Testimonials – Glennys Logan Marriage Celebrant

Glennys! We finally have some time to breathe now...  Jeez it's a whirlwind isn't it?  THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE BEST CEREMONY EEVVVVVVVEEER! I had so many people come up to me and say it was 100% the best ceremony they've ever been to... and so much of that was down to you...  You're so eloquent, emotionally on point and professional. The way you took control at the rehearsal and got everything sorted in less than an hour was impressive...  I know it's hard when people are excited and not listening!  You're an absolute star and I will recommend you always. Thank you for making our day so special, I am so very thankful we found you.  It. Was. Perfect.

Glennys, Thank you so much.  Our wedding day was amazing, perfect in every aspect.  We're so thankful for everything you did for us, you are amazing at what you do and so many people commented on your professionalism, friendly persona and your ability to engage everyone in the ceremony the way that you did. One of our guests even said they will be flying you out to Australia when it's time for them to get married 🙂 You complemented everything perfectly, our ceremony ran smoothly and you helped us both relax so we could enjoy and take in the moment. It was such a pleasure to meet you and we feel very privileged to have had you facilitate our marriage ceremony.  We will send you pictures when we have them 🙂 Once again, thank you so much for your time and efforts in ensuring a special part of our day ran perfectly. Steve and Chris xo

Hi Glennys! We just wanted to say the most massive thank you for everything you did to make our wedding all that we hoped it would be. You provided so much wonderful advice on preparing our ceremony, readings and vows that the day was nothing short of magical. We aren't big criers but I've never felt so much love in one place than when we were honouring past loved ones and exchanging our promises that we couldn't help but tear up - and we noticed we weren't the only ones! You delivered all our little inside jokes perfectly and had everyone laughing and smiling the whole way through. Your enthusiasm was infectious and we were so grateful for your thoughtfulness in the lead-up and right through to the end of the. You made the whole experience so personal and we cannot say how very glad we are to have found you as our celebrant. I hope everyone who marries in Central Otago is as lucky as we were to be able to have you as officiate our wedding Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts. Phillip and Erin Laas

Hi Glennys, Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding day on Thursday. It was such an amazing day for Mel and I. I think we're only just coming back down to earth now. You helped to make our ceremony unique and special and we can't thank you enough for that. We thought that organising a wedding from another country was going to be a nightmare but it wasn't and in the end the ceremony was everything that the two of us had dreamed for. Thank you again. Much love, Mel and Renee.

Hi Glennys, Thank you for facilitating a beautiful ceremony for us!! Thank you for all your kind words and effort in to making the ceremony so sweet that our friends are still speaking of it. There weren't a whole heap of dry eyes that I saw when I was greeting everyone after the ceremony, which is what we were hoping for. I wish I had found the time to stop and hold your hands and give my sincere thanks to you....followed by a big hug. Everything about the ceremony was such a pleasure and all your ideas offered forward were spot on. The poem at the start was so sweet, the wine ceremony totally us to a tee, and your words flowed beautifully. Thank you for our sweet pack at the end too, such a nice touch 🙂 Please accept our sincere and enormous thanks for all your work and your beautiful soul. LOVED every part of our day 🙂 Much love & thanks from James & I xo

Dear Glennys, I know this is a little belated, but Chris & I would like to thank the most important person on our magical wedding day, our beautiful, genuine & wonderful wedding celebrant Glennys! Glennys we can never thank you enough! You will forever be close to both of our hearts, thank you for sharing the lead up to our special day, the most important part of our special day with us our ceremony & thank you for helping to make our wedding day the best day of our lives, something we will never, ever forget. We shared with you our most personal & private feelings & emotions, our life together & most importantly our life long vows. We were very fussy when choosing a celebrant for our special day because the ceremony was the most important part of our wedding, we wanted to make it special, personal & heartfelt & we thought this would be hard to do having a complete stranger conduct our ceremony, but from the first time we met you in January we knew that we chose the best celebrant in all of New Zealand for us & we have walked away as lifelong friends.  So we just wanted to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU Glennys from the bottom of our hearts for helping to make our magical day, the best day of our lives!!! Without you, it wouldn’t have been so special! 🙂 xoxoxoxox Heidi & Chris Hodge

