Last update: April 2025

Hi, I'm Nikki; the owner of Perfect Words Ceremonies. I'm an award-winning, professional, experienced Surrey wedding celebrant who is approachable and passionate about creating beautiful, relaxed, unique, heartfelt couple-led wedding ceremonies.

I work with couples in Surrey, Kent, London, Sussex and across the South East of England who are non-religious and also those with faith, mixed faith, and spirituality. All my ceremonies fully reflect my couples values and beliefs and are inclusive to all.

My warm, calming and genuine nature leads to an enjoyable working experience and I pride myself on the relationships I have been fortunate to have enjoyed with my couples on our journey to their big day. I also fully understand the importance of working as part of a team and I will liaise with your other wedding suppliers and venue to ensure everything runs smoothly during your ceremony.

If possible we will meet in person and get to know each other and with your input, I will craft your beautifully balanced, tailor-made ceremony that reflects your style and personalities. My organised yet calm approach will allow you to relax, knowing you are in safe hands, feeling supported and ready for your big day.

I have a real passion for story-telling, and my friendly, engaging delivery style ensures your ceremony will be just how you dreamed it would be: relaxed, enjoyable, and leaving wonderful memories for you and your wedding guests to treasure.

Every couple I have worked with has been blown away by the service I offer; check out my 5* reviews on Hitched and also on Google where you'll find many more. It would be my privilege to work with you to create your totally individual wedding ceremony. I hope you get in touch so we can begin our journey to your big day together.

Fantastic celebrant!

Nikki was friendly and organised, and we loved how she incorporated so many personal touches into our ceremony, including stories about our lives together, the hand fasting which felt really unique, and helping us choose our own vows.

The most beautiful, personal ceremony!

Nikki was amazing! We wanted more than the traditional registry celebration with a personalised ceremony and Nikki really delivered! She spent so much time getting to know us, what we were looking for in a ceremony and what was important to us! She included so many wonderful stories that were perfectly delivered. Our ceremony was really the heart of the whole celebration, and ALL our guests commented on how they've never been to a wedding like this. It was heartwarming and personal and everything we ever dreamt of! Additionally, she was soo easy to work with, flexible, supportive and even helped with details and planning for the ceremony that we hadn't even thought about! She went above and beyond and even printed my sister's speech (which wasn't even part of the ceremony 😂) She was really amazing!We were so lucky to have Nikki on our special day!

Garden Gallery Ceremony

I cannot over-emphasise how incredible it was to work with Nikki for our wedding in September, 2024. We enquired with and spoke to a dozen celebrants but as soon as we chatted with Nikki, I told my now-husband "she's the one". Her warm personality and smiling face immediately put me at ease and I knew she would make our guests feel the same way on the most important day of our lives. When we first met with her, she asked us questions we hadn't even thought about - her attention to detail is impeccable and she almost acted like a wedding planner for us - bringing to attention things you wouldn't even think about if, like me, you haven't planned a wedding before!

During our ceremony, there was literally not a single dry eye in the place. She captured our relationship so perfectly with her words and created the most beautiful ceremony for us. Our guests mentioned how they felt like because of her words, they felt like they got a deeper understanding of who we are and our relationship.

Nikki - I couldn't have imagined our day without you! You are now forever a part of our story and we are so thankful for how special you made it all!

Once Upon a Hever Wedding

Nikki was such a delight to work with! Personable and highly organized, Nikki made the “getting to know you” process effortless! When we met for the first time in “real life” it had actually felt like I had known Nikki for years! The script she created was wonderfully beautiful and she will even give you her transcript to look back on for years to come. Our beautiful elopement ceremony at Hever Castle would not have been the same without Nikki. She helped us to create the intimate, romantic and personalized wedding ceremony we dreamed of-complete with zoom calls and documents to outline all of your wishes and desires. Highly recommend!

Simply the best!!

We first met Nikki at our venue’s open day and from the off she was so enthusiastic and helpful. She went to great lengths including a detailed questionnaire and a visit to our house to make our ceremony as personal as possible and both us and all of our family and friends were so impressed with the outcome. You couldn’t ask for a more friendly, personable and thorough celebrant - would absolutely recommend.

She is incredible!

She is so talented and a true pleasure to work with. She is not just extremely organized, but so timely, kind, genuine, and funny. She made our day fantastic and everyone loved everything she had to say. She really knows how to make a couple feel seen and romantic. I highly recommend trusting her for your big day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Absolutely incredible from start to finish

Nikki was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The amount of effort and detail put in to making everything so perfect was astonishing. From finding out all the small details about us as a couple to keeping us both calm on the big day.

Nikki we can't thank you enough for making our day so special!

Highly Recommend!

My husband and I cannot sing Nikki's praises enough. From our first meeting to the day of our wedding, Nikki guided and supported us every step of the way, going above and beyond her celebrant duties!

Nikki created the perfect ceremony for us, our families and friends. I don't think there was a dry eye in the house which was perfectly balanced with light heartedness.

Like many, we struggled balancing work commitments with wedding planning, however Nikki showed great patience with us whilst ensuring that everything was on track for our big day.

We can't thank Nikki enough and she will always be a huge part of our journey.

30.09.23 Wedding

We chose Nikki as our wedding celebrant for our ceremony in September this year.

From the very beginning she was supportive, informative and open to discussing different options, but also advising what other couples have done, when we got lost!

Nikki took the time to get to know us as a couple, we felt in complete control of making our ceremony right for us. On the day itself we couldn't have been in safer hands, Nikki took charge of making sure everyone knew what they were doing and felt comfortable. She delivered a very personal and engaging ceremony, which so many of our guests commented on.

Nikki, thank you for all you did to help us to envision exactly what ceremony we wanted and helping us deliver it on the day! Despite being late on probably every deadline you set us (sorry about that) you got us in shape for the day and left us with such wonderful memories.

Super Bespoke Service

From the moment Nikki came to our house to discuss our wedding plans, we knew we wanted her to be our celebrant. She is attentive and caring, truly devoted to creating a bespoke service for her lucky couples. We had such a perfect day, and our guests rave about how Nikki set the tone for the whole day - which she did. She encouraged us to try new things, like singing a song during our ceremony, and offering creative non-religious ways to tie the knot (literally!). We would highly recommend Nikki to anyone wanting a truly special and bespoke service that is tailored to how you want your day to feel. 10/10!

Nikki was just so amazing to work with and have taking our ceremony on our special day. She was so attentive and got to know us on a personal level to create the most amazing bespoke ceremony that captured our personalities so well. She was extremely communicative throughout the lead up, and always on the end of the phone if we needed her.
Nikki is an excellent celebrant, and I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Wonderful celebrant!

Nikki produced such a well thought out ceremony that it felt relaxed and easy. She gave off a calm and positive energy – which certainly helped with the nerves! From start to finish Nikki was incredibly professional and organised. And despite us missing a few deadlines she kept us on track and remained flexible, which we really appreciated.

Nikki really got to know us and produced a ceremony that was so personal as a result. She listened to any ideas we had and guided us through the whole process. I don’t think we realised at the time just how much we would benefit from her expertise! Nearly all our guests commented on how beautiful the ceremony was. I think we managed tears and laughter all round!

We wish we could do it all over again, she made it such a special moment!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
