Perfect tailored ceremony

Fantastic experience with Kay Hamilton as our celebrant. Very professional, but also really pays attention to give you the heartfelt ceremony you really want! Kay really got to know us and crafted our story really well. On the day she delivered so well, so much that the guests remarked she was wonderful.

Would highly recommend for her for a very well tailored ceremony, just the way you want it.

Kay was fantastic and warm-hearted :)

Kay took the time to get to know us as a couple, and delivered such a lovely ceremony. We received a first draft to review and barely made any changes! It was lovely to read through and even though we knew the ceremony on the day, the delivery made it so much more special.
She managed to grasp our sense of humour but also kept it sweet in moments that mattered.
So many of our guests complimented the ceremony and said the words described our journey and future really well :)
Thank you for the lovely words at our wedding! :))

Kay Hamilton was nothing short of INCREDIBLE!!!!

We were originally meant to be getting married in June 2026, but due to family circumstances Kay quite literally moved mountains to ensure my mum could see us get married in December. Her compassion, flexibility, and genuine care during what was an emotional time for us will never be forgotten.

Kay spent real time getting to know me and my partner. She truly wanted to understand who we are as individuals and as a couple, and it showed so clearly in the ceremony. She captured us perfectly. She was hilarious, warm, and engaging, had everyone involved, and created an atmosphere that was relaxed, joyful, and full of love. Her words and recommendations were just beautiful.

Kay was an absolute asset to our day, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant. We feel so lucky to have had her be such a meaningful part of our journey and cannot recommend her highly enough.

Thank you for everything Kay - you truly are one in a million. x

Kay helped to create our perfect day

We couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant for our wedding. From the very beginning, Kay was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony personal and meaningful. She guided us through every step, sending us drafts to review and edit so the ceremony was exactly what we wanted. Kay was always available by email or phone to answer any questions, which made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. The ceremony she delivered perfectly reflected who we are as a couple, and so many of our guests commented on how beautiful and heartfelt it was. We’re incredibly grateful and would recommend Kay to any couple without hesitation.

Best celebrant ever!

Kay was our celebrant for our special day and she was absolutely incredible. We were first drawn to Kay because of her background in nursing, and from the moment we met her, we instantly clicked and knew we wanted her to deliver our day. She spent so much time getting to know us, making the whole process feel so personalised and each time we caught up, we felt like we got to know her and it felt as though she’d become part of our family. Kay guided us through the process with such ease and reassurance as we were very clueless, but she kept us organised and calm. She was an absolute joy to work with and we’re so grateful for all the care, attention and humour she put into making our ceremony so perfect. Kay told our story so beautifully with just the right amount of humour, setting the tone for the day perfectly. We had so many guests comment that it was the best ceremony they’ve been to. Five stars simply doesn’t feel like enough - we really can’t thank Kay enough for making our day so special and would HIGHLY recommend!

One of the best parts of our day!

Our experience with Kay was exceptional from start to finish. She was personable, funny, and incredibly well-spoken. She guided us through the entire process with ease and delivered a ceremony that was tailored to us specifically; written and delivered beautifully. Many of our friends and family noted it was one of the best parts of the day. Would deeply recommend.

Our Perfect Ceremony

The ceremony was a little different from what we’d anticipated (with our children taking such a central role!) but it turned out absolutely perfect for us and our family. This was because Kay was able to react to the unexpected and adapt to make everything work.

It wouldn’t have been so special without Kay! Her warmth, adaptability, and the way she made everyone feel so comfortable truly made the day unforgettable. Kay is amazing!

Excellent ceremony

Kay was the wonderful celebrant of our wuedding. She was very friendly and professional. She suited our laid-back vibes and put a lot of work into personalizing our ceremony. She put a lot of time and effort meeting us to work together creating a perfect celebration of our journey together so far. She was very communicative and it was obvious that she enjoys what she does and genuinely cares to make couples have the most magical day. Can't recommend her highly enough!

Fantastic Celebrant

We used Kay for our wedding this year and she was brilliant. Got to know us both personally which allowed her to write a really personalised ceremony, full of smiles and laughs as well as helping us do everything we wanted during the ceremony. I'd highly recommend Kay for any events where youd like to use a celebrant.

The PERFECT celebrant

What can I say about Kay, other than she was our PERFECT wedding celebrant! My wife and I would not have been happy with anyone else!

We engaged Kay about a year before our wedding date, and she was extremely professional, friendly, and engaging from day dot! We had a couple of meet ups with her over the run up, where we had a lovely informal chat over a cup of tea. She was extremely informative, was able to lean on her previous experiences to be able to recommend and guide us on what we wanted. She knew all the right questions to ask to be able to form an accurate picture of my Wife and I's couple story. It also helped that we bonded with Kay over our love of festivals!

On the wedding day, Kay was absolutely brilliant. She made everything appear so easy, and she had the perfect energy to alleviate our nervousness of being in front of all those people! The ceremony she delivered was spot on, from our couple story, through to including some more traditional bits to honor our heritage, everything went off without a hitch.

All I can say is if you are looking for a laid back, super friendly celebrant, who is genuinely interested in learning about your story, then you cannot go wrong with Kay! 5* is not enough in my opinion!

Thank you Kay!

Kay was able to jump in last minute as our wedding celebrant, due to unforeseen circumstances, and oh wow did she deliver! We really enjoyed getting to know Kay in the lead up to the wedding, and Kay was able to really understand us as a couple, ensuring the ceremony was completely reflective of us. We wanted something funny but heartfelt and this was exactly what was delivered! Any minor changes or edits towards the end were made really quickly. We really just enjoyed having Kay with us on the day and couldn’t recommend her enough.

Wonderful celebrant

Kay was brilliant from our first meeting we knew we wanted her straight away for our ceremony. We thoroughly enjoyed our next in depth meeting and all the follow ups planning and personalising our ceremony to make it special for us. She was great on the day rolled with our noisy kids being involved and all of our family and friends loved her.

Bristol wedding 17/04/25

It was pleasure working with Kay, a fellow NHS member. We bonded instantly over our chosen careers. From the very start, Kay brought a sense of calm, care, and genuine interest in our journey. She created a ceremony that felt deeply personal and unique — a true reflection of us without being too lovey dovey! Guests were moved by the emotion, the laughter, and the heartfelt moments. It was everything a wedding should be. We’re so grateful to Kay for making it unforgettable. Lots of love Ben, Em and Gigi.

Wonderful celebrant

Kay was the perfect celebrant. She had met the couple, listened to their story and what they wanted from the service which then truly reflected them and their relationship. Family and friends commented on how wonderful the celebration of marriage was- appropriately solemn yet warm and full of love and humour. Thank you Kay.
