Last update: April 2024

If you’re currently planning a wedding, then congratulations from the three of us at Celebrant in Cornwall! We're so happy you are here!

Lisa, Sam and Caroline are highly experienced, professional and FUN celebrants who know that not everyone wants a boring standard script for their most important day. We tailor the ceremony to your exact requirements, resulting in a stunning, unique experience, which can be held in any location of your choosing, any time of day, no license required. It’s all about personalising your day, telling your unique story and crafting the ceremony around everything you want to include.

Our reviews have been so great, we won The Hitched Wedding Awards in 2022, 2023 AND in 2024 for one of the most recommended professionals by married couples.

We were also the only SW finalist in the Guides for Brides National Awards 2023 and we've been shortlisted as finalist for 2024 as well!!

And we also were awarded South West England Wedding Celebrants of the Year 2024 in the LuxLife Global Wedding Awards, Most Caring Wedding Celebrants 2023 in the Southern Enterprise Awards, the South West England Celebrants of the Year 2022 by LuxLife Hospitality Awards, and Wedding Celebrants of the Year 2022 in the Corporate LiveWire Global Awards.

Do get in touch with us through the contact form or by calling Lisa on the number provided; we'd really would love to chat about being part of your special day.

Frequently Asked Questions:

We want a cheap celebrant. Is that you?

Afraid not! We believe the ceremony is the heart of your day, the part that starts the party, which will have all your guests raving about. We are professionally trained, with many years of experience, and we put our heart and soul i(and many hours of work) into your wedding ceremony. Like with all things - you definitely get what you pay for!

Is a celebrant-led wedding legally binding?

No, not yet. The legal paperwork can be completed at the Register Office in as little as ten minutes for around £50 (plus notice fees). Couples generally choose to have their legal ceremony before their celebrant-led ceremony – enabling them to plan their celebratory ceremony exactly as they choose, without any restrictions from the local authority.

Do you travel outside Cornwall?

Of course! Distance is no object, just bear in mind our prices are slightly higher for places outside our home county and that there may be charge for travel and accommodation if required.

What is the process of booking you?

Drop us a line, give Lisa a call or we can set up a video conversation. If you would like to proceed, a 50% deposit secures your date.

Everything we dreamed of!

You do not need to look any further…Lisa is everything you’ve been looking for in a Celebrant and more.

She’ll give you the ‘warm fuzzies’ from the first moment you meet and she gives you the biggest smile!

Lisa captured our story so beautifully and delivered it with such passion. The ceremony was our favourite part of the whole day!

Lisa oozes friendliness, warmth and kindness in every interaction. It honestly felt like we had an old family friend standing with us on the biggest day of our lives, which is truly the most magical thing!

We were so incredibly lucky to have found Lisa and are so glad she was part of our special day. We’ll always look back fondly on our wedding day, and think of Lisa who made it everything it was.

You’ll have her commitment to make your day everything you’ve dreamed of and she’ll do it so effortlessly. I can guarantee there won’t be a dry eye in the place!

My goodness even writing this makes me emotional. Lisa, we cannot thank you enough! You’re an absolute gem!

Please stay in touch.

All our love,
Mr and Mrs O’Reilly, your Newly Weds xx

Celebrant in Cornwall gave us the ceremony we'd dreamed of

Lisa was incredible from the moment we started working with her right up until our wedding day!
When planning a wedding, you realise you've never before thought about the intricacies of a ceremony, the order in which things should happen, or the crucial timings.
Lisa provided us with ideas and guidance for all of this and more, as well as always answering all questions we had, and provided a clear step by step process for putting our ceremony and story together. Without Lisa we wouldn't have had been able to put together the ceremony we now look back on with such incredible fondness.
Throughout our wedding day, a number of our guests came and asked us whether Lisa was a family friend, and were surprised when we explained that she wasn't! Our guests enjoyed our ceremony just as much as we did, and that is very much down to Lisa's wonderful guidance, planning, writing, and expert delivery on the day!
Thank you so much, Lisa!

The BEST celebrant!

Wow - where do I begin! From the get go, Lisa was warm, friendly, funny, welcoming, and seemed genuinely interested in the two of us as a couple. She spent so much time before the big day making sure that the ceremony was suited to us, and making it perfect - which it absolutely was! Me and my partner were really keen on a laid back ceremony which focused on the two of us and our story, rather than your traditional ceremonies - Lisa completely ran with this and we were blown away by how well she captured "us"! She also took responsibility for aspects that we didn't expect her to (like liaising with our sisters for a surprise reading as we couldn't decide on a reading ourselves).

On the day itself, Lisa was super chilled (trust me, you need this on the morning of!), and delivered the most amazing ceremony! We had guests approach us throughout the day commenting on how amazing she had been. Honestly, by the wedding, I felt that we were having the ceremony with someone we had known for a while rather than a stranger we had only met over video call.

We cannot recommend Lisa enough - and if you are undecided on who to book, let this be your sign that the search is over! :)

The perfect re-telling of our story.

Our ceremony was filled with so much love, happiness and laughter and this can be credited to Lisa. Lisa took the time to get to know us as a couple and used the authentic moments to re-tell our story to our closest family and friends. I would highly recommend Lisa, and her team, to anyone getting married.

