Lauretta is simply the nicest, most kind and efficient person you could wish to deal with. We couldn’t have chosen a better celebrant, she’s just a lovely person. Our ceremony was delayed due to me being in hospital on what should’ve been our wedding day. Months of planning came unraveled but Lauretta was amazing and we managed to get married later in the week once I’d been discharged. As we, and a number of guests had travelled from the UK to join family living in Queensland for our wedding, we were up against it time wise and Lauretta played no small part in making it all happen while everyone was still in the country. Thank you Lauretta for being so understanding, for switching dates and venues and accommodating us. You’re simply the best and we will never forget your kindness and compassion in difficult circumstances. xxx
dear Mandy and Duncan - what a beautiful family celebration your wedding day turned out to be. Still on an island (Australia) just not on K'gari ... still in paradise for those of us who live in Queensland! I feel so blessed to have witness you wed as your celebrant. Thank you for having me along! xoxo

Could not have asked for a better celebrant! Lauretta made our ceremony so light hearted and fun which was exactly what we wanted. She was easy to communicate with and helped so much in the lead up to the day.
Dear Jacinda - it was such a pleasure to marry you and Lindsay in front of your family and friends, together with you best dog-of-honour who was your ring bearer. It was an awesome celebration, and I thank you for having me along as your celebrant. Thanks so much!

We had the pleasure of having Lauretta as our celebrant for our intimate elopement. From the very start, we were just comfortable with her. The communication was effortless and clear. There are times when the emails felt like text messages, so quick, especially when you catch her on the computer (like I did) 😆. The paperwork was easy. She expertly guided us with the ceremony and gave us ideas on how the flow would be. Aside from the formal things that needed to be said, everything was done from scratch. She took time to know us both and independently, and our ceremony script came to life because of that. Everything was enjoyable and memorable as Lauretta was part of our journey. We would most definitely recommend having Lauretta on board. Thank you so much, Lauretta. With much love from miserable Melbourne weather, Kaye & Nicko PS I don’t think we’ve gotten proper photo or selfie with you. 🙈🥺
Thank you so much for your kind review Kaye! I so enjoyed being part of your wedding celebrations with Nicko. You two were filled with so much joy! It was infectious! Thank you both for inviting me along to share such a special day on K'gari, in paradise.

We were absolutely thrilled to have Lauretta Wright from Wright Celebrations as our celebrant for our wedding on October 4th, 2025. From the very first meeting, Lauretta’s warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made us feel completely at ease. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted a ceremony that was personal, heartfelt, and perfectly “us.” Every word she spoke reflected our story beautifully, and she brought such joy, humour, and sincerity to the day. Lauretta made the whole process so easy — from guiding us through the paperwork to ensuring everything ran seamlessly on the day. Our guests couldn’t stop commenting on how engaging and meaningful the ceremony was. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant to share this special moment with us. Thank you, Lauretta, for making our day so magical and memorable. We’ll cherish it forever. With love, Mr & Mrs Baker 💍💖
Oh what a grand celebration and your beautiful home your marriage ceremony was! So so much joy and love for you both as your married. It was an honour too to see you wed. Big congrats, and thank you for inviting me along to officiate. Thanks you!

Lauretta was such a breeze to do business with (more like make magic). She was there every step along the way and went far beyond any expectations I had of what I had expected from a celebrant. On top of that, she speaks so beautifully and warm. It really set the mood for our beautiful wedding. We are so thankful.
Dear Ashleigh, It was an absolute honour to be part of your incredible wedding celebrations on K'gari! What a fantastic gathering of love and joy, all wrapped around you and Michael. Thank you so much for having me as your celebrant — it was truly a privilege.

Lauretta was and absolute pleasure to work with. Her experience, knowledge of ceremony traditions was invaluable. From first meet, we felt comfortable and in good hands with Lauretta's kind, bubbly and relaxed nature. Lauretta composed a beautiful script and vows which were customised to suit our personalities and preferences. On our wedding day we also saw last minute rain and Lauretta remained very flexible and open to quick changes. She will be part of very fond memories of the day. Thank you Lauretta
Thank you Scott and Mel! It was my pure pleasure. Yes, it rained, didn't it! Yet, that did not put a damper on the ceremony. A quick location change, and your families gathered, and it was ever so lovely! It was a privilege to share in your wedding celebrations. Lauretta

We couldn’t be happier with Lauretta Wright from Wright Celebrations as our wedding celebrant. From the moment we first contacted her, she provided incredible support and guidance throughout the entire planning process. Lauretta’s professionalism was evident in everything she did, and she ensured every detail was covered, making the lead-up to our big day smooth and stress-free. During the ceremony, she was engaging, warm, and bubbly, creating a beautiful, memorable atmosphere for us and our guests. Lauretta’s knowledge of ceremony structures, rituals, and personal touches was invaluable, and she worked with us to craft a ceremony that truly reflected our relationship and personalities. Her approachable and friendly nature made us feel completely at ease, and we knew we were in great hands. We highly recommend Lauretta for anyone looking for a celebrant who is not only highly professional but also personable, engaging, and passionate about making your special day unforgettable!
Maddi :) it was such a great day for me too! Best crowd of wedding guests yet - so full of joy for you both. Thanks for having me. Lauretta

Thank you so much Lauretta for making the ceremony as short as possible. I'm an introvert and i get social anxiety around people so we requested a very short ceremony and i'm very grateful she let us have that. she was very professional and organised, not to mention very friendly and funny. It was a perfect day even when it rained thank you Lauretta for a stress free wedding! :) -Andrew and Jenny
Hi Jenny - thank you for your kind review. Short and sweet, elopement done! I'm glad the rain missed us, making it a perfectly perfect ceremony. Lauretta
