A fun and relaxed celebration, exactly what we wanted

Debbie provided an excellent service as our wedding celebrant. We met with Debbie on a number of occasions before the wedding to write and develop the wedding script and also discuss and agree our needs. Debbie did an excellent job of taking our suggestions and turning them into a memorable celebration. We asked for a relaxed and humorous event and that is exactly what Debbie provided. The big day went exactly to plan, we couldn't have asked for more and would thoroughly recommend!

Absolutely exceptional, Debbie should have 6 stars on all counts

My daughter got married in an idyllic historic villa in Tuscany in August and we couldn't be more thrilled with our choice of Debbie as celebrant. Having worked as a TV presenter for many decades, we trusted that Debbie wouldn’t be overwhelmed by 200 guests, 11 bridesmaids, 10 groomsmen, 2 dog ringbearers, a live singer, multiple readings and audience participation but her broadcasting experience also gave her an uncanny ability to think on her feet and nip any crisis in the bud, amongst others - the makeup stain on the bridesmaid's dress - sorted, the wedding ring that didn't fit (Debbie lent her own!) Truly the Mary Poppins of celebrants!
Debbie made the ceremony incredibly personal by getting to know the bride and groom so well beforehand, she was a great calming influence on my extrovert daughter and her far more reserved fiancé and wove the details of their whirlwind romance into a ceremony which had us laughing and crying in equal measures. It was a perfect magical day and Debbie had a big part in creating that.

The perfect celebrant from start to finish.

If you’re reading this, enquire with Debbie!

Debbie, thank you for leading our ceremony and being a superstar from start to finish.

We and our guests were so impressed by the amazing story you’d captured and how well you told it at the ceremony. It was like you’ve known us for years!! In reality, your professional approach with a clear and detailed questionnaire, coming to meet and get to know us in-person before the ceremony, and your presentation skills meant that the ceremony was always going to be perfect.

Your warm and professional approach set the tone for a day of celebration which is exactly what we wanted.

You’ve been a star from the very first zoom call, to the preparation and script writing, to the ceremony and a beautiful summary video.

Thank you playing such a big part in our day.

Sam & Emily.

Debbie is such a wonderful person & celebrant.

If you are looking for a celebrant who takes the time to understand you as a couple, shows you so much love and is so considerate towards you, your family and friends, then look no further. Debbie was absolutely fantastic from the very first call we had.

She was such a calming influence amongst all the chaos and we loved getting to know her. She has a real passion for what she does and the pride beams out of her.

We couldn't have asked for more on our Wedding day, her script was so lovely and she captured us perfectly.

Thank you so much for everything Debbie x

Debbie made our day so beautiful and special!

I am glad we chose Debbie for our special day. She was always patient, attentive, and sweet. She was very creative and suggested beautiful and fun ideas for our family members to participate in the ceremony as well! The ceremony was super fun, funny and beautiful! She was sensitive to our wishes, and my 10 year old daughter said 'It was the funnest and the best wedding I ever attended!'. Thank you so much for making our love story and our wedding ceremony so special, Debbie!

Captured our story beautifully

Debbie was incredible. She was able to capture and articulate our story beautifully in the ceremony. She was very proactive, on top of every detail and took away a huge amount of stress for us. During the preparation phase of the ceremony she asked us the right questions to get to know us and had prepared ideas for readings and had excellent suggestions on how to involve important people to us into our ceremony. The script and readings fit our story and unique aspects of our relationship perfectly. Our guests loved the ceremony, and many commented how beautiful it was.

A beautiful and personal service!

From the moment we met her, we realised that Debbie was the celebrant for us. She absolutely loves ‘love’ and loves happy endings – which is, after all, what a wedding is all about. Debbie is naturally curious about people. She was fastidious about, and took time to hear, our respective stories and wove them together in a bespoke and personal narrative picking out the key points (both serious and light-hearted) that mattered to us and that we wanted to share with friends and family. On the day, Debbie delivered it perfectly. Our wedding felt intimate (despite over 60 people being in the room) as well as inclusive of our children and parents and a genuinely joyous occasion. Thank you so much.
