  Everything was a breeze and at every stage we felt 100% confidence and trust in you.

Thanks again for putting me in touch with the Sydney By Sail, the florist and especially Michael Zanetti (What a dream team you both are!)

Thanks as well for sorting the Wedding Certificates out.  They arrived last week!  If you would like any votes in the wedding awards please let me know.

Take care

Beautiful Coral,

Simon and I can’t thank you enough for all of your support and guidance. Thank you for making our wedding day so very special. The wedding was utterly magical from beginning to end, made all the more special because of all the love, energy and enthusiasm you put into it. We are forever grateful for your help. Our combined families thought you were absolutely fabulous and they’re right! Thank you.

We hope that you’ve had a beautiful Easter break.

All our love

Hi Coral,

We would like to thank you for helping us on our special day yesterday.  The weather held out for us, and all went to plan.  You asked me to leave the planning with you and trust your “professional opinion”, which we did, and all went well. Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Darren and Quyen. March 2016


Good Morning Coral

Wow, I cant believe how quickly the past month has gone.  We have just got back from our amazing honeymoon in America and I wanted to send you a quick email to say a huge THANK YOU for everything you did for our wedding day. Our ceremony was everything we had imagined – relaxed and friendly.  Your words were perfect and I’m still laughing about you telling our guests that Mat arranged for the cruise ship to be in dock on the day.  Also I cant thank you enough for all your help leading up to the day and for guiding us through everything.  You made my life very easy and we will certainly recommend you to any family and friends for future wedding ceremonies.

Kind Regards,

Carmen & Matt Wootten Feb 2016


“Coral celebrant-ed our wedding ceremony so fantastically. As we had hoped she was a very calm presence throughout, keeping the groomsman party in check before the ceremony (no easy task) and really helped begin our special day in the best way possible.

Her professionalism, coupled with her care for us both (to guide us throughout the pre-ceremony process but also the ceremony itself) as well as her impromptu kind words at the end were all greatly appreciated by us both – and we would recommend her services to anyone organising an upcoming wedding or event requiring a celebrant.”


Hi Coral

Hope you’re well.

We just wanted to say thank you so much for everything. You were an absolute delight to work with in every way! We had a totally perfect day and it exceeded all expectations!! We felt so comfortable with you and you were beyond helpful with all your advice throughout the process.

We have now arrived in Thailand so winding down for a couple of weeks – I can’t believe it’s all over!!!  I’ll send you some pics when we get them!

Take care and all the best with the other upcoming weddings!

Mr & Mrs Mambraku!!! (Feels weird!!!) Jan 2016


Hi Coral,

We have finally settled back down to earth. We wanted to say thank you so very much for making our day so very special.
It was just perfect. It has been such a pleasure to get to know you and I couldn’t imagine you
doing anything else in life.

You truly add that special element.

Morning Coral

I just wanted to take the chance to say a huge thank you for celebrant-ing our wedding ceremony so fantastically last Friday. As we had hoped you were a very calm presence throughout, you kept all of the groomsman party in check before the ceremony (no easy task) and really helped begin our special day in the best way possible.

Your professionalism, coupled with your care for us both (to guide us throughout the pre-ceremony process but also the ceremony itself) as well as your kind words at the end were all greatly appreciated by us both – and we would recommend your services to anyone organising an upcoming wedding or event requiring a celebrant.

Thanks once again!

Dear Coral,

I hope you are doing well. We’d like to thank you again for amazing ceremony and professional attitude. Thanks to you we truly enjoyed our “big day”

Best regards,

Veronika & Petr


Hello Coral

This is a belated email just to thank you so much for being our celebrant and helping to pull off our surprise wedding. Ramesh and I were both grateful for your calm and methodical approach to the ceremony and it also helped us immensely to remain calm and enjoy our marriage ceremony too. Our guests are still talking about your fantastic delivery of the surprise and your professionalism definitely shone through.

I would also like to extend our appreciation to you for rescuing one of our guests who unfortunately was taken ill on the boat. Alyson and Mark thank you for looking after them and ensuring they got to their car safely.

Once again, thankyou.

Kind regards Ramesh and Trish


Hi Coral,

It would be our pleasure to give a glowing review for you. We were so thrilled with our wedding day and having you there to speak such lovely words and hold everyone together for the ceremony was amazing. You came so highly recommended to us and we know exactly why.

Thanks again

Dear Coral

Thank you for very much for making our wedding ceremony so very special.

We had such a wonderful day, watching our families and our friends relax and enjoy themselves, they all said that they enjoyed the day as much as we did. You were the one who made it very special for us.

Your presentation of the ceremony was also so relaxed, yet the deep commitment of a marriage was certainly not lost. Thank you also for allowing to meet with you several times to go through things. It made us relax and feel very calm and confident on the day.

You are gifted at what you do Coral, we felt like we had known you all our lives! Thank you again and our very best wishes to you always.

