Weddings/Renewal of Vows/Naming Ceremonies I can create a wonderful, memorable ceremony which will reflect your wishes.

YOUR Ceremony YOUR Style... 💍💕🏠
Weddings/Renewal of Vows/Naming Ceremonies in ANY location, and in your own STYLE ... cherished memories that will last for years to come! Wherever you’d like to get married, I can be there too, whether you choose an elegant hotel, a grand manor house, a rustic barn, a charming village hall, a cosy restaurant, a beloved family home, a picturesque marquee, a private

garden, by a tranquil lakeside, or amidst the natural beauty of a paddock or woodland. A personalised Celebrant-led ceremony can take place in any location, even if it's not a licensed wedding venue. Maybe you fancy a twilight wedding beneath the starry night or an intimate ceremony just for the two of you at your favorite romantic spot? Complete flexibility, with no constraints on timing, format, style, content, or location. I'm a member of the Association of Independent Celebrants (AOIC), and feel passionate about delivering unique ceremonies, ensuring that your special day is nothing short of amazing. Your ceremony is a truly defining moment in your life, and every story deserves a special and meaningful celebration. I’ve worked as a Registrar for over 15 years in Yorkshire & Nottinghamshire, officiating hundreds of wedding ceremonies in a variety of venues at wonderful indoor and outdoor locations, so I fully understand the need for more creativity, romance and genuine sincerity within a wedding ceremony. A celebrant-led ceremony is all about YOU as a couple, sharing a ceremony in ANY location, and in your own STYLE. Fortunately, I have the experience to guide you through the whole process and can also provide help in arranging your legal marriage. Your wedding day should begin with a perfect ceremony and I’d love to help you make that happen. Even the simplest weddings cost a small fortune, but the photographs last a lifetime, so it’s imperative that the bridal party look their very best. I don’t just deliver a ceremony, I often combine my ‘other role’ as an image consultant to style a bridal party with appropriate colour schemes and provide guidance how to pose for those all-important wedding photos. It’s always such an honour to be asked to participate in the most memorable parts of people’s lives, so you can rest assured that I pay attention to the small details to help such a special day run smoothly. I will be with you every step of the way, creating YOUR Ceremony YOUR Style...

I genuinely LOVE being part of a couple’s special day and would be delighted to arrange wedding/renewal of vows/naming ceremonies at venues/locations in nearby Nottinghamshire/Yorkshire/ Lincolnshire/Derbyshire and also further afield. I'm ready to add a touch of style to your wedding ceremony, and I’d love to be part of your special day!

🏰 Arriving early at a venue… My role as a Celebrant goes way beyond just delivering the ceremony. I'm dedicated to make sure your special day is celebrated without a hitch. That means I arrive early at your venue to team up with other pros like the photographers, musicians, etc. Team work makes the dream work! 💪

Attention to detail is the secret to ensure everything goes just as planned. 🕵️‍♂️ And when the timing of those special moments is perfect, this really does make the whole day extra special for you and your guests. 🎉

I'm fully committed to ensure YOUR special day is absolutely amazing and dedicate my time to just ONE wedding a day! 🌟💕💍

🌟✨ Reviving a Timeless Wedding Tradition! ✨🌟 Did you know that a sixpence in the bride's shoe is a long-forgotten tradition? A sixpence is meant to bring good luck and prosperity to newlyweds. 💕 This charming custom dates back to the Victorian era, symbolising fortune and happiness for the bride and groom.

