Your Big Day deserves to be remembered
Your wedding day is a major milestone and the moment you say your vows will be etched in your mind forever.
I'll make sure you remember it for the right reasons.
More than just a celebrant
I am in this for love. The love of writing and coordinating beautiful ceremonies and of giving couples the Big Day they dream of.
I have a diploma in family celebrancy, a degree in journalism and a career in content production, which leave me well equipped to tell your story in an engaging, impactful way.
What’s more, if you need additional support to plan your wedding, I can offer advice, put you in touch with suppliers and generally be a sounding board for any ideas you might have.

Ceremonies as unique as you are
The MOST important thing to me is that you have the wedding day that you want. Celebrant (also known as Humanist) weddings are a great alternative to church or registry office weddings, offering complete freedom to craft a ceremony that you want. Without the restrictions of legal terminology, your wedding ceremony will better reflect your personalities.
I can provide as much or as little direction as you like from liaising with the venue to providing readings or working with you to write vows.
Straight, gay, bisexual, trans...
Whoever.
On a mountain, on a boat, in a woodland...
Wherever.
Dawn, midday, dusk, twilight...
Whenever.
Re-enacting your favourite film, in fancy dress...
However.
How it works
Step 1. You get in touch. We talk about what you'd like, I tell you more about what to expect.
Step 2. We meet in person or via video chat and I gather details that help me to build the ceremony.
Step 3. I do a first draft of the ceremony and then we run through it and firm up the details. I can read it through or keep the wording secret until the wedding (your choice).
Step 4. If you choose to, and at a time that suits you, we hold a rehearsal.
Step 5. Your Big Day! I'll never double book on a single day - I'm all yours. So whatever hiccups might occur, you can be sure your ceremony will go ahead.
