Ceremonies by Ruth

Ruth was absolutely wonderful and we couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant. She made our ceremony feel so personal, warm and relaxed, and really took the time to get to know us beforehand.

She also handled a slightly chaotic moment brilliantly when, mid-ceremony, we realised our wedding rings had gone missing from our dog Moo’s collar (our ring bearer!). Ruth stayed completely calm, kept everything flowing and somehow managed to keep us all relaxed while we worked out what to do.

We’re so happy Ruth was part of our day and would recommend her in a heartbeat. Thank you, Ruth!

From the moment we met Ruth at a wedding fayre in Long Melford, we saw something very special in her warmth and smile; it made such a lasting impression that we knew we wanted to secure her as our wedding celebrant (and there ended our search).

Ruth is a truly a remarkable and gifted lady and we feel blessed and honoured to have had her deliver our wedding ceremony.

The compliments just flowed and flowed and are a praise and commendation to all the time and effort Ruth took in getting to know us, for making it fun and enjoyable, for supporting us through this journey and to deliver our story so beautifully. Our family and friends made so many wonderful comments about the ceremony, the uniqueness and meaning of the hand tying and the love and laughs along the way.

From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful for all the warmth, heartfelt words and your ever so calming presence that made our ceremony so beautiful, so personal and so unique to us.

We feel so very blessed to have met you Ruth and it goes without saying that anyone that is fortunate enough to engage you as their celebrate, is in the ‘very best and warmest of hands’

When I first saw Ruth at the Alpheton barns open day I was drawn to speak to her, I didn't know much about celebrants but I knew after our conversation that she would be perfect!
The pacing of the process of getting to know each other was great, Ruth sends out some questionnaires which were hilarious to fill in, and she has a knack of picking up what's special and unique about your relationship, and the story starts to write itself. As we started to put together what would be the parts of the day it really felt special, Ruth was always warm, always creative and was able to put into words exactly want we wanted to say to each other and all our loved ones.

Our wedding day was fabulous, Ruth was there to meet and greet and really puts everyone at ease. The ceremony itself was all we hoped for and more, Ruth's delivery was excellent, we even managed to sail through a blunder while tying the knot.

Ruth brings to a wedding a perfect way to tell your love story, your way. If you are looking for a celebrant who will go the extra mile to create the most wonderful experience, look no further.
Thank you so much Ruth, you made our day!

Ruth really helped us pull together all of our ideas into a cohesive plan, she took the stress out of the actual day and her personable nature was just infectious. She got to know all of our key guests, she coached people throughout the day and yet somehow was always in the background not in the foreground.
She was the icing on the cake.

Ruth was an amazing celebrant, and we couldn't have asked for anyone better for our wedding. She made the ceremony so personal, relaxed, and meaningful, and helped us feel completely at ease throughout. Ruth took the time to get to know us as a couple and created a beautiful ceremony that reflected our story perfectly. She made us both feel completely at ease, and her calm, friendly presence helped make the whole day even more special.

Our guests loved the ceremony, and we're so grateful for everything she did. We highly recommend Ruth to anyone looking for a wonderful celebrant. Thank you from Ben and Ellise!

Ruth was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She worked so closely with us throughout the whole process, making sure every detail was included and that our ceremony felt completely personal to us.
She was endlessly patient, supportive and went above and beyond to give us the best service possible. We made a few last minute changes and she handled everything so calmly, even helping us fit in a surprise I had planned for my husband. Our ceremony was truly beautiful and more special than we could have imagined. We are so grateful we met Ruth at a wedding fair because she played such a huge part in making our day magical.
Ruth is an incredible person, professional, passionate and so clearly dedicated to what she does.
Thank you, Ruth for giving us the most magical day ❤️

We would totally recommend Ruth for your big day .We had interviewed a few Celebrant for our wedding but nobody compared to Ruth. Right from the beginning Ruth made us both feel so comfortable as this was completely out of our comfort zone. From start to finish she guided us and on the day she came to the venue early making sure every little detail was correct as she knew how i wanted everything perfect. I had the most relaxed, easy ceremony/wedding. My feed back since the wedding has been what a lovely ceremony we had.
Ruth made our wedding so special for us in everyway and we can not thank her enough.

Ruth was the celebrant for our wedding in July. From our first conversation with Ruth, we instantly knew we liked her. She has such a lovely, warm and friendly manner that put us at ease straight away. Throughout the whole process she was great to work with and she took the time to really get to know us as a couple.

Ruth made our ceremony feel incredibly personal and meaningful. Every detail in the script reflected who we are, our story and what mattered most to us. She checked in regularly in the lead-up to the big day and made sure we were happy with every part of the script. There was never any pressure to include things we didn’t want. Ruth made sure the ceremony would be exactly what we wanted.

