I love writing and love hearing people's stories. So being an Independent Celebrant is the perfect job for me. Together, we can create a Wedding or Vow Renewal Ceremony that is completely about you and tells your personal story—a story to be heard amongst your friends and family, in a setting of your choosing. A ceremony with personalised vows, music, symbolic gestures such as Handfasting, readings and poems, so the next chapter of your story can begin. We start with a blank page and see where that takes us.

My packages for Celebrancy services include:

• A complimentary first meeting to hear ideas and find out about each other.
• Time together to discuss your day and create an outline of your ceremony.
• Help in finding music, poems and readings.
• Creation of beautiful words for your ceremony, with your involvement from beginning to end.
• Open communication and unlimited contact from the planning stage to the ceremony itself, and beyond...
• On the day I will liase with any suppliers, welcome your guests, help you to feel at ease and - of course - conduct your ceremony.
• A commemorative keepsake copy of your ceremony.

Most of all I hope to make sure you both feel confident to thoroughly enjoy your day.

My core values are integrity, authenticity, kindness and loyalty. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) are important to me. I have a full DEI policy which can be viewed on my website. My credentials include:

• Trans & Gender Diversity Training for Employers & Service Providers
• Wedding & Vow Renewal Celebrant Training with The Celebrant Training & Coaching Academy
• Full Public Liability & Professional Indemity Insurance.
• A full member of Civil Celebrant Connection
• Registration with the Information Commision’s Office (ICO)
• GDPR and Privacy Policies are available on request.
• DBS Checked

I am based in Essex and am able to offer Celebrancy Services nationally.

Wedding Celebrations and Vow Renewals: Ceremonies Monday-Thursday from £525; for Ceremonies Friday-Sunday from £625. These are my base rates, any increase would depend on travel involved.

Please get in touch. I would love to hear your ideas.

(Please note: A wedding led by an Independent Celebrant is not legally binding. A couple would need to be already married or planning to get married by a Registrar before or on the date of our ceremony. Thank you, Louise)
