Good question! You're not the only one wondering.
In short? By choosing a celebrant, you’re choosing freedom.
Freedom to have a ceremony that actually feels like you - not a script you’ve heard a hundred times before. As an independent celebrant, I’m not tied to any religious or government organisation, which means there are no rules, no restrictions, and no “you have to say this bit” energy.
Just connection, celebration, and a ceremony that feels awesome.
My services include:
Wedding and Commitment Ceremonies
Vow Renewals
Wing-Woman Services
Naming and Gender-Affirming Ceremonies
.…that your wedding ceremony can be so much more than just the legal
bit before the canapés.
When you work with a registrar, you’re tied to a fixed structure and
script. But with a celebrant - especially a fabulous, Queer, creative one like me - there’s room to make it personal, meaningful, and genuinely unforgettable.
Every ceremony I write is bespoke. Whether you want to keep things elegant and timeless, bring in the drama, or include something totally unexpected, I’ll guide you through what’s possible.
Here’s a little of what we can play with:
Your entrance, your way
You both get a moment. Walk in together, or separately, or with your loved ones. Maybe to a string quartet, your favourite film score, or something with just a touch of drama (live saxophone, anyone?). It can be grand, understated, joyful, emotional - or all of the above.
Shine a light on your people
I can introduce your wedding party with warmth and style - adding personal touches, anecdotes, or quiet nods to chosen family who mean the world to you.
Elevate the details
Want a traditional ring exchange, but with a twist? Include a meaningful ritual like handfasting, ring warming or candle lighting? You can honour your heritage or faith, while blending in modern touches.
Rituals and moments that matter
Whether it’s a reading by someone special, a private vow exchange before the ceremony, or a shared moment of reflection for those not present -there’s space for it all.
The Exit – Sealed with a Smooch (or a Strut)
Your ceremony doesn’t end with the vows - it ends with a moment.
That first kiss, a confetti storm, a cheer, maybe even a glitter cannon. Whether you want classic romance or pure drama, I’ll help you plan an exit that feels effortless, celebratory, and grid-worthy.
