Nerida was very friendly, professional and informative. She really made our day special. She explained the whole process to us in an easy to understand way. I would recommend her to anyone who wishes to marry. Your day, like ours, will be remembered for a lifetime.       Wayne & Olive- April 2018   

We were thrilled when Michael's childhood school friend Nerida Blackford agreed to be our Celebrant when we married on a glorious Nambucca Heads headland on 15/9/2018. Over nearly 10 months, Nerida led us professionally through the planning process- all the paperwork, deciding on the format of our ceremony, and suggestions to assist composing our vows.
The outcome was a perfect ceremony tailored just for us and a memorable wedding for our families and friends.
We would heartily recommend Nambucca Valley "Magical Moments" to make yours a special occasion.

 “When choosing your celebrant you want that person to make you feel comfortable and relay all the excitement and happiness through the ceremony and Nerida did absolutely that! We would recommend her to anyone as she was so helpful and patient, giving us ideas and making every part of the ceremony personal made our day that much more special.”

We really had the most amazing day, Nerida was so considerate of our personal choices and was fantastic. We loved that Nerida suggested ideas along the way as well.

 Communication was outstanding and the pricing is second to none!

We can highly recommend Nerida for any couple who is looking for an amazing Celebrant to share their day with.                                                    Naomi & Joshua  February 2019

I would highly recommend Nerida for your marriage celebrant. Nerida made the ceremony go very smoothly and hassle free, also checking to see if everything was OK with us. Nerida made us feel very welcomed and calm on the big day. Nerida goes above and beyond in any way she can to help make your wedding day very special.

Nerida was lovely to work with and she created a ceremony that suited us perfectly. She was very knowledgable about the legal requirements and gave us heaps of examples of wording for different parts of the ceremony.
She takes the time to get to know her clients and the vendors that you use in order to make the day run smoothly! I highly recommend Nerida as a Marriage Celebrant.

Dear Nerida

Thank you for the wonderful job you did before and during our backyard wedding on Feb 29! Your prompt communication, willingness to listen to what we were comfortable with and flexibility of fitting in with our plans was greatly appreciated!! Your friendly manner when you came to our house to discuss what we wanted and the opportunity for us to edit the draft made your involvement stress free and very pleasant.

We were particularly grateful for your flexibility on the day as we transferred our motorcycles from the procession to our garden archway and then required a large amount of time for our deeply important Aboriginal Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony. Your patience and sense of humour fitted perfectly with our casual wedding, but I’m sure you could adapt to any wedding situation with grace and genuine caring!

We will certainly be recommending your services to anyone we happen to come across who is getting married. At our age, that is not a lot, but you were the perfect choice for us. Thanks again!!

PS Rob said “Great day, well done!”.                                     Kerry & Rob        February 2020