Wendy and Mark Ryan 2015

Dear Coral

I hope you are well. I just wanted to share with you this photo of our wedding, and let you know we had the best day ever and loved every second. We also wanted to thank you for being our celebrant, you were amazing to work with, so professional and personable. I remember meeting with you and being so nervous in the few days leading up to our wedding and you took my hand and instantly made me relax. Finding a celebrant and having someone be part of such a significant moment and commitment in your life is a big decision, and we both agreed that you were that perfect person. From helping us with our vows, to meeting us on site to walk through the ceremony and on the day of the wedding your sense of calm, knowledge and attention to detail made us completely relax as we knew we were in good hands. Thank you for being part of this special day.

Warmest regards Katrina & Richard Nolan 2015


Dear Coral,

I wanted to thank you so very much for being our celebrant. You made our ceremony so special, it was perfect. You were a joy to work with and made everything so easy and smooth. You are a true professional.

I wish we could do it all again! It all goes way too quickly. Thank you so much foreverything.

Love Lucy and Pete

Coral, from the moment we first met you, you simplified the entire marriage process. You guided us through vow choices, encouraged our individuality, included our personality and really ensured our ceremony reflected our values and who we are as individuals. We loved that you could include our little girl in our day particularly with the importance you placed on our marriage exemplifying the love and devotion we shared not only amongst ourselves but with our daughter too. Our marriage, after all was not only for the two of us, but for our child and our future children.

We are so VERY GLAD that we were blessed with your care and advice, and grateful for the time, love and support you gave us throughout the planning process. With only 10 weeks to plan our wedding, due to my fathers sudden decline in his health, you eased our stresses more than words can say. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts!

Love always, Aaron, Brittany & Imogen

Hello Coral,

Thank you again for making our day special day (25th Oct 2014) a breeze and, we were very pleased with the way you handled the ceremony, your professionalism and they way that you took control, we couldn’t be happier. We have no hesitation recommending you to any newlyweds but it seems you are doing very well anyway.

Kind regards

Janette & Andrew Collins

Dear Coral,

Thank you so much for being our celebrant and for all of the work and suggestions before the ceremony. Being in the USA and planning long distance is challenging, but you made it so easy for us.

I found so much information on the Internet that I was overwhelmed, but when I saw your information and and starting exchanging emails with you, everything quickly fell into place. I knew that you were a perfect choice. You were very professional yet warm and friendly too. You began asking all the right questions. I could tell that you were experienced and very sincere in your desire to learn about us so the ceremony reflected us and our life together. You are an elegant and charming lady; it was delightful just to spend time with you.

You also proved that you are the expert on locations. The Euclypt Lawn was ideal. Exactly what we wanted based on how we envisioned the ceremony, but since we had never been there we were not sure where to go. We are so grateful for that recommendation.

And again, you saved us time and helped us find the perfect photographer. We loved Michael from Studio Zenetti. He is very professorial and also was fun to be with it. And of course, his photographs are wonderful.

Again, thank you for making our ceremony so special.

Warm regards, Sheryl and Bill, Boston USA

Dear Mr O’Meara (Head of the ABIA)

We would like to provide a special review of services from our 10 Oct ceremony. Being in the USA and planning long distance is challenging, but Coral Kortlepel made it so easy for us.

We found so much information on the Internet that we were overwhelmed, but when we saw her information and starting exchanging emails, everything quickly fell into place. We knew that she was a perfect choice. She was very professional yet warm and friendly too. She began asking all the right questions. We could tell that she is experienced and very sincere in her desire to learn about us so the ceremony reflected us and our life together. Coral is an elegant and charming lady; it was delightful just to spend time with her.

She also proved that she is the expert on locations. the setting she recommended was ideal. Exactly what we wanted based on how we envisioned the ceremony, but since we had never been there we were not sure where to go. We are so grateful for that recommendation.

And again, she saved us time and helped us find the perfect photographer. We loved Michael from Studio Zanetti. He is very professional and also was fun to be with it. And of course, his photographs are wonderful. He too did superb work. He loves what he does, and he respects the importance and personal nature of your day.

We would definitely recommend both of them to other couples. Especially those visiting form other countries since they are great ambassadors for Australia overall.

Regards Sheryl and Bill, Boston USA

Dave and I would truly like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for marrying us last Sunday and also for looking after us at the ceremony and making sure that the service ran smoothly.

Everyone had provided great positive feedback about you and had probably wished they had you as their celebrant!

Thank you for looking after all the little issues that arose on the day as well. We greatly appreciate what you have done for us on Sunday and we are so grateful to have you be part of our wedding day!

Thank you very, very much and we hope you enjoyed your day as much as we did.

Regards,
Linda & David August 2014.

Dear Coral

Thank you for being our celebrant and for making everything run so smoothly. Your are amazing at your job and a true professional. Thank you for being the one to marry us. You will always be in our hearts.

Love Lucy & Pete December 2014

Hi Coral,

What can we say, the ceremony was beautiful to say the least. Everyone commented on how much your words meant and we feel that having you as our celebrant made our special day that much more memorable. Your quick thinking and improvisation with regards to the rose was amazing.

Thank you so much. We will be going on our honeymoon tomorrow and when Michael sends us back the final shots from our wedding, we will definitely forward you the best pics from our wedding and also our honeymoon.

Please have a wonderful rest of the week and a relaxing weekend.

Thank you once again, we couldn’t have asked for more than what you gave us, and we feel the ceremony went so smooth was because you made it happen.

