About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2021

Last update: October 2024

I trained with the International College of Professional Celebrants and went on study and be awarded the NOCN level 3 qualification. I am thrilled to have won 3 awards in the last 2 years from Hitched, Lux Life, International Wedding Awards Local, International Wedding Awards Regional and was a finalist in The Wedding Industry Award 2024. I was also listed as one of the top 29 UK Celebrants in the UK, thanks to my client's reviews.

Previous to being a Celebrant, I spent over 30 years in the hospitality and events business and have organised and hosted many weddings over the years.

The most important thing to me in my scripts is that the words and style I use, are YOUR words. It should make you comfortable, warm and uplifted. You will read it and think "that's us" and your friends and family will feel the same. It's about representing your characters, your values and your bond. As we get to know each other I can start to suggest what sort of vows or ring exchange words might suit you, what readings you may like depending on your style. That's why the initial meetings together with my couple's questionnaire are so important in getting to know you so that I can deliver your perfect ceremony.Whether you are having an large, lively celebration or an intimate get-together, I will bring your vision to life for your special day.

We will work closely together to design a ceremony script that is a true reflection and celebration of you as a couple, as individuals, and which will tell your story exactly how you want it told. If you are renewing your vows, I can help you to find the perfect words and sentiments that you want to share, drawing on your existing commitment and encompassing life events. I will work with you every step of the way to ensure we create a completely one-off, designer ceremony for you both which I hope will bring delight to your friends and family and which will stay in your hearts forever.

I always present you with a personally designed and boxed commemorative script and certificate for signing on the day, for taht all important photo opp !

I would love to discuss your desires for your wedding day. I mainly cover Berkshire, Surrey, Oxfordshire and Hampshire but will travel further. I also write and delivery ceremonies for funerals and naming days.

Kathy is simply magic!

Choosing Kathy as our celebrant for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. She truly made our ceremony so unique and a one of a kind service.

From our initial zoom meeting, Kathy immediately made us feel at ease, explaining her process and role; as well as helpfully providing advice from the get go and brilliant suggestions and ideas throughout. Her communication was fantastic, ensuring that she prompted us when paperwork needed to be received, such as our couple questionnaire and chosen readings and vows.

We really appreciated the time and effort that Kathy put into ensuring that our love story reflected both of us perfectly. She simply captured this beautifully and since our wedding, we have received numerous compliments from our guests on the uniqueness of our celebrant led wedding and that's pretty much down to Kathy and her warm and friendly persona which radiated throughout our service.

It's no wonder she's won numerous awards and listed as one of the top UK celebrants as she is utterly fantastic, a joy to work with and, to put simply; anyone getting married needs to book Kathy now!

Couldn't have asked for a better celebrant.

Finding Kathy as our wedding celebrant was like hitting a jackpot. She is an absolute delight not just as a celebrant but also as a person. She did much more than just the basic tasks. From visiting us in person to instantly answering our multiple queries over video calls and emails, from preparing the speech as per our style to narrating our story with a heartfelt tone that all our guests deeply connected with... and the list is never-ending! She is punctual, ethical, professional and most of all, very understanding. Thank you Kathy for our incredibly stunning ceremony and all the work and effort you put into it.
On our wedding day, she gifted us a bag full of beautiful prints of the ceremony speech, our vows, the wedding certificate, and a copy of the readings. Also, received bonus coasters with our names on them. All beautifully thought out by her. We will treasure these mementos.
It's surprising yet lovely how she picked up and executed the whole ceremony exactly the way we wanted! We can go on and on, but shouldn't take up all the space on this page!

Absolutely spot on!

From the very first contact with Kathy, through to the end of the ceremony, she was polite, professional, and warming! With it being a vow renewal with a wedding twist - thanks Covid! Kathy understood what we wanted and really captured us in the most perfect way! She included my 2 littlies in the ceremony, and even when they were distracting, Kathy kept it flowing!

I would 100% recommend Kathy if you want a personal, well written, and basically delivered ceremony! We received so many compliments on the ceremony!

The most brilliant wedding celebrant!

Kathy was our wedding celebrant and we knew from the beginning we were making the best choice! Kathy really took the time to get to know us through meeting us in person and a couples questionnaire and put together a beautiful ceremony that was perfect for the relaxed, informal style we were looking for and we had plenty of opportunities to review the script for our ceremony. Many of our guests said how much they loved our ceremony and how friendly Kathy was - we couldn’t agree more and would recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a celebrant!

Best day of our lives!

If you’re looking for someone who is professional, personable, truly passionate about creating memorable moments, always there when we needed her and to advise us, we highly recommend Kathy!

Kathy crafted a ceremony that was really unique, beautifully delivered, and absolutely according to our own story. Our guests are still talking about how touching and personal the ceremony was!

Thank you for making our wedding day unforgettable Kathy — we are so grateful to have had you as our celebrant!

Amazing, thank you!

Kathy was very attentive; she took her time to know and understand our story to make the blessing the most personalised possible. We met up in person and had several meetings online. She was nice and sweet, she knew the venue and spoke on our behalf. We felt in good hands. She had a great presence on the day itself during the ceremony and added some spontaneous humour near the end. Thoroughly recommended. Thank you for making our day special x

The best celebrant ever!

Kathy was just amazing. We cannot put into words how fantastic she really was! From first contact, to saying goodbye on the day, Kathy was more than we could ever ask for! Our ceremony script was absolutely perfect, and captured our entire relationship. Kathy channeled her inner Lady Whistledown to match our Bridgerton inspired venue, this captured the hearts of all of our guests (or the ton!). Thank you so much for everything Kathy, you made our day perfect xxx

Professional and full of love

Kathy was absolutely fabulous from start to finish and beyond, sending us a little gift at Christmas for our first Christmas as husband and wife. On the night she has us down to a tee, the ceremony was professionally executed and full of love. Thank you again Kathy.

5 stars, thank you Kathy!

We were originally looking to have a registrar wedding but decided we were keen to have a ceremony that was more personal to us. From the first moment we met Kathy virtually, we thought that she had a warm and approachable manner, and she was exactly what we were looking for in terms of a celebrant. She was professional, fun, and open-minded about the ideas we had, as well as suggesting things that would add to our ceremony which she had put a lot of research into beforehand. She even wore one of the hats from our business on the day, which we were thrilled about!

So many guests commented on how the ceremony was conducted - it was welcoming and relaxed and made them feel at ease throughout. It was exactly what we hoped for. After the wedding, we were not expecting the little details Kathy added, including our lovely ceremony book and Christmas tree decoration! Thank you so much, Kathy, and we recommend her to all those considering a celebrant.

An absolute treasure

If Kathy is available on the date of your wedding you are very lucky and you should not hesitate to book her! From the first chat to the day of our wedding, Kathy guided us through the process and helped us to create a bespoke ceremony which was so perfect for us. She is warm, friendly and knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble.
Kathy is also a gifted public speaker who strikes just the right balance between feeling and humour. Kathy, we were blessed to find you. Thank you

We found Kathy to be incredibly easy to work with to arrange our vows and readings, she made us both feel at ease and added just the right amount of humour with sentiment for a very special ceremony. Highly recommended.
