Is the ceremony legal?

A celebrant wedding is bespoke, beautiful, creative, meaningful – but not legal. You will need to do the legal bit in a registrar office. You might like to think of it as the wedding admin. You can do the legal bit before or after your celebrant wedding. That’s your call. If you want to be heart-married but not legally married, then you don’t need to do the registrar bit at all.

Where can I get married?

Absolutely anywhere! Unlike legal weddings that need to take place in a licensed venue, a celebrant wedding can take place wherever you like. In a big top, on a boat, at your favourite nightclub, at the beach, in a pub, in a field – the possibilities are endless.

Can you include children in the ceremony?

Absolutely. I’m delighted to include the small and not so small young people in your life in the ceremony and adapt on the day (or in the moment) if they go off-piste.

What do you like to drink during the ceremony?

How sweet of you to ask! Just still water actually. Nothing with bubbles until after the ceremony!

Can we include religious elements?

If you would like to absolutely yes. This is your ceremony your way. For authenticity I personally would not perform any religious aspects but you would be welcome to invite a friend or family member to do so and I would incorporate this into the ceremony.

What’s a unity ceremony?

It’s a symbolic often creative ritual to represent the union of two people. Examples include sand ceremonies, wine rituals, creating an anniversary capsule, tea ceremonies, tree planting and handfasting’s. 

What’s a handfasting?

A beautiful ancient Celtic tradition with pagan roots that see’s the celebrant bind the couple’s hands together with rope or ribbon to signify the union. It’s where the phrase tie the knot originates. You can use one chord or friends and family can add one’s to it. In some ceremonies couples are asked if they want to handfast for a year and a day, for while love lasts, or for eternity. Your choice! I personally LOVE handfasting’s.
