Warm, joyful and personal wedding ceremonies for couples who want something that truly feels like them. The kind of ceremony where guests laugh loudly, cry unexpectedly and leave saying, “That was so them."

Hi! I’m Emily - but please call me Em - an independent wedding celebrant based in Surrey, creating heartfelt ceremonies filled with love and laughter for couples across Surrey, London and beyond to wherever your love takes me.

I am so proud to be a recommended wedding celebrant at some of Surrey’s most loved wedding venues, including The Barn at Botley Hill and Gate Street Barn. I work closely with couples to tell their story in a way that feels right to them. Whether your ceremony is romantic and emotional, relaxed and playful, or somewhere beautifully in between, I’ll take the time to get to know you properly and craft something that reflects your relationship down to the smallest detail. Every word written just for you so your celebration feels unmistakably yours.

So, ready to chat about your wedding?

What I offer as your Wedding Celebrant:

  • The creation and delivery of a personalised wedding ceremony which is 100% you
  • A little welcome gift to support you through wedding planning
  • A WhatsApp group with you both so we can stay in touch, share ideas etc. in the lead up to your big day
  • Access to a password protected part of my website with lots of useful resources which will help you to think about your wedding ceremony in more detail (including a personal vow writing guide)
  • Two questionnaires (one for ceremony details, one for all the lovely stuff - these, along with any meetings, are what I use to create your personalised wedding ceremony)
  • A wedding ceremony workshop where we go through the first draft and make tweaks and edits as you wish
  • A vow writing tutorial (optional)
  • Handmade personal vow and reading books
  • Lots of practise on my side to make sure your wedding ceremony runs smoothly
  • Extra meetings for a rehearsal/anyone doing a reading etc.
  • On the day, I arrive nice and early, will check in with you and your suppliers and anyone else involved in your wedding ceremony
  • After your ceremony, you will receive a lovely little gift and I will stay in touch for as long as you want me to!

If all of this sounds like your cuppa tea, I would love to be your wedding celebrant!

Now taking bookings for 2026, 2027 and 2028.

With love,

5 star wedding celebrant

We cannot recommend Emily highly enough. From start to finish, she was absolutely incredible.

Her attention to detail was outstanding, and she kept in touch with us throughout the entire planning process, making us feel supported and reassured every step of the way. Emily took the time to get to know us as a couple and worked closely with us to create a ceremony that felt personal, meaningful, and completely unique to us.

She is so friendly, warm, and approachable, and her positive energy was infectious. Emily had so many wonderful ideas for our ceremony, helping us create something that truly reflected us as a couple. Her creativity, enthusiasm, and experience were invaluable, and she was always happy to offer guidance and suggestions whenever we needed them.

What really stood out was how much she genuinely cared about our wedding. She was fully invested in making our day special, and it felt as though she was just as excited about it as we were. Her passion for what she does shines through in every aspect of her work.

On the day itself, knowing Emily was waiting at the bottom of the aisle to conduct our ceremony immediately put me at ease. Seeing her friendly face helped calm my nerves, and I knew we were in safe hands. She delivered our ceremony beautifully and made it one of the most memorable parts of our day.

Thank you, Emily, for helping to make our wedding so special. We are so grateful and would recommend you to anyone looking for a celebrant who truly goes above and beyond. ❤️

the best of the best 🤍

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant than Emily. From the very beginning, she really took the time to listen to us and understand exactly how we wanted our wedding to feel. We ended up moving our venue partway through the planning process, and Emily was incredibly supportive and flexible, making the whole transition feel effortless.

She created the most magical and deeply personal ceremony—something that truly reflected us as a couple. So many of our guests have since told us how beautiful and unique it was, and how much it stood out compared to other weddings they’ve attended.

What really makes Emily special is how much she genuinely cares about the people she works with. You can feel that she’s personally invested in making your day perfect. She made us feel completely comfortable throughout, from regular check-ins beforehand to offering thoughtful little tips that made a big difference.

On the day itself, she was calm, organised, and just a joy to be around—always ready to help with anything we needed. Her fun, can-do personality brought such a positive energy to the whole experience.

We’re so grateful to Emily for giving us a ceremony we’ll never forget.

Brightens up any room.

Being a Groomsman to a somewhat anxious Groom, there was only so much Paramore and Whisky I could supply to keep things calm. That was until Emily turned up. She was like a ray of sunshine and comfort blanket in one. The whole wedding party calmed as she worked her magic around the venue and made every one feel safe before delivering a well crafted and personal ceremony. 10/10 would ask to do my vowel renewal or ceremony for wife number 2!

Amazing celebrant - thank you Emily!!

My wife and I wanted a celebrant for our wedding and having considered a number of different celebrants, we're so pleased we went with Emily! Her excitement about making sure everything is perfect is infectious and her attention to detail in the lead up to the big day was a huge help to us too, so when we got to the venue on the day we knew everything would be in safe hands.

The whole process was really straightforward and she had great advice and resources for us when we weren't sure where to turn (for instance around how to write our vows and things to consider when picking readings). We'd recommend Emily in a heartbeat to any other couples considering a wedding celebrant! Thank you, Emily!

Wow wow wow!!!

All I can say is wow!!! Emily was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Her infectious smile and her attention to detail made our vowel renewal the most beautiful experience. She was engaging and warm with an amazing sense of humour through out. We couldn't have picked a better celebrant than her. Thank you so much Emily for making it a magical experience xxx

Wedding Celebrant

If it wasn’t obvious already, I bloomin’ love a cuppa! I love everything a mug of tea encompasses; warmth, a good gossip with an old friend, a comfort blanket on rainy days, a member of the 6am club and a sidekick to my laptop when I’m busy writing personalised wedding ceremonies.

My love for weddings all started when I was 16, when I worked weekends waitressing for Two Many Cooks (if you haven’t booked your caterer already, check them out!). I spent countless Saturdays balancing (very heavy) drink trays and watching couples celebrate their love, often mesmerised by a bride gliding across a perfectly kept lawn at an array of beautiful Surrey wedding venues.

I absolutely adore dancing and once upon a time attended The BRIT School. These days, I mainly dance in the kitchen with my husband anytime Defying Gravity comes on the radio or to entertain my very energetic toddler.

I am the owner of a small fluffy dog, Freddie the cavapoo. And when I’m not crafting and delivering ceremonies as a wedding celebrant in Surrey and surrounding areas, you can find me in the classroom as a part-time primary school teacher.

My very own wedding ceremony was celebrant-led and it completely changed how I viewed weddings. We had the freedom to create a ceremony that was totally us - personal, heartfelt yet full of joy and laughter. That experience is what inspired me to become a wedding celebrant.

Now, I create and deliver bespoke celebrant-led wedding ceremonies for couples across Surrey and beyond - ceremonies that reflect your personalities, values, and love story. Every ceremony made with love and just your cup of tea.
