Frequently Asked Questions

A celebrant led ceremony is a symbolic or secular one, not a legal one. In France it is called a “Ceremonie Laique”. Most couples choose to do the legal side at a registry office, before they arrive in France. However, in so far as the “optics” on the day - all that your guests will see is a beautiful wedding ceremony focusing on you professing your love for each other in front of all your family and friends.

Yes, I do. If a venue is over an hour from my house, I will stay nearby to the venue the night before your wedding and have a rehearsal with you and your wedding party the day before. This really helps with the “choreography” on the day and ensures that everything runs smoothly on the wedding day.

I charge 550 euros for writing and delivering your ceremony. Depending on the location of the venue, there may be travelling fees or accommodation fees on top of that. Drop me a line and we can discuss!

I love to help couples write their vows. I have a large number of resources as well as templates to get you started. I also have a library of different types of readings to help you choose - from humorous, to religious, to nature themed, to literary and beyond.

Yes! I love to incorporate different rituals, such as hand fasting, sand ceremonies, candle ceremonies, wine box ceremonies, ring warming ceremonies, a commemorative certificate signing or a cocktail making ceremony - these are but a few. The sky is the limit with a celebrant led ceremony. All of these can add a very memorable touch to your ceremony. I often try and involve other family members and friends when performing them.
