Gathered by Shanda

Shanda was the celebrant for our wedding ceremony in Perth in December 2022, and we could not speak any higher of Shanda and her services! Shanda made the entire ceremony planning process stress-free & fun and we clicked with her from our very first cafe meet-up. Our personalised ceremony script was perfect, and she nailed our love story. Shanda made the whole ceremony feel very special and we felt well-supported on the day despite our nerves navigating the ceremony with her smiling and friendly face to guide us. Her communication leading up to and also after our wedding was excellent too. Will be recommending Shanda as a wedding celebrant to EVERYONE we know getting married - she is truly phenomenal.

Shanda was extremely professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. She ensured we were comfortable with everything leading up to the wedding and that we knew exactly what to expect. We would recommend Gathered by Shanda for anyone seeking the perfect wedding ceremony experience.

Could not recommend Shanda as a celebrant enough!!!!Shanda was professional, in tune with US, polished in every way from dealing with us, the other people she had to coordinate with on the day for everything to flow, and most of all - the absolute hilight was her service in itself.She tapped into us as a couple so perfectly. We wanted romance, a touch of humour and a whole lot of soul with a side of spiritual and we couldn’t have had a better person do this for us.We would recommend Shanda highly!I even asked her to email me everything she had said on the day so I could add it to our wedding book!Thank you once again - we will treasure the memories forever more x

Shanda was our celebrant recently and I honestly cannot recommend her enough. She was so friendly and personable yet professional and thorough. She helped us every step of the way and answered all our questions (even while heavily pregnant/ just given birth!). Shanda assisted us in writing our vowels and tailored our ceremony to suit us perfectly. All my guests commented on how great she was and how well she managed to incorporate our personalities into the ceremony. Shanda is a lovely person and amazing celebrant. I am sad that I won't get to see her now the wedding is over haha!

We were honored to have Shanda marry us in November and she made sure it was everything we asked for.When we first caught up to discuss our day we said we wanted a fun, exciting, and loving ceremony where our guests would be emotional with us and it was exactly that.The love story Shanda wrote for us to hear for the first time on the day really was magical, she described our love story perfectly and it was really special to hear it at the same time everyone else did, it made us really be in the moment and feel that love.Shanda was always a message away and very helpful even when it came to things outside of our ceremony, she was always willing to help and give me advice.I could not recommend Shanda enough, if you are looking for a celebrant who goes above and beyond makes your ceremony one of your dreams, Shanda is the one for that.Thank you so much Shanda, love The Parrys xx

If you want a warm, fun, friendly and awesome celebrant, look no further then this beautiful lady.We just got married on the 15th of October 2022 and Shanda was our celebrant. When we met with her when looking for the perfect celebrant, I walked away from our catch up and said to my partner 'I want her to be our celebrant and be our friend haha'.The entire process with her has been smooth, calm and EASY.Shanda made our ceremony everything we wanted it to be and more! Every detail and request was heard, encouraged and actioned with ease. I don't think I could thank her enough for her contribution to our wedding.Thankyou Shanda, Coffee soon? ;)

Shanda have been nothing but a truly SPECTACULAR celebrant ! From the first initial meeting, the process throughout and finally on our very special day!

We found Shanda through a friend who INSISTED we meet her. The way she was describing Shanda, I was almost ready to book and pay without even meeting her.From the moment Luke and I met with Shanda, we knew she was perfect for us. She was so passionate about marrying couples and that was shown by all the helpful tips and advice she gave on things that weren’t even her area to worry about.We had regular contact we Shanda over the year leading up to the wedding. Even know we booked quite early, Shanda made sure she contacted us on occasion to see how our wedding planning was going.Our vows and wedding script were next level. This was one area Luke and I knew we would struggle with as we aren’t the greatest with putting words together. When we got our vow drafts, we were speechless. Everything we wanted to say, but couldn’t get out of our head and onto paper, was suddenly there in writing, perfect.Shanda made sure we were both calm and ready to begin the ceremony. She kept the ceremony so intimate, we forgot that 120 people were standing behind us. The ceremony matched us as a couple so beautifully and our family and friends complemented our choice of celebrant all night!We are sad that we won’t need Shanda’s services again, but I will be recommending her to every person planning a wedding, and hope that we get to bump into her at another wedding, one day!Thank you so much Shanda. We are so grateful for you.Mr & Mrs Santoro xxx

Shanda was our celebrant for our wedding in November. She is kind and genuine and was a great support person to have on the day and the days before and after! Throughout the whole process she was amazing! She answered our questions, provided us suggestions or help whenever we needed it and guided us through the process of preparing for the big day.When it came to the ceremony, we were both amazed at the beautiful script she put together. She captured everything we had hoped for. Our guests commented on how beautiful the script, and detailed love story was, and how fun and enjoyable the ceremony was.I HIGHLY recommend Shanda as your celebrant!
