Hi, I’m Jess Masterton-Smith - a Humanist Wedding Celebrant with a passion for storytelling and unforgettable ceremonies.
I create and conduct personal, meaningful, and joy-filled wedding ceremonies that are truly unique to each couple. I work closely with you to craft a celebration that reflects your story, your humour, and your values, and I’ll go above and beyond to make sure it feels authentically you.
I’m based on the Hampshire / Sussex border, but I happily cover the whole of the UK — and I absolutely love a destination wedding!
❤️ What I Offer:
My priority is for you to feel relaxed, confident, and genuinely excited, not just on the day, but throughout the whole process. Your ceremony is not the warm-up act… it’s the headline event, and I’ll make sure your guests are laughing, crying, and talking about it for years to come.
I design ceremonies of all styles:
-
Intimate and heartfelt
-
Classic with a modern twist
-
Quirky, character-filled and full of personality
From readings and music to symbolic gestures, pets, and surprise moments - we can include anything that feels meaningful to you. I’ll guide you through every step, learning your story and shaping it into a ceremony that feels effortless, magical, and completely original.

Reviews for Celebrate Ceremonies
Personal ceremony conducted perfectly
The whole process with Jess goes far beyond the usual, she really takes the time to get to know you both (+ our son in this case) so when it comes to the day everything is so relaxed and easy. It really feels like a friend marrying you and our guests felt this warmth too. If we're blessed with another child there's no one else we'd go to.
Wedding of our Dreams, Thank you Jess
Jess is special
We sourced a lot of our suppliers on the same rule - do we like them and do we want to share the biggest day of our lives with them? Well, Jess was one of the easiest decisions we made.
From chatting on Zoom and then meeting up for a drink and a good natter about us as a couple, Jess was lovely, friendly and welcoming in the extreme.
She heard what we were like, gauged our sense of humour and our dynamic and echoed, mirrored and amplified the right parts at the right time on the day.
Jess brings an energy money can’t buy and is a presence you’ll be grateful for. We certainly are!
She was an integral part of our day and the vibe we wanted to build. Thank you Jess! Lots of love, the Poveys x
Jess makes your special day the most memorable ever!
The level of detail which Jess wove into our Wedding ceremony showed an extraordinary level of intuition and empathy which had Jade and I shedding years of joy at the first reading.
We cannot stress highly enough how relaxed, professional and humorous (in all the right measures), Jess conducted our big day.
Thank you for understanding, creating and adapting our wishes so very perfectly.
Heartfelt best wishes for your future bringing happiness to so many.
Geoff and Jade xx
