FAQs

I am based in Hampshire but will happily travel across the country or abroad, so please feel free to contact me.

I am fully trained and qualified by the Academy of Modern Celebrancy.

Of course and I will work with you either together or separately. If you are really struggling, with a few pointers from you, I can even write them for you!

Most wedding ceremonies are about 30 minutes long but there are no set timings and will depend on what elements you choose to include. Renewal of vows and naming ceremonies may be a little shorter but again, it all depends on what you want to include.

In England, celebrants cannot legally marry couples but it is still possible to have the ceremony of your dreams, by simply making an appointment at a register office for a basic legal ceremony. You will say a few words and sign some paperwork which will cover the legal bits. You usually do this about a week before your celebrant-led ceremony or at your convenience. Exchanging rings and vows and all the other special parts can then be left to your wonderful, bespoke celebrant-led wedding.

You will also have to give notice which is just you saying that you intend to marry. The whole process, the basic ceremony and giving notice, costs around £120 (depending on where you live) and I will happily guide you through it.
