"Love is friendship that has caught fire"
-Anne Landers
A wedding ceremony should WOW and be made up of your own rules, it should set the vibe and get the party started!
Let’s make something magical happen!
Firstly...
Congratulations
You are about to embark on one of the most exciting times of your life and I would LOVE to be a part of it. You’re here because you want a wedding that’s true to you- stylish, fun, and memorable. You want your guests to walk away thinking ‘that was awesome!’
Together we will create a uniquely authentic ceremony that reflects the fabulous couple you are. It will be full of laughter, stories of love as well as including those special people/dogs in your life.
I love boho weddings- boho to me means freedom. Freedom to embrace the kind of ceremony you have always wanted, but didn’t dare to think was possible, a wedding at sunrise on a beautiful beach, midday in your gorgeous back garden, in your favourite restaurant, or under the stars and fairy lights in a wonderful woodland. Your wedding, your rules.
I love LOVE and translating people’s stories of love into the perfect ceremony
I love making magic happen and have a creative flair just bursting to get out
I love what I do and I have the passion, style, humour, and intuition to make your day truly beautiful and magical.
I will take the time getting to know you and what makes you tick, together we will craft a ceremony that truly captures you, celebrates your love, and brings joy. I have been told my smile lights up a room, I will lead your ceremony with the perfect balance of laughter and meaning.
So if you want a simple, relaxed, romantic ceremony or something a bit more unusual I can help. I love adding symbolic elements into ceremonies, such as handfasting, ring warming or sand ceremonies but am equally excited to try something new, like a cocktail ceremony!
You can relax, I will take care of everything
My perfect wedding is intimate and relaxed, boho with a festival vibe and often in nature or with the outdoors brought in. All my ceremonies are unique, where you get to choose the music, songs and readings. I love learning about everyone’s romantic journey and I am a sucker for a happy ending! I remember EVERYTHING and pay attention to detail, on the day I will make you feel safe, free and excited!
I love keeping up with wedding trends as well as adding symbolic rituals, using reiki to calm nerves or crystals to charge the room. My past life as restaurateur and in event management means that I know about coordination and organisation of events. I will welcome your guests as they arrive, and ensure that everyone involved knows what they are doing and when.
How it works & fees

Let’s chat!
Why not book in a no-obligation chat with me, in person or over zoom, so we can talk about what you are looking for and I can answer any questions you may have about celebrant led ceremonies. This is a great way to see if we click and whether you want me involved in your big day.
-
You want me to be your celebrant! That’s fantastic news!
I will send you over a booking form and a contract and take a 50% deposit to secure your booking.
-
Now the fun can begin!
An initial meeting to get to know you properly, bounce ideas and start planning! Think mood boards, Pinterest – nothing is off limits! In person or over Zoom.
-
Getting to know you!
I will send you a couple’s questionnaire (I promise it will be fun!) for you to tell me your stories, who and how the proposal happened, what you love about each other, your ceremony dreams and wishes, and what drives you mad, so that I can begin to write your story.
-
Time to meet and have a coffee or glass of wine.
In person or over Zoom to dive into your stories and all the little details that make your love story unique. We will then begin to create and design your ceremony working together to make sure everything and everyone you want to include is included. I will listen to what you want while making suggestions about things I know work really well, from rituals to readings and everything in between. The sky’s the limit!
-
Now time for the magic to happen...
I will take all I have learnt from our meetings and the questionnaire to write a totally bespoke draft wedding script for you, filled with lots of love and laughter. We can then pass this draft back and forth a little and redraft as needed (all feedback very welcome, I want you to be 100% happy with it). You can choose to write your own vows, include any readings, poems, music that you love or you can leave that to me. If you would like to include a symbolic element or a ritual I can help find something that resonates with you.

I am right here!

-
Your big day is here!
I will arrive at least an hour before the ceremony, meeting all the key people and ensuring the setup in perfect. I worked in restaurants and event catering for years so you can be confident that, on the day, I will ensure everything runs smoothly. Today will be a magical day in so many ways and your ceremony will be something you and your guests will think back to for years to come, as something unique and perfectly fitting to you as a couple.
