25.01.2022 REVIEW: Thank you so much for everything you did. You were so lovely, full of warmth, understanding, and compassion, and you turned what could have been a moment full of heartache and tears into a celebration of life and happiness. Thank you. I dont think it could have been a more beautiful service, and a lot of that is because of your fantastic work. Thank you, Joanne. Thank you.

23.01.2022 Beautiful Rixon Reserve in Baldivis was the backdrop for Tim and Olivia's wedding yesterday. Family and close friends joined them to celebrate. How great is this set up from Wedding Magic? Congratulations to you both, and may you be as happy tomorrow as you are today xx #joannebakercivilcelebrant #happyeverafter #weddingperth #2020weddingperth #celebrationoflife #celebrateeachday #forallcelebrationsoflife #forallcelebrationsinlife #rixomreservebaldivis

22.01.2022 FEEDBACK: I must say that we were very pleased with the way you conducted the funeral ceremony. It went off beautifully and everyone commented on it, saying that it was the best funeral they had every attended. Of course funerals are not the best thing to attend but you made it the best and enjoyable that it could be.

20.01.2022 Celebrating eleven years as an Authorised Marriage Celebrant today. It's a privilege to be a part of a celebration of life, and one I never take for granted. So happy to be doing what I love to do - helping others. Thanks for your continued support xx #joannebakercivilcelebrant #celebrationoflife #celebrateeachday #forallcelebrationsoflife #forallcelebrationsinlife #marriagecelebrantperth #marriagecelebrant #perthmarriagecelebrant #perthwedding #funeralcelebrant #grateful #anniversary

19.01.2022 FEEDBACK: As you probably know, it seems that every time you buy something or get a delivery or whatever, people ask for feedback and we probably get a request for feedback approx 3 to 4 times a week from how was your experience to how did we do? We no longer respond to these. However, in your case, we make an exception because the interaction we had with you eased a huge burden at a difficult time for us on the passing of Denise's Mother. Your words you spoke as you guided us all through the process and funeral were excellent. We would recommend you to our friends and relatives to facilitate any celebrant occasion. Thank you again, very much appreciated, we could not suggest any improvements.

19.01.2022 Hope you all have a great day xx

18.01.2022 We said farewell to an extraordinary man today. A man who made his mark. A true gentleman, family man, and a friend to many. This song was played today, and I would like to share it with all of you. Remember, not all heroes wear capes....they are ordinary folk, like you and me. But by geez, they impact and influence those around them by living their life.... Alan Elliss, it was a pleasure to be in your company, even for the briefest of moments, and it was an honour to lead the celebration of your life today. Rest in peace with your beautiful wife, Betty, and grandson, Justin xxx

18.01.2022 Please, stop being so complacent about social distancing when gathering in groups. Please stop hugging and kissing one another, please use the hand sanitiser and wash your hands, please stop huffing when you're asked to record your details on COVID-19 register or scoffing when asked to maintain a safe distance from one another..... And please, if you have travelled interstate to attend a wedding or a funeral or you know someone who has, let the organiser know and make sure ...you have an exemption to attend the event in writing. Please read this post......do you actually "recover" from COVID-19. Please think about this when you question social distancing. Please think about this when you question wearing a mask in public. Ask yourself, Can I be sick for over a month or more? Can I deal with the uncertainty of when or if this sickness will go away if I get it? A

18.01.2022 TESTIMONIAL: Joanne was very helpful throughout the process of organising the funeral for my Mother. It was a very difficult time for myself and my Family but Joanne made the process bearable. She was happy to go above and beyond her celebrant role and answer any questions we had about the process of the whole funeral experience. We had two days to plan the funeral. Even though it was a relatively short time frame the service was beautiful. We were extremely happy with ...the professionalism as well as the empathy Joanne showed the family at this difficult time. We could not have asked for a better Celebrant and I would be more than happy in recommending Joanne for any future Celebrant roles. Thank you Joanne, I will be forever grateful for the support and professionalism you showed myself and my Family. I would also like to thank you for the beautiful send off you gave my wonderful Mum. She would have absolutely loved it.

