Your ceremony. Your way.

Your ceremony isn’t just a formality - it’s the heart of your day.

I’m a former registrar, and now an independent wedding celebrant based in South Wales, creating thoughtful, personality-filled ceremonies that reflect who you are and what matters most to you. Each one is written entirely around your story and delivered with warmth, calm guidance, and careful attention to detail.

The result? A ceremony you and your guests will remember just as much as the celebration that follows.

Sounds like a bit of you?

You can trust me…

With 5 years’ experience as a registrar, I’ve had the privilege of conducting hundreds of ceremonies.

Alongside this experience, I have completed professional celebrant training with The Academy of Modern Celebrancy and I continue to access ongoing support, training, and resources through the Academy, helping me provide every couple with a high-quality, personalised service.

I am also a member of the Association of Independent Celebrants, which provides professional support, continuing professional development, and my celebrant insurance.

This means you can feel confident you’re working with a celebrant who is trained, experienced, and committed to delivering a ceremony that’s uniquely yours.
