Having a celebrant allows you to personalise your elopement ceremony, so every single one is entirely different and devised with you in mind. It can incorporate a range of symbolic elements to make sure it reflects your personalities and what is important to you, as well as being sincere and heartfelt. With me, I’ll have worked closely with you in the lead up to the big day to make sure it is ‘just so’ and you will have somebody who genuinely cares about you leading your ceremony. And let’s not forget…with a celebrant you can have your elopement ceremony absolutely anywhere, indoors or outside, at any time - the choice is entirely yours!
So, how does my process work? Following an initial introduction call and booking, I will email you several documents to help prepare you for the planning process - these include questions to consider for your ceremony and inspirational ideas.
A few months before your ceremony date, we will meet (preferably) in person, allowing me to find out all about you and your journey together. We will also discuss the finer details of the ceremony and how you want it to look.
Following this planning meeting, I will then draft your script and send to you for approval. It is really important to me that you are happy with your ceremony script; once you've read through this first draft, you can make suggestions of changes and amendments which I will happily edit so everything is 'just so.'
A few days before your ceremony date, we will have a catch up call to iron out any final details, ask/answer questions and I can talk you through the ceremony, easing any early nerves!
On the day, I will arrive with plenty of time to help prepare and - having delivered a beautifully heartfelt and personalised ceremony - I will leave you with a special keepsake script.
