What is a Celebrant?
- A Celebrant is a person who performs ceremonies marking some of life’s biggest milestones like births, weddings, and funerals. A Celebrant can conduct ceremonies independently from any beliefs but will happily incorporate religious or spiritual elements into the ceremony. You can choose where you would like the ceremony to be without restrictions. As a Celebrant I can perform traditional or contemporary ceremonies that are heartfelt, bespoke and meaningful crafting your story of love and life’s events.
Where are you based?
- I am based in Windsor and so cover Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Surrey as my local area. However, I’m very happy to travel – please just contact me to discuss
Can we include religious elements in our ceremony?
- Absolutely, this is your ceremony, I am completely independent so happy to reflect whatever beliefs (or not) you would like included.
I don’t want a formal ceremony, is that OK?
- Yes! We will work the ceremony to be just the way you want it to be – this is your day.
Can I include readings and poems in my ceremony?
- Yes. You can include as many readings as you wish – whether religious or non-religious, silly or sentimental. You can even invite a guest to read one out for you, or to write something personal.
Can I include music and/or hymns?
- You can include as many songs, music or hymns you like, and can choose to play these either on a PA System or have live musicians, it’s up to you!
