Wedding Celebrants in Shropshire

We'll talk, online and/or in person, as often as we need. Gradually, between us, we'll build up a plan of everything that will happen - from entrances, to music, to words, to rings, to different symbolic gestures, to where we'll all stand. I'll learn about your life and your values and write a ceremony that tells your story and guides you through making your promises to each other. You'll be in complete control and will always be able to edit or change anything... and, if you want, I can keep bits of it as a surprise for you. We'll often meet up at the venue the day before to check everything's ok. And then, of course, I'll come on the day with my best speaking voice and conduct proceedings!

Cherry is an independent celebrant from Birmingham uk.

Certified by the Academy of Modern Celebrancy to deliver rock n’ roll style weddings that break a few rules.

At the heart of any ceremony is you and your story, and it’s one not hold back on!

Traditional or off the wall? Religion or pop culture? Subtle or loud & proud - your ceremony will be written and curated how you want it to be.

Want to have your dog walk you down the aisle while your favourite song is playing - easy.
Want to dress up, cosplay or masquerade - why not?
Want to have the whole room laughing one minute and crying happy tears the next? - its’ n the bag!

Kick off with a 20-minute or so consultation with Cherry to talk about your ideas, you’ll then have a longer meeting face-to-face or over Zoom/Teams or in person to start planning.

The script will be written and sent to you for amendments.

You’ll have a constant WhatsApp connection, perfect for those 2 am “I just remembered Auntie Carol wants to do a reading…” or “actually we met in 2011, not 2012” moments - allowing you to carry on your wedding planning stress-free!

The package includes an additional face-to-face meeting, and this can be at home, a pub, a coffee14 shop, wherever you feel comfortable talking about the big day.

We can also do a venue visit with a mini rehearsal if required, so you know where to stand, sit, etc. and put your mind at ease that you won’t be surprised on the day!

I’d be happy to also include a symbolic moment in the service, this could be handfasting, a sand ceremony, warming of the rings or something 100% unique and made up by you to symbolise your bond.

Other services include “Master of Ceremonies” style - introductions, hosting the speeches or an activity and welcoming you to the dancefloor for the first dance - whatever style of dance you choose. This is charged at £50 per hour when booked with a wedding.

Having a celebrant allows you to personalise your elopement ceremony, so every single one is entirely different and devised with you in mind. It can incorporate a range of symbolic elements to make sure it reflects your personalities and what is important to you, as well as being sincere and heartfelt. With me, I’ll have worked closely with you in the lead up to the big day to make sure it is ‘just so’ and you will have somebody who genuinely cares about you leading your ceremony. And let’s not forget…with a celebrant you can have your elopement ceremony absolutely anywhere, indoors or outside, at any time - the choice is entirely yours!

So, how does my process work? Following an initial introduction call and booking, I will email you several documents to help prepare you for the planning process - these include questions to consider for your ceremony and inspirational ideas.

A few months before your ceremony date, we will meet (preferably) in person, allowing me to find out all about you and your journey together. We will also discuss the finer details of the ceremony and how you want it to look.

Following this planning meeting, I will then draft your script and send to you for approval. It is really important to me that you are happy with your ceremony script; once you've read through this first draft, you can make suggestions of changes and amendments which I will happily edit so everything is 'just so.'

A few days before your ceremony date, we will have a catch up call to iron out any final details, ask/answer questions and I can talk you through the ceremony, easing any early nerves!

On the day, I will arrive with plenty of time to help prepare and - having delivered a beautifully heartfelt and personalised ceremony - I will leave you with a special keepsake script.

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.
