What to Expect

Are we a match?

It's really important you find the right celebrant for this really special occasion so before you commit to anything I like to meet up, in person or by Skype/Facetime, for us to get to know each other better. You can talk to me about your ideas, ask me any questions and get a really good feel for whether I'm the right person to help you craft, plan and conduct your special day.

Let's write the script

This is a wonderful part of the whole process and such a creative opportunity for me to help you tell your story the way you want to. You may know just what you want in terms of music, readings, symbolic gestures and vows or you may need some ideas and guidance. Either way, I'll be here to listen, guide and to capture what makes you the unique couple that you are. I can talk to your key people too, if that's important to you. We'll edit the draft script together until you're happy that it's right. 

Tell me your story...

Once you're happy that I'm the celebrant for you we will confirm in writing. The next step is for me to really get to know you both as a couple - to hear your story, find out how you met and discover what you love about each other.  

It's a huge privilege for me to hear a couple’s story and a second meeting will help me to build up a really clear picture of who you both are as individuals and as a couple.

Dress rehearsal time

You want to know that everything will run smoothly on the big day so a rehearsal is a great opportunity for a walkthrough of the ceremony itself with all of your key people. It helps to get everyone clear about how the day will run, allows us to add any finishing touches to the plans and it's a great way to calm any last minute nerves - make all your mistakes here and you'll be word perfect on the day! (And you don't have to wear your special outfits for this so no spoilers!)

The Ceremony

On the day I will arrive in plenty of time to make sure everything is as you want it. I'll greet your guests and make them feel welcome and then I'll be ready when you are to conduct your ceremony. I'll guide you both through it step by step so you can both just enjoy the moment.

​

A few days later, I will send you a beautifully printed presentation script as a memento of the day for you both to keep.
