The loveliest human ever!
The wedding was so smooth and just how we wanted it. We wanted to get married with just us too hence why we used Julie’s service and she made it very special. Laughing and joking to calm our nerves while also being professional! Her friend / colleague also was the most loveliest and we really enjoyed. If you are looking to sign the papers with just you and your partner for it to be extra special I really recommend! -

Relaxed and Professional
Exactly the vibe we were looking for. Relaxed and professional approach to the whole process. Everything was on-time and the story and ceremony was hosted run with a confidence and a great sense of humour. -

We’re so glad we chose Julie as our wedding celebrant!
From the start, Julie was warm, kind, and easy-going, instantly putting us at ease. We felt we could trust her straight away.
Julie created a ceremony that was truly personal, heartfelt, and full of just the right amount of humour. So many of our guests commented on how special and meaningful it was—it really set the tone for the whole day.
She was always available, full of helpful suggestions, and clearly cared about making everything perfect. We couldn’t recommend her more highly. -

Wonderful! We could not have asked for more!
My husband and I decided to get married (May 2025) just the two of us. Of course, we still legally required witnesses. We didn't want to drag people off the street last minute (stressful!) or cherry pick two friends/family. So, I began to look into professional witness services. That's when I found Julie, via an internet search rabbit hole. I called her and we chatted about dates and details. She was warm and friendly from the get go so I immediately felt I had found the right person for us. Julie promptly confirmed her availability and sent over a contract, which put me at ease. We live quite far from each other but due to her mileage fee structure she was still able to witness for us at a fair price.
On the day of our wedding, Julie (accompanied by Jenny) arrived in good time, well dressed and with an encouraging and warm demeanour. They laughed with us, happily took photos for us on my mobile phone and were just generally the best witnesses we could have asked for!
Thank you so much to you both. We highly recommend you to anybody looking for a wedding witness or a celebrant! -

Wedding Witness
Julie was fantastic in our need for wedding witnesses! Her replies were quick via email and she arrived early on the day with her friend. Very friendly, relaxed and great to chat to. Would definitely recommend her to others. Thank you Julie! -

Amazing Celebrant! Highly recommend
Julie was super friendly from the very initial conversation and I knew there and then I’d like Julie to be our celebrant, she was professional yet personable and friendly. Julie saw our vision from the get go. She was supportive when my father fell ill and we had gone quiet on the wedding planning, she kept and secured our wedding date despite it being a Saturday in July! Julie was lovely and we loved our ceremony that she had written for us. She got to understand our love story and who we were as a coyote and family. I’d highly recommend Julie to others in future! -

Julie is Brilliant
We couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Julie. Despite going through difficult personal circumstances at the time (which we only learned of later), she put us first and made sure our day was absolutely perfect. She was incredibly supportive in the lead-up and absolutely superb on the day itself. One year on, we’re still happily married - suspect that’s all down to Julie! -

Friendly and Professional
After many years together we decided to do a civil partnership, choosing to tell family and friends after the event. We needed two witnesses.
We were very lucky to find Julie. She replied to our enquiries immediately and was so friendly and professional. On the big day she was there with plenty of time to spare and Julie and the second witness, Jenny, helped calm our nerves! She was totally professional and helpful from start to finish. We would not hesitate in recommending her for your special day. -

Super friendly, courteous and respectful.
Julie was a fantastic witness for our wedding - always keeping us in the loop and on the day was very respectful but also super helpful! She took lots of photos for us and made us feel very comfortable. -
