My package includes a 'getting to know you' meet-up at your chosen venue. We can then have a number of meetings via phone or Zoom, when I can make changes to your script. I will also liaise with your venue, and any other professionals you are working with. On the day, I'll arrive at least an hour before the event, check in with you- before preparing to deliver the ceremony of your dreams!

I have a free consultation to find out whether I’m in the Celebrant for you and tell you all about what I do. If you book, you will receive a booking form which, once your deposit has been received will be followed by the questionnaire to find out a little bit more about you and what you want from your wedding ceremony. When you’ve completed your questionnaire and returned it, we will set a date to get together to discuss final details and plan the ceremony. We talk about all the options, including unity ceremonies, such as handfasting, wine and sand Ceremonies etc if required, poems, personal touches etc. I’ll then write everything up and send it to you for your approval or edits. We’ll also arrange a read-through to ensure everything is accurate. If you'd prefer to receive the script in writing, this will be provided once the balance is paid, one month before the ceremony. This still allows time for any final adjustments if needed. On the day, I arrive about an hour before to prepare for the ceremony. I include a beautiful bespoke design for your commitment certificate, vow, poem booklets and keepsake script. Unity ceremonies can also be designed to coordinate. I also dress in keeping with colours and themes of your day.

As a professional, independent civil celebrant I work with couples to create and deliver beautifully bespoke ceremonies and wedding rituals. I will meet with my clients as many times as is required before the big day and my service includes as many drafts of the wedding script as is needed to ensure that it is perfect and meets the couples wishes and desires for their special day. My service also includes a rehearsal before the event if this is required, although I am also happy to perform without the rehearsal if this is what the couples wish. Its YOUR day and it needs to be done YOUR way!

From the moment you decide to work with me, you have free access to me. I’m always happy to answer your questions or just chat about weddings in general!

Together, we’ll decide on the best way to communicate (I do love to meet my couples in person if possible!). We’ll then collaborate on the right ceremony style and structure for you. I’ll also spend time gathering stories, ideas, and even what might seem like totally random bits of information — it all helps with the process!

Then off I go to write! I’ll send the script to you for review and approval. Nothing will be set in stone, and we can tweak the ceremony as much as you like. I want you to be completely happy and comfortable with it.

On the day itself, I’ll arrive nice and early to chat with other suppliers, calm any nerves, and make sure the set-up is perfect. I always bring a big supply of tissues and I’m very skilled at buttonhole positioning!

I’ll then take charge of the main event — the ceremony! At the end of the ceremony, I offer couples the opportunity to sign a commemorative certificate before sending them out to a riot of cheers and applause.

I’m also happy to stay after the ceremony to help organise guests for photographs and confetti throwing. Then, when the time is right, I’ll quietly slip away, leaving behind a wealth of memories (and a little extra something on your gift table).

Everyone loves wedding. Make the big day all the more special with a unique ceremony lovingly crafted and based solely around you and your story. Celebrant led ceremonies are 100% bespoke. We will have an initial meeting and then in the lead up to the wedding day itself, there will be periodic get togethers to ensure we are still all on the same page and nothing has been missed or left to chance.

Marriage is an institution steeped in history and tradition, but society is finally waking up to the fact that any couple is far more than just a sum of its parts. It is two unique people, becoming one, wonderfully unique couple. You are not an ‘off the peg’ couple, so why settle for an ‘off the peg’ wedding?

​Live musical tributes are very much optional but can add an extra dash of glitz to the day and of course, the choice of music is entirely up to you. Live instrumentalists can be booked in addition to live vocals, but additional charges will apply.

Upon confirmation of your booking I will schedule a planning meeting with you. This meeting normally happens in person and where possible at the venue so that we can look at the room layout etc. During the meeting I want to get to know you, how you met, who proposed and where etc. and understand what is important to you as well as what you want to have included in your ceremony. This information will help me to write your bespoke service and make sure it reflects the ceremony you've dreamed of. So why not book a 'no obligation' call with me so that we can chat further and see if I am the celebrant or you?
