Wedding Celebrants in Okehampton

Together we will create a ceremony that is unique and personal and that represents who you are as a couple. We can meet either virtually or in person as much as is necessary before the ceremony; I can be flexible and understand the need for everything to be just right for your day. As an ex English teacher, I understand the importance of language so I am happy to write a number of drafts until the wording is perfect for you.
Fun or romantic, traditional or deeply personal, you can set whatever tone you like. On the day, I will have familiarised myself with the venue and will be there 100% to support you in your celebration of love.

Here’s what working with me looks like:
A BESPOKE CEREMONY
Your story, your style and your values are at the heart of everything I write. Whether you’d like something romantic, light-hearted, or a perfect blend of both, your ceremony will feel 100% you.
I’ll support you with writing your vows, choosing readings, and adding symbolic touches like handfasting, ring warming or candle lighting. I can also create keepsake vow booklets and wedding certificates.
PROFESSIONAL, HEARTFELT DELIVERY
With years of experience speaking in front of all kinds of audiences, I bring warmth, calm and connection to every ceremony. I’ll make sure everyone feels included from the front row to the very back. Expect great love, so much laughter and a few happy tears!
SUPPORT EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
From our very first chat right through to your big day, I’ll be by your side. I’ll handle the ceremony details, guide you through the process, and always be just a message, meeting or call away.
On the day itself, I’ll arrive early to make sure everything’s in place, then lead your ceremony with warmth and joy, creating a celebration that your guests will remember for years to come.

I bring personalisation, fun & an overflow of love to every bespoke wedding ceremony, so that it reflects the couple in front of me.
I encourage a warm, relaxed & affectionate atmosphere with you at the centre of your story, whether it's more religious & formal , or non-religious and informal- or a mixture of both!
I'm here to bring your vision to life as it's YOUR story/ YOUR wedding/ YOUR way ! I've got you covered! Indeed, I can help & support you as much (or as little) as you wish.
Initially, I would begin with a 'zero-obligation' chat, where you can ask me whatever you wish & I can get to know you & the type of ceremony you envision.
Should you wish to go ahead, I will send you my questionnaire & from then onwards, begin writing & crafting your bespoke ceremony, that includes all the things that make you click as a couple.
Furthermore, I tailor your love story so it is told your way.
The number of e mails, zooms, & meet-ups are entirely up to you, so you feel confident & secure knowing your script is unique & absolutely perfect for you both.
I never book more than one wedding a day, so I am all yours to make your journey into married life as smooth & full of love & laughter as possible.
Finally, I am genuine , dedicated & passionate about delivering a heart-felt , often humorous, ceremony & moreover, I will be there, by your side every step of the way, allowing you to enjoy this important, memorable day.
Guests will be left saying, "That was just SO them!"

I specialise in crafting and delivering beautifully personalised wedding ceremonies. I take the time to truly get to know you as a couple - listening to your story, understanding what matters most to you, and discovering what you envision for your ceremony. From there, I carefully create a ceremony that reflects your personalities, celebrates your unique love story, and captures the atmosphere and feeling you want for your wedding day.

Alongside this, my role is to support you throughout the journey, ensuring you feel relaxed, excited, and confident in the lead-up to your celebration.

I'd love to chat to you about your ideas so let's get a call booked in!
