Catherine was an amazing celebrant for our wedding at the Lakeside Hotel. She was friendly, flexible yet organised when planning and the ceremony was relaxed, warm and heart-felt. Highly recommend
Catherine was our solemniser and wedding coordinator for our wedding last month in the lakeside killaloe. From the very first time we met her we knew we were in the best hands. She took the time to get to know us and she made the ceremony so personal 🩷 she made the whole wedding planning process so easy & enjoyable 😊

Catherine is the most kind hearted and genuine soul you could have for your wedding. We chose Catherine to be our celebrant the second we met her, we knew she was the one to make our wedding day extra special and she did just that. From day one Catherine kept in touch with us, she got to know and made sure that no matter the questions we had that they would be answered or the amount of overthinking I did was resolved easily and she did everything with such grace and ease. Everyone since our wedding last week has completed Catherine for simply just being herself no act just sinply amazing. One of our guest even asked if she was a close family friend that she knew us so well, she was as much a part of our day as anyone else and because of Catherine it was a beautiful and very personal ceremony and for that we will be forever grateful. Catherine is one in a million 💫

100% recommend everyone getting married to have Catherine be their celebrant. She made my partner and I feel so comfortable from our very first time meeting her. She took the time to really get to know us and our story and made us feel so at ease. Im a bit shy and I in particular felt so nervous for the ceremony but Catherine made me feel like I could relax and enjoy the experience and we both appreciated her so much. Our ceremony was beautiful and people keep talking about it ever since. Thanks so so much for everything Catherine. ❤️❤️❤️

Catherine is a five star celebrant for sure. Her kind, caring and generous nature shines through her every communication and she couldn’t be more helpful if she tried. She writes beautiful and personal ceremonies and you can tell she genuinely cares about the couple she is marrying. On the day she was present for everything and made sure everything ran smoothly. Would recommend Catherine to anyone.

Catherine Lewis, I don’t even know where to begin. The prefect match of a celebrant to couple I could have imagined. She managed to nail our relationship and get to know us so well over the few meetings we had. We wanted a short but sweet ceremony and she managed to encapsulate all the important stuff seamlessly. She is a real gem and helped create life long memories myself and husband will be dreaming about forever.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Catherine marry me and my husband this past weekend. From the moment we first met Catherine, she took the time to really get to know us as a couple. She brought such warmth, kindness and calm and made the whole process feel so easy. The ceremony she created was so personal and unique and it truly reflected who we are. On the day itself, Catherine went far beyond her role as our celebrant. From helping John with his buttonhole to making sure my dress was sitting perfectly, it was the little things that meant so much. Her care, attention to detail and reassuring presence helped us both feel relaxed and able to enjoy every moment. Our ceremony was one of our favourite parts of the day and we've had so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful, heartfelt and personal it was. We feel incredibly lucky to have had Catherine as our celebrant. Thank you for everything you did to make our day so special. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a celebrant who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond.

What can we say about the best celebrant in the world? We had our wedding on Friday the 13th of February in the Lakeside Hotel, and from the very first moment we met Catherine, nothing was ever a problem. She was so kind and caring towards both of us and immediately put us at ease. Catherine truly captured our story, the 19 years we’ve shared together, in a way that was so personal and meaningful. Every word she spoke felt genuine and heartfelt. She made us feel incredibly special, and you could feel the love in the room as she told our story. So many of our guests commented afterwards that they had never been at a ceremony so full of love and so personal- that was all down to Catherine. We are beyond grateful. Thank you so much for making our day so unforgettable. Anne-Marie & Danny Brown

If you are considering having a ceremony with Catherine, we would 100% recommend it. Our ceremony felt so personal and meaningful from start to finish. We wrote our own vows and a poem, and Catherine was nothing but enthusiastic, helpful, and incredibly patient throughout the whole process. We included a ring-warming and a tying-the-knot ritual, and our guests absolutely loved it. When Catherine sent us the first draft of the ceremony, it was perfect — we both cried reading it. On the day, our guests laughed, cried, and told us how special and heartfelt the ceremony felt. Catherine truly has a gift for creating moments that stay with you. She even went above and beyond by cleaning mud off my dress after the photos — something I will never forget. We honestly cannot speak more highly of her. These words don’t feel enough to express just how grateful we are.