Hi Glennys, Thank you so much for the fantastic job you did running everything at our ceremony! Everything was really professional yet light and fun and we had several people comment on how great a job you did in setting the tone and making sure everything moved ahead as it should. We both also appreciated your efforts in putting together our lovely ceremony, which, again, many people commented on how beautiful it was.  We had a great time getting married and you were a big part of that. So, thank you. We are just passing through Cromwell on our way north so I was thinking of you and wanted to say hello. Lots of love, Rach & Mel

Hello Glennys, We are still speechless at how lucky we were on Saturday. The comments we have been given are so wonderful and whilst tired we are absolutely thrilled. Our day was so special and very emotional, the ceremony was stunningly beautiful and your words express so much love it was hard not to cry. We are very happy with the whole day it truly was perfect. Glennys sharing our day with you was an absolute pleasure and we are so honoured that you were able to express our life and love with our friends and family. Thank you so much Glennys you are a very special lady to us! Love, Mr and Mrs Eichstaedt xxxx

Dear Glennys, Thank you sooo much for all your help and support Glennys, for coming in last minute and working out our amazing ceremony and keeping on top of things! Anyone that comes along looking to be married down south, we couldn't recommend anyone else to officiate their ceremony. It is clearly a passion for you, and we couldn't be more thankful for having the pleasure of having our marriage solemnised by you. Kind regards, Nick and Jhovaan

Hello Glennys, We wanted to say a huge thank you for being our celebrant! We were so happy with our ceremony, and loved being able to tweak it to our liking before the wedding. We had so many comments from guests about our wonderful ceremony, which is all a testament to you! Thank you again! Nicole and Richard

Hi Glennys, Thank you so much for being our celebrant. We had an awesome day and enjoyed the ceremony you put together for us very much. We just want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making it feel so special 🙂 Ashley and Richie Mee 🙂

Thank you Glennys! I wanted to say thank you for being so helpful and organised in the lead up to our big day - you had us feeling so relaxed - and for doing such a wonderful job on the day. Our ceremony was perfect, it really did reflect us as a couple and how we were feeling in that moment. Thank you again ! Our warmest regards Seth & Bri Burbury x

Glennys we are so fortunate to have found you and to have you with us on our special day - we really felt like you "got" us from minute one, and we were right.  Thank you for rolling with us on some late additions and just making everything come together so perfectly. The way it all came together was beautiful and just what we had imagined - MUCH thanks to you. And the Sean wine ceremony really brought the house down - we knew it would be special but ended up being the real talk of the ceremony "finale"... Really happy about that! 🙂 Thank you again, truly – Jana and Paddy

Hi Glennys, Thanks so much for being an amazing celebrant!!  I loved our ceremony, it was full of love with just enough fun to keep it interesting without distracting from the seriousness of vowing to love each other forever!  Our guests loved it too, especially the duck with the 7 ducklings coming to watch at the lakes edge.  I soaked up every minute of our ceremony and enjoyed it more than I thought possible.  It is a once in a life time experience and I am so grateful that you were our celebrant to guide us and facilitate such an important moment of our lives. Also thanks for running the rehearsal ceremony. I was pretty stressed that day and it was nice to be around your positive and professional energy! HUGE THANKS!! Anna & Ricky

Hi Glennys Thanks so much for helping our day be so special. Everything went perfectly. We had a great time and so did all the guests. Thanks for all your help and assistance in making it go so brilliantly. It was a great day - we will remember forever. Thanks again. Sarah & Craig

Hi Glennys, You delivered the most perfect ceremony we could have asked for. Thanks so much for all your help in the lead up to the big day. Everyone loved the chopper fly by!! We most certainly have the most love ever for each other!!!! Brett and Felicity

Glennys, Thank you so much for our wonderful ceremony! We loved every minute of the day, it was so perfect. We can't thank you enough for helping to make our day what it was. We will send through some pictures when we have them too. As well as recommend you to anyone who is thinking of getting married in New Zealand! We are off on the honeymoon tomorrow! Can't wait!! Thanks again, Tessa and Brodie

Hi Glennys Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making it such a wonderful ceremony. Many friends said to me after they didn't even cry at their own wedding but did at ours! Everyone thought you were great. Thanks again. Jen and Mark xx

