I am Arabella Wilde, also known as A Wilde Celebrant, and I'm an independent wedding celebrant based in Deal, Kent (although I'm more than happy to travel to wherever you might need me!). I am eloquent and creative, love to raise a smile and a laugh and can write a deeply heartfelt ceremony because I really do take the time to get to know my couples. Together we can create a really special ceremony that captures everything about your story, often including elements that will bring a laugh and a tear to the loved ones who are watching. I am dedicated and passionate about my work and want the day to be perfect for you.

Services Offered

I offer a full-service package. This will begin with a discovery call that I generally do as a video chat. This is the moment we first meet and gives you an opportunity to decide if I am the right person for you. There is no obligation with this call, I know how important it is to have a celebrant you feel a connection with, and you should speak with as many potential celebrants as you need. If you decide I am the right match for you, I'll send over a contract which I ask you to sign and return with a 30% deposit, this locks the date in for you. I will then make a date to meet you in person, this is a chance for us to get to know one another and to talk about your vision for the day, and for you to ask me any questions you might have. Approximately 6 months before the day, I will send you a couples questionnaire which will form the base of my script. Once you send them back to me I will begin writing and will send over the skeleton script as a starting point from us to work from. From this point on we can work together making any changes and adjustments, you might want to add someone to read or include a symbolic ritual - I am happy to make changes right up until two weeks before the ceremony. I am also available to help you if you'd like to write your own vows and if you'd like a rehearsal the week before, I can do that with you too (for an additional charge). I can also help with advice on music, readings and poems and we can discuss symbolic rituals. This is your day, so it's very important we get everything exactly as you want it.
