Meaningful modern ritual and ceremony

Juliette is a celebrant and award-winning writer based in Gloucestershire, with a deep love of story, ritual, and real connection.

Juliette creates bespoke ceremonies that are relaxed, poetic, and full of heart - whether for weddings, elopements, vow renewals, or non-traditional celebrations.

Couples receive thoughtful guidance on the ceremony design, a unique script, and a wedding that feels like art - not admin.

Guests at her ceremonies often remark on her skill of 'holding space,' the calm and gravitas she brings and the power of her ability to guide proceedings flawlessly from start to end.

Juliette has decades of experience working in events and is a highly regarded poet and writer (find her online: JLM Morton) - celebrancy is simply a natural extension of that work, deepening her service to communities.

The perfect Celebrant for our special day!

We honestly couldn’t recommend Juliette enough. From the very beginning, she was incredibly helpful and supportive, and made the whole process of planning our ceremony feel a lot less stressful than expected.

She had some lovely ideas that made the ceremony feel really personal to us, including lighting a candle in memory of my dad and doing a ring warming with our family and friends. Those little touches meant so much to us and made the ceremony even more special.

Juliette was also really accommodating fitting a rehearsal for us at quite short notice, which we were so grateful for.

She was brilliant when things didn’t quite go to plan too! My bridesmaid misplaced my vows during the ceremony, and without any fuss Juliette handed me her phone so I could read them from there and carry on. It could have been a stressful moment, but she handled it so calmly that it really wasn’t.

We had made a whole weekend of our wedding and stayed at the venue with our family, and even the owners of the venue commented on how great Juliette was, which says a lot.

Thank you so much, Juliette, for being such an important part of our day and for helping us create a ceremony that felt so personal to us.

A wonderful experience!

We really didn’t know what to expect from the process, being in our mid-forties, non-religious, anti-formalist and never having been married before. Right from the start, Juliette made us feel totally at ease and tapped into who we really are and what we wanted from this special day. She just got it, and she got us.

Our anxieties were definitely building as we planned the wedding, especially around this important part of the day. But as soon as we spoke to Juliette, those worries washed away.

Juliet guided us through the process every step of the way, gently offering us different ideas but always reassuring us that we could have whatever type of ceremony we felt was right for us.

The ceremony Juliette wrote and created was absolutely beautiful. She really captured the essence of us, our love story and our hopes for the future. Her presentation was sincere and faultless. You could feel the love in the air and everybody who was there said the same.

Juliette played a massive part in helping us create that blissful moment in time - something that felt so completely us. It’s a memory that will stay with us forever, and one that our close friends and family will cherish too.

We love Juliette and everything she does, and we would recommend her to other couples in a heartbeat.

Juliette was brilliant

Juliette was outstanding. We knew that she was the perfect fit right from saying hello in our first meeting. Everything was so personalised and right for us. She made everything stress free in the build up and was excellent on the day. So many of our guests commented on how personal and lovely the ceremony was. A really great person to be involved in our wedding

Calm and creative!

From the very first conversation, Juliette understood exactly our vibe and what mattered to us - she shaped a ceremony that felt deeply personal, beautifully worded, and completely true to who we are. Family kept telling us how moving and original it was. The whole experience felt calm, grounded, and genuinely joyful. We’re so grateful for her care and creativity.

Perfect Day

Juliette helped us create the perfect day for our wedding with her intuitive creativity and thoughtful design of the ceremony. With her guidance, we included a handfasting ritual in our ceremony which was so beautifully done that none of us will ever forget it. Can't recommend Juliette highly enough!

Beautiful, bespoke and unforgettable!

Working with Juliette was a joy from start to finish. She listened with real attention and shaped a ceremony that reflected who we are, not a template. Her words were poetic without ever feeling overdone, and she held the space with calm confidence. We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful or intuitive celebrant.

Celebrant

I am an independent secular celebrant, writer and creative producer.

I create stunning, personalised modern ceremonies that mark life’s rites of passage with depth and meaning. An award-winning poet and writer, I've been drawn to celebrancy as a natural extension of my wider work.

Stroud‑based, serving Gloucestershire and the West/South West, I like to craft nature‑inspired ceremonies for weddings, funerals, memorials, naming ceremonies, and life transitions that blend symbolism and ritual with well-chosen words to make ceremonies that never feel generic or off‑the‑shelf but reflect the people at their centre.

What I offer

  • Ceremonies crafted from scratch, rooted in your story and values
  • Support with selecting readings and music
  • Nature-inspired elements such as seasonal blessings, handfastings, water rituals, and more
  • A relaxed, lyrical vibe that balances depth with simplicity
  • Vow writing workshops for couples who want to create their very own vows that feel like a true reflection of their personalities.
  • Hen parties - creating rituals and shared spaces that bond the sisterhood, giving thanks for all that you've given one another and all that you will continue to give in the years ahead (see my deals)
  • Bespoke poems created especially for each couple, based on your story
  • Ceremonies that honour diverse identities, traditions, and access needs - with thoughtful language, flexible formats, and a commitment to emotional and cultural inclusion.

My job is to bring tradition and innovation together to create ceremonies that feel effortless, elegant and profoundly personal.

Couples and families choose me for bespoke ceremonies that are beautifully written and deeply resonant. As a writer and ritual‑maker, I bring a rare blend of creativity, calm presence, and attentive listening to every milestone I support.

I think of myself as less of a 'performer' of ceremonies, than a 'holder' of them - a steady pair of hands who works with style and grace to ensure that everything runs smoothly and leaves guests with the feeling that they've just experienced something very special indeed.

I'm a fully trained member of the Fellowship of Professional Celebrants, the largest organisation of independent celebrants in the UK and Europe. I'm also a founding member of the Celebrants Guild and my services are fully insured.
