Hi, my name is Jo. I am a highly qualified independent Celebrant, achieving a diploma from an outstanding, awarded company—Civil Ceremonies. I am based in the beautiful South East of England, on the coast.

I provide Wedding Ceremonies, Wedding Renewals and Baby Naming Ceremonies. I chose the name of my brand, 'Love Story Ceremonies By Jo' because I really want to be able to tell a story sharing your love, whilst creating emotion and warmth. I will take time to get to know my clients; if it's a wedding, I'll begin finding out when and how they met. Was it love at first sight? Is there a funny anecdote the couple would like to share with their family and loved ones? I think capturing touching, moving moments and humour is really heart warming. Maybe for renewals, there have been some of life's unexpected challenges in the couple's journey that have made them stronger and resilient, creating a love deeper than at the start.

I am known for my fun, warm, and empathetic personality, so each couple I work with will receive a wonderful bespoke service tailored to their dream ceremony. The beauty of a celebrant-led ceremony is that nothing is off-limits! I can make your vision come true! Whether it's a particular theme you desire, inside a traditional wedding venue or outdoors on a coved secluded beach, it can happen! It doesn't have to be 'The norm'. You may choose for all of your guests, (if they would like and obviously if they're over 18) to enjoy a shot of your favourite drink!

As your celebrant, I will have regular chats and meetings with you to discuss the ceremony content and ensure that you're both happy with the creation.
If you would like to say promises or vows but need some guidance on what to include, I can most certainly help you.

As part of my training, I attended the last part at Cranleigh University with other Celebrants.

Belinda (one of the attendees I instantly connected with) wrote to me after the course with this kind message:

'Jo, you were meant for this role. You bring fun to every occasion; a few minutes in your company made me feel like I'd known you for years. You're so enthusiastic, interested in people and fizzing with fantastic ideas - your clients are going to love you!'
