Excellent Wedding Celebrant

We were absolutely thrilled to have Deborah East as our wedding celebrant. She was an absolute delight to work with—warm, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making our day special. Deborah helped us craft a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony, weaving together a touching personal story about how my wife and I met, what we love about one another, and how happy our children are that we found each other. Her professionalism and attention to detail ensured everything ran smoothly on the day, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the moment. We couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant.

A Beautifully Personal Ceremony – Truly Unforgettable!

We couldn’t be more grateful to have had Deborah as our wedding celebrant! From the moment we met her, she was so warm, easy to talk to, and genuinely excited to be part of our day. She took the time to really get to know us and created a beautiful, personal ceremony that truly reflected who we are as a couple.

Every detail felt thoughtful and tailored to us, and so many of our guests commented on how special and meaningful the ceremony was. She brought such a lovely, calming presence on the day and helped make everything run so smoothly.

We had the most amazing wedding, and a huge part of that was thanks to her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly – thank you for everything!

Our special day.....




I can’t thank Deborah enough for the fantastic job she did at our wedding! From the very first meeting she was friendly and approachable, instantly making both Sophie and me feel at ease. The ceremony was beautifully detailed, capturing our love story perfectly and her fun and light-hearted approach had our friends and family smiling throughout. It truly made our special day unforgettable, and I could see how happy everyone was to be there with us. If you are looking for a celebrant who is joyful then I would highly recommend Deborah.

I’ve always been interested in people, their stories, what interests them, how they live their lives and what makes them happy. I think that’s what life is all about, making new connections, sharing experiences and making special memories.

I feel very lucky to live in the pretty town of Marlow in Buckinghamshire and have been here over ten years having lived in both London and Manchester.

I live with my husband who I’ve been with for over 25 years and my twin daughters who are just about to start college (which is making me feel very old!).
