Emily Rawlinson Celebrant

"We shortlisted about a dozen and ended up
interviewing about half of those -
Emily stood out by not only
being very friendly and kind but also happy
to guide us through the process
of taking our blank sheet of
paper and turning it into our wedding ceremony."

Why choose me?
​
‘There’s a different point of view waiting for you, if you just look up’ Mary Poppins
I’m a secret rebel at heart…
Not like the one without a cause, but more like Mary Poppins, who challenged the status quo, creating magical situations and leaving behind beautiful memories, a feeling of warmth, connection and love. This is the inspiration behind the ceremonies that I create. I know how important it is for you to have a stand out ceremony. You don't want same-old, same-old. You want an experience that you and your guests will still be talking about when you're celebrating your Golden Wedding Anniversary.
As a professional Independent Celebrant with over ten years experience, I am an expert in making this happen. Each of my ceremonies is unique and designed for you and more importantly, with you. Nothing beats the joy I see on your faces as you and your guests as you're immersed into a ceremony full of happiness, fun and most importantly love.
Nothing can beat seeing the happiness this brings and I’m passionate about making that happen. Each of my ceremonies is unique and designed for you and more importantly, with you; meaning that, at the end of the day, the chalk may have washed away, but the magic is still deep within your heart.
