Every couple has their own unique story to tell and your wedding day is the perfect opportunity to share it!
Wedding ceremonies are changing. We are no longer bound by a traditional church service or the rules of the registrar. So why not opt for a memorable and bespoke wedding ceremony that celebrates you as a couple and tells a story in a truly personal and enchanting way!
Every couple deserves to have exactly the ceremony they desire. Whether that is simple and traditional or perhaps including a symbolic or cultural element, which I can help you with. It is your wedding day, so let us tell your story, your way.
We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love Dr Seuss
Your Wedding Ceremony
Your wedding ceremony will fully embrace your personalities, styles and cultures. It will be sprinkled with all the beautiful extra elements that you desire making it truly personal.
A traditionally beautiful yet captivating ceremony with your own choice of readings, cultural or religious traditions and perhaps even some modern twists!
I can advise on the many exciting symbolic rituals which you may decide to incorporate into your ceremony. From handfasting to a unity candle ceremony to ring warmings, all of which only adds more meaningfulness to your ceremony on the day. Alternatively, we can creatively design your own unique special elements that are completely bespoke to you.

1. Let’s chat!
Why not book an initial no – obligation call or zoom with me so we can get to know one another and you can decide whether I am the right celebrant for me.
If you decide to book me as your celebrant… -
2. Here is where the fun starts…let us start planning!
Once booked, we can arrange our first planning meeting in person or virtually. We can bounce ideas and discuss any areas you wish to explore. Think of this chat as a creative brainstorm or pinterest board. No idea is off limits!
-
3. Let’s get personal!
Normally, between 6 and 4 months before the wedding, I will send you over a questionnaire ( it will be fun I promise!) to be completed both separately and together. This allows me to find out more about you as individuals as well as a couple and will inspire the format of both the ceremony and script. I will also be available in the interim via what’s app or zoom should you wish to chat further in regards any specific elements.

4. Sit back and relax
Once I have all the information I need, then I will get to work writing your ceremony. This may include the inclusion of symbolic/cultural or personal rituals. I can also support you with your vows and readings providing guidance, support and carefully chosen examples.
With every ceremony I write, my aim is perfection first time however if there are any changes you wish to make, that is fine. We will tweak until you are 100% happy with the final draft.
Every couple is unique, so whether you would feel more comfortable knowing exactly what will be said on the day or whether you would rather an element of surprise along with your guests – it is your special day, so you decide! -
5. The final countdown
A couple of weeks before the wedding, we can meet either in person or via zoom to run through the final logistics for the day. My aim is to put your mind completely at rest – as I fully understand myself, the lead up to a wedding can me very busy and at times stressful. I want you to be able to sit back and feel reassured that your ceremony is in safe hands!
We can also discuss holding a rehearsal if this is something you wish to do. -
6. Your big day!
The day has arrived! How exciting. I will arrive early to liaise with the venue, your planner ( if you have one), photographer, guests and staff to ensure everything goes smoothly so you can just sit back and relax and enjoy a glass of bubbly or two! I will then be ready to officiate your ceremony confidently with warmth, passion and pride.

7. Wedding gift
As a special keepsake, I will send you a printed copy of your bespoke ceremony script so you can treasure the words and memories forever.
Today will be a magical day. Your ceremony will be something you and your guests will think back on in years to come. A memory that will be etched in your minds and hearts ( and everybody else’s!) for a lifetime!
