Hi! I'm Emily, an independent wedding celebrant based in Surrey, creating personal and heartfelt wedding ceremonies filled with love, laughter and personality for couples across Surrey, London and wherever your love story takes me.

I am so proud to be a recommended wedding celebrant at some of Surrey’s most loved wedding venues, including The Barn at Botley Hill and Gate Street.

Whether you're looking for a romantic and emotional ceremony, something relaxed and playful, or somewhere beautifully in between, I'll craft a personal wedding ceremony that truly feels like you and leaves your guests saying, "That was so them!"

  • "From the very beginning, Em invested so much time in getting to know us and our story. Nothing ever felt rushed, and she was always happy to chat whenever we had questions or wanted to discuss ideas. Having a dedicated WhatsApp group made everything so easy and meant we always felt supported throughout the planning process. The ceremony itself was everything we had hoped for and more. Em took the time to truly understand us as a couple, and the ceremony she wrote reflected our journey together perfectly. It was personal, heartfelt and full of warmth, while also including moments of humour that had everyone smiling."

  • “We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant than Emily. From the very beginning, she really took the time to listen to us and understand exactly how we wanted our wedding to feel. Emily created the most magical and deeply personal ceremony - something that truly reflected us as a couple. So many of our guests have since told us how beautiful and unique it was, and how much it stood out compared to other weddings they’ve attended. What really makes Emily special is how much she genuinely cares about the people she works with. You can feel that she’s personally invested in making your day perfect.”

  • "Emily was the most amazing celebrant ever! She really went above and beyond to make our day so special. The whole process from start to finish was thoroughly enjoyable, the way she brought our love story to life, her infectious energy, the professionalism yet quirkiness was just perfect. I couldn’t recommend her more. We have also had lots of positive comments from our guests to say how fantastic she was and how much they enjoyed the ceremony. Everything was very personal and well thought through. Happiness all around, will have to get her back for our anniversary!"

  • "We cannot recommend Emily highly enough. From start to finish, she was absolutely incredible. Her attention to detail was outstanding, and she kept in touch with us throughout the entire planning process, making us feel supported and reassured every step of the way. Emily took the time to get to know us as a couple and worked closely with us to create a ceremony that felt personal, meaningful, and completely unique to us. She is so friendly, warm, and approachable, and her positive energy was infectious."

Em is really approachable, flexible and was more than happy to perform a couple of run throughs to settle the nerves. 10000% recommend!"

  • “Everyone cried and so many people came up to us afterwards to say it was the most beautiful ceremony they’ve been to. That meant so much to us because the ceremony was everything we hoped for and more - it was just authentically us and about our love.”

  • “Emily’s excitement about making sure everything is perfect is infectious and her attention to detail in the lead up to the big day was a huge help to us, so when we got to the venue on the day we knew everything would be in safe hands. The whole process was really straightforward and she had great advice and resources for us when we weren't sure where to turn. We'd recommend Emily in a heartbeat to any other couples considering a wedding celebrant!”

  • “All I can say is wow!!! Emily was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Her infectious smile and her attention to detail made our ceremony the most beautiful experience. Emily was engaging and warm with an amazing sense of humour. We couldn't have picked a better celebrant than her. Thank you so much Emily for making it a magical experience.”

  • “Emily was absolutely wonderful – she made everyone involved in the ceremony feel really welcome, relaxed and included, and she was particularly brilliant with our nieces and nephews. The ceremony itself was beautiful, with Emily wonderfully holding the space, making everyone feel part of it, while also keeping it really personal. She played a huge role in making the day so special for us!”

    Grace & David, West Sussex, March 2026

  • "Emily created a lovely bespoke ceremony for us. Neither my husband nor I think of ourselves as being particularly romantic, but Emily was able to draw out the romance from our story, whilst keeping it true to us with a touch of humour. She was so nice to work with, flexible and always professional, whilst also being personable and easy to speak to. A true delight and a wonderful ceremony!"

    Romee & Alex, Loseley Park, Surrey

  • We cannot recommend Emily highly enough, I'm so glad we found her and she could be part of our wedding. She brought such joy, laughter and ease to our wedding, and genuinely was a wonderful presence who captured exactly the feel we were hoping for. We wanted someone who could truly understand our personalities and what mattered most to us, and Emily did this perfectly. From our very first meeting, her enthusiasm and love for what she does shone through. We were looking for a ceremony that was personal, fun, and sentimental all at once (not an easy ask), and this is exactly what she gave us.
