your love story deserves a ceremony everyone will feel
(in their waters)-not just hear
WHY DOES YOUR
LOVE STORY MATTER?
Standing at the Church altar with Vincent, reciting the same words as thousands before us, I realised—our love story, our journey, deserved its own moment in the spotlight [especially with how hilariously it played out!]. Our ceremony was beautiful and the traditions meaningful, but it wasn’t us. And that’s when it hit me—sharing your story on your wedding day, isn’t just important, it’s EVERYTHING.
Your story isn’t a background detail—it’s the very reason you’re standing there, making this commitment. And when couples let me weave their story into their ceremony, there’s a shift. Suddenly, it’s not just another wedding—it’s your wedding. The kind that has guests laughing, crying, and feeling every moment.
Your wedding isn’t an event—it’s an experience.
Because when a story is told well (i.e. by moi), it creates a feeling that goes beyond words. It’s a moment of connection, shared emotion, of nostalgia, of love in its purest form. The energy in the room changes. The tears well, the cheeks ache from smiling, and the love is felt.
And that’s why I do what I do—to craft a ceremony that isn’t just memorable, but truly unforgettable. Not just for you, but for everyone lucky enough to share in it.
At the very heart of it all, I write and share creative and heartfelt love stories about glorious humans...
…So, what’s your story?
THE SARAHMONY.
THIS IS WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS.
No stale energy. No fluff. No "insert couple’s names here" scripts. Just a Sarahmony that feels like you—completely original, full of heart, and with the perfect balance of humour and sincerity. I craft each Sarahmony from scratch, turning your story into something that has your guests hooked from the first word to the last, laughing one moment and wiping away a tear the next.
~ In the storytelling realm, the ‘meet-cute’ is the amusing, charming, or serendipitous way in which two characters cross paths for the first time ~
Your meet-cute, though possibly fleeting, serves as the catalyst that steered you toward committing to a lifetime of love. That’s why your meet-cute is the undisputed highlight for me. Whether it unfolded as a quirky twist of fate, an awkward hello, love at first swipe, or a slow-burn evolution from mates to soulmates—these are the nuances that give your story an unmistakably individual vibe.
Love stories are never one-size-fits-all. Maybe yours is loud and full of wild adventures, maybe it’s steady and deeply grounded, or maybe it’s an unexpected mix of both—but they all deserve to be honoured and told with authenticity.
Every single minute of your Sarahmony is intentionally curated—the pauses, the pace, the flow. It’s not just about the words (although those are extremely important), it’s about how they land. The knowing looks between you, the way your guests lean in, the shift in the room when laughter gives way to something deeper. It’s about creating a moment so immersive, so enjoyable, so very WHOLESOME that everyone forgets to check their watch because they’re too busy feeling it.
Every Sarahmony is built from the ground up, packed with warmth, humour, and just a dash of formalities to make it all legit.
I want to discover why you two go together like Knight and Day, to bring you a Sarahmony that has your guests raving about it long after the confetti settles, one that celebrates your weird quirks and inside jokes, and most importantly, one that feels so completely, undeniably, unequivocally you.

‘Sarah Marie is everything she claims to be, and really, she is more.
As a couple we knew we wanted a ceremony that was fresh, and fun. We didn’t want an overly traditional ceremony but we still wanted the reverence and respect of the occasion. We weren’t sure if that balance could be struck and it was nerve wracking putting our faith in someone, but the cele-of-the-century absolutely delivered for us.
The process for us to get to know each other and to understand not just what we wanted for our ceremony, but who we were as a couple, was fun and it felt like we were trusting a friend with our big day not just a vendor.
Our ceremony was written so well, it was exactly what we wanted, like we had written it ourselves. Without us being able to articulate exactly what we wanted, and without judgment for what we wished to be included or not, Sarah is so good at what she does she interpreted our vision and delivered it perfectly. It was more than the love story we’d provided to her, Sarah had woven in details that we had briefly touched on in casual conversation. It showed just how much she really listens to her couples and deeply understands our stories.
Sarah was so gracious, and so confident on the day. We had full trust that she was in control of the ceremony—which meant we could just enjoy it like we should.
Humble, clever, witty, hardworking. Sarah Marie Celebrancy is the picture-perfect modern celebrant. There’s nothing we could write that could compare to what Sarah wrote for us or capture what she delivered.
If we can finish with one thing, it’s that we recommend her to anyone and everyone who asks, and to anyone who is considering a celebrant - stop here! You’ve found her.’
