Lauren is a fantastic person to work with. I would recommend her celebrant services to anyone. 🙂
We booked Lauren to be our celebrant for our festival themed wedding. Lauren was extremely communicative and responsive throughout the entire process. She was incredibly supportive and flexible on our wedding day - in particular when we had to make a last minute change to the location of the ceremony due to the weather. Lauren created a beautiful, personal ceremony which had almost all of our guests in tears. We would highly recommend Lauren for anyone wanting to have a celebrant ceremony for their wedding. Thank you Lauren!

Hi Hannah and Dean, thank you so much for your lovely feedback, very kind, it was a fabulous day, I am over the moon that you chose me, wishing you lots of love and happiness !! xxx Wow, where do I even begin? Booking Lauren as our wedding celebrant was hands down the best decision we made for our special day! Jake and I needed someone to conduct our ceremony in front of our family and friends, and Lauren was absolutely perfect. From start to finish, her communication was exceptional, guiding us through the process with ease. As we weren’t entirely sure how the ceremony should run, Lauren provided helpful suggestions while reassuring us that we could tailor it exactly to our vision. Her flexibility was a dream come true—she understood we wanted something relaxed and personal, rather than overly formal or lengthy.
Lauren went above and beyond, even traveling to our venue the night before to rehearse with us. This thoughtful gesture helped ensure everything went smoothly on the day, and it really did! We shared laughs during the rehearsal, which made the experience feel so warm and genuine—exactly what we were hoping for. By the end of the wedding, it truly felt like Lauren was part of the family, and I was genuinely sad to see her leave.
She listened to our love story with such care and turned it into a ceremony that was heartfelt, unique, and simply perfect. Jake and I felt so special throughout the entire process. Lauren is an incredible celebrant, and we are beyond thrilled that we chose her to be part of our day. Thank you, Lauren, for everything—you made our wedding unforgettable!

Thank you so much for your lovely review, it was great to meet you and I am over the moon that you had such a fabulous day ! x In April 2025, we were lucky enough to have Lauren conduct our wedding in Sorrento, Italy. From the moment we first discussed her being our celebrant to the big day itself, we were blown away by her unique blend of professionalism and reassuring warmth.
Her affable approach made the process of creating our dream ceremony an absolute breeze. Lauren took the time to understand our story and craft a ceremony that truly reflected who we are as a couple. Every word she spoke on the day felt authentic, meaningful, and perfectly us. So many of our guests were moved by how heartfelt the ceremony was—many remarking that they hadn’t realised wedding ceremonies could include such personalised vows, readings, and backstory, as they’d never experienced anything like it before.
What could have been a nerve-wracking moment became one of complete joy and connection, thanks to Lauren’s calming presence and the beautiful atmosphere she created. We truly can’t thank her enough for playing such an important role in our day. She didn’t just perform a ceremony—she gave us a moment we’ll treasure forever.
Needless to say, we highly—highly—recommend her. Book in for a meeting now! Thank you again, Lauren. You’re a true shining star in your field 🌟

Ah such a fabulous review, thanks so much too kind!! Can we return to renew your vows in a few years? Ha ha!! Take care lovely people ! X We have used Lauren Duncan on two occasions so far, both were funeral services of close relatives. We found Lauren to be very kind carrying and professional, she speaks very well and takes great care in getting to know members of the deceased’s family on her pre funeral visit. We highly recommend Lauren.

Thanks so much Lisa, such an honour to conduct these services for you. We met Lauren at a wedding fair held at our venue of choice and were instantly impressed by her warm approach and exceptional rapport skill.
Speaking to Lauren it rapidly became clear that we wanted the format of our day to involve her skills and also give our ceremony a more 'personal feel'.
Lauren really took time to understand our dynamic, learn about us as individuals and how we operate as a couple. Several face to face meetings were held and Lauren was always happy to fit in with our diaries and accommodate us in anyway possible. Communication was fantastic and Lauren offered guidance and support throughout the process of writing our own vows to having readings during our service. When the day arrived Lauren did a phenomenal job proving she was the right choice for us. The ceremony she delivered was heartfelt and heart warming and we will forever be grateful of the part she played in our day.
Lauren, thank you. You were an absolute pleasure to work with and we cannot recommend you highly enough. We will always cherish your efforts and the moments you helped create on our special day.

I am member of The Fellowship of Professional Celebrants (UK) which includes Professional Indemnity and Public Liability Insurance, our motto is “Your Voice, Your Choice, Your Ceremony”.
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.
