Meaningful modern ritual and ceremony

Dr Juliette Morton is a celebrant, award-winning writer, and seasoned performer based in Stroud, Gloucestershire, with a deep love of story, ritual, and real connection. She loves holding space for a wide range of events and individuals, creating bespoke ceremonies that are relaxed, poetic, and full of heart - whether for weddings, elopements, vow renewals, or non-traditional celebrations.

Juliette's work blends lyrical depth with genuine ease, crafting moments that feel true, modern, and quietly unforgettable.

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.

What she offers

• Ceremonies crafted from scratch, rooted in the couple's story and values
• 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)
• Creative collaboration to shape tone, readings, and rituals
• 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.
• Nature-inspired elements such as seasonal blessings, handfastings, water rituals, and more
• A relaxed, lyrical vibe that balances depth with simplicity
• Support throughout - from first conversation to final vows
• Works with acapella folk singer groups who can become part of your ceremony

Whether barefoot in a field, candlelit in a cathedral, or surrounded by community and kin in the local pub, Juliette helps couples create a moment that feels effortless and unforgettable.
