Reviews for George Worthington Celebrant
Wedding Celebrant
George made our wedding personable and allowed us to review our wedding script guiding us through what we should add or remove to make it the best it could possibly be. We had our initial and final consultations via phone/ms teams and then had many conversations via email. George was always willing to answer questions and offer suggestions for us.
I would highly recommend George for your wedding service as we could not have hoped for a better ceremony or celebrant to conduct it for us.
Fantastic!
Beyond a Celebrant,A Friend, a Guide, and an Angel
He wasn’t just a celebrant; he felt like a friend or even a family member. He helped us through the stress, shared in our emotions, and even joined in the confetti shoot! That meant so much to us. I would recommend him a million times over he’s worth so much more than the value of money, and far beyond any previous experience I’ve had.
George truly made our day unforgettable
Personal, Thoughtful and Funny!
He made everyone in the room, and us included, feel so at ease. He told a few lighthearted jokes that were genuinely funny and we kept getting asked who our celebrant was during the day which I think speaks volumes.
He was very personal too, we went for a portmanteau of our names resulting in Boylesekera, and my wife has Shashi has a complex maiden name (Wunnekuarachigay Dorna Shashindri Nayanthara Abayasekera). He sent us voicenotes of him practising how you say it and absolutely nailed the pronunciation which made it so special as we really didn’t want someone to stumble over arguably the most important bit.
We wholeheartedly recommend using George, as he made the day even more special for us.

Meet the team
Bonjour, hello, and congratulations! 🎉
I’m George, a wedding celebrant with a passion for creating ceremonies that are joyful, personal, and full of heart (with just the right amount of humour). My journey into this world started when a few brave family members let me take the reins at their weddings — and I absolutely loved it! There’s something magical about helping two people tell their love story in front of everyone who matters most, and I haven’t looked back since.
Originally from the rolling hills of Lancashire, I now call Canterbury home, where I live with my family — and a very enthusiastic two-year-old who insists on hosting daily tea parties. When I’m not crafting bespoke ceremonies, you’ll likely find me on the rugby pitch, pottering about in the garden, or building something slightly wonky in the shed.
Oh, and if you fancy a touch of je ne sais quoi, I can also conduct your ceremony in French (thanks to my degree in French and a wonderful year living in Perpignan). Perfect if you fancy a bilingual twist or a little French flair. 🇫🇷
Whether you’re after something traditional, totally unique, or delightfully bilingual, I’ll work with you to make sure your ceremony feels 100% you — heartfelt, memorable, and filled with love (and maybe a few happy tears).
