Wedding Celebrants in Hastings

As a professional, independent civil celebrant I work with couples to create and deliver beautifully bespoke ceremonies and wedding rituals. I will meet with my clients as many times as is required before the big day and my service includes as many drafts of the wedding script as is needed to ensure that it is perfect and meets the couples wishes and desires for their special day. My service also includes a rehearsal before the event if this is required, although I am also happy to perform without the rehearsal if this is what the couples wish. Its YOUR day and it needs to be done YOUR way!

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.

There is considerable scope for creativity and personalisation in a wedding ceremony; my role as your celebrant will be to create for you a ceremony that’s about both of you.

There’s no set script, I will write a tailored ceremony based on conversations I have with you and your partner. I will also discuss with you and develop any ideas you may want to incorporate into your wedding.

If you’ve ever dreamt about a wedding set to the theme of the movie “Titanic”, one based on the songs of Meatloaf or would prefer something a little more akin to a traditional style of marriage ceremony all of these ideas and more can be part of your wedding if you wish.