Catherine married us at The Lakeside Hotel on 7/11/25. We couldn’t have asked for a kinder person to marry us. The ceremony was warm and personal. We were smiling the whole time.

We can’t thank Catherine enough for being our wedding celebrant. She was helpful, professional, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process, and she made our ceremony truly special! Catherine even helped us with a last-minute curveball completely unrelated to the ceremony because she really goes above and beyond. Our ceremony was so beautiful and personal that many of our guests asked how long we’d known Catherine and whether we were already friends before the wedding. That’s a true testament to how genuine, warm, and caring she is. If you’re looking for a celebrant, definitely book Catherine. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

We got married on the 20/09/2025 and the day could not have gone smoother. Catherine made sure that everything was exactly what we'd dreamed of and more. There was nothing that she couldn't/wouldn't do for us to ensure that we had the most amazing day. Both myself and John could not have asked for a better wedding planner and celebrant. The ceremony was beautiful and so personal. All of our guests commented on this aswell and said that they had never been to such a lovely and personal ceremony. Everyone enjoyed the day and that is all down to Catherine. As a bride to be, I was very nervous on the morning of the wedding but Catherine's kind and caring words, and calming energy, put my mind at ease. I could not recommend her more. We will miss our coffee chats with her! ❤️

We were so lucky to have Rev Catherine Lewis – Interfaith Minister Marry us on 20.08.2025 at Ballykisteen Hotel. From the very beginning, Catherine was the nicest person to deal with – always putting us at ease and offering the best advice whenever we needed it. Our ceremony was everything we dreamed of and more, so personal and special, and it’s something we will cherish forever. All of our guests commented on how beautiful and meaningful the ceremony was, which is a true credit to Catherine. What makes it even more remarkable is that she married us only days after losing her father-in-law, yet she remained so professional, kind, and present throughout. We cannot thank her enough for being such an important part of our wedding day, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a celebrant who will make their day truly unforgettable 💕

We cannot thank you enough for the incredibly important role you played in our wedding day. You not only acted as our solemniser but also as our wedding coordinator, and we felt supported every step of the way. We were initially nervous about the ceremony and told you very early on that we didn’t want anything too long or cheesy. You listened to everything we said, asked all the right questions, and when you shared the first draft of our ceremony, we didn’t need to change a single thing. You told our love story so beautifully; short, personal, and meaningful. You somehow captured the full attention of every guest throughout the ceremony, which is rare. Your warmth, kindness, and friendly presence were felt by everyone. You greeted our guests so genuinely, and we’ve had countless compliments about how personal and beautiful the ceremony was. You helped with our music choices, provided us with so many lovely reading/poem options, and made the planning process so much easier. To top it all off, you provided the ceremony candles and even personalised them to match the exact font we used on our invitations, such a thoughtful and special touch. I’ve been to many wedding ceremonies, and honestly, no celebrant or solemniser compares. We would highly recommend you to any couple looking for someone professional, personable, and truly exceptional, someone who will put them at ease in the lead-up and make their ceremony unforgettable on the day itself.

We were absolutely delighted with Catherine as our wedding celebrant. From the very beginning she was a joy to deal with — warm, friendly, and so easy to communicate with. Catherine took the time to really get to know us and created a ceremony that was deeply personal, heartfelt, and unique to our story. On the day in Kilshane House, Catherine's calm presence and thoughtful words made everything feel extra special. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful and personal the ceremony was. We couldn’t have asked for more, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Catherine to any couple looking for a celebrant who brings professionalism, warmth, and a personal touch.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Catherine as our interfaith minister and wedding co-ordinator and we truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. From our first meeting, it was clear we were in the hands of someone exceptional. Catherine brought warmth, professionalism, and a calming presence that instantly made us feel at ease. What really stood out was the deeply personal nature of the ceremony. Catherine took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple, weaving our story, values, and backgrounds into a beautifully tailored sermon. Every word was meaningful, heartfelt, and delivered with sincerity and grace. Beyond the ceremony itself, Catherine’s great personality shone through — warm, engaging, a fantastic communicator, and a joy to work with from start to finish. Nothing was a trouble to her! If you’re looking for an interfaith solemniser who is not only top-class but genuinely cares about creating something memorable and meaningful, look no further. We can’t recommend Catherine highly enough. Mr and Mrs Germaine x

