Reviews for Miranda the Celebrant
Simply the Best! xx
Fast forward a few months and it was time for us to choose someone to lead our ceremony. While we had a (brief!) look around, we kept coming back to Miranda and that inviting and easy-going feeling she had instilled in us earlier in the year! We met up and it was so obvious that there was no one else that could have done it. Her kindness, empathy, and humour during the planning stages put us completely at ease and we knew we were in safe hands. What was really amazing was that Miranda really took the time to get to know us - she listened to our stories, talked about our hopes and dreams, how we met, how we felt, the funny times, the sad times, what we wanted in life, and every funny little quirk in between! She suggested some truly marvellous ideas for the ceremony which made it so unique to us.
The ceremony itself was incredible. She captured our story so well that you may have assumed she had been a fly on the wall for our entire relationship! From the second she arrived at the venue, a calm, serenity descended on everything. She co-ordinated with all of the venue staff, the photographers/videographers, and spoke at length to each family member to make sure they were all catered for as well. She really did go the extra mile and we cannot thank her enough. She even (potentially most importantly) asked the vital question to my two younger brothers, the best men, just before the ceremony started…. “Have you got the rings?”…. They didn’t…. And while I take responsibility for not physically giving them to them that morning, it is a perfect example of how professional and amazing Miranda is. She just quietly sorted any issues out and made the day run so smoothly. Our friends who came are still talking about how amazing she was and how engaging she made the ceremony.
We are so glad that we chose Miranda, the day would have been very different without her there. Her empathy, humour, and kindness clearly knows no bounds and she was instrumental in making the day so special. One that we will treasure and talk about forever - thank you for everything from the bottom of our hearts! xxx

Miranda made our wedding the best!
So helpful outside of the ceremony as well, as someone who didn't have a planner or much help organising the wedding it was amazing to know I had someone else in my corner to help me sense check the 'usual' rules etc. She's fantastic!
Magical, lovely, attentive
We met her at an alternative wedding fair and as soon as we walked in to the room we found ourselves drawn to her welcoming atmosphere. She made us feel right at home and after striking up conversation about what we wanted for our ceremony, she blew us away with her breadth of knowledge and plethora of supportive ideas. Even without confirming our booking with her, she had fully embraced our visions and was genuinely excited to see how it would all pan out.
Once we had booked, she got to work right away spending time listening to what we envisioned and adding her own ideas into the mix. Miranda brought an air of excitement, joy, knowledge and genuine passion to the planning that made us feel like we had made the perfect choice!
We met a few times to discuss our options and Miranda even took on working alongside my father to incorporate a handfasting and mead ceremony alongside the more traditional elements of a ring warming and vow exchange.
When the time came to write our ceremony and personal vows, Miranda sent us fantastic guides full of helpful hints and tips. We loved sharing date nights sat filling out fun and quirky questionnaires to share our stories with her. These turned out fantastic and we were thrilled when we received the first draft of our script giving us goosebumps ahead of the real thing!
On the day Miranda was incredibly helpful arriving early to help direct final preparations and calm last minute nerves. When all was ready to start she led a wonderfully moving, heartwarming and unforgettable ceremony.
We have had numerous compliments of just how special this part of our day was because of Miranda's words full of love and devotion. She spoke respectfully of our story covering all of the important details and guided us through the creation and delivery of our personal vows.
After the wedding day we received a wonderful selection of gifts, hand picked and thoughtful, which were incredibly personal and added a fantastic finishing touch alongside a printout of our ceremony and vows to keep and read whenever we want to look back on an incredible day.
We will be forever grateful for Miranda's guidance and contributions to our wedding day, we can't recommend her enough!
Miranda is honestly just a wonderful person all round and we can't wait for an excuse to hang out with her again some time soon.
Miranda is THE BEST!
From start to finish, Miranda has been amazing. We felt looked after at every step of the way, with Miranda helping our day to feel that much more special.
Miranda's particular standout qualities include her ability to bring together all our personal anecdotes and in-jokes to the ceremony, her keen attention to detail and most of all her ability to control the guests while still making us feel like the centre of attention.
Miranda felt more than a Celebrant, she is someone who cares deeply about us and our marriage, and it truly felt like an old friend was leading the ceremony!
Miranda is an exceptional Celebrant, and we would recommend her to anyone thinking about having a Celebrant-led ceremony.
Original and heartfelt
We loved our ceremony so much and cannot recommend Miranda highly enough.
When You Want the Wedding of Your Dreams
Highly recommended!
Miranda was able to incorporate everything we wanted and created a truly special ceremony that felt warm, full of love, and had plenty of laughs. We really enjoyed the online meetings and the process of building the ceremony, too, with plenty of guidance when we needed it and all the time and care that went into making it feel perfect for us. She told our story wonderfully, made it feel light-hearted but with emotional, reflective moments, and left everyone glowing.
Not having to stress about the ceremony on the day was also brilliant - Miranda co-ordinated in the background with our photographer and made sure everyone was happy with their part. It went off incredibly smoothly and was a great way to start the day - everyone was left with huge smiles.
And my sister was so impressed that she immediately decided to book Miranda for her own wedding later in the summer! We really can’t recommend her enough, for everyone, and especially for LGBTQ+ weddings :)
Miranda the celebrant recommendation
We never doubted that the ceremony she planned would be anything less than fantastic, and it was even better than that. We could not recommend Miranda enough.
Best Decision We Made For Our Wedding!
She took the time to get to know both of us individually and worked closely with us to tailor a heartfelt ceremony that was personal and completely true to who we are and our story.
She also connected with our families the night before at the rehearsal, and our guests haven’t stopped raving about how beautiful and meaningful the ceremony was! Miranda is the reason our wedding day felt so special and we are endlessly grateful to her.

