About
Melita Cameron-Wood is a half-British, half-Maltese multilingual celebrant available for weddings in Sussex and Spain (and beyond). She speaks English (mother tongue), Spanish, German, and French. Intercultural couples, I am your girl! She's originally from the Hastings/Eastbourne area. Whatever your ideal destination, let's chat.
She is an energetic, vibrant celebrant who promises to make your story sparkle on your big day. Fully qualified through the Academy of Professional Celebrants, she is no stranger to getting up in front of big groups of people. She has worked as an MC at a film festival, conducted live Q&A sessions, been in numerous stage productions, and even been on live TV in her career as a journalist. As a kid, she was in the National Youth Theatre, and these days she can either be found on stage at open-mic nights or recording podcasts from home.
She is a professional storyteller, and she takes your story seriously — but that doesn't mean you can't have a bit of fun along the way. She loves introducing a creative flair into her ceremonies. If you want to incorporate a special ritual into your ceremony or want some fun ideas on how to make it truly unique, then she's your girl. One couple wanted to incorporate piña colada in hydration packs into their ceremony, and she's not one to turn down a fabulous request like that! She can make your day just as quirky as you want it to be. But if you'd prefer a calmer, more traditional approach, then that is definitely something she can do, too. Let's make your day as memorable as it can be for all the right reasons. Big hugs, your future celebrant xoxo
Why Choose Melita Cameron-Wood (European Wedding Celebrant)
"What a delivery. The Mexican wave was absolutely brilliant and such a wonderful way to get everyone involved. Your little touches and comments added so much character and humour. It showed your confidence and your ability to make everyone feel relaxed and included. You are clearly not afraid to bring your own personality to the ceremony, and that is such a strength. You have a wonderful energy and a natural way of engaging with people. The balance between warmth, humour and professionalism was excellent." - Tessa Sheehy, Trainer at the Academy of Professional Celebrants.
Have you sat in a wedding and felt bored? Well, Melita aims to make guests feel energised rather than lacklustre. It's about creating a fun environment, helping people to feel relaxed, and allowing LOVE TO CONQUER ALL. Gorgeous. Who doesn't love LOVE?
Well, darlings, why should you choose Melita? She has literally been telling stories for a living for years. She has a background in magazine publishing and journalism, so she knows a thing or two about interviewing people and telling their story in an authentic way. She also writes creatively in her spare time and has had some of her poems published in anthologies before. She also has a newsletter (@unpackpackunpack) where she shares eclectic thoughts, advice for writers, and travel stories. Her point is she knows a thing or two about words.
And with a degree in Modern Languages (French and German) from the University of Oxford and five years of living in Spain, she is also a multilingual girl. Oh, and she's half-British, half-Maltese, so she knows a thing or two about intercultural matches. If you want a seamless ceremony that combines languages or a celebrant who can easily communicate with venue staff and wedding planners, then she can definitely help out with that.
As long as travel expenses are covered, she's happy to get on a plane or a train and be there for YOUR BIG DAY. Let's celebrate in style. Fun guaranteed. Laughter, tears, and love can all intermingle in the fabulous wedding brew. Take a sip now. You won't regret it!
Oh, and if you are looking for a naming ceremony, a vow renewal, or a divorce healing ceremony, she also does those. Get in touch today!

What's my ceremony style?
"You have such a fabulous style, and you are so, so funny. What a performer you are. You really have a wonderful way of bringing your own personality into the ceremony and making every moment feel memorable. You do not meet many performers like you down the lab, that is for sure! Your humour, energy, and confidence shine through, and you have a fantastic ability to engage everyone around you. Couples are going to be so, so lucky to have you as their celebrant." - Tessa Sheehy, Trainer at the Academy of Professional Celebrants
Melita's ceremony style is fun, but professional! She will make sure everyone knows the order of the day in advance. You'll rehearse and go over anything you are unsure of, but she will also make sure to inject your ceremony with flavour, so that everyone remains engaged. She is an attentive listener. This isn't about her. IT'S ABOUT YOU! So, she will make sure to integrate your wishes throughout the ceremony. If you want to pay homage to your long-lost uncle, she'll incorporate him into the ceremony. You want your pet lizard to be part of the ceremony? No problem. Honestly, she loves personalising the experience to make your wedding stand out for all the right reasons. Let's unleash your inner child and create a ceremony that resonates rather than one that falls flat.
