Wedding Ceremonies  
You’re engaged!  

What an exciting moment—CONGRATULATIONS!

I adore a great love story.
I am creative and  have the expertise to turn your vision and dream wedding day  into a beautiful, unforgettable occasion.

We can make your day absolutely your way. We can include virtually anything, including religious or spiritual content , rituals , poems, readings, music and even special guests like your dog to be a ring bearer. You can write your own promises and vows but I can guide you if you need help.

You will need to be legally married or have legally registered your civil partnership before the service. Many couples now book a time with their local registry office and ask for a registration only service. This only takes a few minutes and doesn’t even have to include vows or a ring exchange, it simply means that the legal aspect is complete and you are now entirely free to create your beautiful wedding service wherever you want it to be (with the relevant land owner or property permissions).

All the usual formalities within a wedding service can be incorporated with a celebrant, including signing a certificate with your witnesses.
My package includes:
  • Meetings - Up to two meetings to create and design your ceremony. Where possible this will be done in person or via Zoom if not possible.
  • Your Script - A minimum 25 minute script including vows and special ceremony if requested
  • Rehearsal - Attendance at a rehearsal if requested * additional fees maybe applied
  • Keepsakes - Sourcing providing ceremonial keepsakes and props * additional fees applied
Mini Ceremony Ideas
Blending Sands – A ceremony that represents being united as one, blending sands of different colours.

Ring Warming – Loved ones hold and bless the rings with good wishes prior to the couples ring exchange.

Unity Candle – Lit and celebrated to represent the unity of the couple. In laws are traditionally invited to light candles from it.

Hand Fasting – The ceremony refers to the making ‘fast’ of a pledge or promise by the joining of hands with ribbon or twine.

Jumping the Broom – This custom can be delivered in a number of ways and be a light hearted ending to the service.

Wedding F.A.Q

Is the ceremony legal?

A celebrant wedding is bespoke, beautiful, creative, meaningful – but not legal. You will need to do the legal bit in a registrar office. You might like to think of it as the wedding admin. You can do the legal bit before or after your celebrant wedding. That’s your call. If you want to be heart-married but not legally married, then you don’t need to do the registrar bit at all.

Where can I get married?

Absolutely anywhere! Unlike legal weddings that need to take place in a licensed venue, a celebrant wedding can take place wherever you like. In a big top, on a boat, at your favourite nightclub, at the beach, in a pub, in a field – the possibilities are endless.

Can you include children in the ceremony?

Absolutely. I’m delighted to include the small and not so small young people in your life in the ceremony and adapt on the day (or in the moment) if they go off-piste.

Can we include religious elements?

If you would like to absolutely yes. This is your ceremony your way. For authenticity I personally would not perform any religious aspects but you would be welcome to invite a friend or family member to do so and I would incorporate this into the ceremony.

What’s a unity ceremony?

It’s a symbolic often creative ritual to represent the union of two people. Examples include sand ceremonies, wine rituals, creating an anniversary capsule, tea ceremonies, tree planting and handfasting’s. 

What’s a handfasting?

A beautiful ancient Celtic tradition with pagan roots that see’s the celebrant bind the couple’s hands together with rope or ribbon to signify the union. It’s where the phrase tie the knot originates. You can use one chord or friends and family can add one’s to it.
I believe that every couple deserves a truly unique ceremony, which is why every ceremony I create is as personal and lovingly crafted as the last.
