Wedding Celebrants in Essex

I love to meet couples for a long, relaxed chat to get to know you, and explore together exactly what you want from your ceremony. This can be face to face or online. I then draft your script and can give suggestions for vows, readings etc.. I provide the script for you to approve and edit about 2 months before the ceremony. On the day I arrive in plenty of time, settle any nerves, welcome your guests and deliver a heart-warming and personal wedding ceremony.

This package includes:

Hand Fasting
Sand Blending
Unity Candle
Vow Cards

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).

Whether you have been married for one year or fifty years. A vow renewal ceremony can be the most romantic and special way to tell the world that you are still utterly committed to one another. It is a great opportunity to refresh your commitments and promises to each other – this time done in a way that is unique and personal to you as a couple.

My fee includes:

- In person/virtual meeting with you both following on from the couples questions I will have sent you beforehand. This in itself can be a very enjoyable part of the whole process!

- Write a bespoke and personal ceremony which would reflect your story and style as a couple.

- Ritual ( visual element) exploration, guidance and brainstorming if this is something you decide to go for. My job is to listen to you, your vision and your opinion. Following on from that I am here to help you, guide you and then write and curate your ceremony. We will achieve your vision, your ceremony, I promise!

- Liaising and coordinating with your venue, suppliers and wedding party before and on the day of your ceremony to ensure that everything goes smoothly and you can both sit back and relax with the knowledge that your ceremony is in safe hands! On your wedding day, I always aim to arrive at least one hour or more in advance of the ceremony.

- I will be on hand from now until your ceremony via zoom and what's app whenever you need to chat/ have questions to ask.

- As a special keepsake, you will receive a keepsake box including a printed copy of your ceremony script and ceremony certificate to sign.

My fees for all of the above are £650.

I assure you that your ceremony will be modern, beautiful, relaxed and yet fun truly reflecting you as a couple.

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?
