Brilliant Celebrant

We recently had the pleasure of having Jess as our wedding celebrant and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From our initial meeting to the moment we said "I do," Jess delivered a brilliant service and helped make our special day truly unforgettable.

From the start, Jess was incredibly warm and approachable, making us feel comfortable and understood. She took the time to get to know us both as individuals and as a couple, ensuring that the ceremony reflected our personalities, values, and love story. This personal touch made our wedding feel unique and deeply meaningful.

Throughout the planning process, Jess was highly organised and professional. She guided us through each step, offering valuable advice and creative ideas while always respecting our wishes. Jess also offered support to our family and friends who were doing readings for our ceremony ensuring they felt at ease.

On the big day, Jess brought a calming presence and a joyful spirit that resonated with us and our guests. The ceremony was beautifully crafted and delivered with eloquence and genuine emotion. Her ability to balance heartfelt moments with light-hearted touches kept everyone engaged and made the ceremony truly memorable.

We wholeheartedly recommend Jess to any couple looking for a celebrant who is not only professional and talented but also genuinely caring and passionate about what they do.

Thank you, Jess for making our wedding day a perfect reflection of our love story. We will cherish the memories forever.

Wonderful 🩷

It may have poured with rain on our wedding day last week, but we were lucky enough to have Jess there with us as our Celebrant. I felt like I’d known her always. Jess couldn’t have been any more wonderful from start to finish. We knew she was the right Celebrant for us the moment we first spoke over zoom and from that moment on, Jess was in regular communication with us, checking if we needed help, giving us nudges when we needed them (planning a wedding with a toddler is HARD and I needed nudging 😄), making sure that she made our ceremony as personal and special as possible…she even spoke in Italian for my husbands family who were over from Napoli. I mean you seriously couldn’t ask for more. I’m quite sad now that’s it’s all over and we won’t have an official excuse to speak again, but I do hope we will check in now and then and I’m excited to see what lies ahead for Jess. I’d book her again a thousand times over in a heartbeat. No one could have done more and so beautifully for us.

The best wedding decision we made!

There are a lot of decisions to make around weddings but having Jess as our celebrant was absolutely one of the best things we did!

From the minute we met- we knew we were going to get on well and the way Jess helped make our ceremony so personal was really really special. She helped us write vows that were so authentically us and brought her friendly and calming energy to provide a relaxed atmosphere where she shared stories about our relationship- making everyone laugh (and cry) in all the right places.

Every single one of our friends and family said how personal and emotional the ceremony was - it’s something we keep on hearing and that is down to Jess and how well she put everything together. She was a huge part of a big day in our lives and we are so so grateful that we made the decision to go with her as our celebrant (if we’re honest from the minute we spoke there was never another option).

Thank you so much Jess! ❤️

Incredible!

We cannot thank Jess enough for being such a wonderful part of our wedding day! From the moment we met her, she made us feel completely at ease. On the day, Jess delivered our story so beautifully and with such warmth that many of our guests (even our families!) thought she was a close friend. Her ability to capture the essence of our relationship was truly remarkable. Jess made the ceremony feel personal, heartfelt, and unforgettable.

What made Jess even more special was how wholeheartedly she embraced our wedding culture. She went above and beyond by finding an Indian wedding guest outfit of her own accord and researching Keralan traditions to help the ceremony flow smoothly. This thoughtful gesture made the day feel even more meaningful for us and our families.

We feel so lucky to have had Jess as our celebrant and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will make their day truly special.

Thank you, Jess!

Jess The Celebrant

Jess was our wedding celebrant for our wedding on April 10th this year at The Castlefield Rooms in Manchester.
She was absolutely was amazing from start to finish and made us feel at ease from the get go. Following our initial phone call and filling out a questionnaire to get to know some personal details she came up with our script which was just perfect. It was the beautiful non traditional vibe that we wanted to go for with lots of little personal touches throughout for our ceremony.
Jess was so understanding and quick to help with any minor changes that we wanted to make (even in the near weeks before the big day!)
Having jess as our celebrant meant the service was a lot more personal and allowed her to mention the things that mattered the most to us on our day.
Jess was so lovely and made the service run smoothly and helped put us both at ease during the ceremony.
The gift she gave us was also such a kind gesture and was a beautiful idea.
If you are thinking of booking Jess as your celebrant we couldn’t recommend her enough!
Thank you again Jess for being so great and for playing such a big part in our special day.

