Wedding Celebrants
Carolyn was incredible from the get go. We needed an emergency celebrant and she stepped up, showed kindness and care. She asked great questions, made us feel at ease and so excited. She was brilliant on the day and made the whole experience perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better celebrant and we are so grateful we found her. More...

Carolyn was amazing from the first phone call. She understood what we wanted and was able to create such a beautiful ceremony in such a short time. She was so understanding of all of our needs and made the day so incredibly special. So many of our guests compliments on how great she was with the words she chose to the banter during the ceremony it was everything we could have ever asked for. Thank you Carolyn for being such a great part of our day we couldn't have done it without you. More...

Dear Josie Thankyou so much, I absolutely loved being with you ,Toby, your families and friends and delivering the wedding ceremony you deserved. It was an absolute pleasure, such a special time, an honour and I'm so pleased I could do your love story justice. You made it easy for me to create your ceremony so thankyou for that and choosing me for your incredible day.
What do you love most about your job?
I love how my job gives me the privilege of being with families and their friends at amazing times in their lives. I love weddings, their drama, excitement and suspense of watching a couple say their vows. It is an honour for me to be with you at your wedding with your friends and family. For me it is a dream come true and the best job in the world.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was inspired to change careers by the positive feedback I received after I had organised my mum's funeral in January 2023. I discovered the role of a celebrant and I am now a Master Celebrant, trained to conduct weddings, naming and living funerals. I like the independence of self-employment and the flexibility it gives me to meet the needs of couples and my own. I love weddings, so it's the perfect job for me.
Why should our clients choose you?
What's not to like!? Choose me if you want a laugh, tell YOUR story, be different and have a fantastic wedding ceremony.
If you want someone with a vibrant, outgoing personality, someone who likes a laugh and can involve humour in the ceremony, look no further!
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes, I can provide consultations and meetings online to fit in with you. I am available by phone and by Zoom, Teams and Google Meet.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I ensure that I am up to date with my Covid jabs and that I regularly use hand sanitiser. If couples wish me to wear a mask when we meet I am happy to do so.
I prefer to meet in an area which is ventilated.