The pre-wedding meet-up at the venue with Ruth was so helpful. She walked us through everything, answered every question and made sure we both entirely happy with the arrangements for our day.

On our wedding day, Ruth arrived in plenty of time and immediately got everything organised. She made sure all the little details were in place, spoke with our suppliers, groomsmen and the bridal party to ensure everyone knew what to do. The ceremony she delivered was heartfelt, seamless and truly unforgettable. So many of our guests commented on how personal and special it felt. It was exactly what we wanted.

Ruth is a wonderful lady and we couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant. She made our vision of our wedding ceremony come true and we will always be grateful for the part she played in making our wedding day so perfect. Thank you Ruth!

Ruth did an amazing job officiating our ceremony. We were blown away by the level of care she took in making sure the entire ceremony was perfect. She got contact details from us and then reached out to all vendors on our behalf to let them know of important moments and queues for the day, ensuring not a special moment was missed by our videographer or photographer and having our dog be part of the ceremony was absolutely seamless as well. I told my now husband a week before the wedding "I already know we wont regret hiring Ruth because the one thing I'm not worried about at all is our ceremony being perfect". Ruth absolutely loves love and wants to celebrate your love with your partner. Book a consultation call with her and you wont regret booking her for your ceremony.

We chose Ruth to be our celebrant after seeing her Instagram page and as soon as we spoke on the phone we knew she was the perfect choice. She was incredibly professional, organised and personable and took all our stress about planning our wedding ceremony away from the very first meeting. On the day Ruth was an absolute joy, she led the ceremony perfectly with a mix of emotion and humour which all our guests loved. She mingled perfectly with our guests and we honestly feel like she made our wedding day even more special. Her touches like printing our vows and sending them to us afterwards, as well as making the ceremony incredible personal to us made us feel like she had known us for years. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

Ruth was our celebrant to our wedding in November 2025, she was nothing short of amazing. Her energy made myself, my wife and our daughter feel safe and confident leading up to the day. We knew we were in safe hands after our first zoom meeting. She took the time to know all 3 of us personally and let us trust the process.

On the day of the wedding herself and Ruth’s husband David (The unsung hero of the day) made us both feel at ease and we knew the day was going to be beautiful. David took the time to help all the grooms men get ready and offered last minute of advice to us all, was made us feel ready. He’s also just a great person to be around.

Once the ceremony was ready to start Ruth made sure, we both knew what we were doing, where to be and made sure we were ready before anything happened. Once she started the ceremony, she ensured the guest were engaged, laughing, confutable and that our script was personal to us. Which everyone loved and commented on how great she was!

We’re both pleased that Ruth done our ceremony and helped made our day perfect. We would recommend Ruth to anyone.

Ruth was excellent, made our day extremely special and thoughtful. Would highly highly recommend.

Ruth conducted our ceremony a few weeks ago now and we are so glad we chose to have her! We first met Ruth 2 years ago at a wedding fair and booked her straight away! From then onwards we always had lots of contact with her all the way up to minutes before the ceremony. The ceremony itself was even better than we imagined it would be, personal, emotional and funny. Our guest loved it as much as we did too and commented how good Ruth was, so if you’re undecided on a celebrant, I urge you to do it and pick Ruth!! Thank you Ruth! Love S & C ❤️

From the second I spotted Ruth to talking to her at Downhall wedding fair last year i was saying to Ian she looks like Jane Fonda! 🥰 and that was it for me I was totally hooked on Ruth being our Celebrant,
but so much more than that Ruth kept in contact with us all the way through the planning with video chats and then the run through at Downhall just before our day.
On the Day of our Wedding Ruth looked stunning as she always does, her smile and friendliness has a way of resonating calm in people and her professionalism was key to a very smooth running Ceremony. Helen our lovely Photographer captured some of my favourite photos of Ruth which I will always treasure,

We had so many Guests Commenting on how they absolutely loved the fun and yet very touching words that Ruth spoke using the information she gathered from us about missing loved ones and our story bringing tears of remembrance and laughter throughout the ceremony.
Ruth conducted her part so passionately and captivated everyone in the room, some said it was the best wedding they've ever attended.

We still get people talking about the day and Ruth is in my Phone as Ruth ( Jane Fonda) but more than that a friend who made our day something we will never forget.
We love you Ruth and Thank you so much for being there for us...Tarsha & Ian Johnson 💜

Ruth was amazing, from the moment we met her at Martells Wedding village we knew she was the person to conduct our ceremony. Such a great character, sense of humour and really took time to learn our story and interpreted it beautifully. Ruth checked every detail with us, met us at our venue to run through things and on the day of our wedding ensured that everyone knew their role in the day and made everyone feel at ease. Ruth really made our day and all of our guests have commented on how Ruth really engaged everyone and reflected our sense of fun into everything. I would certainly recommend Ruth to anyone getting married - or any other event that requires a celebrant - she really is the best.