The perfect Cornish coastal ceremony

We really wanted our ceremony to be fun, informal, relaxed and personal and Lisa definitely delivered all those things and more! We have had so many compliments from our guests on our ceremony, how it reflected us as a couple and how fun, interactive and emotional it was. We had no clue where to even start planning a ceremony, but Lisa made the whole process really clear from the first meeting with her, answering all our questions and giving us clear and helpful advice. Getting married in the middle of a farmers field on what turned out to be the hottest day of the year was a challenge and stressful at times, but Lisa supported us and our vision for the day, and it was definitely all worth it in the end. There were tears, laughter and some audience participation, our ceremony was just perfect and I couldn’t recommend Lisa more highly!

Everything we could have asked for and more!

From our very first conversation with Lisa, we felt so confident that she was the perfect person to help us create the perfect ceremony for us - she straight away picked up on our values and understood the atmosphere we wanted to create across our whole wedding day. Lisa is a ray of sunshine, she made us feel so confident, relaxed and excited about our ceremony throughout the planning process and even more so on the day.
So many of our guests said that the absolute highlight of the day was the ceremony - they said it was amazing to hear our story told by someone who clearly understood us so well, and that it was a really special moment in the day. We were both blown away by the detail and care that Lisa put into our ceremony and nearly 4 months after our wedding we are still so grateful to have had Lisa there with us!
Booking Lisa to take care of you and your ceremony will be the best decision you make for your wedding - we cannot thank her enough!

Magical Day

We celebrated our wedding with Lisa in June 2023. It was a magical day and especially because of the thought and care given to the ceremony. Lisa helped make it so authentic, personal and meaningful. So much more than you could ever achieve in a church. It was just the loveliest way to say the most important things to the most important person in your life with all your friends and family there to be part of it.

Vow Renewal

From the moment we contacted Lisa we knew she was going to be the perfect celebrant for our vow renewal, after 40 years of marriage there was quite a story to tell and Lisa captured this beautifully, with a subtle combination of humour and sentimentality, including funny stories & happy memories of our life as a family that Lisa gathered from speaking to our Daughters 😊
We wanted our ceremony to be a celebration of our life together, relaxed & light hearted and fully inclusive of family & friends and this is exactly what Lisa provided, it was absolutely perfect!!! We would not hesitate to recommend Lisa to anyone hoping for the most exquisite ceremony xx

Perfection!

Wow...we just can not thank Lisa enough!! We are so so thankful that we found Lisa to lead our amazing wedding. From the moment we first spoke on zoom we knew she would be perfect. We didn't want a stale wedding like everyone else and felt her pure love for her job shone through. From the beautiful way she wrote through to the delivery of our ceremony . If only we could relive what was a perfect day full or joy and emotion. Thank you, thank you, thank you from all the Fords xxxx

Incredibly Personal

Amazing communication from the very start. Lisa is so thoughtful and personal, we loved every word she’d written and professionally spoke during our ceremony. One of the most supportive persons we’ve ever met, we highly recommend her services. Everyone of our guests commented on how incredible the words and details were throughout and they all felt very engaged from the beginning to the end.

Faultlessly amazing

What can I say, Lisa was amazing from our very first meeting. Nothing was too much trouble. She understood our need for a family originated service. It was personal, funny and every bit perfectly romantic. On the big day she made sure everyone was put at easy and taking in the memories we made.
Thank you so much for everything, don’t hesitate to allow the team to be part of your magical day.

The best in the business!

Wow, where to start... Lisa did an absolutely incredible job at officiating our wedding. She interviewed us a few months before the ceremony and really took her time in getting to know us as a couple, the story of how we met, and our own individual personalities too. She sent us a ceremony draft which reflected our initial conversation extremely well, and asked us for our input where needed. The script was amazing - engaging for the audience, captured our story perfectly, and had a real balance between romance and humour - perfect for us!

Lisa had the patience of a saint as it took us a while to get back to her emails while trying to balance work & wedding planning. She sent us gentle nudges when needed and we really appreciated this. On the day itself, Lisa was so helpful and welcoming towards every single guest that approached her. Our ceremony left almost every single person in (happy) tears and we really feel that it was the highlight of our day.

Thank you again Lisa, we wish we could do it all over again!

Perfect ceremony

We just wanted to say a massive thank you for creating us the most perfect ceremony and exceeding all our expectations. The ceremony was relaxed, romantic and light hearted which is exactly what we wanted. Thank you for helping us create our heart felt vows and for helping Tamara and Amy with their readings. You helped make our day truly unforgettable.

We can't thank you enough and wish you all the best in creating many more perfect ceremonies.

The perfect day

Our wedding was postponed 3 times due to Covid and we reached out to Lisa in October of 2021 when our plans changed slightly. From the initial conversations on email, it was clear we were on to a winner and felt like we had made the right decision.

We had an initial online meeting where Lisa got to know us and in February she sent us an information gathering form which gave us giggles while completing it.
From just this short meeting and the document being completed, Lisa compiled the first draft.
Wow, she got us! There was nothing I wanted to change! She has such an amazing ability to understand who we are as individuals and as a couple. We were floored at how right she got it!
On the day, Lisa was just incredible where she took this document and created the base of our perfect wedding. The platform was set and the rest of the day just flowed.
Thank you again ever so much for being such a key part of our very special day - we cannot thank you enough for taking our vision and making it a reality.
Sam & Paul
