I have a comprehensive and personalised approach to creating and delivering wedding ceremonies. I am able to provide a unique and flexible service, as I am not bound by legal or religious constraints. Instead I have the freedom to incorporate traditions and values that are meaningful to each couple.
Every couple has a unique story and vision for their ceremony, and I work to create a personalised experience that reflects their love and commitment.
From the first meeting, I take time to listen to the couples' wishes and ideas, ensuring that every aspect of the ceremony is tailored to their preferences.
During the wedding service, I act as the celebrant, leading the ceremony. This can include various elements such as the exchanging of vows, an exchange of rings, readings, poems, music and singing. The couple can also repeat, in front of friends and family, the legal undertaking they will have already made.
Unity rituals, such a hand fasting, broom jumping, sand ceremonies and others, can be incorporated into the ceremony. Click here for more ideas.
Unlike traditional religious or civil weddings, a celebrant led ceremony has no time restrictions, allowing for a more personalised and meaningful experience. They can also take place at a venue of your choice.
It it important to note that in England, celebrants do not have the legal authority to marry a couple. Therefore, before the wedding ceremony, the couple must obtain a marriage licence from a government registar at a register office. However, I am up to date with the legal requirements and can provide guidance and advice on navigating the process.

There are many reasons why people choose to renew their wedding vows; to celebrate a milestone anniversary, a reaffirming of their commitment to each other, a symbol of a fresh start after challenging times, or giving friends and family a chance to witness and celebrate a couple's ongoing commitment and love.
I approach the planning and delivery of a bespoke vow renewal ceremony with the same level of care and attention to detail as I would for a wedding.
A vow renewal ceremony can have the same elements as a wedding ceremony. They often include:
Reflection and remembrance - taking a moment to reflect on their journey together, sharing memories and experiences that have shaped their relationship.
The renewal of vows - traditional vows or those written by the couple can be used.
Exchange of rings or a ring blessing.
Readings or poems by family or close friends.
Music and singing.
To add depth and significance to your ceremony, a unity ritual can also be added, including ones which can involve any children or other family members, such as a sand ceremony, flower ceremony and broom jumping. Click here for more ideas.

A commitment ceremony is a symbolic celebration of the love and commitment between a couple. It is a non-legally binding ceremony that allows couples to publicly express their devotion to each other and make a commitment to their relationship. Commitment ceremonies are often chosen by couples who unable, or choose not to, legally marry.
During a commitment ceremony, couples can customise the ceremony to reflect their unique values, beliefs and relationship dynamics. The ceremony can include many of the elements offered in a wedding ceremony, such as vows, exchange of rings or other personal symbols of commitment, readings, poems, music and blessings.
As a celebrant, I work in the same way as I would for a wedding or vow renewal ceremony. I take time to get to know the couple to ensure that I'm able to create and deliver a ceremony that reflects their dreams and wishes.
A commitment ceremony is like a wedding ceremony, but without any legalities needing to be completed.
