Looking for the most delightful ceremony your guests have ever seen? Your Three Days wedding ceremonies led by experienced Humanist Wedding Celebrant Hannah Wroe Gill in Halifax, Leeds, Wakefield, Bradford and North Yorkshire (York, Harrogate, Dales).

YOUR LOVED ONES' WORDS INCLUDED AS STANDARD. 500+ 5 star reviews. Est. 2010.

'Choosing you was the best decision we made. A friend messaged afterwards saying ours was the ceremony every couple wants to have. So much of that was your doing: your beautiful writing, coordination and delivery. A wedding beyond our wildest dreams.' Jess + Craig

So many Celebrants and too little time? Here are 3 reasons why I’d love a place on your shortlist: the unique way I write, the calibre of my reviews and my emotional return on your investment. Typically, personalised ceremonies use information collected by interview. In contrast, I’d write using answers to bespoke individual and joint questions you’ve both had time and space to think about, privately and together. I also include loved ones’ words in every script which, as far as I know, no other Celebrant does. It’s all part of a genuinely original, fun and flexible multi-phase creative process I’ve been honing over the last decade and more. If we get to chat on the phone, which I hope we do, I’ll offer to read some of my 'Story so far' sections or vow and ring exchanges so you can hear and feel the difference my particular approach makes. I love what I do.

‘The creative phase was such a lovely period of our engagement. It’s impossible to describe how perfectly Hannah met our needs - experience shows in everything she says and does. Safe to say she’s even had an impact on our marriage.’ Megan + John

Have you had chance to explore any of my 500+ testimonials yet? As well as the 50 reviews on this profile (apologies for the algorithm’s quirky order), there are 350+ quotes revolving on my site page tops as well as a link to my 2010-2020 Anniversary Collection and its 12 themed chapters. My Instagram has a quote a picture too, bringing my 14+ years' experience up to date with my most recent weddings. All these reviews give the best sense of the profound effect my way of working can have: the lengths I go to for my couples, the quality of my writing, my intuitive attention to detail and vibrant performance style. Yet whilst I’m very proud of every one, I’m never, ever complacent. After nearly 400 ceremonies, I've a wealth of passion, experience and expertise which can prove invaluable, but you’re only as good as your next one in my view.

‘Our heads are still spinning: just far and away the best day of our lives and you were a massive part of that. No amount of thanks is enough - the time, care and attention you put in was mind-boggling.’ Caro + Karen

I’ll tell you now, some Celebrants charge less than I do (and others more) - but consider which part of your wonderful, wonderful day is going to mean the most to you both. I don’t just mean on your first anniversary or fifth, but for the rest of your lives. If we do this right, it’s going to be the half hour or so when we told your story in a truly life-affirming ceremony, joyful, thought-provoking and wholly authentic; when the hairs stood up on the back of people's necks; when they laughed and cried and reached for their partner's hand, nobody ready for it all to end quite yet. The Celebrant market may be crowded, but that doesn’t mean we all deliver the same result on the day. There isn’t another offering the same combination of skills, experience, creativity, choice and back catalogue I do. My aim has always been to offer exceptional value for money.

‘Guests came up to us afterwards crying, telling us it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. The emotion captured in the room and between the two of us will stay with us until we take our last breath.’ Louise + Matt

Just amazing

Hannah, we were lucky enough to have been recommended you by our wedding venue after explaining that we were searching for a non-religious, intimate ceremony. We wanted it to be different and about us, after only ever going to traditional weddings in a place of worship.
We knew that we would have to do some ‘work’, however you made it enjoyable and exciting so it didn’t feel like work at all. The questions you asked were so in depth and captured so much. It was great thinking of past and present happy moments in our lives and expressing our feelings in response to them. It was the main core of preparing for the big day and we thoroughly enjoyed it. You literally covered everything.
The time and dedication you put into us both is just incomparable: how you helped when we were a little confused with any of the questions and how comfortable you made us feel. Nothing was ever too much.

Hannah you were just amazing, exceeding all expectations. We were so lucky to have you on our special day. You ensured things ran smoothly, not just the ceremony but the whole build up and arrival of the guests. We don’t actually know what we would have done without you. You were so warm and welcoming and very free flowing when we needed you to be with Tilly, yet so professional. We’re just so grateful.

We have had so many compliments from family and friends on how amazing the ceremony was and that they’ve never been to one like it. There was not one dry eye in the barn! A huge thank you also for how you helped with seating our parents on the front rows. Your advice was just perfect and we’re really thankful how it worked out.
We wish that we could do it again!! And we miss you in a funny way. You’re just such a lovely, kind and clever lady and you’re absolutely amazing at what you do. We will always recommend you.
Sending lots of love to you and your family and thank you so much for everything. You made our day so special and we will be forever grateful.

