Want a non-traditional wedding ceremony? Look no further.

Kate really set the tone for our wedding. When she launched our ceremony, our guests knew they were in for something fun, different but extremely personal to us as a couple.

She hit the brief - right down to the outfit!

From our catch-up "get to know you" session in a coffee shop, to wrapping up on the big day,
we couldn't have asked for more. Her words were incredibly thoughtful, beautifully written and captured the attention of everyone present.

On top of that, so accomodating for all our requests!

We're incredibly thankful, awesome job Kate! xx

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Where do we even begin? Kate was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first conversation, she made us feel instantly at ease, like we were chatting with someone who had known us for years. She took the time to understand our personalities, our relationship, and the vibe we wanted, and then she brought it all together with absolute magic.

Our ceremony was everything: full of laughter, warmth, emotion, and those unforgettable moments that everyone keeps talking about. Kate has this rare gift of being both professional and effortlessly funny. She read the room perfectly, she had our guests laughing one minute and wiping away happy tears the next. It never felt scripted or forced; it felt real, personal, and perfectly “us.”

On the day, she brought a calming energy that we desperately needed. She guided us through each part of the ceremony with confidence and grace, all while keeping the atmosphere light and joyful. Watching her hold the space, connect with our guests, and tell our story was genuinely one of the highlights of the entire day.

So many people came up to us afterwards saying it was the best ceremony they’d ever been to and that is entirely down to Kate.

If you’re looking for a celebrant who will go above and beyond, who will pour heart and soul into your story, and who will deliver a ceremony bursting with love, humour, and authenticity, look no further. Kate is absolutely phenomenal.

Outstanding people, outstanding service

Words can't describe how happy we were with Kate and Kate's support and professionalism throughout. We worked with the wonderful Kate D (common Kate to her fans), and they made everything feel so easy and pleasant throughout. They really took the time to get to know us as a couple which resulted in an impeccable ceremony filled with laughs, tears (good ones ofc) and a whole host of jokes, as evident in the photos (also, fantastic suit Kate!). But their kindness and support didn't stop there, as she was more than happy to help with vows and speeches to ensure the tones matched and jokes landed. No adjustment was too much trouble and we never felt out of control with our service. We honestly couldn't have asked for a kinder and more genuine person to lead our ceremony and nearly every guest on the day has told us how much they enjoyed it. Thank you so so much Kate, you're welcome round for a cup of tea anytime!

Words cant describe!

I literally cant find the words to describe how incredible Kate was! We met her over a glass of wine and chatted for a couple of hours. She then sent us her write up for the service and I honestly dont know how she managed it but it was like she had known us for years! She completely 'got us' and the only way to describe it is PERFECT.
On the day it was raining and Kate was still up for going ahead with the wedding. in the garden - umbrella in hand! She was the perfect start to our wedding day. I cant thank you enough Kate. - you really were incredible and I want to do it all again! Charlie and Piers xx

One of a kind

Kate D is one of those people that feel like sunshine. Radiating warmth and love, as soon as we'd met her at the Bells wedding fair, we knew we wanted her to be a part of our wedding day. Our pre wedding meet up was amazing and it just felt like telling our story to a long time friend, rather than a stranger. We've felt so at ease and would have happily sat for even longer and chatted, because Kate is also a super interesting woman with many stories to tell. The first draft was already perfect and we couldn't wait for our big day. She has absolutely started our wedding day off with a bang! The ceremony was funny, emotional, sincere. So many laughs and happy tears. Everyone said how much they have enjoyed our ceremony and many even said it was the best one they've ever attended. We couldn't agree more, best decisions ever. Much love Nadine & Pat

Supportive , professional and worth every penny

We found the support, guidance and advice invaluable. Very professional and personalised service. We had a great day, much enjoyed by us and our guests. Worries we had evaporated and the whole event was a joy and celebration.
Can’t thank Kate enough and would highly recommend and say worth the money. So personalised and fun compared to plan and somber registry services.

Martin and Michelle’s Wedding!


Kate T was our celebrant for our wedding .
We first met Kate at our house, where we got to know her a little, but mainly she got to know us, very well indeed. On the day of the wedding, she went through everything with us, making sure there was no changes , and her service was wonderful!
Meaningful and funny. She had all our guests laughing.
They all said how good she was at the end!
We would 100% recommend Kate T ! She was fabulous!
Thank you for making our wedding day so memorable.

