Let's Celebrate! Your Day, Your Way!
Why choose a Civil Celebrant for your Wedding?
You and your partner are one-of-a-kind, a unique blend of quirks, dreams, and inside jokes.
How you met, tomber amoureux/fell in love and decided to commit to one another, is completely exclusive to you! So your wedding ceremony should celebrate exactly that.
Do you ever feel like traditional wedding ceremonies may lack a personal touch, feel off-the-shelf, and let’s face it, be a bit leadránach/boring? Your guests have heard it all before. That’s what leaves them sneaking glances at their phones, and turns your wedding ceremony into “ the part to get through”... before the real fun starts.
NO, GRACIAS!
Instead, would you like someone who will sit down with you in advance, learn what makes you tick, find out what you might be worried about, and understand what exactly you want for your exclusive ceremony?
Then call on me as your Civil Celebrant!
What do I offer?
As it's one of the BIGGEST Days of your lives, do you want that someone to craft a ceremony that will truly reflect you as a couple, that will have you and your guests laughing out loud, reminiscing, possibly even shedding a tear or two?...a ceremony that will be remembered for all the right reasons?
THAT’s where I come in!
Because... once you have completed your legal paperwork (see here), you are free to celebrate your Marriage or Civil Partnership anyway, anywhere and anyhow with me!

I love learning and meeting people
Having worked internationally in the USA, Dubai, The Whitsundays Australia, Dublin, London and Belfast I love to meet new people from all walks-of- life and hear their stories. I love hearing how people met, fell in love in the most unlikely ways and made a life together. I love learning and experiencing life’s variety of cultures and languages.
So if you dream of:
-
An intimate sunrise ceremony on one of your favourite mountain-tops or
-
saying your vows on a romantic sandy beach at sunset
-
or a twilight-ceremony in the forest
-
or a night-time ceremony at a castle
-
or a mid-afternoon ceremony by the waterfall
-
or a marquee in your garden
-
or nuptials at noon in a rustic barn on your farm
-
or in your favourite village-hall, music club, pub or restaurant
-
or a chic-city ceremony in an Art Gallery/Museum/ Botanical Gardens
-
or on a boat, a plane, a hot-air-balloon... the skies are quite literally, the limit! (as long as it’s safe and legal, let’s do it)!

The Art of Crafting the Perfect “I Do”
-
You get in touch by completing the brief Enquire Form or simply phone for a free no-obligation chat. We can then chat over the phone, Zoom, meet for a coffee, G&T... - whatever gets the creative juices flowing.
-
I can answer any questions you have about independent wedding celebrants, the pros and cons of this kind of ceremony, the process...you can ask whatever you want.
- If you decide that you’d like to move forward with me as your celebrant/wedding-sidekick, we can start collaborating our ideas. The kind of ceremony you’d like, the location, the format...just reflecting on what we can do to make your ceremony personalised, special and fun.
- Prices: Rest assured I will provide you with a full-quote based on the information you provide to me during our no-obligation chat If all goes well we will put a contract in place and then make some magic. Sounds like fun? It is!! Again - Zoom, email, coffee, whatever suits.
-
Next, I take your ideas, insights and preferences away and work on them to come up with a ceremony plan, and a set of vows, that absolutely reflect you as a couple. Together, we’ll come up with a script that your guests recognise as truly you. (If you have chosen a hot-air balloon, I may have enquired about insurance policies.)
- Remember, it’s your ceremony - you call the shots. But overall - here’s the main thing to remember: organising special moments in your life should be enjoyable, with minimal stress. And a big part of that is communication: I will always be available to you by email, at the end of a phone, Zoom, and for extra meetings to help put your mind at ease, so you enjoy the process of creating your perfect day.
- Regarding rehearsals, some people want them, others are happy to simply just turn-up on the day. We can talk about what feels right for you. What’s important is that you feel confident and comfortable on the day. Overall, it’s about....creating a ceremony that feels like a hygge/warm hug, a day that is unapologetically, unmistakably you.
When The Big Day Arrives
Tóg go bog é! – Relax! I’m going to be with you every step of the way.
I’ll be at the venue bright and early, at least an hour ahead, ensuring that the ceremony space is just right. Expect me to gently mingle with your guests as they settle in, meet the venue staff, even hand out confetti, Order of Services, or anything else I can do to be of any last-minute help to you!
Once the ceremony wraps up, I will slip off quietly, leaving you to celebrate your special day with your family and friends. And a little something from me - I’ll leave a copy of your bespoke script as a treasured keepsake...a little memento of The Day Your Love Story took centre stage.
Você está sentindo isso como eu? Are you feeling it like I am?
Then, let's chat it over - I would love the opportunity to discuss your requirements with you, so drop me a line today.
