Antoinette Coleman-Kelly - Registered Solemniser

Our most magical day was due in large part because of the beauty wisdom and talent of Antoinette Coleman Kelly. From the moment we connected to the consultation meetings to the most special moment of our lives Dec 23 2023, we were lifted honoured and celebrated by Antoinette. Smiles a mile wide and a few tears of joy occurred through back to back blessings, with each detail, each page turn, each reading. Antoinette has such a sacred presence and an open heart it made our wedding truly memorable. Thank you Antoinette. The world is blessed to have you as Celebrant for those lucky couples who find you ! Now back in Canada our voyage to Ireland to be married will be the absolute highlight or our journey ! ????????????

One word - WOW!! We engaged Antoinette for our wedding on 9 September 2023, and she was absolutely incredible. From our first zoom call, we were enchanted by Antoinette - she was so enthusiastic and excited for our ceremony. She was well prepared and shared so many ideas (lots of them very unique) for our ceremony. We had two more zoom calls with Antoinette thereafter in order to finalise our ceremony. She was so informative, and really personalised the ceremony. Myself and my partner were so excited for the ceremony. It exceed all expectations. Antoinette put us at ease, included all our guests in the ceremony, was so reliable and a genuine pleasure to work with. All our guests were raving about the ceremony. We couldn’t have wished for a better celebrant. I have been to a couple of wedding ceremonies myself and maybe I’m being biased… but this ceremony was the best I’ve ever been too! If you are thinking of booking Antoinette - don’t hesitate - you won’t be disappointed.
Thank you so much Antoinette for an incredible ceremony - you made such an impact on us!

Antoinette made our day! She ensured that our wedding ceremony was personal to us, which was something we were very keen on, in preparing for our wedding day. We received so many comments from friends and family following our day that the day and the ceremony was a telling of our story, and how personal it was. This was down to Antoinette. In preparing for our day, we had a number of Zoom Calls with Antoinette, where she ran-through the ceremony in great detail. Here, we were able to construct a ceremony that reflected us, and Antoinette was happy to oblige, bringing in her own special ideas, also. Lastly, Antoinette ensured that neither the groom or bride were nervous beforehand, and put us, and our guests, at ease from the get-go. A wonderful day!

We had the most amazing ceremony with Antoinette. From first contact right through to the wedding day Antoinette made our ceremony so special, memorable & personable to us and our family. She had lots of great ideas for the ceremony & it felt like a truly unique cermony. Would thoroughly recommend Antoinette for your special day and the most memorable experience. Thanks again for a wonderful memory, Jenny & Frankie x

Antoinette was an absolute dream to work with, from our first interaction and all the prep, until the day of, she brought so much nice energy and charisma. Thank you so much!

Totally speechless - comments all day from our guests about how personal the ceremony was and they’ve never been to a wedding like it. Antoinette was helpful, friendly and reassuring throughout the lead up to the wedding. Antoinette got to know us as a couple before the wedding which made us feel more at ease on the day. Would highly recommend, amazing service.

Antoinette, where do I start?? There’s no words to thank her for the amazing ceremony she did for myself and my husband. From the second I rang her to enquire we just knew she was the celebrant for us. Her demeanour is just so uplifting and would instantly put a smile on anyones face. The ceremony she put together for us was just incredible and something we will never forget. Everyone we spoke to afterwards said how amazing it was and how she kept everyone engaged and how the little special touches she created just made it. She created such a unique ceremony that was so different from many weddings ourselves and our guests had been to before. I could ramble on forever about Antoinette and would not hesitate to book her. From the bottom of our hearts Antoinette thank you so much for everything you’ve done.

Well We have to say that you won’t get anyone just like Antoinette absolutely not and were we delighted to have had her. Amazing celebrant. From the beginning getting in touch to our day Antoinette made it all very special. Friendly, bubbly, compassionate, not what she said but how she said it, not what she did but the way she done it. The Ceremony was absolutely so beautiful, emotional but Antoinette made sure we were okay right threw the ceremony. The ribbons, to the poem, the sand, the first drink from cup, the rings and having everyone involved. When we even seem everything she had put so nice for us after the ceremony incredible. We could say and write a lot about Antoinette but look Your Simply The Best Antoinette, truly all our guest spoke highly of you and how much the enjoyed the ceremony. Bravo, Cheers we love you. Hey and whatever couple gets you will not regret it they will be so lucky. Thanks a mill.