The best celebrant you ever did see!
Truly incredible Celebrant!
Miranda took everything in stride, taking time to research everything we discussed independently and showing real love, care and passion in the crafting of our ceremony. She made the process incredibly easy and low hassle, fitting around busy lives and schedules, giving us the best ceremony we could wish for!
Several guests (including my mum who is a bit of a wedding connoisseur these days) came up to share how much they loved the ceremony. They were especially complementary of how well it fitted and reflected us as a couple and how engaging and interesting it was!
Both Justin and I cannot recommend Miranda enough! If you are lucky enough to have her do your ceremony it will truly be one for the ages. Thank you again Miranda for all your hard work, we will definitely reach out next time we’re in the area to share some historical exploration!
Miranda made the ceremony the highlight of our day!
Miranda really took the time to get us know us, not only as a couple, but as individuals. She asked about our family heritage, hobbies and love story. From this, she was able to give lots of ideas of how we could make the ceremony personal to us. We had a friend write a poem and Callum's Dad write some top tips for marriage. Miranda helped them both, proof reading and offering great suggestions. She also helped us write our own personal vows as we had no idea where to start. We were able to drink whisky from Callum's family town in Scotland, something she suggested, and went down a treat as a cheers at the end of the ceremony.
Not only did Miranda help and support us throughout, she put us at such ease, managing the whole ceremony and the lead up. We never had to chase her for anything or worry about things being done. I didn’t feel nervous on the day and I honestly think it was because of Miranda - I just knew it was going to brilliant with her running our ceremony. No nerves, just excitement, which is how all brides should feel on their wedding day.

Fun, personal and full of love!
We could not recommend Miranda more!
From start to finish Miranda was warm, kind and professional. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted it into the most beautiful and funny love story. She held our hand throughout the whole process, helping us to craft the perfect ceremony for us, helped us write our vows, plus so many other incredible wedding top tips!!
On the day Miranda was simply a joy, we could not have imagined a more perfect ceremony. Even when the heavens opened miranda was quick on her feet to pivot the plan and make sure we did what we wanted to do before we got soaked!
Thank you for making our day perfect Miranda!
The Celebrant of JOY!