Rick and Alex

Excellent celebrant

Jess is an absolutely wonderful celebrant and our ceremony was perfect. The script was unique and personal with hints of humour. She met with us several times and was able to accommodate family requests whilst keeping the ceremony in line with our wishes and entertaining for our guests. She suggested including a sand ceremony which was a lovely way to involve our families. Definitely book Jess as your celebrant.

Our wedding celebrant

Jess was the perfect celebrant for our wedding day. We had experienced a family bereavement which meant we had to postpone our original date and we then couldn’t get a registrar so began to research celebrants. We came across Jess and loved the feel of her social media and website, we then had a chat with her and it just felt like she was the perfect person to lead our day.

It was the best decision we could have made especially selecting Jess. From the get go she was friendly warm and understanding. She took the time to get to know us and really managed to capture our relationship throughout the ceremony.

She was helpful and went above and beyond to ensure we had the most special day and we really felt like she was as invested in our wedding as any family member or friend.

I really believe Jess made our wedding the most special it could be and would choose her again in a heartbeat.

Chris & Jess

Jess was absolutely fantastic, from the minute we spoke with her we knew she was the right person for us. She came up with the script following one call with us and there were literally no changes made. On the day she was superb, engaging with guests, putting our minds at ease and was so personable throughout the ceremony. I cannot thank her enough for making our day so special and would thoroughly recommend her to anybody looking for a celebrant. Thanks again Jess

Jubilant Jess!

My partner and I wanted a celebrant led LGBTQ ceremony, and came across recommendations for Jess in a wedding group online.
From her initial professional email communication to her lovely script, which was built with us every step of the way, we have been gently guided to ensure our ceremony was a true reflection of us. Jess is kind, compassionate, honest and fun. We truly believe our wedding was made by having Jess support us on our most important day

The perfect celebrant

Jess is amazing and we can’t recommend her enough! From the moment we met her we knew she was the perfect person to marry us. The wedding script she prepared was perfect, so much so we didn’t want to change a word and made no amendments. She regularly checked in before the big day and made sure everything was in order and went smoothly for the ceremony, printing off and bringing the readings with her so it was one less thing for us to do and personalising the service to incorporate everything we wanted. Thank you so much Jess, if you are considering using a celebrant definitely use Jess!

A lovely, professional and genuine celebrant

We booked Jess for our wedding on Sunday 16th July 2023.

Jess came recommended to us by our venue which always provides a bit of assurance and on meeting Jess we could see why.

She was very warm and welcoming but had a calmness and professionalism about her which was comforting and felt like she’d have our day well in hand.

We exchanged details and a WhatsApp group was set up with communication when needed. It didn’t feel like a bombardment but an occasional check-in and ask for information when needed. We liked this style as it didn’t add to the pressure we already had in arranging a wedding.

Jess is very thorough in getting to know you as a person and as a couple. Aside from chats and check-ins, we were asked to complete a couples questionnaire which we could do separately or together. We chose separately as we thought it’d be interesting to offer our different perspectives on the relationship. Jess took all of that info and worked it into an amazing speech that really captured what our relationship is all about.

On the day itself, Jess arrived early and dressed really nice – taking our colours and theme into consideration. She said hello but then was quick off the mark to make sure everything was ready with the venues and staff supporting.

Jess’s professionalism and warmness shone though as she coordinated the start of the ceremony and spoke with confidence, humour and came across really genuine and human. This definitely helped with our own nerves on the day. She arranged a light hearted poem, reflected both of our questionnaires really well and touched on important points to both of us which we really appreciated.

We couldn’t recommend Jess enough as a celebrant. A lovely person and we feel lucky to have had her share in our special day.

All the best, Jess, and thank you.

Maisie and Ben X
