  Kerrie is a truly exceptional celebrant.

  Kerrie is a truly exceptional celebrant. We got married in September in Carlisle. We've both been to lots of weddings in the past, and generally, while its always lovely to see friends get married, the ceremony itself is usually the least favourite part as it can be preachy or a little dull. Ours however, was absolutely incredible and it's all thanks to Kerrie.
  
  We wanted something that was personal to us and that felt special, and Kerrie more than delivered that for us. She took the time to get to know us as a couple. She listened, offered her expert advice and planned something so special that it blew us away. She is so warm, kind, understanding and so easy to talk to. She just gets it, and she's brilliant.
  
  All of our guests were raving about the ceremony. My cousin said it was the most honest and beautiful ceremony she'd ever been to. One friend messaged us days later to say that he'd been "really affected" by our wedding. It set the tone for the entire day, which was the most incredible and special day of our lives.
  
  Thank you so much to Kerrie for making our wedding so special. We'll hold the memory of it in our hearts forever. It wouldn't have been the same without Kerrie, so thank goodness that we found her. We are so grateful!

  How downright bloody lovely to receive these kind words Karen.
  
  Firstly, may I thank you both for being so lovely to work with as I know your schedules were crazy in the run up to the big day.
  
  Your friends and family were a special group of people and it works both ways, they affected me before and after the ceremony.
  
  I do truly love the part I play in bringing your ceremony together and the reason I do this for both weddings and end of life celebrations is because I have experienced 'dull' and 'template' on many occasion myself and I vow to myself that if my ceremonies ever become either of those things, I shall walk away.
  
  You go and enjoy being married you gorgeous pair of love birds.
  With Love
  Kerrie

  Low wood bay wedding

  Kerrie, where do we start! You made our whole ceremony so incredible, you made us both feel so at ease and your delivery was excellent. We’ve had such a laugh getting to know you and we’ve had so many lovely compliments from friends and family about how good you were. Would recommend you 100 times over! Nothing was ever too much to ask, and you captured our story beautifully. You also looked fantastic your dress was stunning! Thank you x

  What a cracking day we all had Sara. It was my first experience of delivering a wedding at Paddock Barn and I truly hope it’s not the last - what a gorgeous place to celebrate your marriage and party with your family friends. A destination wedding success ❤️❤️ Thank you both for trusting the process xx

  Kerrie made our day so incredibly special!

  We are beyond grateful to have had Kerrie as our wedding celebrant! From the very beginning, she was nothing short of amazing. Her warm and personable approach set the tone for what turned out to be a truly magical day.
  
  All our guests couldn’t stop raving about how special, personal, and unique our ceremony was; many remarked that they had never experienced anything like it! Kerrie has a remarkable gift for weaving together individual stories and emotions, and she certainly made our day unforgettable.
  
  In an incredibly touching gesture, Kerrie took the time to amend our ceremony to honour my husband’s late father, who had passed away just before our wedding. The tribute was heartfelt and beautifully integrated, and it brought many to tears. It was a poignant reminder of love and loss that made the day even more meaningful for everyone present.
  
  Kerrie’s professionalism and dedication were evident as she liaised with all our other vendors in the lead-up to the wedding. She ensured that everyone was aligned with the program, which made the flow of the day seamless. I was also particularly impressed with how she coordinated with the florist and stylist to dress in colours that matched our wedding theme—such a thoughtful touch that showed her attention to detail!
  
  On the morning of the wedding, Kerrie arrived early and spent valuable time with me and my bridesmaids, making everyone feel comfortable and familiar with her presence. She was equally attentive to the groom’s party, checking in regularly to reassure me that everything was in hand, especially after they had a late-night prior. Her calm demeanour truly put everyone at ease.
  
  One of the best parts of working with Kerrie was her ability to incorporate unique elements into the ceremony that resonated with us as a couple. As we live just 10 minutes away, she kindly visited our home a couple of days before the big day for a brief walk-through, which was incredibly helpful.
  
  We chose not to read Kerrie’s script or words beforehand, wanting to preserve the surprise and capture our genuine reactions during the ceremony. We discussed what we wanted to include and provided her with some readings, and I can honestly say she exceeded all our expectations. The ceremony was brimming with love, tears, and laughter!
  
  Overall, Kerrie made our wedding ceremony a beautiful, intimate, and unforgettable experience. Her warmth, professionalism, and personal touch were everything we could have hoped for and more. If you are considering a celebrant for your special day, do not hesitate to choose Kerrie! She will bring your vision to life with grace and love. Thank you, Kerrie, for making our day so incredibly special! x

  Laura, I have just cried reading this. There’s so much more than people realise to our role and so it’s wonderful when a couple just get it. I think having the ‘expat’ experiences between us helped enormously too and I will never forget the trust you both placed in me, especially going through such a difficult time . Thank you so much for taking time to write these kind words and I hope our paths cross again in future in Cumbria x

  Kerrie is a must!!

  We cannot thank Kerrie enough for the beautiful ceremony she composed for us - it was everything we wanted and more, we honestly couldn't be happier 🥰 The blend of humour and emotion was exactly what we wanted and she managed to make it so personal - it was magical 🥰 Our guests were blown away, as were we - especially with that little trick Kerrie had up her sleeve which brought back lovely memories on the day! Kerrie made the whole process so easy and really put us both at ease, we honestly cannot thank or recommend her enough. Kerrie, You are amazing at what you do and it is so apparent that you are in love with creating such memorable moments for people. Thank you, thank you, thank you ❤️❤️❤️
  
  PS: Dex says hello 👋☺️

  One of a kind!

  Kerrie put so much time and effort into making our wedding ceremony so special and personalised. She took time getting to know us and and really created the most beautiful day for us. I’d highly recommend Kerrie! She’s so incredibly thoughtful, quirky, creative and made you feel so at home.

  A Perfect Day

  From start to finish Kerrie provided an incredibly personable and professional service. We were so happy to find such a warm and reassuring celebrant, and instantly knew Kerrie was the one for us.
  
  A good amount of time was taken to really get to know us both, which resulted in a wedding service that was unique, fun, moving, and full of joy.
  
  We had the perfect day, and Kerrie played a large part in making that happen - thanks once more! X X

  You boys were amazing (especially when I thought we were going to have an M6 drama 🙈😂). You will forever hold a special place in my heart as my first same sex couple and your wonderful family and friends welcomed me with open arms! Great choice of venue and photographer too 😜 thank you for taking the time to write a review of my work. It really helps other couples make informed choices xx

  Amazing Experience!

  Kerrie was absolutely amazing. She made our wedding so special and everyone commented on how personal she was and she made it so lovely for us.
  She's such a nice person who done everything possible to reflect our relationship, adding humour which we absolutely loved. She even done a personalised poem!
  All my guests said it was the best service they've ever experienced.
  In the morning she came to speak to both me and my husband and made us feel so at ease, she even managed to calm the wedding nerves.
  Kerrie is beautiful inside and out, we couldn't recommend her enough.