Kind regards,
Ason and Kerry August 2014. Hello Coral
Just a quick note now that we’re back from our honeymoon to thank you for being our celebrant at the zoo on 2nd August. It was a pleasure having you marry us and working with you in the lead up. We had a ball on the day with no hiccups! Thanks again,
Sarah & Jeff

Hi Coral,

Yonca and I wanted to thank you once again for everything you did for us leading up to and on Sunday night. Everyone made mention to us how beautiful and authentic the ceremony was, which would not have been possible without you.

Hope you’re well, speak soon.
All our love,

Subject: Marriage Celebrant Coral Kortlepel Dear John,
I am writing to inform you that Coral Kortlepel was my marriage celebrant at my wedding on the 5th of April, 2014. I could not have wished for anyone more professional than Coral as she did a brilliant job and made my wedding day very memorable. Coral is so easy to get along with and made some wonderful suggestions for our Wedding Ceremony which was absolutely perfect for us and the occasion. Our guests were so impressed with Coral’s professionalism and many of them informed us that she was the best celebrant they had witnessed. My husband and I totally agree and are grateful that she was recommended to us. Kindest regards,
Michelle Ruffels/Webb

Hi Coral,

Valentina and I just got back from our honeymoon in Europe and wanted to thank you for making our ceremony so magical. You really are an amazing person and great at what you do.We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Thank you
Ramine & Valentina Roshanak

Letter of praise to the head of the Bridal Industry ABIA

Dear John

I would like to write supporting Coral for the Abia award for Best Celebrant. I was recently married by Coral and her attention to detail, help with matters quite separate from the actual ceremony (i.e. advice regarding music, dress, flowers, etc.) was certainly above and beyond what would normally be expected.

Having attended several weddings recently, it was obvious to us how professional Coral is – she spoke naturally and clearly and definitely took the time to make sure it was tailored to suit us. Her support before the wedding, both with face to face meetings and ongoing emails was excellent. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a celebrant. She is more like a wedding planner!

Please let me know if you would like any further information.

Regards
Joanna Jones

Dear Coral, Thank you so much for the wonderful ceremony which you performed for Natasha and I on the 24th of May. We could not have been more happy and grateful for how blessed we were to have everything go as well as it did under your close supervision.

Tash and I have just arrived back home from our honeymoon. Until now that whole day has seemed like such a blur but when we got home yesterday and got a chance see some of the photos from the ceremony it reminded us just how lovely (although overwhelming at the time) it was. The setting, the music and your words were so beautiful and everything that we could have imagined. Thank-you so much!

Once again I would like to say how grateful Tash and I are for your wonderful service. Thank you so much!

Kindest regards,
Jerry and Tash Tawalo 2014

Dear Coral

Thank you so much for making the planning of our wedding day and the day itself so easy, fun and stress free. We are so thankful that your were recommended to us, and we only ever discussed our day with you.

When the nerves hit us on the day, it was so comforting to know we would see you at the venue, and all would be completely under control.

We loved even more that you enjoyed our vows, and we all lost time enjoying the day, the wine and chatting at our final meeting before the day, was so relaxing and exciting.

Thank you so much
Steve and Cushla (The Berry’s)

Dear John, (Head of Australian Bridal Industry Awards)

I am writing in regards to our celebrant Coral Kortlepel who married my now husband and I on the 8th of February 2014.

I would love to nominate her for the ABIA award and have completed the nomination form online. I would like to go further to mention to you of how deserving she is of this award.

From start to finish she provides everything we required. Coral gave us a booklet of ideas for ours vows, poems, the way weddings were structured, legal components, was willing to meet us on several occasions, was happy to take every phone call, to answer every question, married us and even gave us a booklet which listed all the agencies where i had to change my name! She really has thought about this whole process and made ceremony component of the wedding really easy. I could rave on about her for a while but in short words, she has gone above and beyond.

Please consider her for the ABIA award as she deserves it and enjoy the rest of your week!

Warmest,

Alana

Dear Coral,
You have been very much in my thoughts and I should have contacted you earlier to thank you for the wonderful wedding ceremony you held for David and me. It was absolutely beautiful and our guests were very complimentaryof you and your professionalism. Thank you once again Coral. The wedding ceremony was flawless and I
have the dvd to look back on with love and appreciation. Kindest regards,
Michelle & David

Hi Coral,

I just wanted to say thank you so much for marrying us on Saturday. From the moment we met you, we felt so comfortable with you and you certainly didn’t let us down on the day.

Cye and his mum tells me you took charge the moment you arrived at Centennial Park which is exactly what they needed. Thank you for making it so easy for us and providing us the guidance and support we needed.

All the best,
Jo & Cye 10th May 2014

John

I’m writing to you to highly recommend the celebrant services of Coral Kortlepel.   I have given her the highest marks on your Abia website.  I cannot say enough times how amazing Coral was to have as an integral member of my wedding ceremony.

She was punctual, positive, funny, understanding, helpful and very professional.  I had several members of my wedding party tell me that they absolutely loved her!  She just had a way of helping everyone involved in the wedding relax and enjoy themselves.  And she made our day so very personalized. We really appreciate her services and feel like everyone should know how fabulous she is!

