Come on in, make yourself at home, put your feet up, and have a good old nosy around.
Well, it’s what I would do, anyway!
I’m a Humanist celebrant who knows that cookie-cutter ceremonies are boring
(hello, Dorothy and the team at the Registrars).
If you want a ceremony that feels like you (and not your elderly Aunt’s third wedding;
no offence Aunt Mabel), you’re in the right place.
I’m here to make your wedding ceremony unique to you and all about your couple story – the quirks, the inside jokes, and yes, even the laugh out loud first-date moments.
I’m here to bring the laughs, the tears (the good kind), and the “wow, that was so them” vibes.
Let’s ditch the snooze-fest and create something completely unforgettable.
Whether you’re saying “I do” somewhere in Newcastle, rocking a venue in Northumberland, or bringing the vibes anywhere else in the North East or beyond, I’ll help you create a ceremony that’s heartfelt, hilarious, and 100% authentic.
No boring bits. Guaranteed.
When it comes to your wedding, the word ‘template’ isn’t in my vocabulary.
Every ceremony I create is a one-off masterpiece, crafted around your story – the quirks, the laughs, the “remember when” moments that make you you.
I’ll work with you to make sure it’s totally unique and packed with all the feels – from heartfelt vows to the kind of banter that has your guests in stitches (or tears, or both).
The result is a ceremony so unforgettable, your guests will still be talking about it when you’re celebrating your 10th anniversary.
No clichés, no cringey filler, just a brilliant, one-of-a-kind experience that’s all about you.
