Your lighthearted, heartfelt wedding

It starts with with what I call a ‘Discovery Call.’ This is an informal, no obligation chat to get to know each other. I learn a little about your plans and you ask all the questions you want to ask me.

Once we know the chemistry is there and you decide you’d like me as your wedding celebrant, you pay 50% of the ceremony cost to confirm your booking.

As a wedding celebrant, I only conduct one ceremony per day. So once you’ve paid the deposit and completed the clear, straightforward contract, I’m all yours. Diary closed, no further bookings on your big day!

I’ll likely recommend you both complete my special ‘Couple’s Quiz’. Nothing heavy, this just acts as a way for us to start discussing what you might like to include in your ceremony.

The couples I work with tell me that the quiz is fun to do, especially with a glass of their favourite poison in their hand! They often decide to complete it separately, so they can enjoy the surprise of discovering each other’s responses.

Next we meet up, in person ideally or online if it's easier for you. We’ll discuss your quiz answers, your love story, and work together to develop ideas for your ceremony.

We can chat about the words, the music, the readings and the symbolic elements you may want to include. Not sure what you want? Not to worry. I’ll bring the guidance, knowledge and inspiration you need to create the magic.

However you want the vibe to feel, we’ll work together to create a ceremony that truly reflects you.

By now I’ll be buzzing to get to work on your script! I’ll hide myself away in my office, armed with all the information we’ve discussed…and a bowlful of snacks. Inspired by the leafy outlook and the right kind of music, I’ll craft your one-of-a-kind ceremony. None of the generic, cut-and-paste stuff.

You’ll get the first script draft within four weeks of our meeting.

I want you to be thrilled with your script. Which means you get to request as many edits and changes as you would like until you are 100% happy.

We can meet again to run through the initial draft and add further details to your plans.

I aim to have finished the script with you a minimum of one month before the ceremony takes place. That way, you get some breathing space between agreeing the script and your wedding, and it will feel fresh and exciting on the big day.

I'll continue to be on hand over the phone, via email or online meeting to answer any queries or discuss any finer points in the run up to your wedding day.

We can also run a rehearsal at your venue if required/possible (optional extra).

I’ll be at the venue a minimum of one hour before the start of the ceremony to say hello to you and your loved ones involved in the ceremony (human and animal), and calm any nerves.

I’ll help set up, check the finer details with your other suppliers and run a sound check. I’ll greet and guide your guests and then, with the greatest of pleasure, I’ll deliver your ceremony for you. I’ll be the one with the big book, wide smile and tissues.

After the ceremony, you’ll get a presentation copy of your script and a commemorative wedding certificate for you to treasure.