Regards,

Caitlyn & Linden Kinnaird

Hello Coral,
We are back from our honeymoon & had a wonderful time away, weather was perfect.

A very big “thank you” for all that you did on the day of our wedding. Everything turned out brilliantly & we are very very happy. You did a wonderful job, thank you.

The wedding ceremony was beautiful with lots of comments from our guests, and what a beautiful venue …..can’t wait to see the photo’s from Michael.

Once again, thank you so much from the two of us.
Grace & Garth Bell Feb 2014

Hi Coral,

Due all the stuff going on directly after our Ceremony I didn’t personally get the opportunity to properly thank you on behalf of my wife and I and also tell you what an amazing job you did marrying us! You were brilliant, particularly calming me and helping guests with buttonholes when I was in a flap post setting up the Trawler room decorations and finer touches.

We couldn’t have picked a better, more sincere and professional celebrant than yourself. It was the perfect start to our magical small wedding. If any of our friends marry in Sydney we will advise them they would be mad not to try and secure you.

A huge thanks again

Mr & Mrs Kelsall 2014

Coral, I would just like to say THANK YOU for the wonderful ceremony!
It was sooooo beautiful and everyone was telling us how lovely it was!
Our day was perfect and we could not have asked for a more perfect
celebrant!!

Thank you.

Shawnna & Geoff Feb 2014

Dear Coral,

Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special and especially your patience through the delays. So many people told me how much they enjoyed your ceremony and how everything came together so magically! I have attached a couple of my favourite pics for you. The last one of the 3 of us is especially my favourite!

Thank you again! Stella and Miltos

Dear Coral,

Tim and I would like to thank you for helping us create a beautiful ceremony. We received lots of compliments from our guests about how lovely our ceremony was. Thank you for helping us with the idea of Tim walking up the aisle to meet me and walk me down the aisle, many of our guests said this was the most beautiful part of the ceremony.

Thank you for helping us create a ceremony that was truly us, with our own vows and vows for the guests to repeat!

Thank you for helping to make our wedding ceremony so special and memorable.

Kind regards,

Susie and Tim (25 October 2013)

Hi Coral,

Anna and I just wanted to say how amazing your delivery of the service
yesterday was. We have had so many brilliant comments about you from
everyone at our service and we both had just a dreamy wedding. Best wishes and thanks again
Stuart and Anna December 2013

Hello there Coral,

Hope all is well. This is just an email to say a very very big THANK YOU. We appreciate all your hard work on our special day. You were PERFECT in every way. We just ADORE YOU! Our day was complete having you there, we couldn’t think of anyone who could have made us feel as relaxed and special as you did. (We felt like you were Family).

We can’t thank you enough! Our day was unforgettable! We hope at some stage in the future we are able to meet again. We hope you and your family have an amazing Christmas and New year. Take care.

All our LOVE Sheree and Marty Todd. 2013xxx

Coral Kortlepel was our marriage celebrant. Coral was amazing and very professional. She gave us lots of advice before the big day, helped us prepare a very emotional ceremony and made sure everyone knew what they had to do and there was no stress on the day. I would definitely recommend her as a marriage celebrant. She is the best.

Christophe & Rosa Capel 2013

Hi coral,

I wanted to say a big thank you from Kevin and myself, you are amazing in what you do! You are professional and know how to handle every situation that is thrown at you.

We truly appreciate everything you done for us prior to the day and on the day. We will be recommending you to everyone we know looking for a celebrant.

Brooke Morgan

Hi Coral,

We’re just back from our honeymoon and Darren and I would like to say a big thank you for being our wedding celebrant! We had many lovely comments from our guests about what a great celebrant you were, not only during the ceremony but during the madness beforehand with the furniture not being set up. We can’t thank you enough for going over and above for us and making our day that little easier. And the rehearsal with dad was definitely needed! You’re such a professional! 🙂

Many thanks,
Jen & Darren Oct 2013

Dear Coral

A year has passed, and your voice and amazing words still linger and are so clear in our minds. It seems like only yesterday.

Although we took a hugh risk by having a civil ceremony, as it was not to our families wishes, but it was the best decision we made, and in particular to have you there with us.

Everyone was touched and felt every word you were saying. THANK YOU and you will always be a big part of our lives.

Charlie and Annie Gharache


Dear Coral

Thank you so much for making our wedding ceremony so very special. We had such a wonderful day, watching our families and friends enjoy the day as much as us. You made it a very special day for all.

Your presentation of the ceremony was also so relaxed, yet the deep commitment of a marriage was certainly not lost. Thank you also for allowing us to meet with you several times to go through things. You made us feel so confident on the day.

You are a very gifted person in what you do Coral, we felt like we had known you all our lives. Thank you and over very best wishes to you always

Wendy and Mark Ryan 11th August 2013


Hi Coral,

Well, we have just arrived back from our honeymoon in Lord Howe Island and as predicted, we are still receiving compliments about how beautiful our wedding ceremony was, and what an absolutely fantastic job you did!

We can’t thank you enough. You made both of us feel completely at ease on the day and we were totally confident that you had everything under control, even when our musician failed to show.