Hannah made our wedding day incredible!

Hannah was one of the Humanist celebrants recommended by our wedding planner. We ended up doing weeks of research and after this we knew Hannah was offering the best service and had a personality we knew we’d get along with.

From the moment we met she put our nerves at ease almost immediately. It was evident she takes this job seriously but thoroughly enjoys the process of getting to know a couple's stories and history.

It is a very personal way of getting married, with a tailored ceremony where you can decide what you do and don't want included. Hannah asked us questions during the few months before we got married, then compiled a draft that we could edit. You also get to ‘act’ out the ceremony in advance, which makes the wedding day that much easier.

When the big day came she was absolutely fantastic. It was genuinely reassuring to have her around, mingling with every guest and getting to know our families. So many friends and family told us how much they enjoyed the personal ceremony and Hannah's delivery of it. It all went very well, and Hannah had been so helpful that it was a shame to say goodbye to her later in the day.

We would strongly recommend Hannah for your big day. It is our pleasure to have met and also worked with her. We will never forget that day, and Hannah played a huge role in that.

Perfect all round!

Hannah was our perfect match to write up and lead our humanist wedding celebration. We arranged our wedding in 12 weeks and to say it was stressful is an understatement. We couldn't have done it without Hannah's structure and organisation. She kept the ball rolling even when we felt like giving up.



She listened to exactly what we wanted and truly delivered. We wanted a celebration of our relationship and family and to also tell our story. She used our words by asking us all of the right questions and brought it all together in a beautiful and entertaining way.



Hannah has a really warm and funny presence and she has this incredible way of reminding you to keep it light-hearted and fun.



The ceremony itself got so many compliments on the day and we're forever grateful for how special she made this day for us.



Thank you!!

absolutely the right decision

Ric and I can’t thank you enough for enabling us to create our perfect wedding day.

Choosing to have a humanist ceremony was absolutely the right decision: it allowed us to personalise our ceremony entirely and ensure everything included was truly meaningful to and right for us. For us, the humanist ceremony was the centre point of the day: the main event, the most important and symbolic – our true wedding ceremony. So being able to make it our own was crucial.

You gathered all the right information and put so much effort in to crafting a beautiful ceremony, allowing us freedom to input and adapt as well, which was perfect. It flowed and built momentum, tastefully and with all the gravitas a wedding ceremony should.

We were able to include people close to us as well. It really was the epitome of bespoke and consequently meant all the more. We will treasure the words of our wedding forever, knowing they were just for us and true to us. The vows we made to each other in our humanist ceremony were unquestionably our wedding vows.

I had concerns about having both ceremonies on the day, but the humanist ceremony was so clearly the important, focal, conclusive ceremony that actually it wasn’t a problem at all. I have no doubt our guests saw the humanist as the real wedding: so many people have commented on how it was the best wedding they’ve been to, even after 40 years of wedding attendances. Another guest said she wished she’d known humanist ceremonies were an option.

Not only are we delighted we decided to go with the humanist ceremony, but also that we chose you as our Humanist Celebrant.

You guided us beautifully, not only in writing the ceremony, but in putting together wonderful vows and listening to our opinions. I was especially impressed with the amount of thought and consideration you gave to our ceremony, and planning the flow of time around the ceremony as well. You counselled us about the day, helped us in our times of concern of how others might see things, and gave great and wise insight in to the process, which I was especially grateful for.

I am so, so impressed and happy we chose you. It was just wonderful and wouldn’t have been had the ceremony not been so perfect.

I think the work you put in around the ceremony goes in to making the whole day better too: relaxed, happy couples who understand and know what they’re doing, why, and have been able to craft their own wedding (with your expert help) are always going to have a more positive, meaningful experience. And on the day you were relaxed, confident, helpful, flexible, funny, the utmost professional. Just brilliant.

Even my Mum – a big sceptic – was happy. And that probably says it all.

Thank you so much, we couldn’t have asked for more from you. It was a dream. So, so, so very worth it. You should charge more!!


Our fondest wishes,

Becky and Ric

A truly wonderful experience from start to finish!

We were delighted with how our wedding went and had a truly wonderful day.
The ceremony was everything we could have wished for and we had many positive comments from all the guests – a few were talking about arranging humanist wedding ceremonies for their children!
We’ve very much enjoyed the whole process with you. It has certainly made us think about our relationship and what we want out of our future together.
Thanks again for all your help.
Best wishes for the future,

A truly personal experience

Having experienced the great job Hannah had done at my sister’s wedding, it was an obvious choice to ask her to preside over my own wedding a few years later.

