I was asked ‘where did you find her, she was amazing?!’

As a laid back couple who didn’t want the formalities of a traditional wedding we are so lucky to have found Kate as our celebrant. With my now husband Dave being surprisingly shy and anxious about saying his vows in front of an audience Kate quickly got to work to put him at ease. Kate knows how to read her bride and groom instinctively and makes adjustments to her service to make them feel as calm and comfortable as possible. With us this came in the form of jokes and humour!
Before I had even walked down the aisle Kate had already started to get the guests laughing and poking fun at Dave’s best men-brilliant! Weddings can be such up tight events when you put together 2 sets of families in a room together with awkward hello’s and neither side knowing who is who. Kate dispelled that atmosphere instantly and by the time I had walked down the aisle to Dave everyone was relaxed and having fun.
Kate’s personalised ceremony was worth every penny. She remembered key facts about Dave’s unusual job and how we work as a couple together. There was nothing religious, formal or generic about our ceremony. Even Dave’s young children understood the jokes and felt part of the ceremony with Dave’s eldest son being the ring bearer.
Lastly, Dave's side of the family who are all from in and around London could not stop raving about Kate. I was asked ‘where did you find her, she was amazing?!’ and ‘how refreshing was that ceremony, I have never experienced anything like that before!’
So Kate, a very big thank you for being part of our laid back, special day you were the perfect fit!

My Dads Funeral

Thank you Kate D. Funeral yesterday and the service was truly wonderful, you got my Dad perfectly. It made a very stressful situation much better. My Dad would have approved wholeheartedly so many comments made afterwards you made an impression on the congregation.

Just pure celebrant magic!

Where do I start! Dave and myself had Kate T as our amazing celebrant on the 14th Sept 23 and it she honestly, made it one of the most special parts of the day. The story and script she crafted was so unique, adapted perfectly to us and had all of the guests captivated in our story. We had so many lovely remarks about how beautiful her script was, interactive and they all enjoyed actually getting to hear our story of being together. I had picked these lovely ladies through the venue recommendation (Pilgrims Rest) and I couldn't have been more delighted. She got the guests involved, giggling and we really felt the love. I also organised the wedding from abroad, which Kate was on her A-game with communication + zoom meetings; very thankful! I can truly say, these ladies are exceptional at what they do and will make your ceremony have that extra sparkle you need. Thanks again for creating the best day we've ever had! Much love, Megan + Dave x

Kate was amazing!

We knew we wanted the personal touch to our ceremony with our celebrant. Kate was awesome, and gave us just that. She wrote us a personalised ceremony after a zoom call together, which had our guests laughing - they how ‘us’ our ceremony was. Kate also popped into the room I was getting ready i, to check in before the ceremony started and run through things. This really helped! Thanks Kate x

The best!!

We had the absolute pleasure of meeting both Kates at our wedding last June with other Kate having to step in at the very last minute. It really was the most incredible day, thanks in no small part to the both you. The words were tailored perfectly to the two of us, not a dry eye in the house. Love Jack and Leo

Wonderful energy,

We had a Jack in the Green themed spring ceremony in May having had to postpone twice due to covid and then the arrival of our second son. In the intervening years, our wishes for the day changed, but Kate was flexible and supportive throughout. She listened carefully to what we wanted and wrote and delivered a really thoughtful, beautiful and entertaining ceremony that celebrated not just us as a couple, but our children, wider family and friends. It was completely unique to us, and honoured the special people in our lives just as we'd hoped. She even got everyone to join in with a sing-a-long at the end! Her wonderful energy really set the tone for the day and many people commented afterwards on what a great job she'd done and how much they'd enjoyed our handfasting/naming ceremony/family and friends celebration. Thank you again, Kate! It was a golden day and just the occasion we all needed after a tricky couple of years.

Best Celebrants EVER

Kate and Kate are absolutely amazing. We had Kate D and she spent lots of time getting to know us and writing a personalised service that both summed us up beautifully and enabled us to have our wedding our way. All our friends and family were blown away by what a great wedding ceremony we had. Everyone was impressed with the knot trick and all our friends/family laughed and cried with us. I cannot recommend Kate and Kate highly enough, your wedding will be better for having them there.

The amazing kates

The Kates were fantastic!!
Ive watched both kates marry my dad when they were with the council when i was a young and it was a memory that stayed with me for a lifetime so when i became engaged my first port of call was to the kates. They did not disappoint, it was everything we wanted and more. The uniqueness they provided has left so many guest still talking about our day 7 months later. Taking our story and making it even more magical whilst adding just enough harry potter to match out theme was perfect. Everyone laughed and cried the happiest of tears.
10/10 could not recommend anyone better especially if your wanting the traditional with a twist.

Amazing Kate

What can I say my husband and I met both Katie's at a wedding fair in 2021 and from the moment we met them we wanted them to do our ceremony. Kate made it fun especially when one of the golfers outside decided to jet wash his cart outside the open window🤣 And we literally tied the knot which was such a nice touch. All our guests said it was one of the best weddings they had been to 🥰 Thanks Kate T

We just wanted to say what an absolute pleasure is was to meet you Kate to go over our vows and wedding script.
You've done a cracking job!
It's beautifully written with a mixture of soppy tear jerking moments and hilariously funny moments too. The balance is spot on ?
All our worries have melted away! And we can't wait to celebrate our big day with you. ?