We had the most perfect day and felt so calm and content at the ceremony that we really had a chance to take it all in and enjoy the moment completely.

Thanks again!

Mark and Gill 2013


Dear Coral,

I am writing to thank you so much for the wedding ceremony you conducted for Tracy and Clint’s wedding, on Saturday 5th October 2013 at the St George Motor Boat Club.

It was exactly what they wanted. And our guests commented afterwards on how beautiful and appropriate the ceremony was for them.

Thank you again.

Kind regards,
Margaret (Tracy’s mother)


Hi Coral,

Adrian and I just wanted to thank you again for our beautiful wedding ceremony. So many of our guests have commented on how lovely it was and especially how lovely you are!

I hope you are well.

Firstly Matthew & I want to thank you immensely for our absolutely beautiful ceremony you created for us!! 🙂

You were amazing and made us feel so special, I’m so glad we met you at the St George motor boat club wedding expo and so glad we decided you were the one. You were perfect and we wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you for all your help with all the preparations too, you made things so easy and stress free for us.

I would gladly and strongly recommend you to anyone 🙂
Not sure what site we go to to vote for you, if you let me know, we would be more then happy to vote for you over and over again.

Kind regards
Helena & Matthew George 2013


Dear Coral,

Bob and I would like to say a big “Thank You” to you for marrying us on Saturday 7/9/13 on a beautiful sunny harbour day. Picture perfect!

You were so GREAT ( In full Capital) Coral , you performed such a moving ceremony that made Bob fight back tears, brought tears to Sylvie, Andrew and others! Your words were carefully chosen to suit our circumstances, the union of my family and Bob’s and the way you also included our extended families and friends who have shared our life’s journey.

You had made me feel at ease at that moment that I had the courage to say the beautiful poem that I had chosen for Bob. The beautiful poem I had picked from your list which exactly describes my love, my commitment and devotion for my soul mate, my best friend and my other half. People sometimes say words are hard to describe how you feel but that poem had said it all. Thank you!

I did not sleep last night, laying awake replaying the wedding from the start to the end and there was nothing that I wished to change. It was perfect and you were a big part of it. Yesterday I did not cry but today it all sinked in and woke up in the morning all teary. Tears of happiness and I feel blessed!

Today we left cold, grey with drizzly rain in Sydney to Bali with warmth in our hearts filled with sweet and beautiful memories of yesterdays wedding.

You don’t do Christenings do you? (just joking, Ha Ha Ha!!!!)

Love,
Michelle and Bob

PS: It would be our utmost pleasure to recommend you to anyone who plans to get married. You were absolutely amazing!


Coral

I hope your well!

I just wanted to thank you soooooooooooo much! You were brilliant! You are such a beautiful person inside and out, every single person commented on how amazing and spectacular you were, thank you

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts
Michael and Simona Hull xo

Hi Coral,

I just wanted to touch base now that I am back at work and thank you so very much for doing such a wonderful job not only at the ceremony, but throughout the entire process!

You have been so friendly and easy to deal with, and nothing was ever too much trouble J the ceremony went perfectly, and all our guests have said how much they loved it!

Thank you so much for being so lovely and genuine!

Thanks,

Kate and Ash March 2013


Dear John,

We just wanted to send a written review for our marriage celebrant Coral Kortlepel, for our wedding on 16th March 2013, as part of nominations for the ABIA awards. We have nothing but praise for Coral. Her service was professional, some examples being prompt replies, fitting meetings around our schedules, and her overall courtesy, warmth, and genuineness. Coral provided advice on what sort of documents to arrange after the wedding, as one of us will be returning overseas; we did not even know about what to obtain prior to Coral’s advice, so it was great to have the knowledge well before the departure date.

We found Coral through a general Google search, and were impressed with the many reviews listed, as well as the glowing letters of praise. The process was relaxed and smooth from initial email to wedding day. Our guests also commented on how impressed they were with Coral on the day. We couldn’t have asked anything more from Coral, and were blessed to have her as our celebrant on our special day. We feel she certainly deserves recognition for her outstanding work!

Kind regards,

Bryant & May


Hello Coral

We wanted to say a huge thank you to you for everything you did for us and our wonderful ceremony. The day was just perfect and we have you to thank for that!

From the moment we booked you and had our first meeting you made the whole process very relaxing and stress free! We are so glad we found you and you married us

All the best!
Dragana and John 2013


Hi Coral,

Many thanks again.

Kirsty and Murray Xxx


Hi Coral,

We Just wanted to touch base and send a big ‘thank you’ for all the effort and work you did on our wedding day! The ceremony was lovely, and you were just fantastic at rallying up the troops and helping us calm our nerves!

Thank you and all the very best,

Ed & Sonya March 2013


Hi Coral

You were beyond amazing on our wedding day Coral, and I can’t imagine anyone else ever beating you in the ABIA awards, and I couldn’t imagine being married by anyone else. Matt and I were incredibly lucky to have you marry us. You completely calmed me down when we met prior to the wedding when I was incredibly stressed.

Thank you again Coral, I hope you win you deserve it!

Kind regards
Anna & Matt Osborne (nee Delahunty).


