For instance, AND, even went to a Viking event to conduct research! ) and guided is through the appropriate cerominy , giving us various choices , It all made for a very easy and stress free rxperience. Debs in particular couldnt have been happier with the process .

We came across Carolyn via a google search whilst looking for a celebrant for our vow renewal. We spoke on the phone and instantly clicked, We had two further online meetings where we felt completely at ease with Carolyn and we discussed our vision for our day and what we wanted to include in our ceremony. We gave Carolyn information about our relationship and she turned it into a beautiful personalised story of us!
Communication was great and Carolyn has been completely supportive throughout. Carolyn is so passionate about the work she does and was dedicated to making our day special. Our ceremony was everything we asked for and more and we couldn’t thank Carolyn enough! We would highly encourage Carolyn to anyone looking for their celebrant.

Cas was amazing, well prepared, always there for us and is just a lovely person to be around! She helped us a lot with preparing our vows, thinking about everything that's needed for the big day and making our dream wedding come to life. She even practiced to speak some german during the ceremony so my family can understand her and she did a fantastic job. We are very lucky to have had Cas for our wedding and would recommend her anytime xx Thank you Cas for being brilliant and the perfect celebrant for our wedding!

We feel so lucky to have had Carolyn as our celebrant — she was truly a gift to our wedding day.

From the very beginning, Carolyn took the time to understand our story, our values, and the unique blend of our two cultures and religions. What she created was far more than just a ceremony — it was a deeply meaningful and emotional experience that touched us and every one of our guests.

Her script was beautifully written, heartfelt, and personal — full of love, warmth, and authenticity. She even went the extra mile to write it in both English and Portuguese, which meant the world to us and made my mother feel included and respected. That thoughtfulness is something we will always remember with gratitude.

Carolyn also managed to bring together our different beliefs and traditions with so much grace and sensitivity. She created a space of unity, joy, and respect — something truly special that reflected exactly who we are as a couple.

Thank you, Carolyn, for your kindness, your beautiful energy, and for helping us create a ceremony we will cherish forever. You exceeded all expectations, and we couldn’t have dreamed of anyone better to guide us through this moment.

If you're considering having a celebrant for your wedding, I cannot recommend Rites Of Way enough! All of the work and care that Carolyn put into getting to know us and our story as a couple was so evident in the wedding script, which was so heartfelt and personal to ourselves. Many of our guests said it was the best wedding ceremony they'd ever been a part of, and they loved getting to know more about our story as a couple. Carolyn was there throughout our wedding planning to support us and was extremely accommodating. She was such a calming figure for us on the day and helped put everyone at ease. Thank you for helping to make our day so memorable!

Cas was our dream celebrant and I can't recommend her highly enough. She stepped in at the last minute and put together a beautiful, personal and touching ceremony that made us feel so special. Thanks for everything you've done.

Carolyn offered just the right level of support before the event and did such a lovely job on the day. She's really approachable and put us all at ease. We had a handfasting and she helped us to choose all the right elements to make it really personal. She was also very understanding and sensitive to how to incorporate our daughter who has SEN needs. Thank you Carolyn!
