Morrisons Supermarket Wedding Ceremony – as seen on TV!

3 April 2015/in Celebrant /by Rebecca Waldron

Unlike any other Saturday afternoon in Morrisons Supermarket, this one was full of spectacle.  There was music, applause, eyes wide with disbelief as the Bride entered the store with her bridesmaids and friends.  There were big smiles as people realised what was going on, the jostling of shoppers, smart phones held high to take photos, ITV and BBC cameras, the Press Association and the Morrisons photographer all vying for position, cafe customers standing on tables.  ‘Love is an open door’ played across the store as we started their Wedding Ceremony.

Rebecca Wooller and Blake Green chose an unusual venue of a supermarket for their Wedding Ceremony.  After being introduced by their landlady and with Rebecca being quite poorly at the time, they had their first few dates in the Cafe at Morrisons.  Not perhaps the most romantic setting you would think.  But when it came to Rebecca and Blake’s Wedding Ceremony it had all the elements of a traditional and emotional wedding.  It was full of romance, laughter and love.

We give all our lovely couples the Wedding Book we have carefully put together.  Rebecca and Blake spent time together choosing readings, poems and vows.  We also spent time with Rebecca and Blake finding out what they wanted in their wedding service.  While they had chosen an unusual venue, they wanted to include readings, exchange vows and rings, have special people involved and do all the things you would want in a traditional ceremony.  Blake read ‘A Lovely Love Story’ by Edward Monkton and another reading ‘The Cowgirl’ was included.

Rebecca and Blake were totally focussed on each other as they exchanged vows and we included our Ring Ceremony which involved all their invited guests.   Rebecca’s 5-year old grandson was very much involved as well, the perfect  little bodyguard for those all important wedding rings.  We  sang a rousing version of Dusty Springfield’s ‘I only Want to be with You’.  Songsheets were handed round, the music played and we all sang at the top of our voices.

After the happy couple signed our Wedding Certificate we announced them Man and Wife.  They left the store to cheers, applause and many congratulations.

Featured Wedding Leila & Johnnie White Rose Ceremonies

We are over the moon to have one of our weddings featured by the fabulous Amara Bridal Registry.  We have a real passion for what we do and we love being involved with special life celebrations such as Weddings.  For this Wedding we worked closely with the wonderful Dominique Douglas and her team from Stylish Events Wedding & Event Management.  The photographs were taken by the very talented Kate from Kate Neilen Fine Art Photography.

Leila and Johnnie had extended wedding celebrations and they included special people in different ways throughout their weekend. They thought very carefully about every aspect of their Wedding.  They meditated on the significance of their union with close family and friends before their legal ceremony at the Registry Office.  The next day they enjoyed a joyous Wedding Ceremony with extended family and friends, followed by champagne and punting along the beautiful river beside the historic Trinity College and Kings College.  To top it all off there were more celebrations at their Wedding Breakfast and evening entertainment.

When we conduct a Wedding Ceremony we talk to our couples and find out what’s important to them.  We will listen to how they talk to each other and write the script accordingly. We include all the beautiful and traditional features of a Wedding and can add different elements if our couples want them.  These include lighting a candle to remember those who can’t be present, singing, dancing (yes, really!), applause, fun and laughter.

Follow the link to see how much fun our lovely couple Leila and Johnnie had and how they made their day so special – enjoy! White Rose Ceremonies in featured Wedding!

Confessions of a Celebrant

31 October 2014/in Celebrant /by Rebecca Waldron

What is a Civil Celebrant?

It’s our first year anniversary this month and what an incredible year it’s been. From not knowing what a Civil Celebrant was, to becoming one, to experiencing and being involved in the full range of events that happen in people’s lives – Weddings, Baby Namings and Funerals.

I am asked so often, what is a Civil Celebrant? Well, we have some fabulous experiences with couples who want their wedding ceremony to be somewhere different, such as on a working farm – think of haybales, bunting, the clink of lemonade bottles and cattle in the background; in fields or meadows – think wild flowers, sunshine, a gentle breeze, ribbons on chairs; or at beautiful formal venues – think of the dresses we buy!

We laugh, we cry, we clap, we hug, we cheer, we get stuck in mud with our wellington boots, blown by the wind, barked at by dogs or lost in country lanes trying to find the right field.

We write scripts for all the ceremonies we deliver so that they are unique and, each time we do, we are reminded how privileged we are to meet such amazing and lovely people and, what a great honour it is for us to be asked to lead the happy ceremonies or more sensitive funeral services for these families.

A Civil Celebrant is a person who conducts civil ceremonies that focus purely on the people involved and are not linked to any particular religion or other institutional standard. We are free to deliver the ceremony or service that the family want and are not limited with what we can say or do. We are also free to conduct a Baby Naming or Wedding Ceremony wherever we are asked to although, for obvious reasons, funerals must be conducted either in a cemetery or crematorium.

We come equipped with lots of experience, stories to share, creative ideas and a professional yet fun way of working with people.

So, what is a Civil Celebrant? It is absolutely the best job we have ever been involved in and we wouldn’t swap it for the world!

Follow our blog for more insights into the life of a Civil Celebrant.
