About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2020

Last update: June 2023

Are you looking to turn your ceremony from the 'bit before the free drink' to the 'most memorable part of the day'? I can help with that. Unlike the generic ceremony we have all seen a thousand times, I don't just 'insert name here', I get to know you and your stories and together create a completely personal, totally bespoke ceremony.

Whilst I am happy to perform a ceremony of any style, that is the beauty of a Celebrant wedding; no rules! My natural style would be traditional but not formal. I take the outline of a 'traditional' ceremony, with maybe a reading and some music, the vows and the rings, and I fill it with personal anecdotes and intimate stories to create a relaxed, memorable, funny, beautiful ceremony for you and your guests.

I don't want people to sit up straight when they see me at the end of the aisle, by the end of the ceremony I want them to feel like we're old friends. Which by the day itself, we will be! I truely care about you and your special day, and want to take time to get to know you both and give you the ceremony you deserve.

You're getting married, why settle for mundane when you can have bloomin' magnificent!

A friend for life…oh, and our Celebrant!

Where do I start with Olivia?! From the moment I met her, I knew she was the one for me. We laughed, we cried, and we swapped life stories. She was so so easy to work with, mainly because this doesn’t feel like work for Olivia! She brings such warmth and genuine care to her role. We had a small wedding, with a few quirks such as step parenting vows and half the guests live streaming in Australia…and Olivia pitched it all perfectly. Everyone is still talking about how brilliant she was! I’m going to have to have a baby now just to hire her again…😂

Wonderful Celebrant

Every interaction we had with Olivia in the two years of planning our wedding was pure joy. She did the most wonderful job of bringing our little love story to life in a way that was so personal and extremely entertaining for our guests. It was a million degrees hot on our wedding day but she kept us so cool, calm and collected. We loved her so much we asked her to stay all day and be our coordinator. All our guests commented how much fun she was to have around. She just felt like another member of the family (as evidenced by the photobooth photo we forced her to take with us!)

Amazing. Made the day truly

Olivia was just a dream start to finish. She listened and just got us from the first zoom call we had. There were no pre-assumptions of what we wanted or would do, she picked up on our personalities, values and wishes for the day and created something that seamlessly fit. She hit the sweet spot we were hoping for with a balance between hilarious, laid back, sweet and romantic and just a really meaningful moment about our love and relationship.
She just wanted to share in our love and the excitement of our plans, whilst also being helpful and giving guidance when we asked for it in the lead up to our day. She even helped pick songs for ceremony.
Olivia’s character meant she honestly felt like we’d known her as a dear friend for ages by the time our day came around.
Having a celebrant ceremony was one of the things I’m most glad we did (we have a private legal 5 minutes inside with witnesses before Olivia’s ceremony outside). It is such a fun way to include guests in the fun and spirit of your relationship to set the tone for the wedding and have be far more interesting and engaging for guests than the traditional legal part. And I wouldn’t pick anyone besides Olivia now having had her. Was total accident I found her on Hitched.

Literally all our wedding guests were raving about her as soon as they got out of their seats. And I’ve had guests ask me for her details to do their weddings next year!
My only regret is I didn’t hired her to be my coordinator too.

Perfection!

Olivia is an incredible celebrant who you will feel so smug after booking, as she's just amazing! She was brilliant in the lead up to the wedding, arranging calls and a f2f meeting to understand us and the vibe we wanted to bring to the wedding. She had me tearing up at the most unexpected parts and beaming with joy alongside her delivery.
So many guests commented on how it was genuinely the best ceremony they'd ever been to (even the really brutally honest ones who you know wouldn't say anything at all if it weren't true). Stop debating it and book her now!!! Before she's booked up by me again for every event I absolutely need her at in future.

Best Celebrant Ever

Where to start?! From the moment we first spoke to Olivia on Zoom, about 18 months before our wedding, she has been such a joy to work with.

Olivia really took the time to get to know Jamie and I before writing our ceremony. When we read it for the first time we felt like it must have been written by one of our closest friends! She really captured our relationship and our story.

Fast forward to our wedding day! The ceremony was mine and Jamie’s absolute favourite part of the day. It was a celebration of our story and our love, and every single one of our guests agreed. The amount of people who came up to me and said it was the best wedding ceremony that had been to was truly amazing.

If you are thinking of booking her, do it! You won’t be disappointed. Thank you Olivia!

Olivia is simply brilliant!

Olivia was brilliant from start to finish. Her enthusiasm and fun was infectious, both in the planning process and during the ceremony itself. Many people have said to us how much they enjoyed the service - how personal, funny and touching it was. By the end of the drinks reception half the congregation seemed to have signed Olivia up to do their weddings/funerals/birthdays! We can't recommend her highly enough for your big day!

Fun, friendly and fully committed!

We are so happy that Olivia was our wedding celebrant. From our very first meeting she made us feel at ease with her outgoing character and continued to add a warm, positive energy to every interaction. She was a guiding hand for vow and speech writing, and we genuinely feel like we have known her since forever (a special skill that she has!).
Communication was clear and quick throughout and when it came to the big day, Olivia continued to impress. Our friends and family all commented on how confident and funny she was whilst managing to maintain the right level of solemness and sincerity for the ceremony.
Book a meeting with Olivia and you'll see for yourselves. You won't be disappointed!

Best Wedding Celebrant Ever!