My husband and I enjoyed working with Hannah to create our own, bespoke wedding service. It was fun to answer her questions and take some time to think about how we felt and capture that in words. Throughout the process of creating the ‘script’ Hannah was very supportive and encouraging, giving tips and examples whenever necessary so we were never left alone staring at a blank page!

On the wedding day Hannah delivered a wonderful performance that all of our guests commented on, gushing over how interesting, personalised and enjoyable it had been. Many guests wanted to know all about her work too, so she graciously told them about it, which was a nice touch.

She was a calm, professional presence on the day that helped to ensure the smooth running of the ceremony and made everybody’s life easier knowing that she had control.

Overall we would highly recommend Hannah as a humanist Celebrant to anybody who wishes to have a tailor-made wedding ceremony that you’ll love on the day and remember forever.

Beautiful ceremony

We just wanted to write to you and tell you again how much we loved the humanist ceremony you wrote and delivered for us. We had so many positive comments about how personal it was, how honest and how beautifully it came across. Apparently it had everyone in tears!
We have (as you might expect) discussed the wedding LOTS while we’ve been away and continue to come back to the fact that we are so glad we found you and made the decision to prioritise the ceremony part of the day. It set the tone for a wonderful day to follow (not to mention setting the tone for the way we want to live our lives together).
Thank you so much for all your time, wisdom, sense and direction throughout the process.

A fabulous experience from start to finish

We had the pleasure of working with Hannah when we got married in 2015. She really did everything she could to help make our day truly wonderful.
The humanist ceremony was perfect and so many people have commented on it being the best wedding ceremony they have ever been to. I know I’m biased but I have to agree! It was perfect and captured everything about mine and Tommy’s life together.
We had the most amazing day and we thank Hannah for the enormous part she played in making it so special.
We have kept in touch with Hannah over the years and we will never forget her contribution to our special day.
Hannah has become our ‘go to’ person for advice when organising some of the happiest and saddest events in our lives. She wrote beautiful words for my sister’s wedding during COVID, making her small and private ceremony even more special. Hannah also offered much needed words of advice and comfort when a few years ago, we lost a close friend suddenly.
Hannah,
Thank you once again for all your help, support and words of wisdom leading up to the big day (and beyond). It really was everything we could have wished for and more.
Kind regards,
Lucy and Tommy Xxx

A joyous day with a joyous celebrant

Hannah was, from the initial meeting to our wedding ceremony, everything and more. Her friendly, relaxed and professional manner put us at ease at once and gave us the confidence in her ability to deliver what we wanted on our special day. As we went through the process of writing our own vows, deciding the order of service, she was always on hand to advise and consult.
Hannah was a joy to work with and here we are 10 years on remembering that very special day. Thank you.

When we booked our wedding we assumed we would have a standard Registrar’s service.
However, when we looked at the options of wording available we realised that we wanted a much more meaningful and personal way of making our commitment to each other. One of my best friends had had a humanist service several years ago and it was she who suggested we look into it as an option.
After doing some research we thought that it sounded interesting but didn’t know if it was something which was for us. We found Hannah through a Google search and I had a call with her. She soon dispelled any concerns we had that this was some sort of ‘hippy’ option and explained the detailed and personal nature of the service to us.
Over the coming months Hannah set up regular ‘homework’ in the form of questions and answers went between us via email. After a huge amount of work on her behalf she sent us through our draft ceremony and we both had a tear in our eye (my husband is an ex-boxer so crying isn’t something he is given to!) as we were so overwhelmed by how perfect for us it was and how full of meaning.
Hannah managed the whole event so beautifully and ensured that everyone had rehearsed and knew exactly what they were meant to be doing and when. On the day we all felt relaxed and knew we were in good hands. The humanist ceremony was fantastic with readings from our children and friends, a tying the knot ceremony, lots of stories about our first meeting and our relationship and what had brought us to our wedding day and lots of emotion and laughs.
After the ceremony, our guests told us how blown away they had been by the whole experience. Most of them had never even heard of a humanist ceremony (as we hadn’t before my friend had mentioned it to us) and all thought it was a wonderful way of making our commitment. Our friends who got married 6 months before us said they wished they had know about it as they thought it far outshone the Registrar service they had had! Several guests told us it was the most loving and joyful wedding they had been to.
We are so happy that we found Hannah and that we made the choice to have this ceremony. Her ability to marry professionalism and warmth are what made it such a perfect choice for us. It was so individual to us and was far better than we ever hoped for.
We miss her emails and just wish we could do it all again!

Made our ceremony extra special and bespoke

Hiring Hannah was the best choice we made other than deciding to get married in the first place. She came very highly recommended yet exceeded those expectations tenfold.