Hi Coral,

I wanted to give you a heartfelt thank you for all you did to make Ivan and
Sarah’s wedding such a wonderful day.Your knowledge, professionalism, but

have a million testimonials all ready!

Thanks once again.

Kind regards

Hi Coral,

I was thinking that I needed to send a big THANK YOU to you.

Nigz and I want to sincerely THANK YOU for sharing the special day with us. We appreciate that you made it easy for us, being helpful and giving us great personal input for the ceremony. Your suggestion including our children into our ceremony was very thoughtful and truly made it more meaningful and sentimental for us.

Your paitience and understanding in realising that Nigz and I was not your typical couple getting married 😛 And on the wedding day your professionalism and thoroughness in explaining to my father and I is greatly appreciated, for me that was very important, THANK YOU :p That made us realised that we are not just another client to you.

From our initial meeting….you were friendly, open and honest and that was only in 15 minutes!Sincerely THANK YOU and we hope that in near future our path will cross again.

Love Nigz & Linh


Hi Coral!

Hi Coral,

I hope this email finds you well! Firstly I wanted to thank you so very much for everything on our wedding day – you made the ceremony so special for us, we have had so many compliments on how wonderful our celebrant was!, and I am so appreciative of how you kept Rick and I so calm (or as calm as we could be!) with your manner and taking the reins of everything on the day. I was an emotional wreck the week leading up to the wedding and in our final meeting your calming and confident words just did wonders at putting me at ease, so thank you thank you thank you!!

We have recently returned from a beautiful honeymoon in the Maldives and I am keen to finalize the name changing paper work before I get sucked back into my day to day life J Can I ask you for some help on what to do?

Thanks and speak soon!

Xx Serena & Rick


Dear John O’Meara (Head of ABIA) Australian Bridal Industry

I wanted to write to you personally to sing the praises of our wedding celebrant, Coral Kortlepel. We were married 29th September this year and Coral was just amazing. So professional and warm our ceremony was beautiful and everything ran smoothly because of her. I have attended many weddings so I know how often celebrant don’t quite get it right but Coral is definetly not one of these celebrants. We honeslty feel honoured that she married us.

If you could please count my vote for her in your awards I would be very grateful.

Yours Sincerely, Kristy Murphy


Coral is the best celebrant anyone could wish for. She is a very warm, calm, organised and lovely lady who ensured that we had the best wedding day in our favourite city as we arrived from England/United Kingdom. We were so very lucky that we found the best! A 5 Star rating doesn´t seem enough reward for a truly very special person.

Dagmar & Nigel


Dear Coral
We apologize that this is so belated and long overdue. But we wanted to thank you for your wonderful service and making our wedding a complete success. Working with you was an extremely smooth process from the start to the finish, and we couldn’t have been happier.

We hope that your doing well and that our paths will cross again in the future.

All the best and thanks again

Chelsea & Nathan USA


Dear Coral

Many many thanks.

Hello Coral,

Thanks for helping us create a beautiful wedding ceremony. It really was perfect. Gary & I loved every moment of the planning with you & quietly knew from our first meeting, that we had hit the jackpot, it was clear we were going to be in good hands & our ceremony was going to be magical.

You really made it, with your confidence, experience & professionalism. We couldn’t have asked for a better Celebrant, we were so lucky to have you marrying us. By the way you looked beautiful, loved your outfit, hair & make-up. You’re one classy lady. Our guests loved you too.

Thank you Coral Anita & Gary 2012


Hi Coral

Thank you so much for marrying us and being part of our wedding day. We were extremely lucky to have the benefit of your experience, and your calming and reassuring presence with us on this very special day. Your guidance and support were so important and enabled not only us, but my parents and our bridal party to relax, be ourselves and enjoy the ceremony. The ceremony itself was really beautiful, and conducted with both grace and feeling. Thank you for giving us such wonderful memories to take with us in married life!

Best wishes
Laura and Tim

Coral,
Happy Chinese New Year!! How are you? Time is flying, its been two months since our wedding last year Nov.

Finally i got my photos from my photographer. I’d like to share some photos with you. Thank you very much for your help during the preparation of my wedding. Its my pleasure that I chosen you to be my wedding celebrant. Thank you so much! Wish you all the best in the year of Dragon.

love,
Jessica & Dahai


Hi Coral

Just wanted to drop you a quick note before we depart for our honeymoon.

Thank you for doing a brillant job yesterday. We were thrilled with the way you conducted the ceremony. A number of guests commented that it was the best celebrant ceremony they’d seen. You were so polished, dignified and confident in challenging wind conditions! We felt very calm having you there directing us each step of the way. We really enjoyed meeting you and appreciated all your suggestions and tips leading up to the wedding day.

All the best, Rebecca and Ian


Dear Coral

Thank you so much for being our celebrant, we’re so glad you married us! You were amazing and calm and gorgeous on the day.

Love Sarah and Mitch April 2012


Hi Coral,

We’d just like to thank you for the wonderful ceremony that you put together for us. It was absolutely perfect and we couldn’t have wished for anything more. Thank you for your sensitivity and meticulous organisation, you are truly the consummate professional.

Many thanks again,
Isabel and Ryan


Dear Coral,

We are the one who should thank you for marrying us. Amongst all other suppliers for our wedding (some didn’t even deliver to the expectation), you are the most flawless one.

