Wedding Celebrants in South West - England

We used Emily for our wedding a month ago. I cannot recommend her highly enough. We wanted a personalised relaxed informal service, from the outset she took time to understand our journey and also came up with some great suggestions to absolutely nail our brief, during the process we felt that she was in total control on had an understanding of what we wanted making the whole process stress free, what we got on the day far exceeded our expectations and is something that we will always treasure. Honestly I could not recommend Emily highly enough great celebrant lovely person.....get her booked!!!!!!

Marie-Clare - what a legend of a human! From day one, she put us completely at ease and made the whole process feel exciting rather than overwhelming. She guided us with questions that made us reflect on our relationship in such a beautiful way, and then wove it all together into a ceremony that honestly blew us away. On the day, she delivered it with such presence, warmth, and just the right balance of humour and sentiment. One moment we were wiping away tears, the next we were belly laughing, it felt so natural and so perfectly us. That’s the gift she has: she makes you feel like the ceremony is being led by a dear friend who knows your story inside out. I can’t picture anyone else marrying us. She didn’t just officiate our wedding - she elevated it. We’ll be forever grateful for her role in our day. 🙌🏽

Our wedding ceremony was everything we dreamed of — a true celebration of love, family, and connection — and Alicen played such a special role in helping us bring that vision to life. From the very first moment we met her, she made us feel completely at ease. Alicen listened so attentively to what we hoped to create for ourselves and our guests, and she crafted a ceremony that truly reflected who we are as a couple. Every single one of our guests commented on how beautifully she conducted the ceremony — heartfelt, personal, and full of meaning. We will always be so grateful to you, Alicen, for the care, warmth, and love you brought to our day. 💕 If you’re considering using a celebrant, I can’t recommend Alicen Dines highly enough — she’ll help you create a ceremony that feels uniquely yours.

We are so glad we chose our wedding day to be the way it was. We had chosen our day to be spent as just the three of us, we wanted our day to have focus on what is important to us, to eliminate expectations of a traditional wedding as we don’t feel this best reflects us, our relationship and our values as a family. we wanted the day to be about our love and devotion to each other and our promise to be the best parents we can be to our daughter. We couldn’t have done this without Mary, our celebrant, she took her time to get to know us and gave us her thoughts on readings and ceremony options, styles, and other traditions we didn’t know off ect, she really took into consideration the idea of how we wanted our ceremony and grew it into a much more personal moment that exceeded our expectations and for that we are really greatfull, it will be a memory we cherish forever.

We got married at the beautiful Wellington Barn, Caine on the 15th May 2025. David stepped in for us 12 days before our wedding as the celebrant we had booked cancelled on us. However we couldn’t be happier that we had David take our ceremony and wish we had booked with him from the start. He was wonderful, very calm and reassuring, put together a script for us so quickly and made a real effort to put us at ease. The ceremony was our favourite part of the day by a mile. David was wonderful with the guest and getting them involved. He scripted a beautifully heartfelt ceremony while also being lighthearted and had us all laughing at times. We can’t recommend David enough!!!!! We have had so many compliments on how wonderful he was and how perfect the ceremony was. We are both in our early 30’s and had family and friends there of all ages. It felt like we had know David for ages and that he felt part of the family. He was incredibly professional and gave us the perfect mix between at traditional ceremony format while making it fun, personal and have a relaxed modern feel. Thank you so much David for giving us the most magical and perfect ceremony, we wish we could do it all over again!!! Love Mr & Mrs Chidrawi xxx

From the very start Maxine was just perfect the connection we felt with her immediately we knew she was our celebrant, she helped us not just write our vows and service but the timing of the whole wedding. She was a planner as well as our celebrant. No question was to small always available when we needed her and ensured our day was just perfect. We cannot speak highly enough of her !!

Julie was fantastic start to end, the moment we met we knew she would be our celebrant. She really helped build out our ceremony, offering loads of ideas and listening to what we wanted from the day. It really helped set the tone for an incredibly personal day full of fun and laughs - all our guests said they loved how the ceremony went and that it was very true to us. I have no qualms recommending Julie - you're in safe hands if you go with her :)

Jules was the perfect addition to our day. She understood exactly the type of ceremony we wanted, and our guests kept saying how much they actually enjoyed the ceremony part of a wedding for once! We can’t thank Jules enough for the ceremony she provided 🤍 Photos by @markhortonphotos

Me and my partner could not imagine our wedding ceremony without Olivia. From the moment we first met we knew we needed Olivia as our celebrant. Throughout our multiple meetings we felt like fast friends, Olivia takes the time to really know you as a couple. We wanted to incorporate a mystery ring bearer and an exchanging of shots and Olivia was onboard from the minute we mentioned it. She came with her own insight but never shut down any of our ideas. I wanted to incorporate a surprise reading which I organised with Olivia which went even better than expected. On the day she set the vibe and even after she left we had so many compliments on the ceremony which blended humour and heartfelt emotions all in one. She mingled pre-ceremony and really set the other individuals involved in the ceremony immediately at ease. She visited myself separately and really kept me calm, giving me an insight into how my groom was also feeling which let me feel involved. We could not recommend Olivia high enough, honestly 5 stars isn't high enough!

We always wanted our special day to be in Cornwall. As it was always our English getaway destination of choice as a couple. Obviously, we were super nervous having the wedding so far away from our home area of Lincolnshire. But after talking through our plans with Sabine and others at Pengelly retreat, we realised it was going to be an amazing experience with these guys helping and planning on our behalf. From the first interaction by video call with Sabine, we knew we had chosen wisely. All questions asked were answered and elaborated upon. Great ideas to make the day as special as possible were suggested and then actioned by Sabine. Honestly, the whole experience was so easy due to the knowledge and professionalism of Sabine. You can not put a price on building memories of such an amazing day. But for the amount we gladly paid for such an outstanding service, it was our pleasure to pay Sabines for her time. Sabine made our wedding day so momentus, it'll never stop bringing a smile to our faces and joy to our hearts.