We had the pleasure of working with Catherine as our wedding celebrant, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Despite planning our wedding from abroad, Catherine was incredibly helpful and made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

On the day of the ceremony, Catherine created a relaxed and warm atmosphere that truly reflected the love and joy of the occasion. Her ability to connect with everyone was remarkable. The best compliment we received from our guests was that they thought Catherine had known us for years as a close friend. She captured our story perfectly and delivered it with such sincerity and warmth.

Catherine is a wedding celebrant like no other. We cannot put into words how amazing she is. From the day we met her we knew she had to be our wedding celebrant. She was kind, understanding and always on the other side of the phone at any time of the day. No ask was too much for Catherine - even changing the ceremony to give two drafts so that we could surprise my husband! Our ceremony was beautiful and so personal, people are still talking about it to this day! Before we met Catherine, a friend who worked with her before said 'she is an angel on earth.' This couldn't have been more accurate. This really showed when a personal incident occured before our wedding. Catherine sprung into action and completed tasks that were well outside her remit as a wedding celebrant. We would not have had the wedding day that we dreamed of if it wasn't for Catherine. From buying frames and completing our table numbers to printing out all of the materials needed for our ceremony, drinks reception and dinner reception- Catherine did it all with a smile and compassion. We have made a friend for life. If you are thinking about booking Catherine, you will not be disappointed.

Again from the both of us Catherine; thank you so so so much for the lovely ceremony. Every last person who said it to us after "We were a bit shocked that there was no priest but it was so much better than a religious ceremony. It wasn't boring, it was very entertaining and kept us tuned in. She was a lovely person and spoke so well" All comments we've heard back from our guests. And from us, you hit the nail on the head for what we wanted for our wedding. You brought out the best aspects of our relationship and made it feel so special. It's been such a great journey that you've brought us on and wouldn't change it for the world. Thank you for everything.

Maria and I were married on the 23rd of June. Catherine was coordinator and celebrant at our wedding. Catherine is experienced and organised to plan weddings, to ensure that all activities, legal and otherwise, are covered. This was a great relief to Maria and I as we could be sure that nothing will be missed. Catherine's strongest attribute is her empathy, not just to those who are getting married, but to wider family and friends. She knows that a happy couple depends on the happiness of those attending the ceremony. She is perceptive and proactive to make sure that everyone is properly looked after. We cannot speak highly enough of Catherine and her attention to detail to ensure a happy wedding day! Joe and Maria.

She came to the rescue for us on a number of occasions, and made the whole process of getting married simple and straightforward for us.

I am sending a say a huge thank you to Catherine Lewis and everyone at the Lakeside hotel for such an amazing wedding 💍, I am so proud that I could have 120 of my closest friends and family in Ireland to help us celebrate 50% of whom travelled from our adopted home in the UK💗 it really meant the world to me to showcase my beautiful home in all it's glory (rain ☔ & all). I still can't believe 65 people travelled from outside of Ireland, most had never been. They are still talking about how friendly, welcoming, and warm everyone was. The food was stunning and plentiful, the alcohol flowed and the music and atmosphere was like nothing they experienced before, just epic. It certainly won't be their last trip.

Our wedding planning was stress free, fun, and so exciting. All our phone calls, texts, or meeting you were always available, and everything was sorted. You knew from our chats what we wanted, and you created a day that was truly amazing. You delivered our cermony with so much love, fun, and really showed our guests who we are and what was most important to us. It's the personal details of creating a cermony that truly is special. I believe a few tears were shed along with the laughter. The function room was created to perfection. We loved all the extra personal surprises you brought to the day, even down to the tayto wall. .