Hi Glennys, Marie here (I’m Kim's Mum…..) You married her and Leon at the Orchard Garden in Clyde on Waitangi Day this year. Just wanted to say you were utterly fantastic – put people at ease, friendly and made a great effort to mingle with people, and gave Kim and Leon the superb ceremony they both wanted. I looked around and saw many grown men wiping their eyes as I thought it was a wonderful, caring, emotional ceremony (wiped my own eyes a few times). I’ve never been to a wedding (and yes, I guess we are biased) where so many people told me afterward it was the best wedding they’d ever been to – commented on how beautiful the bride was (she was), how great you were, and how personal the ceremony was. So take a huge bow – you did an amazing job. Again, huge thanks for making their/our day such an incredibly special one. Warmest wishes, Marie

Hi Glennys! We honestly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day! We can't fault anything at all - it was more than what we could have ever dreamt of!! Thank you so much for being our celebrant - you have been amazing right from the start!! The ceremony was beautiful! We will definitely send through photos when we get them from Alpine. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Nicole & Craig xoxo

Glennys dear, We are finally back in Jakarta and reunited with our little ones Boxer and Luna. I never did get a chance to tell you how much you made our wedding unforgettable and despite the challenges the weather was posing. You were totally awesome and I will be delighted to recommend you to anyone planning to get married in the area! Once again, thank you so very much from Richard, myself as well as our guests who thought you were fabulous! Much love & affection, Aaron and Richard

Good Morning Glennys, We hope you are well. On behalf of myself and Kate I just wanted to say a big thank you for making our day extra special. You exceeded all of our expectations with your warm personality and professionalism we couldn’t have asked for any more. This was also a common theme in the comments we received from our guests. We wish you all the best in your future endeavours and thank you again. Warmest Regards Barry & Kate

Glennys!!! Thank you so much for giving us the most amazing ceremony. I couldn’t have hand selected anyone better to perform our ceremony! You just understood what we wanted and we loved every minute of it . T H A N K   Y O U ! The day was absolutely perfect! The weather just added to the adventure and it turned out beautifully! Thank you so much for being a part of our special day. The experience was absolutely incredible and we cannot thank you enough. Tracey and Laura xx

Hi Glennys, We had the most magical day - I couldn't fault one thing! It was truly what I've always dreamt of. So many of our guests mentioned to me how they absolutely loved the way you presented the ceremony and that it was perfectly written for us. One guest even said, "I love the way Glennys remembered our names and spoke to us like she has known us all -  she felt like an Aunty Glennys, not just a celebrant" and I couldn't agree more with that comment! It felt so personal and I think that made us feel so much more relaxed and truly enjoy each second of the ceremony. We've had such an amazing time in Queenstown - what a way to start married life! One more day of adventures tomorrow before we fly home to Aus on Wednesday. I will share some photos as soon as I receive them. Again, thank you for assisting in giving us the wedding of our dreams. Mr & Mrs Ingram xx (Elise and Dale)

Good afternoon Glennys, I wanted to send an email before we have received our photos to thank you for the incredible ceremony you planned and facilitated. We honestly could not have imagined a more perfect day, in fact, it exceeded all of our expectations - and they were high! You were a huge part of that. It is funny to think we met for the first time at the alter because you spoke as if you were a lifelong friend and that meant the world to us and our families. I'm not sure I can adequately articulate our gratitude but please know that we feel very blessed that our paths crossed during the planning of this special day. Looking forward to sharing photos with you once they arrive. Much love and thanks again, Kate and Jordan x

Hi Glennys, On behalf of my wife Angela, I'd like to say a big, big thank you for being our celebrant on our wedding day. Our other vendors all spoke highly of you beforehand, and I can definitely see why.  Everything was very professional and very well done, and you just made things so easy for us. We are very lucky to have such a lovely and amazing Celebrant, and we'll be sure to share with you some of the photos. Best regards, James and Angela

Dear Glennys, Our wedding on Coromandel Peak was perfect from the start to the end. We loved the way you made the wedding, the words were just perfect. You made our day special. We cannot imagine a better ceremony. Your warm hearted and loving nature is amazing. But the rest of the day was also great: It was funny that our first German well-wishers on the way back to Queenstown was Steven Gätjen - a very famous television presenter from Germany. We met him in a traffic jam and there was a traffic jam because a complete house drove across the street ... (in Germany, no houses are driven across the street). Later the day when we parked in Queenstown, a stranger gave us his internship for free. The first restaurant had no table for us, so we moved on and in the next we got the best table and a super delicious meal. The sunset was amazingly beautiful. I wouldn’t even dreamed of such a beautiful day - it‘s crazy in an awesome way... Many thanks for everything and of course we will send you the photos of our wedding. Love Monika and Dominik xx

