Who and What is a Celebrant?

A wedding celebrant is a professionally trained and fully insured officiant, with the skills and experience in place to create completely bespoke and personalised ceremonies, where they will get to know your love story in order to create the perfect, most memorable and unique ceremony for you. You will be able to include any symbolic gestures or medieval traditions such as hand fasting, ring warming and unity candles - there really is no limit, only your imagination. Sadly, celebrants in England and Wales cannot legally marry you on your wedding day, the official legal documentation would have to be signed either before or after the wedding day at your local registry office - however, in Scotland, a humanist celebrant IS able to legally marry you there and then, and fingers crossed this transpires into England very soon! A celebrant can conduct your ceremony in your back garden, or on top of a mountain, once again, there are no restrictions when it comes to a celebrant wedding.

We believe celebrants or humanist celebrants, are the most personable, intimate, and emotive way to go when choosing who you want to marry you. They conduct ceremonies like they are art, and you will remember every single word, feeling and joyful tear for the rest of your lives.

My aim throughout your day is to capture you both in the most authentic way possible. A documentary styled approach which results in images that truly translates to how you are as a couple.

I want to capture the natural interactions between you both and your families – whether he is moving a piece of hair from your face, or whether you’re raising a glass with your parents – I want to capture laughter in a way that you can hear the image whenever you see it. I want to capture you and your family in your wedding day bubble that is unique to yourselves and every time you look at your images you’re transported back into that bubble.

I want images that will be timeless in your eyes and that when you show them to future generations you can say “that was us”, and they will see that, even if you don’t look anything like the images anymore…

…they will know it was you.
