The First Act is perfect for couples who want a beautifully written, completely personalised wedding ceremony but already have someone in mind or lined up to deliver it on the day.

Using my signature plan & play process, I'll get to know your story, personalities and relationship before crafting a bespoke ceremony script from scratch. Together, we'll create a ceremony that feels meaningful, engaging and completely true to who you are as a couple.

You'll receive support with personal vows, symbolic elements and ceremony structure, along with two rounds of edits to make sure everything feels just right. I also offer a video call with your chosen ceremony presenter to help them feel confident bringing your story to life, alongside some useful delivery tips.

Ideal for destination weddings, friend-led ceremonies or couples looking for professional ceremony writing without celebrant delivery.

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.

This package offers the option for costume (Peaky Blinders or Pirate).

Wine or Sand Ceremonies and Hand fasting as standard, included in the price

It all starts with a video call. Ask questions, it’s super important that you choose the right celebrant.
If you’re sure that’s me ( awesome ) and once the deposit is paid we will need to meet to go through how you want your ceremony to be. What vibe you’re after. I’ll give you a questionnaire to fill out which will enable me to write your story, this will sit in the middle of your ceremony,
I’ll help you with vows and words around the ring exchange.
Once I’ve written your personalised script I’ll send it over to you for edits, so that between us we nail it.
I’ll be at your venue at least one hour prior to the start time, advise and stage manage as necessary.
I’ll liaise with the venue co-ordination so the end result is flawless.
