Not only a Celebrant, a confidante, a shoulder to cry on, and now a lifelong friend!

Vince was fantastic from start to finish, he is professional, passionate, dedicated and hilarious. Vince stayed in contact with us from the start of our wedding planning right to the very end. He came to visit our venue with us and made us laugh throughout. He listened to every single detail of our day and executed it perfectly. Our ceremony was out of this world, Vince wrote our script to perfection. Everyone at our wedding complimented his work and Vince even performed a Sabrage which was awesome. He made our day fantastic, personalised everything he did to our requirements and was a true friend to us throughout planning. Vince made some excellent suggestions along the way and made all of our guests and us cry with joy. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day just unforgettable Vince! We've made a lifelong friend and we love you dearly ❤️

Personalised and relaxed yet professional ceremony

Vince created and led the most magical wedding ceremony for us at Knebworth house. His dedication to making personal and meaningful ceremonies far exceeded our expectations when he researched one of our favourite films to inspire a personal poem for the two of us. Interacting with Vince it was clear he takes pride in getting things just right for you and is easy to talk with and to discuss things with during the planning. We would not hesitate to recommend Vince. Thank you so much for setting the scene for our fabulous wedding day.

Warm, personable, professional, intelligent, friendly

Vince was the Celebrant at my daughters wedding in July 2024. I had not met him until the day of the event. He was superb from beginning to end. It was a in a forest setting. He was dressed beautifully for the ceremony, which he conducted. He had written everything himself, after conducting extensive research with Chloe, my daughter. Once that was over, he became Toastmaster for the rest of the day and changed into his red jacket. He is extremely personable, professional, kind, aware, and a great orchestrator. The speeches he handled brilliantly, he was tireless. At the end of the day I felt I had made a new friend. I can thoroughly recommend him, he will not let you down.
Thanks again Vince.
Richard.
