Weddings
I refuse to think of the ceremony as the bit you sit through before the “real fun” starts. With me, the ceremony is the heart of the day. The bit people will remember and carry with them long after the confetti’s been swept away.
My approach is open-hearted, inclusive and easygoing. Nothing stiff or overly formal; more like listening to somebody who knows you stand up and tell your story just as you would. Above all else, I’m here to make sure you and your favourite people feel something and have a bloody lovely time doing it.
What’s included?
The joy of a celebrant-led ceremony is there are no rules. No “this is how it’s always done”, no awkward boxes to fit into and no pressure to copy anyone else. Everything is yours to shape: the words, tone, structure, music, readings, rituals and all the meaningful little details.
I don’t come with a fixed idea of what your ceremony should be – it might be polished and demure, feral and free, gameshow-style or inspired by Kylie. Anything goes. My job is to get to know you as a friend would and create something authentic to your love. And if you’re unsure where to start, no biggie. We’ll figure it out together and craft something remarkably you.
The ‘are we about to become best friends?’ chat
First up, we’ll have an initial video call. I want to hear the highlights of your story and any wedding plans you might have at this stage. This is also your opportunity to ask me anything.
This step is key because choosing a celebrant is deeply personal. You deserve somebody who feels like the right fit… not somebody reading from a template with the emotional range of a parking ticket. Nah.
Oh, so we’re really doing this?
If we vibe and you decide I’m your person, I’ll send over a contract of service, booking form and invoice for the deposit which gets your date secured in the diary. I’ll even treat you to a riveting document on GDPR and my privacy policy. Don’t say I don’t spoil you!
Then the fun starts. At this point we start talking about lead times and we’ll pencil in time to deep dive on you and your relationship. I’ll also share a ‘couple’s questionairre’ which I’d love you both to complete individually.
Snorkels on for the deep dive!
This is where I get to know you properly and become sort of like a pig digging for truffles (i.e. the juicy stuff for your ceremony script). I want to hear about your journey, your people, in-jokes, favourite memories and your values for me to reflect back as your mirror during the ceremony.
We’ll chat often and I’ll ask lots of questions. If you’d like, I’ll also speak to family and friends for extra insights. By the big day, we won’t feel like colleagues but more like mates.
Scripting
Once I’ve gathered all the details, I’ll start crafting your ceremony – usually about six months before the day, giving us plenty of time to tweak as much or as little as needed. You have unlimited edits and no edit is ‘too minor‘.
If needed, I can also help with vows, guiding you to turn your feelings into the right words without drifting into “kind regards” territory. A few days out, we’ll run a rehearsal in person or via video call so everyone feels calm, comfortable, and ready.
It’s like Christmas!
It’s finally here. The best part: the ceremony!
I’ll be there, folder in hand, possibly making small talk with that weird uncle you warned me about, ready and raring to go.
As your ceremony takes place, I will guide everything with warmth and calm. Afterwards, we’ll have our PWD (post-wedding debrief, obvs) where we’ll check in, swap photos and I’ll have to start emotionally processing the fact I’ve become attached to another wonderful couple.
Weddings start at £700 and elopements at £480, excluding any travel and/or accommodation costs. Here’s everything my package includes:
Before the ceremony
- Initial chat: A relaxed conversation to ensure we connect and to discuss your plans and wishes for the day.
- Deep dive: A couple’s questionnaire plus in-depth chats (together and separately) to truly understand you both.
- Gathering stories: Optional chats with your favourite people to collect stories and special details that make your relationship unique.
- Ceremony writing: Crafting a fully bespoke ceremony from scratch filled with authenticity, personality and everything that reflects you perfectly, with unlimited edits until it’s just right.
- Vows & rehearsal support: Guidance or emotional support with writing vows, plus a rehearsal (in person or online) before the big day to ensure everyone feels calm and prepared.
On the day
- Calm, organised celebrant energy: I’ll arrive well ahead of time to muck in with ceremony setup, help you fix that one-piece-of-hair-that-won’t-hold-a-curl, soothe nerves and ensure everything runs smoothly before guests arrive. And fine, if you need someone to quality-test the canapés, I’ll step up.
- The magic moment: I’ll be there at the front, folder in hand, ready to deliver your ceremony with all the love your story deserves.
- Fully dedicated: I only book one wedding a day, so you’ll have my full time, energy and attention throughout.
- Post-day debrief: We’ll process the day together and I will provide any follow-up you might need, including your script printed in your colour-scheme.