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Catherine as both our wedding coordinator and celebrant, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very first meeting, with Catherine was four years ago. Catherine’s warm, professional, and completely tuned in to our vision. From smoothies, pastries, champagne and even scissors Catherine had it all. As a coordinator, Catherine handled every detail with grace and precision. The timeline was seamless, every vendor was perfectly on schedule. Catherine calm energy helped ease our nerves and allowed us to actually enjoy the day without worrying about a thing. As a celebrant, Catherine brought a perfect balance of sincerity, personality, and heart to our ceremony. Catherine took the time to get to know us as a couple and a family, the result was a personalized ceremony that felt deeply meaningful and uniquely “us.” There wasn’t a dry eye in the house! Not even Damien’s. We can’t recommend Catherine enough if you’re looking for someone who’s organized, heartfelt, and truly invested in making your day perfect, look no further.

Catherine was a pleasure to deal with from the beginning of our wedding journey right up to the end. Upon our first meeting Catherine made us feel at ease and was so knowledgeable and personable. No question was too awkward and we felt we were given all the time in the world to discuss what we wanted our day to look like. On the day Catherine was fantastic. Every detail was checked and nothing went amiss. Many guests commented on Catherine's warm presence and the fact she was so visible and attentive. I would have no hesitation recommending Catherine and the Lakeside hotel. The food was amazing and the portions were very generous. Many of our guests remarked it was the best wedding they had attended in a long time. We were so impressed when meeting Catherine for the first time to discuss our wedding that we decided to employ her services as our wedding celebrant. Her interest and genuine efforts to get to know us as a couple and our story really shone through on the day. Many guests commented on how well Catherine knew us and the lovely atmosphere that was created throughout our wedding ceremony. Catherine met us many times in person to create our wedding ceremony and we were so thankful for all the personal elements she included. I also had lost my grandfather in the weeks leading up to the wedding and they way Catherine honoured him in a subtle but moving way will never be forgotten. Catherine is a professional at everything she does and she really made our wedding extra special.

We were fortunate enough to have Catherine as both our Wedding Planner & Celebrant for our wedding in March 2025. Catherine excelled at both duties. As a Wedding Planner she was always at hand, prompt to respond to any queries we had. She was incredibly helpful & generous with her time. We live 3 hours from Killaloe so we do not know local businesses (hair stylists etc). Catherine was a great help in booking these. There were countless other little jobs Catherine did without hesitation. As a Celebrant Catherine really captured the type of Wedding Ceremony we envisaged & got the ball rolling for everyone on what was a great celebration. She added greatly to a cherished day. She is top class at her job & we would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone in the future. Eileen & Shane

We were so lucky to have Catherine as our celebrant for our wedding in February. She wrote the most beautiful, personal ceremony that reflected us perfectly and created such a special atmosphere on the day. Everything flowed so naturally, and she made us and our guests feel so comfortable and included throughout. Catherine put so much care and thought into every detail, and we couldn’t have asked for a more meaningful start to our married life. We will always cherish the ceremony she created for us.Darre

Catherine was a pleasure to deal with from the start of our journey to the big day! Any questions we had Catherine was right at the other end. Very reassuring! Would highly recommend 🙂

Finding the right celebrant was one of the hardest decisions in our wedding planning process. We spoke to about ten different celebrants, but none felt quite right—until we met Catherine. Within the first minute of our Zoom call, we both instantly knew she was the one. She was warm, bubbly, and incredibly knowledgeable about civil ceremonies, which was reassuring as we’d only ever attended one before and didn’t know what to expect. In the lead-up to the big day, Catherine kept in regular contact, sharing ceremony outlines and walking us through the entire process so we felt completely prepared. On the day itself, she went above and beyond. She made us feel calm, comfortable, and as if we’d known her forever. The ceremony was heartfelt, lighthearted, and full of love. Thoughtful touches, like tissues placed on the front row, showed how much she cared. She even stayed afterward to help other vendors tidy up. Some family members had never been to a civil ceremony before and they throughly enjoyed it from beginning to end. Our ceremony ended up being our favourite part of the entire day, all thanks to Catherine. If you’re unsure about who to choose as your celebrant, book a call with her, you’ll know right away trust me! She truly is one in a million. Thank you, Catherine!

