Ceremonies with soul. Crafted from love and rooted in connection.

Let's make it
unforgettable and
uniquely 

yours.

This is the part where everyone you
love gathers to celebrate you.

My Approach 

Whether you're after something simple and heartfelt or rich with ritual, I create ceremonies that feel real, relaxed, and authentically you.


With a background in both theatre and yoga, I bring calm presence, deep care, and a joyful energy that helps you feel at ease and truly yourselves. Each ceremony is written from scratch, and I offer pre-wedding grounding sessions so you can slow down and savour the moment.


Independent and inclusive, always.
It’s your love story - I’m just here to help you tell it well.

HIYA, I'm Jess 

and it'd be my honour to marry you!

Part storyteller, part yoga guide - I create relaxed ceremonies brimming with heart and meaning.

"Choosing to have Jess as our wedding celebrant was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our very first conversations she completely understood the vibe and sentiment that we wanted from our ceremony. She took the time to get to know us and tailored everything to our personal story, which was so important to us. Her hard work was reflected in the incredibly happy, celebratory atmosphere she created on the day. So many guests commented how striking the ceremony was. She is just the most warm, kind, calming and generous presence to have on your day. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough."
  • What is a Celebrant?
    A celebrant is someone who creates and leads a wedding ceremony that’s completely personal to you - no scripts, no templates, and definitely no one-size-fits-all. As an independent celebrant, I take the time to get to know you both, your story, and what matters most to you. From there, I write a one-of-a-kind ceremony that reflects your vibe, your values, and your vision for the day, whether that includes rituals, religion, zero tradition, or something totally offbeat. With a celebrant, there are no legal restrictions. You can get married anywhere, say anything, and make the moment your own. My role is to hold space, bring heart, and tell your story in a way that feels real, joyful, and completely you.
  • Celebrant or Registrar, what's the difference?
    A registrar is an official employee of your local council, while a celebrant is an independent professional who works just for you. With a registrar, you usually don’t get to choose who officiates your wedding. With a celebrant, you pick someone who truly clicks with you and understands your vision. Registrars often have multiple weddings lined up back-to-back, especially during busy seasons. As your celebrant, your ceremony is my one and only focus that day, no rushing, no stress. Registrars follow a fixed legal script, so your ceremony tends to be fairly standard. Celebrants craft a fully personalised ceremony, written just for you and your love story. Registrar-led ceremonies typically last 15–20 minutes. Celebrant ceremonies can be as short or as long as you want, including all the special moments that matter to you. Registrars can only marry you in licensed venues, which can limit your options and often comes with a higher price tag. Celebrants can say your vows anywhere - on a beach, in a forest, your nan's garden, or anywhere your heart desires, no license required. It's important to note: only registrars can legally marry you at licensed venues. If you choose a celebrant-led ceremony for a more personal experience, you’ll still need to make it official with a legal registration at a registry office (which usually costs around £50).
  • How far do you travel?
    I’m based in Devon and love working across the South West - but I’m always up for travelling! Whether it’s across the country or beyond, we can absolutely make it work. Just a heads-up: reasonable travel costs may apply depending on the distance.
  • How much does it cost to hire you?
    We’ll start with a complimentary, informal consultation - a chance to have a relaxed chat and see if we’re a good fit. My wedding ceremony fee starts at £595, which includes: ✧ A pre-wedding meeting (either in person, depending on location and availability, or via video call) ✧ A personalised ceremony script, written from scratch and refined with your input ✧ Ongoing support and regular contact in the lead-up to your day ✧ Coordination with key suppliers, like your photographer or venue team ✧ Arrival in good time on the day to check everything’s in place ✧ Confident, heartfelt delivery of your wedding ceremony If you're looking for extras like pre-wedding grounding sessions or a more immersive journey, I offer additional yoga and wellbeing packages too
