Directory Celebrants in Canterbury
Are you searching for a civil union or marriage celebrant? I am an easy-going, approachable woman with six years’ experience as a celebrant. I am also younger than most celebrants with a good sense of humour (trust me, couples appreciate this!) and I can assist you with the creation of a memorable, yet unique ceremony for your day.
We were really happy with Filia as our celebrant. She was always warm, friendly, relaxed and helpful. Nothing was ever a problem for her. She was happy to come to us when we were busy. Was always in contact with us by email (which was our preferred way as we were not often by our phones). Filia was happy to change the ceremony until it was just what we wanted and was happy with a last minute change right before the ceremony. She reminded us of all the practical things we needed and we would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Filia for being a part of our day!

Filia was amazing on our day she made the process so relaxed and easy.
She was more than accomodating on our ideas and help us calm our nerves as public speaking isn’t our thing. Highly recommended no questions asked.

Will recommend you to our friends!

Filia was chosen as our celebrant from this website. We meet with her and she had some great ideas. From there we decided to have her as our celebrant. Our wedding was a short-notice one as had 6 weeks. Filia helped us organise a relaxed backyard wedding and it was perfect. Would definitely recommend.

We had a fantastic ceremony with Filia.
Everything was arranged with her in plenty of time and exactly how we wanted it. All the options and possible contingencies were discussed between the three of us and our plan was great. Filia was in email and text contact with us as per our agreement and she was always ready and organised.
The day of our wedding was wet so option C came in to play and that worked out just fab. Filia was full of smiles and laughs as we both were. She made sure we were comfortable and relaxed along with doing all the official bits so we could have a great ceremony.
We both highly recommend Filia - she made our wedding perfect.

We didn’t want a stuffy/boring celebrant and upon meeting Filia we knew we had found the perfect match for us!!

Filia was fantastic from start to finish. She helped us to write a ceremony that was personal and unique to us. We felt supported and relaxed because Filia has a calming presence. The whole ceremony was professional and went smoothly. Many of our friends and family commented that it was the nicest wedding they had ever attended. We are really grateful to Filia for helping to make it such a truly special day!
Wedding Date: February 8, 2014
We saw Filia’s reviews on this website and thought she sounded like our ideal celebrant. We met at her house initially and discussed what we wanted in a celebrant, she shared her knowledge and told us what to expect and from there we agreed she was perfect! Following this meeting we received her sample ideas and did some brainstorming ourselves on what we would like to include in our ceremony. We then met a couple more times, had a rehearsal at the venue and low and behold, it was wedding day. The whole ceremony process was smooth and seamless. We felt we had the knowledge we needed for our day. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect celebrant - we would recommend her to any couples.

We found Filia after Googling for a marriage celebrant and found her website. We found her service was very good; efficient, organised and accommodating. Would recommend to all.
Wedding Date: March 2, 2013
Wow! Filia was perfect for our wedding from day one when we first met with her.
She was relaxed, listened carefully, provided great advice and had a great sense of humour.
She replied to all our questions promptly whenever we had any, which was rarely as she had covered off everything so well previously.
On the day the ceremony was amazing, the professionalism was obvious however even more so was the sense of calm and happiness which she was instrumental in creating.
Given the opportunity we would happily recommend Filia to anyone looking for a celebrant.
Thank you so so much Filia from both of us.

We hired Filia over a year ago and we were so impressed with her. She made our day unique and special with her easy going approach.
Filia started off with meeting us (no hard sell), sending us some samples and then assisting with the draft of our ceremony. It was all so easy.
Thank you!
Wedding Date: January 12, 2013
Filia performed our civil union and we are so glad we chose her. The time leading up to the ceremony was professional and seamless. She had heaps of great ideas and her whole personna was happy, helpful and accommodating. We had many comments and still come today, some 8months later that it was the best “wedding” ever attended. Many thanks to Filia, as on the day she quietly and wonderfully conducted a beautiful ceremony, touching many and making the whole day memorable for us for all the right reasons. Thank you Filia.
