Unforgettable ceremonies
Kick your day off in style with a personalised and meaningful wedding ceremony! If you are a couple who would love your guests to experience something unforgettable then we will be a great fit for one another.
Together, we’ll create a ceremony bursting with heartfelt words and love which will have your guests laughing, crying happy tears, applauding and cheering you on. Gone are the days waiting for the formalities to be over before the fun begins.
Your wedding ceremony should be all about you! Your story, your personality and your humour are woven through the script and it will be one of a kind.
It will be everyone’s favourite part of the day. As so much love and care is poured into every ceremony, how can it not be? It will start the day as you mean to go on.
Make it personal
If you want to have some of the more traditional elements of a wedding - you can. Tradition with a twist? Great! Let's make it yours. Combining those classic elements alongside the personal touches will allow you something completely bespoke.
And if you are feeling adventurous, we can explore unconventional options to give your ceremony some extra pizazz!
You can involve everyone with a sing-along, entertain your guests with a game of couples bingo or ask them to bestow their wishes, hopes and blessings for your marriage in a ring blessing ceremony. You can incorporate some more traditional rituals - handfasting, a wine box or quaich ceremony.
Invite your family and friends to play an active role in the proceedings. Give them a role like delivering a reading or song. The possibilities are endless and you have the freedom to create something truly unique!
Creating your ceremony
You'll be guided through the process in our planning meetings and we'll set up a WhatsApp group to keep in touch in the run-up to your day. You will be given access to vow writing guidance if you'd like to create your own or I can write them for you. You'll be asked to complete a couples bio which will help me write your ceremony.
When your wedding day is over not only will you have the photographs, you’ll have a beautifully personalised script to bring back all of the feelings of your special day.
What I am not - I am not a registrar. As of yet, a celebrant in England and Wales cannot deliver a legally binding ceremony. Change is coming but it’s taking its time. I have written a blog on how to take care of statutory marriage registration and you can find it here. If you have any further questions, please do contact me.

The care and attention to detail that she brings alongside her many creative and fun ideas made for the best experience, and we both agree that the ceremony started the wedding day off in the best possible way.”

After our ceremony we had so many people compliment Sam. We would genuinely urge you to book Sam over anybody else. She’s fantastic. Don’t go anywhere else!”

“From the moment I messaged Sam, I knew she was the celebrant for us. She was always so calm and caring. We trusted her so much. Sam responded quickly to any messages and showed genuine excitement for our day, always offering advice and support to make our vision a reality. The ceremony script had us both in tears and she captured our story, and us a couple, like she had known us forever. It was just perfect.”
Kim and Mark

“Wow, wow, wow! I took your advice and saved the reveal of our wedding ceremony to share together yesterday evening! We were both quite emotional when we read it and I’ve read it back this morning and it is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for capturing our story down to the last details. It’s really lovely. I will need waterproof mascara on the day! It’s just so us!”
Georga and James
At home on the farm December 2024
"We had the absolute pleasure of having Sam as our celebrant for our New Year’s Eve wedding and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience. She took the time to create a beautifully personalised ceremony that truly reflected who we are, weaving in little touches and stories that made it feel uniquely ours. Her professionalism and attention to detail were incredible, but what really stood out was her ability to bring joy, humour, and heart to every moment."
Jade and Ben

“We couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant for our wedding day! From the very beginning, Sam made the entire process feel personal, meaningful, and effortless. Our ceremony was warm, heartfelt, and perfectly us. So many of our guests commented on how lovely, unique and touching it was. Professional, organised, and incredibly kind — we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a truly memorable ceremony. Thank you for making our day so special!”
Joe and Lauren

You knew exactly the vibe we were looking for from our ceremony and we love all the personal touches you added!"
Charlie and Conor
Ivy Lodge August 2025
"We could not have been happier with Sam as our celebrant. We clicked instantly over our initial zoom calls, had the pleasure of meeting at our venue a few weeks before the wedding, and when it came to the actual day - we felt so at home with Sam leading our ceremony. She wrote the most beautiful, perfect script - the perfect mix of serious and funny - aligning with our vision. Thank you so much Sam, you were perfect!"
Ash and Jenny
Cripp's Barn September 2025
"Sam was the most perfect celebrant we could have asked for! We always knew we wanted a ceremony with personality, to be funny and to highlight our personalities as a couple and Sam was able to deliver that in such a warm and generous way! Sam got to know us and our journey as a couple, and was available if we had any questions. She was extremely accommodating and understood our needs and what we wanted out of the ceremony. Our guests loved the ceremony and how funny and joyous the ceremony it was. It truly reflected us as a couple."
“Sam is fantastic! One of my couples worked with her to create their perfect ceremony and it was so beautiful.”