I’m thrilled to share that I have a generous supply of vintage sixpences (as a child I was encouraged to collect coins!!) and it brings me immense joy to gift one to every bride I meet during the ceremony rehearsal. 💍✨Every effort is made to ensure the sixpence is date-related i.e. 2024 brides receive a 1954 sixpence and my 1955 collection is ready for the 2025 brides!
It’s my little way of keeping this beautiful tradition alive and spreading good fortune.
Here’s to love, luck, and happily ever afters! 🥂💖

Don’t wait until you’ve found your dream venue - securing your chosen ceremony date is important as I commit to just ONE wedding per day. 💍💕
Choosing a Celebrant means you really can tie the knot anywhere - not just at a licensed wedding venue. Whether it be held within a beautiful hotel, grand manor house, rustic barn, local village hall, restaurant, family home, marquee, private garden, lakeside, or surrounded by nature in a paddock or woodland setting. Perhaps you’d prefer a twilight wedding late into the night, or a couples only wedding at your favourite romantic location?
I’ve delivered hundreds of wedding ceremonies in a variety of venues at wonderful indoor and outdoor locations, so if you’d like to know pros & cons of a particular venue you're considering, I’d be happy to offer my advice so you can make a sensible decision.

🌟 Just look at how loved-up Charlotte & Jordan are while bridesmaid, Megan, delivers a reading at their ceremony! 💖 🌟🪴
Inviting a guest to deliver a reading adds a sense of significance and can create unforgettable moments that you’ll cherish forever. 💕💍
TIP: A guest would need to be seated near the aisle and confident to step to the front to deliver their reading when invited to do so during the ceremony.
Indoor ceremonies, guests are advised to read from cards and not read from a mobile phone - the glow of a phone can sometimes spoil the photographs.

Planning a wedding can take months, even years! You plan every detail, from outfits to the venue, table decor, entertainment, and the cake. But have you thought about the actual ceremony itself? The ceremony is the whole reason why the day is occurring in the first place!

I'd love to show you how I can create a bespoke ceremony just for you, making it the most special part of your day, and a true reflection of you as a couple. It won’t be like anyone else’s ceremony!

I've got plenty of ideas to create an extra-ordinary wedding ceremony! Let's make it uniquely yours! 💍✨

Today is St Swithin’s Day! So WHATEVER the weather on July 15 it will continue for the next 40 days - so folklore states. It's raining today & Mother Nature ☔️🌧️can’t be controlled but don’t despair with drops of rain when you “tie the knot” … it’s considered good luck because a wet knot is harder to untie!
Be prepared: ☔️Brollies make great photo props, but avoid colourful or black brollies as they cast shadows on your face! Big white brollies look fab, or clear birdcage styles are great for photos.

🌴✨ Coconuts & Teapot at a wedding ceremony... curious why? ✨🌴
Blending traditional and Sri Lankan rituals, creating a magical ceremony at The Old Vicarage at Elkesley
By a serene stream, preparing for the bride and groom's hands to be intertwined with a blessed thread, to symbolise their union. Water pouring over linked hands, represents their everlasting love—just like water, their love will flow forever!
To conclude, breaking coconuts signifies new beginnings. 🌰💕
A lavender theme, symbolising love and devotion, adding a personal touch to the ceremony table with freshly cut lavender from my own garden. 🌿💜

There's something truly enchanting about combining cultures, and only a Celebrant can make this magic happen! 🌟
If you'd like a ceremony combining different cultures, please do get in touch.

✨ Attention to detail...Preparations for a dreamy, blue-themed wedding! 💙✨ The tradition of 'something blue' symbolises love, fidelity, and trust. Some of the most popular blue shades for weddings include French blue, cornflower, dusty blue, and periwinkle.
🌸 One special touch: a beautifully calligraphy-style certificate on parchment paper, presented as a scroll in a keepsake box that harmonises with the colour scheme and adorned with fresh flowers provided on the day by the wedding florist The Secret Garden Belper
💖 These keepsake boxes are presented to couples at the end of the ceremony, containing copies of their love story, personalised vows, and unique symbolic elements from the ceremony. It's a treasure trove of memories, perfect for reminiscing about their special day.
👗 I also ensure my attire complements the ceremony's look—my blue floral dress is ideal for a blue-themed summer wedding! When I stand at the top of the aisle, it's essential to consider what I wear. After all, I might appear on some of those cherished photos!

