This is a question I get asked all the time. As a Celebrant I am not bound by any religion, statute or doctrine, meaning I am able to construct and perform completely personalised ceremonies for clients. Whilst I may have a personal belief, these beliefs are just that: personal.

Most officiants, religious and registrars have rules to abide by, my Celebrant ceremonies can contain any wording at all, whether it be religious, spiritual or personal. It is often a combination of all three, but ultimately, it’s whatever the client wants.

Celebrant ceremonies are about those who the ceremony is for, telling the story of the client, not the ideologies of religion. They will often include some humour and celebrate the person or couples’ life and are usually personalised and unique.

As a Celebrant I am a highly professional and accomplished public speaker and can deliver ceremonies in a variety of venues and situations, from meadows and fields to chapels and village halls, whatever the occasion I lead ceremonies wherever the client chooses.

• Weddings

When couples are looking for a less formal, relaxed inclusive atmosphere, or indeed plan to marry at a venue which does not hold a marriage licence, then a Celebrant can be a great option.

Although I can create and conduct personalised weddings, a Celebrant cannot legally marry a couple. They’d need to visit a registrar in order to arrange the more formal side of things.

You can also choose a Celebrant for:

• Vow renewals
• Naming ceremonies
• Divorce celebrations
• Gender reassignment
• Adoption

Living between Coventry and Rugby, I am ideally placed to conduct services in local areas such as Leamington Spa, Warwick and Stratford Upon Avon, as well as across the counties of Warwickshire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire and the West Midlands.

When you use an Independent Celebrant, the choice is all yours.

From initially choosing the Celebrant, to deciding what type of ceremony you want; you are in charge.

Your Independent Celebrant is a trained professional. They will take time to get to know you, so that not only will you have a friendly, supportive and smiling face waiting for you at your ceremony, but you will be totally relaxed knowing what they say, will be completely bespoke and tailored to you as a family or couple.

But what you might not know, is that you with an Independent Celebrant you also have the freedom to decide:

What you want to say, or be said about you

Working with your Celebrant you can decide what words/phrases you would like to be used in your wedding ceremony. Your Celebrant will spend time with you getting to know you and will write a ceremony that reflects you as a couple. You can tweak it until you are 100% happy with it.

Who you want to be involved

You can invite as many, or as few, people as you would like to help you celebrate your special day. And if you want others to do readings, sing or actively take part in other activities, then ask them, remember this is your opportunity to have a totally unique event.

Any other individual elements you may want to be included in your ceremony

Once again the choice is yours when it comes to themes or rituals. There are plenty to choose from, everything from handfasting to sand and from candles to jumping the broom.

Plus, if you need your Wedding Celebrant to coordinate their outfit to match the theme or colours of your wedding, then you only have to ask.

Your Day, No Limits

If you want someone to create a ceremony that’s all you, then engage the services of a Wedding Celebrant. They will be with you every step of the way, making what so often can be a slightly awkward and stuffy ceremony into something joyful, heartwarming and above all unique. After all, when it comes to the best day of your life, the only limit is your imagination!

I cover a wide area, living in the heart of Warwickshire it is just a few miles into Leicestershire, Oxfordshire, Worcestershire, Northamptonshire and I also travel further north into Staffordshire and the West Midlands.

I am in touching distance of the lovely towns of Leamington Spa, Kenilworth, Stratford, Warwick and Rugby.

Personalisation

From the script to your vows, the ceremony will be all about you and your family, each part of the script is unique and written for you.
