Your Ceremony
A ceremony needs to be well thought out and uniquely yours. This is your time to shine!
All the ceremonies I produce are highly personalised and written to reflect who you are. I love taking the time to get to know to ensure that your ceremony exceeds your expectations…and surprises and delights your guests too! People often tell me that by the time it gets to the ceremony it feels like you're being supported by an old friend!
I’m a joyous and fun celebrant with a passion for telling your story, YOUR WAY! I work with couples, families and friends to co-create unique ceremonies that will kick off your celebrations in style.
However, if you’re looking for an off-the-shelf, perfunctory ceremony or not ready to take the time to invest in your ceremony, then I’m probably not the celebrant for you!
As an Independent Celebrant I believe in freedom of choice. I offer ceremonies for couples with a belief system, mixed-faith couples, and those looking for something non-religious.
I am based in the South of England and the Dordogne in France. However, I am available to conduct ceremonies anywhere in the world. Have passport, will travel!
Weddings, Commitments and Vow Renewals
There is no limit to what you can do for your celebrant-led wedding, commitment ceremony or renewal of vows. From the more traditional to the quirky, your ceremony will be tailored to you and incorporate your story, your hopes, and your dreams. I'll work with you to create a ceremony reflecting both your personalities and shared love for each other. Perhaps you want to include some symbolic elements such as a Handfasting, Wine Ceremony, Ring Warming, Jumping the Broom or something even more creative and personal to you.
Your ceremony can take place wherever and whenever you wish without restrictions. While there are traditional venues, over the years I've conducted ceremonies in French Chateau's, restaurants, barns, gardens, fields, farms, boats, the beach and in the intimacy of a couple's living room!
There is no limit to your imagination!
I'm equally at home writing ceremonies that honour your beliefs or those who prefer a non-religious approach.
Some couples may prefer to elope and have a ceremony just for two! I’d love to help!
I also offer a script-only service for those couples who would prefer to have a family member or friend deliver their ceremony but have no idea where to start with writing the script.
Just remember that (in the UK) you will need to obtain your legal marriage certificate (from your local Registrar's Office) before your ceremony.