Feedback received from Mia & Manny:

International Kissing Day!💋A kiss is a timeless symbol of love and affection which transcends language barriers and communicates emotions effortlessly. From a simple kiss on the forehead that conveys respect to a warm kiss on the cheeks that expresses affection, each gesture carries a unique and heartfelt message.

"You may kiss the bride" is a phrase we hear at the end of many wedding ceremonies, but where did the phrase originate and why was it necessary?
It’s thought that in Roman times, the bride and groom would not have kissed each other until the time of their wedding. Kissing after the vows became symbolic because marriages were seen as contracts and in Roman times kissing was a legal bond that sealed all contracts. So, the couple would kiss to seal the marriage vows and contract ❤️

🎶 Live classical music brings a touch of elegance and romance to your wedding ceremony. I've had the pleasure of hearing modern pop songs beautifully transformed by professional musicians at many weddings! 💍

It was a pleasure to meet Ruth Lee of Such a joy to watch her play!

While timeless classics and love songs are always a hit, consider choosing music that holds special meaning in your relationship. It doesn't have to be traditional 'wedding music'—make it about YOU.

Such a privilege to deliver a personalised ceremony for Mia & Manny, combining a mixture of traditional and Sri Lankan 🇱🇰cultures, but also capture some dreamy precious moments.💕

🌹✨ Surrounded by fragrant roses at the most beautiful location! A private rose garden will be the venue for this couple's forthcoming wedding ceremony - a day which will be filled with love and the sweet scent of blooms, creating a magical atmosphere with unique symbolic elements.💕

The excitement is building with a pre-ceremony rehearsal, where I revealed the content of my ceremony script and the bride received her vintage sixpence 💍💐 (my special gift to every bride-to-be) to slip inside her shoe on the big day. Can't wait for this enchanting celebration!

Today's outdoor wedding ceremony is lavender-themed! 💜 Lavender is such a versatile pretty, delicate, summer flower… a symbol of love and devotion, making this a perfect flower to incorporate within wedding décor.

I’m also adding a personal touch to today’s wedding - freshly cut lavender from my own garden will feature on the ceremony table. 🪴

Preparing for a Lavender-themed wedding ceremony to be held at The Old Vicarage at Elkesley💍🪴💜
Taking pride in preparing a beautiful calligraphy-styled certificate elegantly printed on parchment paper, presented as a scroll in a commemorative keepsake box co-ordinating with the lavender colour scheme and adorned with sprigs of lavender freshly cut from my own garden🪴

Lavender symbolises love, devotion, and romance. It signifies the deep, enduring connection between two people. Sprigs of lavender enhance the ceremony's emotional and aesthetic appeal, emphasising these beautiful qualities. 💜

The cherished box will be presented to the couple at the close of ceremony and will also contain copies of their love story; personalised vows; and unique symbolic elements used during the ceremony.
This symbolises the start of their new journey together. It will be a treasure trove of memories, allowing them to reflect on their love and the incredible moments shared on their wedding day. 💕

When delivering the ceremony my own attire is also chosen with the ceremony's overall look and style in mind (my lavender dress is a perfect match!), making sure I complement the day beautifully. When I stand at the top of the aisle, it's essential to consider what I wear. After all, I might appear on some of those cherished photos!

Love this! ❤️ Sabine & Craig celebrate their wedding anniversary 💍 this week and here's a reminder of Sabine's feedback following her wedding day at Hazel Gap Barn:
"...Imagine my surprise when I learnt the news that out of pure coincidence, the celebrant to my dream wedding was my beautiful bridal dress shop owner’s mum. I knew I would be looked after from that point because as the saying goes, like mother like daughter and I wasn’t wrong. Both such wonderful human beings and so talented in what they both do. I was put at ease by Sue and her absolutely calming nature. I was a bag of nerves but Sue helped every way to ensure I was calm and ready to walk down that aisle for the most important day of my life. During the ceremony her calmness and professionalism shone through just the same, like it was a breeze for her and so natural. The most memorable part of my wedding was the ceremony and I want to thank Sue for being a big part of making it that extra bit special..."
