Your Ceremony, Your Way
Creating personal, meaningful ceremonies for every kind of love story!
I am a firm believer that your wedding day should feel completely, unmistakably you. As an independent celebrant, I'm not tied to a script or a religious structure, which means your ceremony can be exactly as traditional, unconventional, romantic, or fun as you want it to be.
Whether you're planning an intimate elopement, a big celebration with all your family, or something entirely unique, I'll help you create a ceremony that tells your story.
How about :
on a hill in your shorts and t-shirt
on a beach with a Mexican band
an LGBTQIA+ flamboyant ceremony with confetti cannons
fireworks in a castle grounds
your back garden Caribbean style
a barn or a farm with marshmallows and sheep
a BBQ with an Hawaiian theme
fancy dress or themed
pets involved
an intimate ceremony with 8 people or 88
a renewal of vows for a 50th wedding anniversary
Whatever you choose, How exciting!
I’m there! Count me in!
I'm proud to celebrate all love stories, including LGBTQI+, older couples, couples together 10 months or 10 years.
Whether you follow a particular faith, blend two different faiths or cultures, hold no religious beliefs at all, or simply want a ceremony that reflects you rather than any tradition, every ceremony I create is entirely personal, with no fixed script or requirement to include (or exclude) anything that doesn't feel like you
Being Neurodiverse myself, I am thrilled to be offering ceremonies to absolutely anyone too, who is also Neurodiverse. My hyperfocus means that you received the most personalised, hand-written, heart-led beautiful ceremony exclusive to you, perfected with all the detail!
Celebrant-led ceremonies are not legally binding yet - but that may change - (see Marriage Reform notes). You will need to book in with a Registrar office if you wish to have a legal ceremony - this could be with 2 witnesses as a statutory legal part or with larger numbers. Ideal to speak to your local registry office. Find your local Registry office here. https://www.gov.uk/register-offices
Celebrant-led ceremonies deliver the symbolic elements that make your memories stay beyond the actual ceremony. Celebrating in the outfits, the dancing, the joining of a family, flowers and creating those unforgettable photographs and lasting memories with family and friends.
Your magical day!

Celebrant attending Packages
Vow Renewals
Whether you're celebrating 1 year, 10 or 50, a vow renewal is a chance to stand together again and reaffirm what you promised, with all you've learned and lived since.
The back garden is a popular choice or even a local barn with afternoon tea and cake.
Relaxed, stress-free personalised to match the magic of your love story.
Did you want to get the family dog involved? Marquee, Manor House, Gardens?
A small intimate ceremony or large
as life!
Now is your chance!
All options carry the emotion, laughter, joy and celebration of a wedding ceremony!
Bespoke Wedding Ceremonies
A fully personal ceremony written just for you, this is where your love story takes centre stage.
Paired with a simple legal registration elsewhere, this is your chance to say your vows exactly where, and exactly how you want. A ceremony to look back on in future years ahead.
Did you want to involve the children, your nephew to read a poem or your best friend’s daughter to sing? Symbolic elements too? At a location that you choose? It does not have to be a licensed venue.
You may wish to have a tequila shot ceremony, or ring blessing just before the kiss!
Children love to be involved!
Commitment Ceremonies
For couples who want to publicly declare their love and commitment, without the legal marriage element : a commitment ceremony offers all the emotion, ritual, and celebration of a wedding, entirely on your own terms.
Less expense, fun, romantic. Did you marry abroad and you wish to celebrate with a celebrant? Want to have Llamas? A picnic? Fancy dress? Fireworks? A farm location or barn? Handfasting to confirm your love?
Even younger couples now are having commitment ceremonies whilst they either decide to not legally marry or whilst they save for a larger ceremony later

Script Only Writing Service
(from 8-15 minutes)
from £225
Celebrant non-attendance
Do you find writing a challenge?
Would you like someone with experience to take the pressure off your shoulders whilst you concentrate on other important aspects of your ceremony planning?
Often during times of emotions, joy, sadness, overwhelm and excitement, we can lose track of time and before we know it - the day has arrived for your loved one’s ceremony or your own.
I have a vast amount of experience with writing, particularly in the days when I completed my Midwifery Degree, late nights, research and computer technology in the mix.
With my creative writing experience also as an independent celebrant, we have been taught when to pause, when to change emphasis, inflection, tonation, pitch, tone and voice. With my guidance, we can ensure your words are woven into your ceremony beautifully. Small nuances make all the difference. Occasionally a couple may wish for a special family member to read out and deliver a script and become the “Story-teller”. There may be a couple of speakers such as an older sibling, a teenager or grandparent who means the world to you.
I offer a script-only service where you can advise me when completing the questionnaire and during our information gathering. I fill in the gaps with some humour, pauses where necessary and timings.
Or if you wish to have support with vows and confidence-building on delivering them with poise and energy, so you capture the room, I can help.
What's Included :
A relaxed, no-pressure initial chat (your Discovery Call)
A fully personalised ceremony script, written just for you
All amendments and revisions
As a clinical hypnotherapist, trained in CBT/NLP and psychotherapy, as a breath coach and mindset coach too, I offer guidance with your body language to support you or your guests in delivering poems, readings or a full script.
I can support with how and where to stand, speaking with your personality, body language, hydration (yes to stop that dry mouth if nervous too!) eye contact, pace, pauses, pitch, projection, pronunciation and enunciation, filler words, breathing support, intonation, anxiety and emotion. The key is to practice, practice, practice!
Plus I offer advice on how to open (hook), call backs (referencing previous comments) and closing words written. (Optional)
Public speaking is what I am used to, having spoken at conferences for midwives and consultants and for Mental Health groups I have chaired. Allow me to offer my experience to support you and your guests with confidence-building.
You also receive a supporting guide on delivering the best speech, script or vows and a cheat sheet on hints, tips and tricks on public speaking.
Additional Extra : Folder (Optional)