Winter wedding at the Bell in Ticehurst.

Kate and Kate were absolutely fantastic. We first met them at a wedding fair in our venue the Bell, Ticehurst. After a good chat we knew we had our ceremony sorted. We were able to edit the ceremony as much as we wanted, but it was almost perfect first time around. And when the day arrived, it was so much better than we expected. The whole room was involved, and all of our guests were talking about it for the rest of the day and beyond. Simply the best ceremony ever. If I could, I’d rewind and do it all again. Don’t hesitate, just book up Kate and Kate if you’re looking for the best wedding ever.

You couldn't ask for more!

What a relief when we found out Kate and Kate were available for our wedding at The Bell in Ticehurst! There aren't enough amazing things we could say about Kate! Our ceremony was hilarious, touching and memorable - we couldn't have asked for more! (We had guests that said they wished they could have done their own ceremonies all over again - can't give higher praise than that!)

Kate & Kate were the magic ingredient X in our perfect wedding

Kate was brilliant. Her/Their communication was not only top notch, with advice and guidance on what to do with respect to arranging our legal ceremony. Kate was responsive to questions, and at both our initial online meeting and our in-person meetings before the wedding she was nothing other than warm and charming - an absolute delight! Kate shared the script well in advance, and was very polite when she had to chase us up because we didn't get our suggested changes back very quickly. On the day, Kate arrived early at the venue, and was helpful in ensuring everything was ready for the ceremony. The ceremony itself was wonderful - irreverent, fun, and a total blast for everybody in attendance.

My wife & I both had such a good time, that even though it was only a week ago, we have already talked about having Kate and Kate celebrantise(?) future milestones in our lives - children, anniversaries and the like.

Kate & Kate - the best in the bizz!

Me and my wife decided to book Kate & Kate for our wedding and we are so happy we did!

After reading all the previous reviews, I didn't really understand why everyone mentioned how their guests kept on talking about the ceremonies run by Kate & Kate and just how brill they were.

But from (now) first hand experience I understand and can confirm it is true. We had more comments about our ceremony conducted by Kate than any other part of the day!

We wanted the ceremony to represent us, tell our story in a light hearted way and create a vibe of fun and laugher to set the tone for the day - we certainly achieved that.

All of our friends and family said it was so special, personalised and fun and they didn't want the ceremony to end (which if we're being honest most wedding guests do so they can crack on with the reception and have a drink and a bite to eat).

I cannot thank Kate enough for delivering such a special ceremony that really represented what me and my wife are like as a couple and individuals - something that shone through to all the guests. The added touch of literally tying the knot was awesome and we were able to incorporate all the others things we wanted in the ceremony as Kate was incredibly flexible and worked around us.

If you are hesitating my honest advice is don't worry about looking any further - you've found the people who will make your ceremony extra special and you'll have fun throughout the process with Kate(s)!

10 out of 10, faultless!

Mr & Mrs Mitchell

The wedding ceremony was perfect thanks to Kate. She made our ceremony full of joy and laughter and everyone responded to her, in telling our story of how we met to our wedding day.
Our family and friends looking back on our day and have all said what a fantastic ceremony and that Kate was amazing and really felt special.
Thank you so much for making our day so fabulous.

Absolutely brilliant - would highly recommend!!

Kate D was communicative, personable and really lovely from the outset! We just loved how she took time to get to know us as individuals and a couple to create a perfect ceremony that was just so us. Everyone asked how we knew Kate after the ceremony assuming she was a close friend that our other guests had never met before! The ceremony was funny and sentimental in all the right places and we couldn’t have asked for anything more!!

Kate & Kate Celebrants are the best!!

Kate Dyer led our wedding ceremony at my parent's home and it was absolutely perfect! We loved every moment of it, and we’ve had so many compliments saying it was the best ceremony they’d seen and started the day of perfectly. Lots of people thought Kate was a relative or someone we knew because it was just so personal! We immediately loved Kate and our meeting to get to know each other was so much fun. She learnt loads about us and was able to capture who we are and our story beautifully in our ceremony. On the day Kate was super reassuring for my nervous groom and just great fun to be with on our special day. I highly recommend having a celebrant led wedding and Kate & Kate are the ladies to go to!!
