What our graduates have to say!
There’s no better way to get a feel for the quality of our courses and qualifications and how well they prepare you for being a celebrant than to hear from others who have already graduated.
Below are just a few samples of the feedback that we’ve received from our graduates over the years.
I have attended plenty of training courses in Australia, Asia and North America both technical and professional and this course was exceptional and one of the best I have attended. Our trainer did an amazing job of delivering this course and sharing her experiences with everyone. I will recommend the Academy to anyone who wants to become a celebrant.
Pauline Price (MC)
I have wanted to be a marriage celebrant for many years, however thought it was too expensive — until I found the Academy of Celebrancy Australia®. It is not only affordable, it is timely and fun! I would highly recommend the Academy as a preferred trainer.
Jo Mooney (MC)
I am writing to thank you very much for the professionalism and help that was put into the course. The literature was second-to-none — very easy to understand and to help carry out assignments. The very friendly but disciplined way the course was run. Being one of the oldest in the group my fears of being too old were definitely ungrounded. I quickly felt at ease by the way a good atmosphere ascended over the course and made the learning very pleasant. I would like to congratulate The Academy of Celebrancy Australia® in making the course a Great Experience. I would definitely recommend this course.
Terence Edhouse (MC)
This course was real value to me, the activities set up my basis for my celebrant’s practice. I will use the information e.g.: how to set up interviews, order of wedding ceremony, ethics etc. as a great reference for the future. I’ve kept these activities in a folder, as they given me a strong direction and of what is expected of a celebrant. As I progressed through the activities all the pieces of the course just came together seamlessly. The Trainers were very helpful and didn’t put you down if you couldn’t understand, just gently gave guidance. It is a wonderful option for people who live in the country and do not have access to the same services as the city. Thank you.

I am happy to publicly endorse the Academy’s study program for Marriage Celebrants. It covers everything the aspiring Celebrant needs to know, and is very reasonably priced — I couldn’t have afforded the fees of some other providers. The trainers are very encouraging and supportive, and I recommend the course without hesitation.
Jane Coburn (MC)
I just completed the Marriage Celebrancy Course and I would like to thank you all for the way in which you have managed both the learning and assessment for the course. It was always very easy to contact someone for support, either by phone or email. Answers were prompt and helpful and I would like to thank you for your patience and assistance on many occasions. I'm very glad that I chose the Academy over some of the other providers, as I doubt that I would have found assistance as accessible and as frequently in the TAFE sector as I have with your staff. I've just had a look at the terrific looking celebrancy software, and am hoping that I will have occasion to buy it by becoming registered later this year
Jane Carrigg (MC)
I really enjoyed both the face to face and on line training. For several nights I did nothing but dream about performing wedding ceremonies and panicking that I had forgotten to cross a “t” or dot an “i” but now that I have completed my training, I know that I will do well as the academy has been given me excellent training and knowledge in all areas. Thank you to all who have assisted me to fulfil my dreams.
Michelle Whichello (MC)
I had fun doing the simulated ceremonies and feel confident to now apply these new skills to real weddings. The trainers were great and extremely helpful and I felt happy to ask for help anytime. The response time was quick and I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to become a Marriage Celebrant. I did it!
Joy Wright (MC)
A course with a difference! After undertaking many distance education courses or online course over the years, it was pleasing to be involved in this Marriage Celebrancy course that was not only challenging and informative but fun. It provided a unique blend of activities that encouraged the imagination of the student whilst fostering professional growth in this area. Well done Academy of Celebrancy Australia®. I believe this course offers a comprehensive approach to all aspects surrounding the conducting of marriages.