From start to finish, Catherine was the best celebrant we could have chosen. She put us both at ease and made our ceremony very personal. Catherine had every detail covered and was able to ensure all our needs were met. Our guests loved every minute of the ceremony and I really appreciated Catherine's flexibility with the many musical interludes we asked for! Thanks Catherine. Dee & Stephen.

From the moment we met Catherine, she made us feel like she knew us for years as a couple. She was genuinely interested in our story and crafted an authentic, heartfelt, funny love story for us which she shared with our guests during the ceremony. She included references to our favourite movies, pastimes and our day to day lives, and people asked us afterwards if we had known her for years. We would highly recommend Catherine to any couple as a celebrant in the future.

From start to finish, you made our day so special. Catherine Lewis was our celebrant; she was there every step of the way over the year and became like a friend to us, always checking in to see if she could help. Our day could not have gone better. I wish I could do it all over; I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you so much.

Catherine is such a lovely caring person, we knew she would be the perfect fit as our wedding celebrant. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with and helped us make a ceremony completely personal to us. Even when we received the draft of our ceremony, we felt totally comfortable in asking for some minor changes, which Catherine accommodated without any issue. Catherine delivered our ceremony with confidence and her professionalism kept us both steady and calm when we were nervous. We would highly recommend Catherine to anyone looking for their celebrant. I guarantee your wedding ceremony will be everything you hoped for and more! Thank you Catherine

Catherine was our solemniser (Aug 2024). Everything about working with her was so stress free. Her support, advice and reassurance throughout the entire wedding planning/preparation process went above and beyond. Her professionalism and confidence kept us calm and grounded on the day. Despite planning a wedding out of country, Catherine always found time to talk with us/get to know us as a couple. Her communication was excellent all around. We had full trust that she would make our ceremony every bit as special as we had hoped. The ceremony that Catherine created was so thoughtful and personal to us. Many of our guests took time to praise how engaging and intimate the ceremony felt. We couldn’t recommend Catherine enough to others, as we are sure she would make their day as special as she did ours.

We had our wedding on 17/08/24 and I could not have been happier with our ceremony. Catherine could not have done a more perfect job. Catherine managed to make the ceremony feel romantic and personalised without making anyone feel like it was cheesy and our sand ceremony was just beautiful. We would never have considered writing our own vows but Catherine did talk us into it and it was such a good idea as everyone commented afterwards that it was such a lovely touch and gave everyone a laugh as we had some silly ones in there and I now have them in a frame side by side forever, So many people commented on how it was the nicest ceremony they have ever witnessed and how people don’t usually remember the ceremony but it was definitely one to remember, I cannot thank you enough Catherine for making it such a special day and giving us such amazing memories to last a lifetime, We are so so grateful for all your hard work and appreciate everything you did for us, Many thanks Mary & David ❤️

Catherine couldn’t have done any more for us on our wedding day and the months leading up to it. She catered to every single request we had and made our day so easy as we had nothing to worry about with her side of things or with the hotel side of things. She took on the role of being that go to person on the day and everything was flawless. Our guests all commented on how beautiful the ceremony was that Catherine provided for us. Again in the weeks and months leading up to it we could ask anything of Catherine and she sorted it without hesitation and was always on the other end of the phone for any questions or anything we needed! 11/10

We had Catherine as our solemniser in May 2024 and can not recommend her enough. She is a truly kind and caring person and took the time to get to know myself and my husband before putting the ceremony together. She was very approachable and communicative the entire time and shared with us the draft of the ceremony, while welcoming our suggested edits in a friendly and cooperative way. As we got married at the lakeside hotel, she was also our wedding coordinator. We felt so lucky to have her as she took everything in her stride and was reassuring and just a fantastic support the entire time. She went above and beyond our expectations so we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

Catherine was our celebrant and wedding co ordinator on the day of our wedding. She was a dream to work with. She really takes the time to get to know the couple and creates the ceremony around them! She made the wedding process so easy. Everyone told me I was such a calm and relaxed bride and that was truly because of Catherine. Nothing was too big or small. We couldn’t recommend Catherine enough! Shannen and Joe.
