Five reasons NOT to book a Wedding Celebrant for your Ceremony

24 November 2014/in Celebrant /by Rebecca Waldron

  1. You want the same script everybody else has at your Wedding Ceremony…
    Or you could book a Wedding Celebrant who will work closely with you to provide you with a script that reflects the tone you want in your ceremony and will contain poems, readings, songs and references to things that are unique to you. It is these things that make your ceremony truly personal.
  2. You want your Ceremony delivered by a virtual stranger…
    Or you can engage a Wedding Celebrant who will get to know you and your partner. The Celebrant will build a relationship with you both so that the fundamental element of trust is present and supportive at what is an extremely important time for you.
  1. You want your Wedding Ceremony to be held in the local Registry Office or in a church.
    Or you can hold your Ceremony wherever and whenever you like with a Wedding Celebrant – by a river, in a forest, on a beach, at home or in the beautiful formal venue of your choice. Anywhere that is special to you and your partner. In the UK, the marriage certificate must be signed and witnessed by a Registrar. This can be done privately with two witnesses at your local Registry Office before your ceremony or you may prefer a formal service in a church which reflects and satisfies your religious beliefs.
  1. You want a restricted list of music, readings or poems to choose from.
    Or you can have access to your Celebrant’s ‘library’ of readings, poems and music to choose from. At a Registry Office in the UK you are unable to have certain music such as ‘Angels’ by Robbie Williams. We recognise how important these things are and this forms part of our commitment to make your Wedding Ceremony unique and personal to you.
  1. You don’t want your Ceremony to create long lasting and special memories.
    Or you can influence not only the dressing of your venue or the choice of menu, but the actual content of the most important part of your Wedding Day, the ceremony itself. We want you to remember your ceremony for all the right reasons – that it reflects who you really are, that you have the opportunity to share how much you love each other, that the ceremony is full of love and laughter and that it creates happy, special and poignant memories that last you a lifetime.

So, in actual fact, we have five reasons why you should book a Wedding Celebrant! We have links with some fabulous Celebrants and we can whole-heartedly recommend them:

DIY Wedding vs Wedding Planner?

11 November 2014/in Celebrant /by Rebecca Waldron

Last year I married my wonderful husband and business partner, David. We tied the legal knot in Gretna Green with two witnesses who just happened to walk in after us. Then, in the summer, we had a Civil Wedding Ceremony on the beautiful beach at Wells-next-the-Sea in North Norfolk.

This is a photo of Rebecca Waldron and David Waldron marrying at Gretna Green Registry Office, Celebrant, White Rose Ceremonies, Norfolk Wedding, Suffolk Wedding, Cambridge Wedding, Peterborough Wedding, Northamptonshire Wedding

To save money we organised our ceremony in Norfolk ourselves and made a weekend of it with about 30 close family and friends. Our guests joined in with everything we organised and the only hitch was the high winds in the evening, which meant we couldn’t release Chinese lanterns across the sea.

However, when we talk about it my husband says “you didn’t cry” and he’s right, I didn’t. He is the man of my dreams and always will be but, on that day, I was not exactly ‘present in the moment’ at any stage. My mind was constantly thinking about what had to happen next. Would the hairdresser arrive? Would the flowers arrive? Where were key people? Where was the car? Will the rings get dropped in the sand? Will we get to the Reception in time…..etc.

If I had used the services of a Wedding Planner, I could have relaxed, safe in the knowledge that somebody was there ensuring everything would run smoothly and, even if it didn’t, I might not even have known about it and I certainly wouldn’t have to worry about sorting things out. I could have concentrated on the most important thing that day – my husband – and been totally engaged with every word, every smile, every kiss, every hug, every good wish and every moment there was for us both on that day.

DIY Wedding vs Wedding Planner? If I could experience that day again I would ensure I budgeted for and booked a Wedding Planner – there is absolutely no question about it.

There are lots of Wedding Planners out there, check their credentials and recommendations before you commit. Here are some fabulous Wedding Planners in our region that we have connections with. Have a truly wonderful and enchanting day, be present in every moment – you deserve it!
