Last update: July 2026

Operating out of Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, Cheshire, North West, Shropshire and North Wales(UK wide), Nigel Celebrant provides ceremony services at weddings for couples seeking to tie the knot. Nigel Bould is a licensed celebrant with years of experience to his name. This family man delights in getting to know couples and portraying their love stories through unique scripts. I feel very humbled by my 90 plus reviews, I thank all of my Brides and Grooms for thier lovely words

My style and approach as a wedding celebrant are in qualities that define genuine, happy, kind, and hardworking characteristics. I believe that every love story is unique and deserves to be celebrated in a way that reflects the couple's personalities and values.

I approach every couple with sincerity. I take the time to truly listen and understand their journey, ensuring that their ceremony is a true reflection of their relationship.

Services Offered

Firstly, I didn't realise how much my personality attracts couples to book me, through the feedback/reviews I have received, I am totally humbled. I am very much a people person and communication with Brides and Grooms is key to my business, giving them guidance and offering advice on many wedding subjects. I will put you at ease and give you the confidence for your wedding day.

Continuous contact and communication is key, Brides and Grooms create their ceremony with my guidance and experience, empathy and building trust in me with them, and all my Wedding couples will say that we became good friends. Drafting their ceremony is a privilege, once drafted it is sent to them to be proof read and returned with any changes, if we get to draft 87, I don't mind, its their special day. I meet all my couples the week or days before the wedding day, its a nervous and exciting day for them, during the ceremony I whisper each and every section to them, they are then aware what is coming up next

Nigel can provide his services in any location that best suits you. From town hall to back garden, no idea location is out of bounds for this celebrant.

Nige was one of the best decisions we made for our Wedding!

We are so thrilled to have had Nige officiate our wedding ceremony. His calming and enrapturing manner allowed for a touching, funny and authentic ceremony delivered with gravitas. Nige is kind, gracious, easy to get along with and makes it feel as though you’ve known him your whole life, which makes it incredibly easy to open up to him and allow him to tell your story. He also does an incredible job to calm any nerves both before the big day, and during the ceremony, with helpful tips and pointers delivered so to not disrupt the flow of the ceremony. Nige also allowed to us to edit the ceremony in advance, and was patient with us being picky and suggesting changes. Booking Nige was the easiest decision we made in the whole wedding process, he was the first celebrant we met, and we knew instantly that we did not need to meet any others. We’ve since had lots of positive comments from our guests that agree that the ceremony Nige delivered was incredibly personal, honest and filled with love.

Friendly professional and helpful celebrant

From booking Nigel he was very friendly helpful and informative on guiding us through the process. We were very nervous about speaking in front of all our friends and family but Nigel really put us at ease and guided us through before and on the day. He provided the ceremony exactly as we wanted it and made us feel very at ease at the end of the aisle.
We would highly recommend him to anyone as he provided a very professional but friendly service from start to finish.
Thank you Nigel

Thank You, Nige

We honestly couldn't have asked for a better celebrant than Nige.
From our very first conversation, his communication was excellent, and he made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. On the day, he was so calm, reassuring, and genuinely kind, helping us feel completely at ease during our ceremony at our family home.
He created a beautiful, personal ceremony that was exactly what we had hoped for. So many of our guests commented afterwards on how lovely and heartfelt it was, which meant so much to us.
Thank you, Nige, for making our wedding day so special. We would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a warm, professional celebrant who truly cares about making your ceremony unforgettable.

Nigel is simply amazing

We are from overseas but Nigel made it so hassle-free. Despite the late arrival of our guests, Nigel was professional from start to finish. Even though we are foreigners, he guided us through each and every step so that we understand what was going to happen. Choosing Nigel as your civil celebrant is a no brainer.

Nigel was brilliant!

Nigel has been very helpful and supportive ever since we decided to let him be the celebrant of our wedding ceremony. He went through multiple drafts with us and made the ceremony so meaningful and moving.

Wonderful celebrant

We contacted Nige 2 years before we got married. His warm friendly nature and sense of calmness put us at ease before we even got chatting properly. Nige supported us throughout the whole process of our wedding and nothing was ever too much trouble. He was happy to travel to meet us and offered guidance and reassurance. He is thorough and supportive. The ceremony was lovely- we had lots of compliments about Nige and how he conducted the ceremony. A lovely chap, one of a kind. Thanks Nige xxx

Excellent celebrant

We found Nigel online while looking for a celebrant for our wedding. In our first meeting, though we didn't know much about celebrants, Nigel was very friendly & chatty and made us feel at ease straightaway. He took the time to get to know us & our story - we felt lucky to have him as he had a busy schedule of weddings and funerals!

Nigel made sure our wedding would be very personal to us, sending us each questionnaires to fill in to help him put together his speech about us. The first draft he sent was so perfect, there was nothing we wanted to change.

The ceremony itself was lovely & was highly praised by all our guests for how emotional & personal it was. Nigel helped calm both our nerves at the altar, and provided our vows, readings etc in very nice printed books to keep, even adding the colour scheme for our wedding in bows, so that we didn't have to worry about doing any of that ourselves.

We would highly recommend Nigel as we knew we were in good hands with him straightaway, and he made the best day of our lives even better!

Don’t Hesitate to Book Nige

We booked Nige as we wanted a very personal ceremony to ourselves. We got this and more.

Nige took the time to get to know us and the ceremony was better than we could have imagined. It fitted us perfectly.

If you want a personal and fun ceremony, book Nige. We wish we could do it all over again.

Outstanding service by Nigel

Nigel was very personable - showed an actual interest in Mark & I as a couple. Nigel wanted nothing but the best for us and this showed in his write up about us that he shared during the service. Nigel has a genuine presence about him and we are so very grateful that we chose Nigel as our celebrant.

Best day ever 25/04/2026

Where do we even start?
We first met Nigel five years ago when I approached him to see if he would conduct my dad’s funeral..
I just knew back then he was something special, so kind and compassionate that we had to use him to perform our ceremony.
Fast forward 4 years we booked Nigel as soon as we booked.
Nigel is one of the most genuine nice guys you’ll ever meet.
So kind, attentive, compassionate Professional yet personable and even quite emotional.
He meets with you on numerous occasions to get your service perfect for you, he gives you options to use, guidance, reassurance and confidence to build a service that’s so personal to you.
He has the smoothest of voices, when he talks he’s calm and collected and he even colour coordinates his tie to suit..😍
You really won’t be disappointed in using Nigel as your celebrant.
One million percent recommend this lovely Celebrant every time ♥️

A wonderful experience!

We honestly can’t thank Nigel enough. We were both so nervous on the day (classic introverts!), but his warm, friendly and approachable manner instantly put us at ease. After the ceremony, we both said how much he’d made the whole experience feel calm, relaxed and completely stress‑free. So many of our guests also commented on how lovely it was.

He was brilliant to work with in the lead‑up too — always available for a chat, genuinely listening to what mattered most to us, and guiding us through creating a ceremony that felt personal and meaningful.

His attention to detail was fantastic. Nigel even matched his suit and tie to our colour scheme, and the beautiful ceremony pack we received afterwards (complete with a full transcript) was such a thoughtful touch. The quality is amazing, and they’re keepsakes we’ll treasure for years to come.

We’re so grateful we chose Nigel for our special day and would highly recommend him to anyone.
