FAQs

A celebrant is a professional who creates and conducts personalised ceremonies for weddings, vow renewals, baby namings, and other life events.

A registrar conducts legal civil ceremonies, following a set script, while a celebrant creates a completely personalised ceremony with no restrictions on content, location, or format.

Currently, celebrant-led weddings are not legally binding in England and Wales. Most couples complete the legal registration separately at a registry office before or after their celebrant-led
ceremony.

Celebrant fees vary depending on experience, location, and the level of personalisation. Prices typically range from £450 to £1500 for a bespoke wedding ceremony.

Most ceremonies last 20 to 45 minutes, depending on what you choose to include. Every ceremony is unique and tailored to your preferences.

Anywhere! Unlike registrars, celebrants are not limited to licensed venues, meaning you can have your ceremony outdoors, at home, in a woodland, on a beach, or any location that’s special to you!

Yes! A celebrant-led ceremony can be as traditional or modern as you like, incorporating religious readings, blessings, symbolic rituals (like handfasting or sand ceremonies), and personal vows.

Of course! Every ceremony I create is completely original—no templates, no rules, and no limitations. Whether you're after something classic, a little offbeat, or even themed, I’ll design a ceremony that reflects you perfectly, written from scratch and inspired by your one-of-a-kind story.

If you'd like a little support, I’m here to help—whether that’s guiding you through the writing process or giving you a gentle push if you’re feeling stuck. Many couples I work with choose to keep their vows a surprise until the big day (with a bit of help from me behind the scenes!). And if writing isn’t your thing, no worries—I can craft them for you.

Yes—if you'd like one! Some couples enjoy having a full rehearsal, while others are happy to go with the flow on the day. By the time your wedding arrives, you'll be familiar with your ceremony script, so most couples choose to skip a full run-through and simply practice the entrance. Whatever you decide, I’ll guide you every step of the way so you feel calm, confident, and ready.

The sooner, the better. Busy dates get snapped up! I commit to only one ceremony a day, and take bookings on a first-come, first-served basis. However, life happens so feel free to reach out at short notice…you just never know!

Easy peasy! Just get in touch and we’ll start with a chat over a cuppa. If we’ve got chemistry, we’ll stick your date in the diary and get started with the ceremony of your dreams!
