Janey Briers Celebrates

Janey was our celebrant for our November 2021 wedding and she was fantastic! So many guests commented on how brilliant and unique the ceremony was and were very interested to learn more about Janey and what she does. One guest said it was the best ceremony he had ever been to!

Janey was personable, friendly and professional in our first call with her and she really put us at ease over the whole process, particularly as she said part of her services would also be to check everything was as it should be before the ceremony (e.g. sound, lighting, placement of chairs etc) - this really put us at ease and that coupled with her friendly demeanour meant she was the right person for us.

We had a couple of zoom calls with Janey where she took notes for our story and then weaved everything together to create a very cleverly written story that formed our ceremony. It was so us, and just the right balance of humour and touching moments. The delivery on the day was fantastic. Janey also sent us a lot of suggestions for readings and would have also helped with our personal vows, had we chosen to do them.

Janey was always very responsive and kept things moving for us, which was very appreciated as we sometimes lost track of things that were with us to review/do.

We had our legal ceremony a couple of days before and we were thinking of just getting a friend to do this ceremony for us - however, we ultimately decided that we wanted a professional who would have the presence to command a large audience. Janey really delivered on this, and we are so glad we decided to have a celebrant and go with Janey.

Very highly recommended - if you're in two minds whether to book Janey - go for it!!

We interviewed a few celebrants when we were looking for our wedding. The moment we met Janey we just knew - she is warm, kind, and is all smiles and excitement for you and your day.

She was so enthusiastic throughout the whole process; she wrote our script and was happy to tweak whatever was needed (what with all our D&D and Magic the Gathering nonsense). She made it so personal, weaving in my love of penguins to tell our story through the eyes of penguin soul mates.

She had us all crying and laughing, and my mum (who is very much a traditionalist) was blown away by how wonderful it was.

Janey incorporated hand fasting into our ceremony for me, as I can be spiritual, and was unafraid to learn it and prepare it for us when I brought it up.

She is truly the most wonderful celebrant we could have asked for and made our day so light and so emotional in all the right places.

I adore her and highly recommend her.

Thank you, Janey!!

"Jane is absolutely brilliant at what she does; she's compassionate and really cares about the people she works with. Jane has lots of experience in writing and presenting so fits the bill as a celebrant perfectly. If you're considering having a celebrant for your event, then I would highly recommend that you contact her."
