Frequently asked questions answered!

What about extras?

Ceremony planning can sometimes leave you feeling out of control with add-ons and extra costs that you never expected. I will provide you with a personalised quote based on a no-obligation chat about your ceremony, and I will always be clear about anything that may be an additional cost.

Can you legally marry us?

Currently, I can't do this, but that doesn't effect your Wedding Celebration Day.

Many couples now choose to complete the legal marriage ceremony on a different day during a more intimate ceremony with just their witnesses. Statutory 'two by two' ceremonies (as they are known!) are offered by local councils and slightly differ depending where you live. If you can't find details about them on your local council website, do give them a call and ask them to tell you about them. They tend to take place at the register office during the week. It is always nice to follow this with a champagne lunch!

How are you different to a registrar?

As a celebrant, I am not restricted by marriage laws, so I can conduct your ceremony at whatever time and wherever you like. I will take the time to get to know you so you can be sure that you ceremony has been written only for you. We can include any content you choose, for example a toast, religious blessings or a cocktail ceremony (!) which would not be possible in the statutory ceremony.

You know that it will be me conducted your wedding celebrations on the day, whereas there is no guarantee which registrar is on duty on the day of your wedding.

I only conduct one ceremony a day, so if we need to start later for any reason, then that's absolutely fine.
