Celebrant in Cornwall

Will you write the service for me?

Of course! That's half the reason why you book us!

Can we write our own ceremony or vows?

We definitely encourage you to write your own vows - in fact we have a little guide we'll send you to help you do this!

Is there anything that has to be included in a service?

Nope. It's a blank sheet of paper - but given that we've performed 100s of these, we'll have lots of ideas for you!

Do you cater for LGBTQ+ weddings?

Of course - why wouldn't we?!

Do you need to meet us before the wedding day?

Most of our clients live out of Cornwall, so video calling is our best friend! However if you live locallly, or you're bombing down the A30 on hols, we'd love to meet you for a cuppa or a glass of wine!

What do your prices start at?

An elopement for two In Cornwall is priced at £600 - a larger gathering is £700 (2023 prices).

How far in advance should I book you?

If you are hoping for a Saturday in the summer, then ideally 8 - 12 months before - although one couple once booked us four years in advance!

What’s the difference between a celebrant and a registrar?

A registrar will complete the legal part of your marriage. A registrar works for local government in the Register Office or traveling to approved venues - and confusingly some of them call themselves celebrants! A simple legal ceremony can be completed in as little as ten minutes for around £50 (plus notice fees). Our couples generally choose to do this legal paperwork before their celebrant-led ceremony – enabling them to plan and enjoy their celebratory ceremony exactly as they choose, without any restrictions from the local authority. PS. If you are renewing your vows - this is not a legal event anyway, so you should definitely book a celebrant for maximum fun and flexibility rather than book a Registrar ceremony!

Which areas of the UK do you cover?

Well, as the name suggests, we are based in beautiful Cornwall - but we regularly and happily travel to ceremonies in Devon, Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire. We charge a little extra for ceremonies outside our home county as travel can really impact on time - and of course there is a mileage fee to factor in.

Do you offer a rehearsal?

Generally, we don’t, as firstly, we want to keep all of the magic for your big day, and secondly, we just don’t think it's necessary. We go over all the logistics in advance, so you will feel super-calm and super-prepared. On the day we arrive in good time to make sure everything runs to plan. But if your ceremony turns out to be a more complex event, and you (or we) think a rehearsal would be a good idea, it can be arranged (for an additional cost).

Are you insured?

Oh yes! We have insurance with an indemnity level of £4,000,000 which includes professional, public and products liability. A copy of our certificate can be produced on request (some venues require this as part of their booking process).
