Weddings- celebrating love

weddings & vow renewals


My Vow to you


I will learn your unique love story and discover the wedding ceremony that you want — one that reflects your personality and vibe. I’ll craft a beautiful, personal script just for you, gently weaving together your story, values, and the moments that matter most.

I would love to stop time with all of your favourite people, to share a moment of love and promise,  one that you will all cherish forever.

I will guide you both through writing vows,  including unity rituals and any other  element you wish to have.

On the day itself I will work closely with the other suppliers and your significant people to ensure  a smooth and stress free ceremony.

As a couple, you are one of a kind,  so should your wedding day be.  I would love the honour of crafting your ceremony that follows all the expected elements of a wedding but that celebrates everything that you are.

2 love hearts carved in the sand, this represents 2 hearts coming together as one.

the legal bit

In England you will need to arrange a registration, which is called a statutory ceremony, at your local registrars office. 

All that is required for the legal marriage certificate is for you both to say the declaratory words and sign in front of two adult witnesses. 

This 'admin' part of the marriage can be done at anytime and at minimal cost. 

The part that I conduct is the 'wedding', a bespoke ceremony written just for you both. I do include a certificate signing in the ceremony should you wish to use that as a photo opportunity.

Some of my couples like to let their loved ones know that they have already done the legal bit, but the majority don't feel the need to explain this.

Contact your local council for more detailed information.

A perfect way to blend a couple or family as one, this ceremony can include as many people as you like as each person pours their own colour into the main vessel which can be kept and never separated, representing the love of the couple.

A unity candle ritual set up, 2 blue candles with a larger center candle,

Sand Ceremony

One of the most common rituals and can also be done with multiple candles, the light and love of each flame is then used to light the centre unity candle to symbolise the merging of two lives. 

A jumping the broom ritual, broom with ribbon and lace to decorate.

After the ceremony the happy couple hold hands and jump the broom symbolising sweeping away of the old and the welcoming of the new. 

A hand fasting ritual. Ribbons to tie in the ceremony.

The roots of this tradition are ancient as it was used as a betrothal with the couple promising themselves to each other for a year and a day, when they could then decide to marry or part. Also where the term 'tying the knot' comes from, hand fasting is another lovely way of bringing extra cords/ribbons into the ceremony representing 2 or more people.
