You can hold your wedding celebrations anywhere. The wedding day is a celebration of your marriage, so by hiring a celebrant to celebrate this, you remove all restrictions regarding when, where, how, what, and with whom.
Get hitched how and where YOU want to, and we'll help to make it a completely unique and personal experience.
Join us over the coming weeks for a series of myth-busting posts!

I want as many people as possible to know about this...
I cannot believe what I've just read. One of my couples has sent us emails that have just blown the lid off of what the registration service is trying to do
They should be ashamed of themselves.
My couples are being harassed, sent confusing information, being misled and misguided by lies, and to be quite frank, I've had enough of it.
I'm calling bu****it. It has to stop. Several of my couples have been to sign their paperwork and been grilled to the point of them leaving upset, in tears and with bad memories of this milestone event. This is happening across many counties too.
A registrar is a registrar. They complete the two legal aspects of a marriage. They are NOT independent celebrants. They are not celebrants full stop!
I'm whistle-blowing because somebody has to.
Share if you can.
I'm posting the website info on my stories...shocking behaviour from them. Go have a read...

I think you can see from this feed that guests at our ceremonies have the best time, and our couples just love the whole experience!
We have a new feature coming soon, where you'll be able to learn more about the ceremony experience with us so watch this space!

Yes, they are, and here's why. . .
1) When couples book us they pay a hire fee which secures their date, covers the writing of the draft ceremony, a venue visit plus all meetings and communications.
2) The second payment covers additional writing and script updates (it evolves across many versions as we create it together with you).
3) The third and final payment covers all ceremony prep, final updates, sign-off, certificate and presentation folder preparation and printing, use of our equipment (PA system etc if required), attendance on the day (three hours+), and your very own wedding day blog with our behind the scenes pics and an account of your day.
We are very transparent about our fees, and what is included. So, as you can see, it isn't one fee for us to just turn up with a template script. it's a comprehensive, reassuring, and well-reputed service that we provide, and we only do one wedding a day (so we are all yours, without any rushing).
For comparison:
A registrar charges Ā£700+ for 20 mins. That's Ā£2100 per hour.
We spend 30 hours plus on our couples which equates to roughly Ā£28 per hour.
We work with couples that are looking for a bespoke and personal ceremony experience! Let's enjoy creating something very special together!

I work with all couples, and the dynamics of my couples vary greatly. Some have mixed faith, some are multi-cultural.
This couple are a British Groom and a Danish Bride. He roots are from Africa, and they fused together some symbolic rituals, and lots of fun Danish wedding day elements. It was amazing!
Whoever you are, and however you want to celebrate, we've got you!

Do you know your ceremony options?
You could have a:
* Church/Religious Service

Do you understand the options available to you? Has your venue spoken to you about these?

I am so excited to be finally meeting one of my lovely couples face to face who are getting married this summer... tomorrow I head over to Stratfield Turgis to meet S & A to chat all about their outdoor ceremony.
It's going to be brilliant and I am delivering their story in the form of a poem and it is EPIC!

Absolutely thrilled to have played a small part in this! A BIG step forward for .

I do love an analogy!
If you are newly engaged and planning your wedding, make sure YOU are making the right choice. Make sure you have all of the options so that you can make an informed decision about your ceremony.
You wouldn't let someone choose your wedding attire, or rings, and you have chosen your photographer etc based on their style and how well you got on with them.
Consider whether you want a standard legal ceremony with someone you have never met or spoken to, a hybrid ceremony*, or a completely fabulous celebrant led celebration that is written for you and about you.
Our mission? To put the choice firmly back in the couple's hands.
Contact us for a chat... another benefit to having us on your team right there!

Hi, I am Jenny Knight, a creative and modern Independent celebrant. I am an established and industry accolade winning celebrant with over 20 years experience in the wedding industry, and I absolutely love what I do!
(If you would like more details on what a celebrant actually is, have a quick hop over to my recent blog piece that outlines the details.)
It is a huge part of a celebrants role, to get to know our couples, to translate all of the little details and the interactions that we witness into your bespoke and personal ceremony script. We write from scratch, and each wedding is totally different - just as each of our couples is unique too! Are you both festival goers, sports fans, gamers or mad keen on travelling? Perhaps you have completely separate interests, or maybe you enjoy sharing many great moments together cooking or watching films. Whoever you are, I love getting to know you!
My ceremonies are well reputed for being warm, natural and engaging, and I enjoy making sure you feel relaxed and indeed that your guests feel a part of your day, not just spectators. Why not have a look at some of my ceremony albums to see just what I mean, or read some of the fab testimonials here.
I appreciate that sharing lots of details with someone you don't know is possibly a daunting thought, and so before you reach out to me, here are just a few things about me that you might like to know . . . .
I love being immersed in chlorine (I am an ex-competitive swimmer!), I do pilates once a week and I have recently purchased an Oxelo micro scooter to join in with my twin girls on the school run! I love a good BBQ, and celebrating (anything!) outdoors! Walks in the countryside with fresh air and great views fill me with joy, and I love interesting architecture, live music and city breaks.
I am a wife to a great man, and a mum to completely wonderful twin girls. After a day of ceremony writing (and twin wrangling), I love cosying up with a cuppa (and my hubby!) to watch our favourite series on Netflix.
I live right on the Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire borders and so you'll regularly find me working in those counties, but I do travel to neighbouring areas and also cover destination weddings too!
I trained with the Fellowship of Independent Celebrants (FOIC) and am a fully insured member of this organisation too. I have also been an active supplier member of the UK Alliance of Wedding Planners, and have proven track record of operating within their high code of ethics for the industry.
I run a small and friendly forum for celebrants across the South, and am a part of a forum of European Celebrants as well. You can also find me listed in the fabulous Celebrant Directory too!
I would love to hear from you. Let's make your ceremony unique to you, and absolutely unforgettable.