We didn't know what we really wanted for a ceremony other than it had to be bespoke for us and include family and friends. Hannah was very diligent and kind whilst working with us to tease out our stories, pulling out of our heads the type of ceremony that was absolutely perfect for us - even though we didn't have a clue what we wanted at the time! She kind of worked some special magic to weave it all together whilst patiently keeping us on track. It is a real skill that she has.

She was very attentive and brilliant at keeping in touch. We were not sure if we wanted readings, handfasting or other things. However, Hannah expertly guided us down the right track for us and encouraged us to go with our love of nature and yet did not make it contrived or twee. Our ceremony was heartfelt and all the guests were incredibly moved, most saying it was one of the best ceremonies they had ever been to and perfect for us.

On the day, Hannah worked superbly well with the venue and the staff, making sure every detail was perfect for the ceremony and engaging expertly with unexpected situations. When I arrived, I had forgotten my beautiful bouquet but Hannah calmed my nerves and helped us to just go with it. We somehow managed to make a new bouquet via the venue manager, photographer and random nice bloke outside who was having a pint whilst out for a walk who was also a florist. Honestly, you couldn't have made it up. Hannah helped pull the situation all together perfectly as we walked into the ceremony. Definitely a skill set, thinking on her feet!!

It's also worth noting that the venue manager and staff had incredible respect and high regard for Hannah as they have worked together previously. Her professionalism on the day really shone through in a calm and friendly manner.

Honestly, if we could add more stars to this review we would! Hannah made it the best day ever.'

A day to remember

We wanted to take a moment or two to contact you and say a heartfelt thanks for your warmth, humour and patience in guiding us through creating our own personal wedding ceremony and vows.

We were delighted, moved and inspired by what you crafted from our words and on the day the whole experience of hearing and speaking them was profoundly meaningful and joyful.

So many of our guests spoke to us about how much they loved the humanist ceremony and how many of them had shed a tear…which was in no small part down to you.

Many, many thanks.
Deborah and Anoob.

There are not enough superlatives to describe Hannah and her work!

Where on earth do I begin? There are not enough superlatives to describe how we feel both about the ceremony you gave us and yourself as a person. The ceremony was everything we had dreamed of and to say that is quite something. The whole process was wonderful and we looked forward to our 'homework' every time, we saved it to do on a nice evening with a glass of wine and became an incredibly enjoyable part of the run up.
I was bowled over by the compliments I received about the ceremony and yourself. I personally was not surprised but to some people I feel it was a revelation to see that a wedding can be so personal and also humorous. Many people who I knew less well said they really felt like they knew Steve and I and how we are as a couple as a result, which is lovely.
In addition your support to Steve and I has been invaluable, from your words of wisdom to bringing me warm bread rolls in my time of need (!) you are an absolute delight and we were honoured to have you conduct our ceremony.
I could go on and on and on and on and on but I won't. Except to say that you are a marvellous person and did the most sensational job and for that we will be forever grateful. I do hope we cross paths in the future.
Hannah it has been our absolute pleasure.

An absolute must for your special day!

After having our legal wedding ceremony in Melbourne, we were looking for something more unique and personal for our UK celebration and Hannah fit this brief perfectly. From the initial zoom conversation we felt like Hannah really got to know us as a couple and understood what we wanted our ceremony to look like. She was fantastic through the whole process, provided a lot of support and ideas for the day and made us feel completely at ease when preparing our script.

On the day the set up and ceremony could not have gone better. There was so much emotion, laughter and love in the room. Our guests commented that it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they have attended, perfectly capturing us as a couple which is exactly what we hoped for. We didn't want it to end and we will forever remember this special ceremony with huge smiles on our faces.

If you're looking for a wedding celebrant that will get to know you, have every detail covered and your guests laughing and crying then don't look past Hannah and Your Three Days. We can't thank you enough!

There aren’t really enough superlatives!

There aren’t really enough superlatives!
Our wedding ceremony has been a huge success and this is in no small part due to Hannah's involvement. It couldn't and wouldn't have been as good without her and many of our guests said it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever been to, which was lovely to hear.
Hannah helped us to gather our thoughts and put into words what we both mean to each other and the importance of marriage to us. We now think this affirmation should be a compulsory process prior to any marriage. With great skill, and using our words, Hannah crafted what we might want to say to our guests and to each other during the ceremony itself. She cleverly wove together individual contributions from ourselves and others close to us to bring our love story to life.
Hannah then led the ceremony superbly and with great attention to detail, ensuring that the plan for the day was executed perfectly. She is
articulate, has great presence and the ability to capture everyone's
attention.
Couples will get out of the process as much as they put into it. If you put in as much time and thought as Hannah does, your ceremony will be truly bespoke and the best it can be. Don't ever worry though that this is something that you can't do, as Hannah will guide you through her process with kindness, humour and sensitivity.
How very special we found the whole process and what a wonderful bond we built with her.’
