About My Role

  • What exactly does a Wedding Celebrant do?

    I’m there to officiate your wedding in a way that feels personal, fun, and completely different to the norm.

    My job is to make sure your ceremony is centred around you, your story, your relationship, and the people you love most. I bring everyone together to celebrate your big moment, not just witness it.

  • How is a Celebrant different from a registrar or a vicar?

    Here’s how I see it:
    A registrar marries you in the eyes of the law.
    A vicar marries you in the eyes of their god.
    I marry you in the eyes of your friends and family - the people who matter most.

    There are no rules, no scripts, and no boxes to tick. You get total freedom to create a ceremony that fits you.

  • Are your ceremonies legal?

    Not at the moment. Celebrant-led ceremonies aren’t yet legally binding in England, Wales, or Northern Ireland (Scotland’s got it sorted).

    And honestly? I don’t mind it that way. The beauty of a celebrant-led ceremony is the freedom — no restrictions, no awkward paperwork, just a real, heartfelt celebration of your love. The legal bit can be done separately; it’s just the admin part anyway!

  • Can we still do the legal bit separately and have you for the main ceremony?

    Absolutely. Most couples pop into the registry office to do the legal bit before or after the big day. Some even have a registrar come along to handle that part during the celebration. However you want to do it — I’ll fit around you.

  • Do you do other types of ceremonies too (like vow renewals or naming ceremonies)?

    I do! If you’re marking a special milestone, get in touch and we’ll chat about how to make it meaningful

  • Do you travel for weddings?

    I do! I’m based in Sheffield but happy to hit the road.

The Process

  • How do we book you?

    Just get in touch! We’ll start with a free consultation call to see if we vibe — no pressure, just a chat about you, your plans, and how I can help.

  • What happens after we book?

    The real planning usually kicks off around six to nine months before your wedding. We’ll catch up — often at your favourite pub — and that’s when the fun begins. From there, I start shaping your ceremony with your story at the heart of it.

  • Do you offer a free consultation?

    Always. It’s the best way for us to get to know each other and make sure we’re the right fit.

  • How do you get to know us and our story?

    Through a mixture of relaxed hangouts and a few questionnaires.
    The questionnaires give me the facts — the hangouts (maybe a walk in the Peaks or a games night) let me peek behind the scenes and see those intangibles between you.

    Put those together, and I get everything I need to tell your story properly.

  • Can we include personal vows, readings or rituals?

    Absolutely, and please do! Personal vows always hit differently. Readings bring loved ones into the moment, and rituals can be a beautiful or fun expression of unity. I’ll help you weave them in naturally.

  • Do we get to approve the ceremony script before the day?

    Of course. You’ll get your first draft about a month before the wedding. From there, it’s a team effort. I’ll tweak and polish until you’re 100% happy with every word.

The Ceremony

  • Can you include religious or cultural elements?

    I don’t include religious elements myself, as it wouldn’t feel authentic for me to deliver them.

    But cultural traditions? I’m totally open to that — as long as they’re meaningful and genuine to you, I’ll help make sure they fit beautifully into your ceremony.

  • Can we have family or friends involved in the ceremony?

    Yes, please! Your guests are part of the celebration, not just the audience. Whether it’s readings, music, or a shared moment, the more involvement, the better.

  • What if we want something completely non-traditional?

    Then you’ve come to the right place. I love creating ceremonies that rip up the rulebook — while still keeping enough structure that it feels like a wedding, not a variety show!

  • Can you help us write our vows?

    Definitely. They’ve got to come from you, but I’m always happy to offer gentle guidance, feedback, or a few writing prompts if you’re feeling stuck.

  • What do you wear on the day?

    I like to look sharp but not stiff — usually a stylish, slightly alternative suit.

    That said, I’m happy to tailor my look to your vibe. I once rocked a bolo tie at a disco-cowboy wedding, and I regret nothing.

  • How long does the ceremony usually last?

    My golden rule: never more than 25 minutes. People’s attention spans drop after that!

    That said, with the natural flow of things on the day, it can go a few minutes either way.

My Style

  • What makes your Ceremonies different?

    Because they’re mine — and no one else does it quite like me.
    I create ceremonies that are relaxed, genuine and full of heart. I ditch the stiff, formal stuff and focus on making everyone feel comfortable enough to laugh, cry, and truly enjoy the moment.

    For me, the perfect ceremony rides a rollercoaster of emotions — heartfelt one minute, taking the piss the next. That balance of humour and heart is what makes it unforgettable.

  • We’re not very traditional — is that ok?

    That’s fantastic news.

    Book me immediately.

  • Can we still include some classic or formal parts if we want to?

    Of course! We still want your Nan to recognise it as an actual wedding ceremony.

  • What’s your vibe like on the day?

    I’m calm, early, and unflappable. No matter what happens, I’ll be the voice of “It’s all gonna be fine.”

    Your job is to enjoy the day - I’ll handle the rest.

  • What’s the best part of your job?

    That moment right before I pronounce you married. There’s a buzz in the air, everyone’s smiling, and I get the honour of wrapping it all up with a bow before handing the celebration over to you. It’s pure joy every single time.

  • Will you cry at our ceremony?

    It depends on how good your vows are… it has happened, occasionally.
