Aphrodite was a dream to work with! We loved her, our guests loved her and to be honest- the camera loves her too. From start to finish, she was warm, bubbly, funny and professional. She was so organised and as two people who have never been married before it was reassuring having someone on our side who knew exactly what to do! She had everything under control on the day and all we had to do was show up and smile. She has done over 900 weddings and it shows, we would recommend this ray of sunshine over and over again.

Aphrodite was absolutely perfect for our wedding. My wife and I chose her because she's LGBT friendly and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped walk us through everything our ceremony needed, from acknowledgement of country to vows and everything in between. When our initial photographer had to drop out last minute, she helped us find another photographer with less than a week until the wedding. Truly, if we had not had Aphrodite our wedding wouldn't have been the same, thank you so much Aphrodite! ❤️

We had decided on a registry office wedding and had the date picked out, alas covid had other plans, registry office was shutdown, and we were left scrambling to find a celebrant and venue. Luckily we found Aphrodite who was very understanding and welcoming and offered her own private garden for a wonderful intimate ceremony. Aphrodite is a lovely, elegant and experienced celebrant and a warm and approachable person.
The ceremony took place among the greenery and flowers in Aphrodite's private garden and we couldn't have been happier. Thanks again for being our celebrant and providing us with a beautiful and intimate venue as well as the little extras! Kon & Rach February 2, 2022
Saxon and I will be forever indebted to Aphrodite for all her help in putting together the wedding of our dreams. She is very passionate, warm, funny and incredibly generous allowing us to use her beautiful garden which was the perfect venue for our intimate ceremony. Aphrodite made everything seem effortless from the start to finish. I could not imagine having our wedding without her!
Love from Saxon and Flo Jan 29, 2022
Thank you beautiful Aphrodite for being a part of our wedding! She’s so nice and welcoming and made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. Aphrodite kindly offered her private garden for our ceremony and it was so cozy and beautiful. She’s got great organizational skills too. With her attention to detail she ensured our wedding day was absolutely perfect and exactly how we planned. A truly magical and memorable day!

Aphrodite is dedicated to really listening to the wants and needs of the couple and creating the perfect and tailored wedding day. She made us feel completely comfortable, stress free and added lovely personal touches to make the day memorable and special even though we chose a simple and low key ceremony. In our experience she was prompt to respond to queries, warm, friendly and approachable and seemed to genuinely share in the joy and excitement of the occasion and all it symbolised. Casey & Paul April 9, 2020
We were so grateful to have Aphrodite Anderson as our celebrant. From the very start she was friendly, warm and approachable, yet maintained a high level of professionalism. She created a ceremony that suited us perfectly and we couldn't have been happier on the day. Her attention to detail was exemplary which included asking the colour she should wear to compliment our bridal theme. Taking a tissue out of her reader to wipe away my tears showed how thoughtful she was about every aspect of our ceremony. A huge thank you to our beautiful celebrant for a most memorable day!
Katarina & Daniel Santon
Aphrodite made our day so memorable. We chose the elopement package offered and it was just perfect for us. We had the ceremony in Aphrodite’s garden in Crafers and it was so lovely, very romantic and intimate. Aphrodite even organised our photographer Olivia, who also does hair and makeup and did an amazing job? Apart from Aphrodite being very professional, she is also a beautiful woman inside and out and genuinely loves being a celebrant and it shows. Thank you for being an important part of our special day? We would highly recommend.

Dear Aphrodite, thank you so much for being our amazing celebrant for our wedding in the Adelaide Botanic Gardens in November 2018. You were just the person for the job! Your calm, in control, organized and mothering nature allowed the day to run perfectly but also keep both myself and Shaun at ease! You are truly an angel. And the work you do is so very special. You will never be forgotten by us.
All our love,
Shaun and Lauren
As a same sex couple not really in sync with wedding ceremony protocols and procedures, Aphrodite helped us make sense of it all. We live overseas and organized our ceremony to be in Adelaide. Even with those logistics Aphrodite had it all under control. Sensitive to our wish to include special traditions from our different cultures she brought it all together which meant we and our guests had a truly meaningful and memorable ceremony. Many of our guests commented on how professional and classy our celebrant was. We were honored and proud to have had Aphrodite navigate us through this milestone and experience this day with us.

From the first meeting with Aphrodite to the saying of our wedding vows, the level of warmth, professionalism and depth of insight she brought to our wedding day was faultless. Aphrodite created a welcoming atmosphere for our guests, she pre-empted things we had not considered, and was very well prepared at meetings and on the day. She offered many variations of ceremony ideas and ways of sharing about our relationship as a celebration of our love with our guests. If you are searching for a wedding celebrant with excellent attention to detail, personalisation, the ability to improvise that comes only with experience, and bring a light-hearted touch to your wedding, Aphrodite comes with our highest recommendation.

Aphrodite Anderson is an amazing celebrant. We are very laid back and didn’t want a long ceremony and Aphrodite still made the ceremony one to remember! Thank you for getting the boys organised with rings/music ect! It was comforting to know I could leave everything in your hands without me having to be there. I was so nervous walking into the venue but once you came to greet me and get me ready I was so excited and couldn’t wait to walk down the aisle. Aphrodite is sophisticated, very funny, kind hearted and an absolute dream to work with! You made everything so easy and effortless for us and I couldn’t thank you enough for making our day so perfect! We love you, and will always cherish our time spent with you.
Love,
Jess & Michael Stapleton xx
Aphrodite Anderson stepped in to do our ceremony at very late notice (5 weeks before the big day) and assisted us to pull our ceremony together quickly. She made our ceremony, relaxed and fun and supported our wishes to conduct the ceremony in a way that suited us. We really appreciate everything Aphrodite did to make our ceremony so special. Thank you!
Cate Stanford
My husband and I knew from our first meeting that we wanted Aphrodite Anderson to conduct our Adelaide wedding ceremony. She gave us the freedom to personalise our ceremony and vows so that it would truly represent us as a couple. She is someone who loves love and works hard to ensure that everything runs smoothly. I wish we were getting married again just so that we could work with Aphrodite again.
Anastasia Mouratidis

Aphrodite Anderson made our ceremony in Kuitpo Forest such a memorable one. She went above and beyond what was required that day, and we really appreciated it.

The moment we met Aphrodite she was warming, very professional and organised. She has a great deal of experience which showed throughout preparation and on the day of the ceremony. Made us feel at ease and leaving the guest praising her happy vibrant nature. Couldn't ask for better. Your perfect Adelaide Wedding celebrant!
Kathy & Craig Loechel
I cannot even begin to describe how happy Adam and I were with the service provided by Aphrodite. Living remote, and dealing predominantly with suppliers via email, Aphrodite was informative, to the point, and responded quickly. She went above and beyond to meet with us the week before the wedding, and the day ran without a hick up. Aphrodite's attention to detail, made all the difference.
Thank you Aphrodite!!!
Samantha T.
Aphrodite...a perfect name for a perfect celebrant! The whole process was just so easy and enjoyable.

Aphrodite provided humour and direction during a time of nerves and excitement during our ceremony. She was kind, lovely and took the pressure off by making us laugh! Thank you for a beautiful ceremony Aphrodite x
Aphrodite was a dream - professional throughout the entire process. We felt we were in good hands from the initial consult throughout. Aphrodite Anderson will work with you to ensure your ceremony suits you as a couple, as well as to ensure the visuals of your wedding party work.
