From a Virtual Assistant Who Specialises in Calm and Care-Focused Support



Oh hey! As a virtual assistant who works closely with wedding creatives—especially celebrants—I’ve noticed something: the celebrants who stand out and get those glowing word-of-mouth referrals? They’re not just incredible on the wedding day… they’re thoughtful in the lead-up, too.

And that all comes down to client experience.


It’s those touchpoints—the simple, intentional moments like a helpful guide, a warm welcome email, or a workflow that feels effortless—that leave a lasting impression.

If you’re a celebrant juggling bookings, ceremony writing, and all the admin in between, having ready-made, on-brand resources can take a huge load off your plate. Not only do they save you time, but they also create a seamless and professional experience for your couples.


One of the easiest ways to do this?👉 A Client Ceremony Guide to help walk your couples through what to expect, how to get involved, and how to make the ceremony feel uniquely theirs.

What Are Client Touchpoints, and Why Do They Matter?


Client touchpoints are all the moments of connection that happen along your couple's journey with you. Think onboarding emails, resources, check-ins, and the little things that show you're organised, intentional, and invested in their experience.

These don’t just make life easier—they build trust, ease nerves, and make you stand out in a sea of wedding vendors.

In a space that can feel chaotic, your brand can feel like a breath of fresh air.





Why Thoughtful Touchpoints Matter


They build confidence

When couples feel guided, they relax. They know you’ve got their back, which frees them up to be more present and emotionally connected to their ceremony.


They elevate your brand

A professional, thoughtful workflow isn’t just impressive—it’s memorable. It makes your service feel high-touch, even if you're doing it all behind the scenes in your leggings with a coffee in hand (we’ve all been there).


They create referrals

People remember how you made them feel. Clients who felt cared for are the ones who rave about you to everyone they know.



One of the Most Powerful (and Underrated) Tools? A Ceremony Guide.


Let’s be real: couples don’t always know what goes into a wedding ceremony. That’s where you come in—not just to write and deliver something beautiful, but to help them understand how it all works and what they can do to make it theirs.


A ceremony guide gives you the chance to:

  • Walk them through the flow of a typical ceremony

  • Share your process and what they can expect

  • Offer vow-writing tips and prompts

  • Include optional extras like rituals, music ideas, or readings

  • Answer frequently asked questions

  • Show off your brand voice and calming approach


It’s like handing them a warm cup of tea and saying, “Hey, I’ve got this—and I’ve got you.”



Make It Easy with a Ready-to-Use Template


You don’t need to start from scratch (because, let’s face it, time is a luxury). That’s why I created an editable Canva Ceremony Guide template just for celebrants like you.

It’s fully customisable to suit your brand—your colours, fonts, tone of voice—and packed with helpful page ideas including:


  • Cover page

  • About Me + How to Use the Guide

  • Ceremony Flow & Structure

  • Vow Writing Tips + Worksheet

  • Readings & Rituals

  • FAQs and Contact Page...and more.


Use it digitally in your CRM or onboarding workflow, or print it as a beautiful takeaway for wedding expos or meetings.



Ready to Elevate Your Experience?


Your ceremony might be the heart of the wedding day, but your process is the heartbeat of your business. A simple, beautiful ceremony guide shows your couples you’re prepared, professional, and passionate about making their experience smooth and special.