Our guests love the way you speak and the way you conducted the ceremony.  We truly thank you for all the guidance from day 1 till the preparation minutes before the ceremony started. Couldn’t imagine what the ceremony would be without you. Even before you asked us to rate your service, we had already done so in the easy weddings just shortly after the wedding.

Hopefully, every other couple will have the same enjoyable experience in preparing their wedding with you. I would never hesitate to give good words about you to others.

Thanks again,
Erin Wibowo 2012


Hi Coral,

How have you been?

Thanks once again for an amazing day. Our ceremony was absolutely amazing, we have had some many family and friend comment on how fantastic the ceremony was and how wonderful it was that it didn’t drag on like other weddings they had been too. You made the ceremony about Brett and I and the love we have for each other and for that we thank you.

You are truly a wonderful person and that makes you a wonderful celebrant. Thanks again for everything

Regards, Alecia & Brett


Hi Coral,

I’m so sorry we haven’t been in contact until now. We got back from our honeymoon in December and then had to go back to the Goldcoast until mid december and then Christmas came, and went and the time has just flown. Thank-you so very much for the amazingly beautiful ceremony you gave us. We had the best day of our life together and it exceeded our expectations, we were so thrilled at how the whole day went and you were a main contributor to that. All our guests loved you!

Thanks
xx Tess & Aron Waters 2011


Dear Coral,

Thanks again to you Coral. We had a lovely day despite the rain and you were perfect…your articulation/attention to details and humour /wit was exactly what we were looking for and from the outset you made us both feel very relaxed and comfortable in your presence…..we were both nerve free, happy and in excellent spirits. We both just wanted a relaxed small (couldn’t get much smaller) ceremony that was pleasant and lovely and you topped that off for us perfectly so we just wanted to say a huge thankyou from us both. We loved it.

We have had a look at some of the photos and will send you through a couple soon.

Thanks again.
Matthew and Chloë

Hi Coral,

Lauren and I want to thank you for an amazing ceremony on Sunday!
It turned out perfectly! We really appreciate your help and guidance in
coordinating and running it – we couldn’t have hoped for a better outcome! Thanks again,
Richard and Lauren 8th January 2012


To other Brides and Grooms

We were delighted with Coral Kortlepel and the service she provided for our wedding and we would highly recommend her as a marriage celebrant. Coral is very professional with a warmth and sense of humour that makes her a pleasure to work with. In addition, the supporting documents she provided made customising the vows, readings and ceremony quite simple and stress-free. The result was a lovely, very personal ceremony that was a significant enhancement to our wedding day.

David and Evelyn 2011


Hi Coral

Well, we have been home now for just over a week and it’s thoroughly depressing! We loved our month in Australia, to the point where I would seriously consider a more permanent visit! I just have to persuade Sally now.

Now we are back, we just wanted to express our thanks once again for our fantastic wedding. Trying to plan it from the UK seemed fairly simple and this is only because we had such an amazing person on the other end of theemails putting our ideas into action. We honestly don’t know how we could have done it without you. I think I told you when we met up, but from that very first email you sent us, we knew that you were the celebrant we wanted.

Thank you also for arranging Howard to take the photos. Again, we couldn’t have had a nicer man! We loved his non-pushy attitude and the enthusiasm he showed. I will send a few of them on another email. Feel free to put any of them on your website if you would like. Please also thank Katrina for her helpfulness and support during our 20 months or so correspondence sincewe first contacted you.

I know we had a couple of issues on the run up to the big day, with Qantas grounding their planes, the flowers going out of season and then the big storm just three days before! Obviously, we were quite concerned but when I called you to express our concern, it was met with utter calm and we loved
the way that you kicked straight into the action and within a few hours had secured an alternative venue within the gardens should we need it. Needless to say, it wasn’t needed and the day turned out to be perfect. I’m putting the credit for the weather down to you as well!

When we met you at the hotel, your warmth and friendliness again instilled confidence in us that we had chosen not just the right celebrant but we wouldn’t have wanted anybody else to marry us. All of our friends and family who came out, all said how lovely you were. Please let us know or your travel plans to the UK next year and when you are visiting the Cotswolds, if you have time, we would love to come and meet you and your husband for a drink.

Finally, Coral, if there is anything we can say or do to help you get the recognition or award that you deserve, please let us know what we need to do or who we can write to. You are a credit to your profession and an amazing person. You really were a major part of our special day and we will not
forget that.

Lots of love Matt & Sally


Hi Coral,

I’ve attached some of the amazing shots that Michael took on our day, we have included the ones you are in for you to have a look at. I hope you love them as much as we do. Looking back, we really didn’t remember laughing anywhere near as much as the photographs are showing but our day was truly fantastic and we have you to thank for how wonderful our ceremony was.

That you were able to take control, but still make us feel comfortable and relaxed enough to enjoy the moment was such a blessing, your professionalism was outstanding, and words can’t express how much it was appreciated!

We have had several comments from family and friends since the day about how wonderful they thought you were and we totally agree!

Best of luck with everything and if we dont speak to you have a wonderful christmas.

