Ballarat Marriage Celebrant Kate Ritchie-Sexton

Kate recently officiated our wedding and was absolutely incredible! From the outset, Kate was efficient in her responses to emails and provided us with all of the information we needed. From our first meeting with Kate we knew we had made the right choice. Kate got to know us over a small period of time and was able to draft the most perfect ceremony and was so considerate in ensuring she included the most important people in our lives, including those who have passed.Kate pushed herself through an injury to be present for our rehearsal and ceremony, even calling upon her husband to help set up her equipment, with nobody knowing just how injured she was! All the while making it look so natural and effortless, and checking in with us to make sure there was nothing else that she could do to help us on our day. We received such positive feedback from our family and friends about our ceremony, all attributing to just how incredible Kate is as a celebrant!Thank you Kate for making our ceremony so special and our own! We truly appreciate having such a unique experience and having you marry us. Xxx

Have worked with Kate many times, both for weddings and funerals. Kate is extremely professional, a great sense of humour, well organised and her services, whether funeral or wedding, are excellent. So much time and thought goes into every service. Kate now focuses on weddings exclusively and while the funeral industry will miss her greatly, the wedding scene is very lucky to have her. Love her work.

My new wife and I had the absolute pleasure if Kate joining us into matrimony. Despite a difficult lead up for us Kate supported us through the process and made our day truly memorable. She calmed our nerves and knew exactly what we wanted with only a little input from us. Could not thank her enough or recommend her highly enough.

Kate was an absolute dream to work with and made our ceremony very stress-free, special and personal. All of our guests were commenting on how great Kate was too! During our ceremony rehearsal, Kate helped my partner and I piece together the final logistics and we are very grateful for her help. Highly recommend working with the lovely Kate!

Kate was absolutely fabulous, we had some unconventional requests of her and nothing was too much trouble. Kate came to our home and made the legal component of our wedding so intimate and lovely (the main event was held separately). It was a delight to have you there as part of our nuptials!

We used Kate Richie Sexton for our marriage on Saturday 21st of Jan 2023. Kate was cool, calm and very collected as both myself and my beautiful new hubby were very nervous. Kate was very funny and made the whole experience at ease and a joy. It was the best day of my life and would encourage everyone to use her on your fabulous wedding day. (Even if there's tears by the groom, she can have a joke and make the day run very smoothly.) We both enjoyed the day and were very glad we chose Kate as she is the best in the business.Ez Sevior.

We recently had Kate as our celebrant and could not be more thrilled with the balance of professionalism and down to earth fun that Kate brings to the day. She made us feel comfortable from the first point of contact up until the day. Our guests commented on Kates ceremony and many giggles were had throughout our time together. So glad we got the chance to work with Kate, we really connected with her from the start, being complete novices, Kate helped us structure the day and understand the whole process better, she is passionate about what she does and keeps it real. I highly recommend Kate for your big day

We had the absolute pleasure of having Kate marry us at our ceremony. We had a lot of feedback from family and friends that commented on her, common things mentioned was how good she was, she kept it intimate, interactive and made it flow. Kate was excellent to work with, she made suggestions and spoke about her experiences to help create a magical wedding day that we will never forget.

Where do we begin to speak about our experience with Kate. Well, if she wasn't our Celebrant, she would've fitted in perfectly as one of our guests.Right from our first meeting with Kate everything has been perfect. She explained every step of the way, she had fantastic communication, and was able to calm the Bride (me) when I went into a panic about the weather!Kate is very professional in every aspect. She is caring, relaxed, patient and was able to read our guests exceptionally well, showing how in tune and amazing she is at her job. She included all of our guests and made everyone feel comfortable. A lot of our guests raved about her, so it was clear that everyone's experience with Kate on the day was incredible. You will not find a better Celebrant.Kate was the reason the day started amazing and ended the same way. She set the day perfectly! All in all, Kate is an amazing and kind hearted woman. You can't go wrong with Kate Ritchie-Sexton.
