"Louise officiated at at our daughter's wedding in September 2021 (3rd attempt after 2 Covid cancellations!) The ceremony was wonderful and Louise had clearly spent a lot of time finding out what makes Charley and Andy's relationship so special. It was all very personal and conducted with plenty of humour. Our guests loved it, as did we. It was just the perfect day, and Louise played a pivotal part in this.
Many thanks, and we would thoroughly recommend Louise to anyone who is looking for a personally-tailored, fun-filled, kickass wedding ceremony xx"
"If you're looking for a fun, relaxed, UNIQUE and meaningful ceremony which will have your guests laughing, crying and getting to really know the couple that stands before them...look no further.
Louise has an incredible ability to bring to life your relationship; from how you met, what keeps you together, what you look forward to in the future and what makes you the unique couple you are...it'll feel like you've know her for years.
We got so many amazing comments at our wedding about how relaxed our ceremony was. We had guests attend who weren't interested in getting married - until they witnessed a Humanist ceremony.
Where else can you combine Scottish and Greek traditions - sipping on whisky, a crown ceremony and involving your friends and family to name a few!!!
Louise provides just the right amount of support and guidance to shape a ceremony that fits your personalities.
I would recommend her (and I have!) again and again. It'll be the best money you spend on your wedding day!!!"
"We contacted Louise after our original celebrant couldn't make our new date and it was utter fate!
Right from the beginning, Louise made us feel confident and our zoom calls where always fun and felt like chatting with a friend. Before the big day, Louise sent us the script and we laughed and cried.
As an English teacher, it is clear that Louise has a way with words and she delivered it with perfect timing and personality on the day; all our guests said it was the best ceremony they'd ever been to and she captured our love story perfectly.
Here's to cancelled celebrants and finding the one :)"
"What a delight!!
Louise was fabulous throughout the whole process. We originally booked Louise for our first date in June 2020, then again for June 2021 and finally in September 2021 and the communication between the numerous date changes was excellent.
We love the relaxed, personal and informal approach that a celebrant brings and Louise tailored each part of our ceremony to suit us exactly - it was the perfect mix of laughs and emotional moments!
Both ourselves and our guests loved it. We thank you so much Louise, as it was the perfect way to begin the best day of our lives! Charley and Andy X"
"We had a normal legal "boring" ceremony during Covid with 13 of our close family but we still wanted to celebrate with our friends and family when things improved, we looked at getting a celebrant, from the moment of seeing Louise's Instagram profile we knew she was the one for us, everything was handled very professionally and Louise was always available answering any questions promptly and honestly.
The ceremony was so personal, warm and friendly, there were tears(the good sort) and much laughter. Everyone of our guests loved the ceremony and said it made such a change from the normal and found it amazing.
I would encourage anyone to use Louise for their ceremony."
"My sister recommended Louise to us for our wedding and we couldn't be happier with the service she provided for us. Everyone at the ceremony said how beautiful and amazing it was and that it was the best ceremony they have been to.
Louise told our story so well and everything went by beautifully. Our personalized vow cards (with a little shiba on!) are lovely and we will keep them forever. I am looking forward to rewatching the ceremony on video.
Would definitely recommend Louise to anyone getting married, much MUCH better & personal than any boring legal ceremony. I loved how personal & special the ceremony was, we will never forget our perfect day so thank you for being part of it <3 definitely recommend Kickass Gatherings! x
"Louise is absolutely incredible! If you want a wedding ceremony that is 100% personalized to you then kickass gatherings is what you need!
She goes above and beyond to create the perfect ceremony.
We had the best day of our lives and our wedding was perfect for us because of Louise!"
"Louise was absolutely perfect for our wedding. We actually hadn’t originally chosen to have a celebrant at our wedding - it was because of covid and changes to our dates that meant there was no Registrar available… but honestly it must of been FATE! I’m a true believer that everything happens for a reason, and we couldn’t of asked for more.
After our ceremony we had so many of our guests comment on how much they loved to hear our story, how personal it was, funny and exciting!
Guests asked - was Louise a friend of ours?
It came across as though she had known us for years! Some guests even said they want a humanist wedding after being at our ceremony!
Louise captured the essence of our relationship incredibly and it was everything we imagined and more! And ‘The Suit’ was saved especially for us- she rocked it and fit right in with our tropical theme (see Insta profile pic 😜)
We can’t thank you enough Louise, for being such a legend! #celebrantgoals"
"Luke and I were honoured to have Louise marry us!
From our initial planning meeting - through to the ceremony itself - Louise was such a pleasure to work with. She gathered our details, and made a beautiful love story, which our friends and family loved hearing. This was so much more than a standard wedding ceremony.
Having been to so many weddings - this felt such an intimate, personal way of exchanging our vows.
We wouldn’t change a thing.
Thanks so much to Louise for such an
incredible, memorable and sentimental experience. We will forever cherish this memory!
Jess & Luke
