I am a Celebrant/Solemniser who creates inclusive legal weddings, funerals & milestone ceremonies.
(1)

I am a registered Solemniser and Celebrant with Entheos and I provide inclusive legal weddings, funerals, baby welcoming and milestone ceremonies. Entheos are authentically inclusive and fit with my values and what I want to provide in the world of ceremony. People can include whatever they wish in their ceremony, whether they follow a particular faith path or not. It’s such a privilege to be part

of some of the biggest events to happen in people’s lives. I want to take the stress out of planning a ceremony and provide something that’s unique, personalised and truly memorable. I’m based in Cork, but I’m available to carry out ceremonies nationwide.

Throwback to Aishling and Alan's stunning outdoor wedding this summer, which had lots of laughs. Thanks for sharing the professional photos with me from .ie

As well as wedding's and baby naming ceremonies, I also carry out funerals/celebration of life services. Here's a lovely testimonial I received from a recent funeral. It was for someone I knew, who had asked would I do it before she passed. As tough as it was, it was an honour to be able to do it for her and her family.
Full testimonial below.

"We cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and guidance Orla provided during our Mam’s celebration of life service. From the moment we asked her, it was clear that she genuinely understood our family and had a deep appreciation for our Mam’s spirit.
Despite this being her first celebration of life service and the added personal connection of knowing our family many years, Orla approached the occasion with a level of professionalism and calm that made everything feel seamless. Her heartfelt words truly captured our Mam’s essence, and you would never know it was her first time. She made the entire experience feel personal and meaningful, which was exactly what we needed.
Orla was not only respectful and trustworthy but also incredibly patient with us as we navigated our emotions during this difficult time. Her attentiveness to our needs was next level; she ensured that every detail was taken care of, allowing us to focus on honouring our Mam’s life.
Thank you Orla for your compassion and dedication. You made a challenging day so much more bearable, and we will always remember the warmth and love you brought to our celebration of life service. Highly recommended."

"She was professional and planned everything very well, so that the day went very smoothly"
One of the most important things for me on your wedding day is that you don't have to think about anything and can be confident that I have everything in hand. That's why spending the time with you beforehand, to go through all of the details of the ceremony is important to me. It's so lovely to get this feedback from Clare after her outside cermeony in the sunshine at the beautiful back in May.

01/09/2024

It will be my first time having a cermeony at the gorgeous next summer to celebrate the intimate wedding of A&B. I'm really looking forward to it.

"She managed to capture perfectly the story of who we are both as people and as a couple". Such amazing feedback from Marianne and Dan who I married this July at their home in Dublin and . Making sure that your ceremony reflects who you are as individuals and a couple is really important to me. I loved working with this couple, who did have some atypical ideas and I loved ensuring they're had exactly the type of ceremony they wanted, their way.

Lovely review from a recent baby naming ceremony. It's so lovely to be part of a family's special day, when they celebrate a new baby joining their family.

Autumn is my favourite time of year. I love the cold and sunny days and we're getting into a different vibe for the Autumn/Winter weddings. Looking forward to the gorgeous venues I get to visit in the coming months, especially a very special wedding next weekend, where I'll be attending the wedding afterwards 😁 @themaritimehotel @kinnittycastleireland @kilshanehouse @actonshotelkinsale @sneemhotel @fernhill.house #celebrant #solemniser #solemnisercork #entheosireland #entheoscelebrant #weddingcelebrant #weddingscork #weddingskerry #weddingsoffaly #weddingstipperary #orlamccarthycelebrant @entheos.ie @wedfest.ie @mybigday.ie
