I'm a humanist celebrant, trained and accredited by Humanists UK. That means my ceremonies are non-religious. Instead of being about religion or about the law, they're about you - your lives, your values, your story, your love, the community around you. What's great about that is that it means everyone in the room is interested and feels included, whatever their beliefs might be. I specialise in helping people who feel a bit nervous about the whole thing. Your wedding is one of the most personal things you'll ever go through in front of an audience, after all! We'll take things easily, you'll never feel pressurised or stressed about the ceremony, and you don't have to do lots of talking or make long detailed vows if you don't want to. (But you can if you want!) I'll be on your side through it all. I take a pride in making sure the language in all my ceremonies is LGBTQ-inclusive, and I'll always want to work with you to make sure everyone feels welcome, no matter who they are.
The main thing people say about me, and that I take a pride in, is how much everybody enjoys my weddings. There is plenty of fun, lightness and reasons to smile and laugh in everyone's story and, as you'll see in my photos, I love bringing those things out. I also love getting to know you properly - as that's what makes a lovely ceremony. My aim is that by the time your wedding comes round, people are asking how many years we've known each other. I think everyone's life is interesting (even if you don't think it is yourself!) One of the lovely things about writing a wedding ceremony is finding the little moments in your story that led to everything else. The tiny events that, if they'd gone differently, would have changed the whole thing. It's what makes life magical! And I think it's a huge privilege to go through this journey with you. All the planning, discussions, writing, coming to a rehearsal (if you want), meeting the wedding party, standing up there with you at the nervous moment just before things begin, telling a bit of your story and leading you through making promises to one another in front the people who mean the most to each other. It's amazing.