Olivia is fantastic! She was our celebrant for our wedding in September 2022 and provided an outstanding service.
As someone who works in the wedding industry I wanted something unique and personal to us and Olivia went above and beyond to do just that not to mention her delightful personality and sense of humour!
Our friends and family adored her and even thought she was a family friend because of how well she got to know us so well prior to the big day. A lot of my friends work in the industry too and commented on how personalised and emotional our ceremony was. I cannot recommend Olivia enough and her highly entertaining podcast "I'll Marry You". x

The most perfect celebrant!

We feel so lucky to have found Olivia to act as our celebrant for our wedding in July 2022. Olivia set the tone of the whole day for us and our guests, and we couldn't have found anyone who better embodied the happy, fun and slightly quirky atmosphere we wanted to create in our festival-inspired wedding at home! She also acted as on-the-day coordinator, and dealt with whatever was thrown at her with aplomb, including a last-minute panic when important guests missed their taxi to the venue and timings had to be revised! The wedding ceremony was so special to both of us, and most of that was down to Olivia's guidance and brilliant (and funny) leading of the ceremony. Every guests we have spoken to since the wedding has sung her praises. We really can't thank her enough!

Olivia is Simply the Best!

We were lucky enough to find Olivia in our search for a celebrant. From our very first meeting we knew that she was exactly who we were looking for to conduct our ceremony.

Olivia is so easy to talk to - it instantly feels like you've been friends for years & after our first meeting we both commented that we could have kept chatting to her all day.

She really got to know us, and showed such genuine interest in finding out who we were as a couple, so that she could create a ceremony that completely reflected us & our story. The ceremony that Olivia delivered on our big day was everything we could have ever wished for, and more.

So many of our guests have commented on how much they loved our ceremony, with many saying it was the most personal, enjoyable and memorable ceremony they had ever been to.

The ceremony really was one of our favourite parts of the whole day & something that will stay with us forever, thanks to Olivia.

If you are thinking about booking her, stop thinking and just do it!

Ooooh You Make Me Liv

Sally and I needed a Celebrant for our 25th wedding anniversary/vow renewal and had Olivia recommend to us by our venue’s event manager. It was the perfect match.

We wanted someone who shared our desire to be fun and informal, and we lucked out with Olivia.

All of our meetings prior to the event were done over Zoom, which saved so much travel time and were just as effective as meeting face-to-face. Olivia’s personality shines through immediately, and we were quickly chatting like old friends.

The whole process of creating the ceremony was made really easy by Olivia’s structured approach and questions, and she was a big help working with Sally to write her vows. Her speech about us at the beginning of the vow renewal, hit the perfect, informal tone and kicked the event off beautifully.

If any more proof were needed that she was our ideal Celebrant, during our final Zoom call I asked Olivia if she wanted to hear the song we were walking in to. She said, “It’s not going to make me cry is it?” to which I replied, “I don’t think so.” Her reaction when I played Your My Best Friend by Queen was priceless. “This is mine and my Mum’s favourite song!” she shouted. It was clearly meant to be.

Our Perfect Ceremony

We had a vision when we began our wedding preparations, but 2020 and life had a different idea for us. Up until literally a month before our wedding, we had planned for a close friend to be our celebrant, but unfortunately life threw them a curveball. Our wedding planner was quick to recommend Olivia, saying she would suit our personalities and the vibe we were after.
And let us tell you, because we cannot stress enough, how absolutely amazing Olivia turned out to be. She made our ceremony PERFECT. It was everything we hoped for, lighthearted and fun, but also sincere and personal. We were so nervous about being up there, but she made us feel comfortable. She brought tears to all of our eyes while simultaneously making us laugh. Every single one of our guests spoke about how brilliant she was. She even reached out to our close friend who could not attend, in order to include his words in our ceremony. She was above and beyond our expectations, and I highly recommend Olivia to anyone. She will make your ceremony feel so incredibly special and one of the highlights of your day.

Olivia MADE our day!!! Love! Love! Love!

Olivia was a delight from start to finish. Charming, hilarious, poignant, thoughtful, camping and dependable are but a few adjectives that come to mind. She really did go above and beyond in crafting our wedding ceremony and making the whole process of working with her such a pleasure. SO many friends and family members relayed (and frankly gushed) at how great she was. To anyone in search of a celebrant - Olivia is THE ONE! Thank you so much Olivia!!

What more could you ask for!

Olivia lit up our day with her amazing celebrant-ing.

She helped to calm our nerves, made the guests laugh their socks off, made my wife cry with her sweet reflections.

Simply the best

Basically just book Olivia for your wedding now!

When planning our wedding we were certain we wanted our ceremony to be celebrant led. We didn't want any stuffiness or formality and more of a relaxed, personable and fun affair and boy did we get that with Olivia!
From the first call we had with Olivia we clicked straight away and knew she was the celebrant for us.
She took time to get to know us individually and separately, our relationship and lifestyle and understood exactly what we wanted from our wedding day.
Olivia balances professionalism with personalism so perfectly and makes the usually quite boring part of the wedding, the highlight of the day!
She helped both of us feel more relaxed on the day, coming to see each of us the morning of to calm the nerves and crack some jokes.
Every single guest commented on her humour and approach and 'how bloody amazing was the celebrant!'
We are so grateful we found our dream celebrant and a true friend for life! Thank you Olivia!
