No, celebrants don’t have the legal right to marry people in the UK. You’ll just need give your notice and book in at your local registry office to do the paperwork but you can save the important stuff like the vows and exchange of rings for the big day.

You can do this before or after the actual wedding (and you don't ever have to do it if it's not important to you!)

Not necessarily. Wedding venues are often so expensive because their license costs them a lot of money so if you choose to get married at an unlicensed venue, the overall cost can often be cheaper.

​

As a direct comparison, a celebrant is more expensive than a registrar but that's because of the time that goes into the personalisation of the ceremony. You won't usually meet your registrar until the day and you will have to follow a template script whereas a celebrant will spend months getting to know you and creating a bespoke ceremony.

Absolutely, any element that you'd like to have included can be done. Religious passages, cultural traditions, rituals, songs and dances. This is your ceremony and we'll do it your way!

​

Symbolic ceremonies such as Ring Warming, Hand Fasting, Unity Candles, Sand Ceremonies and Tree Planting etc. can all be done too. I'm happy to walk you through what these involve too so you can decide if one of them is right for you.

The only people I'd say no to are homophobes, racists and misogynists.

Absolutely anywhere - on a beach, on top of a mountain, in your back garden, at the zoo,  in your living room (or someone else's as long as they've said yes!).

Just bear in mind that having a back-up is a good idea in case of bad weather.

​

I can travel around the UK and internationally to perform your ceremony although this may come at an extra cost.

Any time of the year, any time of the day. I can be there at midnight, midday and all the hours in between.
