Fantastically personal and meaningful ceremony
A truly personal and touching ceremony
Our ceremony itself felt so personal and she has a wonderful skill of making the whole room of guests smile and feel included. Her dedication to finding out all the little details and nuances of our relationship was remarkable, and that really shone through on our special day.
I would recommend Rachael to anyone seeking a more personal and memorable ceremony and day!
Fantastic from start to finish
The perfect wedding ceremony!
From chatting with Rachael on the phone and from our first meeting she explained all about a Humanist service and it fitted with exactly what we wanted, a service tailored to us and so personal. We wrote our own secret words used in our vows, included our children in the service and the script Rachael
wrote for us was perfect- explaining our “love story” with a fab mix of emotions and lots of humour. So many of our guests have told us how much they loved the ceremony and that they have never been to such a personal ceremony before.
If you thinking of a humanist ceremony you need not look any further for your celebrant, Rachael is fantastic. Simon, her husband, also did our photography and we are delighted with the pictures and his organisation on the day- a true team effort!
Thank you Rachael!
The most perfect celebrant and celebration you could wish for.
Highly recommended!!

Wonderful ceremony, expertly delivered!
There are many good celebrants, but Rachael is probably the best.
So, in recently planning our own wedding, a humanist ceremony was something we wanted. Looking around you’ll find a sea of sameness, in a good way!
Then we found Rachael, meeting up was easy and the process a breeze. What mattered most to us was the balance of love and fun Racheal created for us. Reading the draft ceremony, which was a pitch perfect mix of emotion and laugh out loud, instantly put us at ease and also meant hardly any extra effort for us.
Rachael’s advantage here is her writing background, she is a gifted story writer and teller, this is the most important part of a humanist ceremony. Of course, on our big day, Rachael also deliverd it all with aplomb.
5 stars doesn’t cover it, don’t hesitate in speaking with Rachael.
P.S. as if that wasn’t wonderful enough, Rachael (well, husband Simon mostly) can multi-task, their other business is professional photography. Our photos are glorious, worth every penny!
Ceremony Review - Helen and Will
There was the perfect balance of fun and laughs along with the ‘serious stuff,’ but Rachael’s ceremony set the tone for a perfect day. We are so pleased we pulled the plug on our original wedding arrangements and chose Rachael instead - she has a beautiful, poetic way with words and is so kind and considerate, she’s looked after us so well from start to finish. Just amazing!
Ceremony Review - Matt and Lisa
From the moment we first made contact to the actual ceremony itself, we never doubted her professionalism or her ability to deliver exactly what we were looking for. Indeed, our expectations were exceeded many times over, and we would have no doubt in recommending her to any of our friends, or whoever may require her services. The script she wrote was exactly the right tone, and it managed to say everthing we wanted saying in front of our families. The intimate wedding we had felt really special and it will live long in everybody's memories who attended.

What she'd written captured us and our personalities perfectly, all of our guests commented on how personal and beautiful everything was.
It was delivered in such a natural way, everyone was really engaged in this unique ceremony, it'll be remembered for years to come and not just by us.
By choosing Rachael as your celebrant, you can throw out the rule book and make a truly personal ceremony." - KAYLEIGH AND LISA