Good Evening Glennys, What can we say? We are still on cloud 9 since yesterday, which was from start to finish, absolutely fantastic and perfect in each and every way! We cannot thank you enough for being our celebrant. Your flair and character made us embrace the ceremony wholeheartedly and made it all the more special! I am sure our friends and family back home and here in NZ will agree! You truly made the occasion for us! We thoroughly enjoyed Bistro Gentil and have just viewed the first few sample photos that Ruth has produced. There are some really stunning pics there already which we will be glad to share with you once we see the finished album. Anyway once again thank you so, so much and we will be in touch again after we return home at some point. Gordon and Debbie Peebles

Dearest Glennys, Thank you for helping to make our wedding day the best day of our lives. From start to finish the day was filled with love, fun, surprises and laughter. You were true, authentic, supportive and perfect for us. You were so accommodating which allowed and encouraged us to make this the day we wanted. The beautiful energy you brought to our day is something we will never forget. Jo & Ben Facey xxx

Glennys, Words cannot express how thankful we are to you. You were amazing. Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding so beautiful. We couldn't have dreamed for a better celebrant and guide into matrimony. So many of our bridal party and family commented on how great you were, and we had so much fun with you at the rehearsal too. Thanks for making us feel confident and secure at the wedding. Your part in it was an absolute gift. Thanks again, Alanna & Michael Gorin xxx

Hello Glennys! We are finally back at work - still feeling rather jet lagged! We were so blessed and grateful to have you as our Celebrant - Glennys, you were so genuine, so passionate about what your work, both of us felt it during our ceremony. You are amazing! You made our ceremony and experience complete 🙂 Dinner at Botswana was great and delightful, went to Wanaka, Tekapo and Mt. Cook after - sceneries were amazing! Grace & Jeremy xx

Dearest Glennys, Lachlan and I just wanted to reach out to you again and thank you for making our wedding day so special. When first meeting you at the airport, Lachlan and I were both so nervous! But your friendly smile and caring nature helped us to calm down and be present in the moment. The ceremony you designed for us was so heartfelt and beautiful. Your delivery was also so full of love, which is exactly what we wanted. Thank you so much for printing and laminating our vows, as well as giving us a copy of our ceremony as a keepsake. Both our parents and grandparents very much enjoyed reading it, even commenting that it is much better than watching a video because you aren't distracted by the surroundings, but that you can truly appreciate the words. Now that we are home back in Sydney, we have the rocks you collected for us from Lake Lochnagar on our bookshelf, next to a picture of our engagement (and soon to be wedding picture!) Thank you so much for making our day amazing. We truly appreciate all the effort you put in to make our ceremony special. Ashlea & Lachlan

Glennys, Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding day the best day of our lives! Right from the first day we met you we loved your energetic, bubbly personality, and the interest you showed in getting to know us and our relationship. Your communication in perfecting our ceremony before the big day and making wee suggestions here and there to help us write our vows was much appreciated. On the day we felt so much more at ease knowing that you would be there to guide us through the ceremony and make sure there were plenty of smiles as well as happy tears shed by us as well as all of our guests. We had a lot of comments about how good you are at your job by our guests and photographer, and I couldn't agree more. You are the perfect person to be a marriage celebrant and we couldn't have wished for anyone better. Thanks again! Katie and Hunter

Glennys we can’t thank you enough for your guidance and support from the first contact up until the day. We credit the smooth running of the day to you, even with the challenge of the helicopters making noise! (hehe). Thanks a million! Jazz and Mat Enright xoxo

Hi Glennys, Tristan and I wanted to pass on our thanks to you for the incredible job you did with our wedding ceremony. Being two nervous grooms we were so delighted to fall into the hands of a calm, elegant, confident and competent wedding celebrant. We asked for a light and bright ceremony with a lot of heart and you really delivered beyond our expectations. Each of our guest commented that it was one of the best ceremonies they had ever been to, how personal it felt and what a graceful job you did overseeing it. We feel so blessed to have had, who we were told is, the best wedding celebrant in the area! We saw first hand how you managed to gain such a stellar reputation. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Lots of love, Tristan and Gary
