I’ve put together a series of short videos to help you navigate the process. My goal is to ensure you can enjoy a beautifully personalised wedding ceremony that tells your unique love story while still checking off all those essential legal requirements
How do we Legalise our Ceremony?
The most important question first: and an answer that shows how easy it really is!
Can we have a Combined Ceremony?
A combined ceremony is one where your Registrar works together with me to offer you personalised ceremony that tells your love story but also makes your marriage legal.
Does the law mean that my celebrant-led ceremony is "just a blessing"?
Lots of couples worry about this, and it's understandable. However....
Why is the Law so restrictive? And can we do anything?
The background is that the current English Marriage Laws are very outdated as they were written hundreds of years ago. This is changing though, and you can influence that change...
The Give Couples Choice Movement tells you what you can do to make a difference, for yourselves and for others. It's a huge opportunity to shape the law so that it allows you to have an entirely personalised ceremony that carries legal weight. Head over there now to have your say!
In the meantime, let's start planning your beautifully crafted ceremony together. Let's fill it with joy, warmth, acceptance and LOVE.