Joanne and Mark Williams 2011


Coral, you definitely deserve full marks for the wonderful ceremony you conducted for us! I got so many nice compliments about how lovely and personal it was, and your sense of humour really added to the occasion too!

We were delighted with your service and we would highly recommend you as a marriage celebrant. I would say to anyone considering selecting you to do so without reservation – we found you to be very professional with a warmth and sense of humour that make you a pleasure to work with. In addition, the supporting documents you provided made customising the vows, readings and ceremony quite simple and stress free. The result was a lovely, very personal ceremony that was a significant enhancement to our wedding day.

Many thanks, Evelyn Willard


Hi Coral,

Kurt and I would like to once again thank you for marrying us on 14 October 2011.

We first witnessed you conducting a ceremony at John & Carol Debono’s wedding in 2009 and we were so impressed that we decided to engage you for our wedding.

Your professionalism and graceful manner in which you conduct your ceremonies is amazing.  We could not have asked for a more special ceremony, one which we will remember forever. Again, thank you for being our
celebrant.

We will have no hesitation in recommending you to any of our family and friends who are getting married.

Regards,
Sonya & Kurt Jackson

Dear Coral,

Where do I start, our wedding day was made very, very special by having you there with us on our special day. You provided us with a beautiful ceremony that was specifically personalised for us. We were very pleased that our beautiful children were involved on the day, especially my eldest son Chris, who walked me down the aisle – you were able to calm the nerves of my future husband with encouraging words of wisdom.

Most importantly Coral, you were able to put together a beautiful ceremony which reflected both of us as a couple,and expressed beyond words what was most important to us on the day.

Mark and I thank you for achieving a truly magical wedding, and we are blessed for having you as our celebrant.

Thanking you,
Kylie and Mark Lebrocque


Hi Coral,

Geoff and I wish to sincerely thank you for so graciously performing our ceremony yesterday. You looked absolutely gorgeous and the care you put into your outfit was reminiscent of the care you put into getting to know Geoff and I personally and providing a service that was unique to us.

We received nothing but glowing appraisals from guests on how lovely the ceremony was. Wish you all the very best and will be sure to email you a picture when we get the photos back.

Kind Regards, Natasha


Hi Coral,

Just wanted to send you a big thankyou for being our celebrant at our wedding on Friday 30th September 2011. We were so excited that we were able to have you as our celebrant in only a couple of months notice, and all our guests are still commenting about how lovely you were!

You made the whole process so easy for us, and we are truly honoured that you were able to perform our ceremony. So once again thankyou, and here is a little pic of us with you on the day attached.

Kind Regards

To whom it may concern

Re: Coral Kortlepel – Proprietor, Beautiful Celebrations

On the 28th of December 2010 we were married in the Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney with the most beautiful backdrop of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera house.

The Day was perfect. The setting, with our friends and family, the reception later, the photographer, the musician, the makeup, the flowers and of course,
the celebrant, Coral. As we were both overseas when much of the wedding was planned, Coral was like a dream come true to us. Not only did Coral conduct the most beautiful ceremony but she also helped us throughout the whole planning process, by introducing and recommending us to the most wonderful people
who were genuinely interested in our day being perfect and magical. And it surely was. We can thoroughly recommend Coral as the most caring and genuine professional that one could ever wish to meet. It was a pleasure to make her
acquaintance and we continue to have happy memories of our day and the special part Coral played in it.

Please do not hesitate to contact us via e-mail if you require any further information.

Gordon and Marina Whitelaw


Dear Coral,

Thank you for being a special part of our wedding day. Your service was wonderful and it was a pleasure to work with you. You are truly a professional and I would recommend you to any couple who wants a sincere and genuine ceremony.

I have attached photos from the ceremony for you and a few of my favourite photos of Grant and me.

We also appreciate all the great referrals; they did not disappoint.

Take Care
From Grant and Teresa Shepherd


Hi Coral,

I wanted to write and thank you for everything you did for both Nat and I in leading up to our big day which was the 15th of Jan.

We thank you for your patience, understanding and for guiding us through the whole process. Nat and I had the best day, which turned into a magical night, which also ensured that we had a great couple of weeks away on our honeymoon.

Your calming influence ensured that we were all prepared and ready to go. Many people have commented on how great our ceremony and celebrant were.

Again, Thanks so much, it will never be forgotten.

Best Regards,
Chad & Nat 15th Jan


Hello Coral,

I attach a photo of Thomas and mine from the day as mentioned in yesterdays’ email 🙂

One more question: you mentioned a while ago that I need to go to the registry office with our marriage certificate in order to have our marriage confirmed in Germany. Is that correct, or do I (also) need to take it to the German consulate? Talking about the certificate, will you send it to us via mail?

Thanks once again for a memorable and beautiful ceremony!

Kind regards
Diane

Hi Coral,

I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful ceremony that you did for us last weekend. The ceremony was by far the highlight of the night for me and Ben also enjoyed the whole thing which was very unexpected.

I had so many comments over the course of the night from various guests saying how wonderful they thought you were. I have also had an email from a guest looking for your details for another friend getting married so I can see how you end up so busy!

Thank you for everything, good luck with the rest of the weddings this year.
