Your very special day, and it may be a cosy one in a garden, or an extravagant one that has taken a lot of planning. Whatever the style, let me help you keep the ceremony running smoothly and become a day – or night – to cherish for you and your guests!
Would you like it short and simple, or do you want help with adding other elements such as readings, music, or perhaps something even more theatrical? My background in the arts provides me with contacts including actors, dancers, singers and musicians as well as those on the creative side (directors, lighting, costume and set designers) if you want to include theatrical elements in your ceremony. Do you need help finding a florist, a photographer, a make-up artist? Let’s have a chat and see what we can do.
I am more than happy to conduct LGBTQ ceremonies.
