Wedding Celebrants in West Yorkshire

We identified Helen from a search online as a potential celebrant. She responded immediately to our enquiry, calling me back, and we had a conversation - which convinced me that Helen would do a great job. I wasn't disappointed. I would highly recommend Helen in her capacity as an independent celebrant.

Christie was amazing! We loved our ceremony, it was relaxed, fun and full of love.

Nikki is truly amazing ! She made our wedding ceremony so special with her unique ability to tell our story in a very loving way. We were blown away by the ceremony and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house as Nikki spoke. She weaved in her great sense of humour taking our guests through a rollercoaster of emotions. Nikki has such a warmth about her and from our very first call with her we knew she would reflect the true feel we were after even if we didn’t know what that was ourselves ! We have been inundated with comments from our guests about the ceremony and the fantastic Nikki. If you are looking for a celebrant then look no further - Nikki is amazing and we would have no doubts in recommending her. She reaffirmed the decision we took to choose a celebrant and boy did it pay off !

We’d highly recommend Louise as a wedding celebrant following our recent wedding. Louise was there to guide us all the way from initial picturing of how we’d like the ceremony to run many months ahead, building out and finessing the detail, checking timings, rehearsal, and then her clear and uplifting delivery on our big day itself. So many of our guests commented (and still do) about how personal, fun, unique and memorable our cceremony was. Whether you’re seeking the simplest of ceremonies or something you’ve nearly entirely personally bespoked in terms of content and sequence Louise professionally guides and works with you to seek to deliver your wishes, whilst gently nudging you back on course if needed. Louise’s detailed knowledge of what is and isn’t possible for the ceremony is very reassuring. Louise formed a nice connection with our guests in the preamble ahead of the ceremony and made it her priority to also introduce herself and learn a little about each of our wedding party. This added to the relaxed atmosphere we were seeking. Many guests commented to us how they’d enjoyed our very personalised ceremony that Louise was central to helping us put together and her lovely storytelling style mixed in with the formal elements of the service. In a nutshell we’d say you don’t need to look anywhere else – book Louise! She's a star and such a warm and supportive person.

When planning our wedding we knew that we wanted our ceremony to be unique and a highlight of our day. As both of us are not religious, we wanted to make sure that the ceremony was meaningful and gave our guests an insight into the journey that had lead up to our wedding day. We were also keen to make sure our ceremony was entertaining and would be enjoyable for everyone in attendance. Jarrad and I really enjoyed the process of working with Hannah and found by sharing our experiences and seeing the ceremony come together heightened the excitement that we had for our big day. We especially liked how there were bits that Jarrad and I had written independently and were kept as a surprise until the actual ceremony. Hannah was able to take what we were trying to say and transform it into a ceremony that told our story and truly reflected who we are as a couple. Looking back on our wedding day, there is honestly not a single moment that we would change. We get to watch our full ceremony over and over on our wedding video and each time it makes us smile and laugh. From Hannah’s words, the readings to the well wishes it was utterly perfect and we would not have been able to have this perfect ceremony without Hannah and her guidance. Charlie and Jarrad

Lyn created the perfect wedding vow renewal ceremony for us. She listened carefully to our stories and conducted a beautiful wedding vow renewal ceremony. Lyn incorporated all our requirements and wishes. She was amazing, very professional, confident and compassionate. We would highly recommend her services

We are so glad we hired Mark. He is absolutely brilliant and made our ceremony so personal and hilarious (that was our brief). We’ve had so many comments about how brilliant he and the ceremony were. I wouldn’t hesitate hiring him again for another celebration.

We both cannot thank Helen enough for such a personalised, thoughtful, and beautiful ceremony. Before planning our wedding, we didn’t really know much about humanist celebrants but having had the ceremony we wouldn’t have had it any other way. Planning a wedding with a new baby was stressful but Helen was very supportive and made the process so easy for us. She went to great lengths to clarify what sort of ceremony we would enjoy and also to get to know us personally. It really felt like someone was conducting the ceremony who had known us for years. Throughout the whole process she was helpful and warm and brought many suggestions to enable us to agree a beautiful ceremony. Our initial contact with her was via video call and her warm, positive nature, instantly attracted us to choose her as our celebrant, we had spoken to a couple but Helen stood out as who we wanted. We meet up face to face a few weeks later, where we began to talk through our story, we knew we’d made the right decision. Sharing our life’s story with Helen was so easy. It was like meeting up with an old friend for a catch up. . After this meeting, Helen gave us her timeline up to the big day of when first draft would be ready etc. She always worked to schedule, allowing us to make changes along the way, not that many were needed in that first meeting she captured everything! Helen arrived with plenty of time on the day. Greeting all of our family and friends as they arrived and talking those involved in the ceremony through everything they needed to know. When the moment finally came, Helen delivered our ceremony with the same warmth and joy we’d experienced on our first meeting, but this time our family got to join in. It was exactly what we had wanted and envisioned our ceremony to be. Following the ceremony, Helen took the time to once again speak to both of our families, as well as joining us for a photo to capture the wonderful moment, before she then left us to enjoy the rest of our day. We will always remember everything Helen did to make the build up and the day, so special for us. It really was more than we could have hoped for and can’t thank her enough for being apart of our day!

Paul captivated all that was special about the day, he engaged and added to the whole event by making the Bride and Groom feel very special and included all the family and friends gathered in this amazing venue.(Fixby Hall)

We worked with Josie to co-create a bespoke wedding/naming ceremony for our postponed “wedding party”, having officially tied the knot in a small ceremony during Lockdown. From our first meeting, Josie took a great interest in us and took time to hear our story, understand what we wanted to design, and then create the perfect ceremony. Josie was so amenable to our requirements and kept us as involved as we wanted in the creation of the ceremony, whilst also relieving us of a lot of this burden. Regular meetings via Zoom, and email contact helped us create the perfect ceremony which incorporated our own take on a wedding ceremony and then a naming ceremony for our Son. We really looked forward to our meetings with Josie, where we would all get excited as we created the script and each time we felt it became more finely tuned to exactly what we wanted. We were especially impressed that Josie liaised with all the other wedding suppliers (venue, band, photographers) to ensure everything surrounding the ceremony was integrated and transitions were smooth.The lengths Josie went to in ensuring the ceremonial script was perfect were above and beyond our expectations. On the day, Josie was warm, welcoming and charming and delivered the perfect ceremony for us. She guided us through the ceremony and delivered it beautifully. The biggest compliment on the day, from a guest, was that they thought the Ceremony was “the most ‘us’ thing they’ve ever seen”, capturing perfectly the sentiment that Josie helped us to create a truly memorable and bespoke Ceremony! In addition to this, Josie sent a box afterwards with the ceremony transcript beautifully presented inside as well as some really pretty tea lights- such a lovely touch! Josie is kind, thoughtful and welcoming, which alongside her professionalism, organisation and commitment make her the perfect Celebrant! Thank you Josie, for making our long awaited big day so magical!