Writing Vows Guidance Service
There is a real beauty in writing your own vows. Finding words that are truly yours.
There may be times where you feel that public speaking is nerve-wracking! I used to, but it does get easier.
I am very used to public speaking with all the roles I have played in my career! However, for many people it does not come so easily. The thought of people, guests, family and friends - those who are looking at you on your special day are expecting or waiting for some beautiful words of affirmation and love. For some it comes naturally, for others not so much. Why worry over this! There is a solution.
Pop me a message and I can help you with some guidance. Please don’t use AI. Your partner certainly wants to hear your own words from the heart, with what makes them feel special to you and how they have changed or enhanced your life. Deep and meaningful words don’t always flow particularly during stressful anxiety provoking moments under pressure.
I certainly do not use AI for my script writing - When I gather information AI does not know a couple like I do when it comes to ceremonies and personalised writing.
The beauty of personal vows are that nobody has experienced your emotions, your world, your love with your own lens. I don’t write vows for you - I can guide you into what structure would perhaps work for you, how to open, how to tell a story and how to close with meaning.
What's Included :
A relaxed, no-pressure initial chat (Phone call or zoom)
Vow structure guide framework to support your delivery of your vows (opening, memory, promises, closing)
Guide on how long they should be, humour and story telling.
A call or zoom check-in 1 week before your ceremony to guide you to be “wedding ready”!
You also receive a supporting guide on delivering the best speech, script or vows and a cheat sheet on hints, tips and tricks on public speaking.
Poems, Readings & Music
Sometimes the right words already exist, and sometimes they need to be written from scratch, just for you. Bespoke poems, or sourced music and readings are my thing.
If you wish to have a personalised poem for your parents wedding, your best friend, your groom, your bride, or something to support your love for your first born and their new partner - how wonderful to start off the ceremony with your ideas that can also be included.
Also :
One consultation call to gather memories, stories, and the tone you want, warm, funny, reflective, etc.
I offer 3 ways to help:
A Personal Poem, Written for You
An original poem, crafted around your story, your memories, and the people at the heart of it. Nothing generic, nothing borrowed, just words written for you. Time to revise if required.Help Finding the Right Reading
If you'd prefer something already written, I'll help you find a poem or reading that feels right for your day, drawing on a wide range of wedding, naming or funeral readings to find the one that fits.Music Guidance on whatever your venue will allow
Whichever you choose, the words will feel exactly right for the moment.
Tips on how to be the most confident when delivering your poem or reading.
Personal Written Poem - £20

Whether this is for your arrival from the car, to the venue, or the outdoor ceremony itself.

If you prefer, your celebration can take you out into the wider landscape, whether that's a countryside backdrop, a lakeside first look, or hillside photos, he can capture that too.
Or you may just want a brief few moments with each guest, or around the gardens.
YOU DECIDE!
What happens on the day?
A Sample Wedding Ceremony Day
(if a venue)
(Beach, Micro ceremonies or Elopements would look similar however decor, audio and logistics may look different due to location and weather)
Every ceremony is different, but this is what a typical day might look like. Timings are just to give you a guide.
11:30pm | Your Celebrant arrives (90 mins before ceremony) I arrive early so everything is calm and ready before your guests walk in. This gives me time to:
Park close to the venue and get set up
Set up your flower arch, if you’ve booked one
Light candles, if the venue allows it
Check the decor and the table settings for signing the certificate
Test the microphones and speakers, do a sound check and go through your music schedule
Check in with your suppliers, including your florist, registrar (if they’re joining us), photographer and videographer, so everyone knows where to be
Agree Drone positioning, if you’ve chosen that as an add-on
Switch to your Plan B if the weather changes
Keep your guests settled and occupied if you’re running late
Make sure your wedding party feels relaxed and everything is prepared in advance
1:00pm | Guests arrive
Family and friends find their seats and settle in. Soft music plays while everyone gets comfortable.
1:30pm | Partner(s) arrive My role to check on both of you beforehand
Any last-minute nerves are calmed, and everyone gets ready for the moment. My job to calm you with my mindset coaching !
2:00pm | Ceremony & Music begins
The first partner walks in, followed by the second, or you can walk in together or your bridal party 1st - however you’d like to do it. Music, family and your wedding party can all be part of this.
2:05pm | Welcome and introduction (phones switched off if you prefer an unplugged ceremony phone-free)
I welcome your guests, share what today means and set a warm, relaxed tone.
2:10pm | Your story
A personal telling of your story as a couple, your challenges, funny moments, your joys, how you met, who proposed, where, when, what you plans are for your future, written by me from what you share with me beforehand.
2:20pm | Readings or poems
Readings, scriptures, stories or poems chosen by you, or read by someone special.
2:30pm | Declarations, promises and vows
The wording, and promises followed by your own personal vows if you’d like them.
2:30pm | Exchange of rings
Rings are exchanged, with your own wording if you wish.
2:35pm | Symbolic ritual (if you wish)
A meaningful moment for you both, like a handfasting, sand blending ceremony, candle lighting, cake tasting/sharing or wine box capsule. We’ll pick something that suits you.
2:45pm | Final moments, closing words and first kiss
Your ceremony is complete and everyone celebrates.
2:50pm | Signing of the certificate (Photograph opportunity)
You sign while guests enjoy music, then you walk back down the aisle/path/gardens together.
3:00pm | Photos and confetti
Group photos, confetti and a drink, then the celebrations begin.