17.01.2022 FEEDBACK: Thank you for your email inquiring how we are coping after Alma's passing. That alone says to us how considerate and caring you are about the people you help In your position. We as a family including those overseas valued your expertise, compassion, communication and confidence with your input for Alma's funeral. Despite the difficulties and disappointing restrictions put upon us through COVID-19 everything went very well and Almas life was celebrated beautifully and she would have been very happy with the end result.

15.01.2022 The best bridesmaid ever!

15.01.2022 FEEDBACK: Firstly, we were all exhausted and overwhelmed, physically, mentally and emotionally, when we met you. We had so much to do and so much to think about and we didn’t feel like doing any of it. Thankfully, when you walked in the door, you instantly, helped us to feel calm and relaxed. Your genuine friendliness and compassion quickly helped us to open up and talk to you about Dad. ... It was very easy to be in your company and we happily shared our memories and our tears. Best of all, was how you talked through what to expect on the day of the funeral. The detail you gave about what would occur during and after the viewing, particularly, made that process so much less overwhelming when it came around. Actually, I found it to be quite a peaceful experience because I was no longer scared. That advice was utterly invaluable. It was such a relief to see you on the day of the funeral and I felt like we were in very safe hands. The service itself was just perfect. You spoke about Dad as if you really knew him and that meant a lot to everyone. Many relatives and friends that attended the service commented on how wonderfully you spoke. Your demeanour, at all times, was approachable, genuine, organised and dependable. We felt comfortable with you and even shared a few good chuckles over some of the finer details. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending your services to anyone needing a celebrant for any reason. You helped make a really sad experience quite an enjoyable, peaceful and memorable one. We have said amongst ourselves many times ‘Dad would’ve really liked Joanne’ For us, Joanne you were just spot on!

15.01.2022 Have a great weekend everyone xx

08.01.2022 No wonder I was tired. A meeting in the morning, then a burial service in Fremantle at 2:15pm followed by a memorial in the Hills at 4:45pm. What a stinker of a day!

06.01.2022 TESTIMONIAL: During a time of absolute dread, Joanne made the whole process easier and softer to deal with. When questioning us to find out how my Mother will be laid to rest she asked pertinent but easy questions to answer. If she saw we were getting a little emotional she gave us time to relax by asking "fun" questions about the past to help us remember the good times and not just the present sadness. Joanne was very supportive when we needed her to be and my family & I w...ere very pleased with how she conducted the ceremony. When the family and friends did not have the strength to stand up and make speeches, Joanne was quite ready to say the speeches for us so we could just get through the ceremony without being howling messes in front of a crowd. Joanne presented herself very neatly and efficiently & we would definitely recommend her to others who are going through the grieving process.

06.01.2022 A really valid piece about risk management where it comes to wedding day photography - definitely food for thought xx

05.01.2022 REVIEW: We would like to extend our thanks for being the celebrant at the service for Dad's funeral. We really appreciated what you brought to the day and we definitely think Dad would have been more than happy too. On the sad occasion it was good for all of us to have a bit of a laugh and a smile as we remembered Dad.

05.01.2022 It's about having families take back control and be as involved as they wish to be. They can't do that unless they know what their options are. I love being in a position to empower families, to challenge their thinking and provide information so they can make informed decisions. https://www.theguardian.com//a-fertile-time-for-death-disr

04.01.2022 TESTIMONIAL: I would just like to say thank you so much for everything you did for us when Mum passed away. We requested you to do Mum's service as you did Mum's sisters, and we loved the service. You made everything easy for us and nothing was too much trouble. You guided us, advised us and supported us every step of the way. We loved the way you spoke, it was as if you really new Mum. Your communication couldn’t be faulted and having a hard copy of the service you provided is something we can look back on. Thank you doesn’t seem enough.

03.01.2022 RECOMMENDATION : After the passing of our beautiful mother Beryl, Joanne Baker, Authorised Celebrant, was recommended to us. On meeting with Joanne, we found her very easy to talk to and put us at ease. There was nothing she found too hard to do for us and we felt that our Mum would be treated with compassion, love and respect. On the day of the funeral, Joanne, was very compassionate and loving with all her actions and words. It was very moving to hear her speak about our ...beautiful Mum and we were very impressed with the way she handled all the arrangements. Thank you Joanne, we would not have changed any part of the day and would recommend you to anyone needing your services. You put us at peace knowing that our wishes were carried out with love, compassion and respect. Thank you Sue & Jenny
