About

Hi! There's one big advantage in having a former TV presenter as your Celebrant - you can be sure everyone at the back will be able to hear! But joking aside, I've been lucky enough to share the most important moments of so many people's lives in my job...becoming a qualified wedding Celebrant feels like a natural progression and a way of spreading happiness!

I know it's scary entrusting your precious ceremony to someone you've hardly met... so this is me: I live in Manchester and have two grandchildren (so far!) and two very scruffy dogs. I love adventures and have sailed round Cape Horn, ridden a vintage motorcycle in South Africa and I'm about to take the train through Europe to Istanbul. I also write and publish biographies and memoirs for anyone who wants to record their lives in print.

Inviting me to help create your memories is a huge privilege - after all, you’re welcoming me into your life. So it’s really important for you to know that whoever you are, however you live your life, whatever your background and beliefs and whatever your relationships..I truly love that we're all different and I promise to reflect your values in all my ceremonies. Oh - and did I mention we'll have fun too?

Now you know a bit more about me, If you feel a connection, why not get in touch? Whether you want something small and intimate or a big themed occasion…whether you dream of getting hitched under the stars, or in a tank of sharks, together we’ll create an unforgettable ceremony for your perfect day.

Everything in the Lifestory weddings package is unique to you:

- You decide if I’m the right person to create and deliver your wedding ceremony, once we’ve chatted through your plans and dreams - no obligation, I promise!
- You tell me all about yourselves and your relationship so we can create an amazing ceremony to reflect your personalities and your life experiences
- Choose your favourite music and readings…or include my own, chosen just for you. Special traditions and rituals? I can weave them in
- You’re not alone on this (sometimes stressful!) journey - I’ll be with you throughout to support and guide...and I'll work closely with your other suppliers too
- Once you’re happy with my script for your wedding, you can be absolutely confident I will conduct your ceremony with the warmth, joy and professionalism you expect - I know how to deliver an amazing show on the day!

I can't wait to hear from you. Lifestory.vip

The perfect celebrant for our wedding!

Merryn was perfect from start to finish! My partner and I got married last week and have had loads of people tell us how good Merryn was! We really didn't want a religious wedding and we had a list of things we did and didn't want. We got everything we wanted.

Merryn came to visit us and we spent a long time talking about the wedding. We went through it all with no pressure to include anything we didn't want. From the first meeting Merryn went on to coordinate with the best-man, the bridesmaids and others involved in the ceremony.

With a wedding there is a lot going on and it can feel a bit overwhelming but thankfully we didn't even have to think about the ceremony itself. It was stress free! We did a quick rehearsal the day before which was quick as I don't like a wedding to be overly planned and to spend a long time going over things.

The day went perfectly and smoothly. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a personal and loving input into their wedding day.

An unforgettable ceremony with personal touches: Merryn made our wedding perfect.

Merryn was an amazing celebrant for our wedding! Right from the start she spent a lot of time getting to know us and planning the ceremony, she thought of so many little details which made the ceremony very special.

Merryn really took the time to get to know us and included so many personal touches in our ceremony. We loved how she incorporated Croatian traditions, which meant a lot to us, and the blessing of our daughter was so beautiful and heartfelt, there wasn't a dry eye in the room!

Merryn was always professional but also very approachable when we came up with ideas to tweak the wording, making the whole planning process a lot of fun. On the day, everything went smoothly thanks to her, and we could just relax and enjoy our special moment.

We’re so grateful to Merryn for making our wedding day so memorable. If you’re looking for a celebrant who’s caring, thoughtful, and on top of things, Merryn is the one to go with.