A massive thank you to Gabrielle for performing our ceremony earlier this month. She created a perfect atmosphere, really fun and relaxed, and brilliantly told our story to our guests. From our first conversation she was fantastic to deal with and made our choice of celebrant very easy. The resources available on the website (not to mention all the guidance she provided) really helped us personalise the ceremony and make it memorable. She was also extremely helpful on the day, showing up early, speaking to everyone involved in the ceremony to make sure they knew their parts, printing out all the readings and vows, etc.
I lost count of the number of guests that commented on how lovely and special it all was, and how well Gabrielle led it. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Thank you to Antoinette who married my husband Declan and I in August 2022. Antoinette created the perfect wedding ceremony, filled with humour and love. She made all of our guests, family and wedding party feel some welcome and involved.

A huge thank you to Caroline McCarthy for the beautiful ceremony performed for Brendan and I. We had a great day and our guests were all raving about the beautiful ceremony and Caroline's ability to bring humor into it. They thought it the best wedding ceremony they had been at.

To Caroline McCarthy:
Thank you so much Caroline for the fantastic job you did leading our wedding ceremony. On the day you agreed to be our celebrant, you immediately put us at ease by guiding us through the different elements of the ceremony, and with your warmth, sense of humour and kindness you made the preparations enjoyable and hassle-free. We appreciate the time you spent coaching us via zoom, and your openness to all our ideas, such as allowing us to say the speeches and vows in our native language, or dancing our way to the exit! During the ceremony, everything was really professional yet light and fun - several guests told us it was the most personal ceremony they'd ever been to. We had the most amazing time getting married and you were a big part of that. So, thank you once again Caroline, we wish you all the best in the future!

From the moment I made contact with Antoinette I knew instantly she was the celebrant for us. She has a warmth like no other and a calmness that is infectious. I'm not the most organised person and she literally saved the day on many occasions. Reminding me or reasking have I, x y and z done. A dream deal with. Although we had many date changes this was no issue. Reassurance was always plentiful and a gentle reminder always given as to the true meaning of love and that we would get our day no matter what.
On the day anntionette was nothing short of a pure perfectionist. From her magical set up to her outstanding performance on the day. She honestly hand on heart was the topic of many conversations in the day and after. My only regret is on the day I didn't get time to spend a moment with this beautiful soul. The day ran away with us pictures guests etc. But from myself and my husband.... THANK YOU...
You went above and beyond for us and we will never forget it.
I think when you meet such an empowering person they will stay with you forever.
If you are thinking of booking anntionette for your special occasion. Stop thinking and do it.
She is top class at what she does and will definitely go above and beyond for you. She really is a truly magical person....
Love and light
Ciara and Scott

After meeting a few different celebrants over zoom we finally met the perfect one!

Caroline was in a league of her own in comparison to the other celebrants we spoke to. The moment I spoke to Caroline I felt completely at ease about our ceremony, all my worries and concerns flew out the window. Caroline talked us through the whole ceremony and covered every little detail (Caroline even taught us how to walk down the aisle!) She was so easy to talk to and approach and also always easy to contact which was incredibly important. Caroline is not only a lovely woman but a perfectionist at her job. She made sure we had everything we wanted included in our ceremony and helped us to really make it our own personal ceremony. I have been to weddings where the ceremony is obviously copied and pasted for one couple to the next. This is not the case with Caroline, she is just amazing . Everyone at our wedding absolutely adored the ceremony and thought Caroline was just so natural and perfect on the day with a bit of humour thrown in , which helped with the nerves !

Thank you so much Caroline. You are Amazing and we are so grateful that you were part of our special day.

We highly recommend Caroline! I wish I could give her 10 stars not 5!
