I had the pleasure of officiating at the wedding ceremony for Carri and Matt, just over a week ago. Another village hall on Gower for me!This was quite the story, with a broken leg leading to the start of this pair's adventures! Tales were told of their camping and campervan trips, the love and laughter they share, drinking old fashioneds in Sweden and an advent calendar proposal. We had two beautiful readings, a handfasting with ribbons proudly bound by nephews and nieces, and the most heartfelt of vows. To bring the ceremony to a close, Carri and Matt walked through an honour guard with a traditional sword arch, to the cheers and applause from their family and friends.A ceremony to remember 🥰It was great to work with @scoularfishphotography and I'm looking forward to sharing photographs from her soon.In the meantime, if you are thinking of a diy wedding that tells your story, do get in touch#thegowercelebrant #gowerweddings #swanseaweddings #villagehallweddings #humanistceremonies #humanistwedding #humanistcelebrant #diywedding

I'm a great advocate for couples marrying in a place that is important to them. Last weekend was filled with two ceremonies, both using a village hall on Gower.
The first was at Port Eynon for the wedding of Eleanor and Stephen. The transformation of the hall from plain function room to beautiful ceremony space, by family and friends, was nothing short of amazing!This gorgeous couple threw the rule book out of the window, arriving with the guests and mingling with a glass of bubbly before the ceremony started, creating the most relaxed atmosphere.A ceremony telling their unique love story, including a ring warming and a handfasting.The love shared by this couple and the love from their close family and friends, filled the hall - it was a perfect celebration.Can't wait to see the photos from the fab @tiasandryphotography and hope to share them with you soon.#thegowercelebrant

It was great to receive the following feedback aft

It was great to receive the following feedback after sending on the first draft of a ceremony script to E and S a few weeks ago.We've now worked on the script together, fine-tuning it until it's absolutely perfect for this couple. After much deliberation, we've also added a ring warming and a handfasting.The ceremony is now only two and a half weeks away and I can't wait!If you'd like a chat about a personalised, humanist wedding ceremony that puts you and your love story at the heart of your celebrations, and that allows you to be involved in its creation, please get in touch, I'd love to hear from you.#thegowercelebrant #gowerwedding #swanseawedding #humanistwedding #humanistcelebrant #humanistceremonies #personalisedwedding

Happy Anniversary to one of the loveliest couples I know ❤️. I can't believe a year has gone by since their ceremony on the beach with their closest family.I have the pleasure of living in the same community as this gorgeous pair and am lucky enough to see them regularly, so we get the chance to remember the ceremony often.It was such a privilege to be trusted to tell their story.#thegowercelebrant #gowerwedding #beachwedding #swanseawedding #humanistceremonies #humanistwedding #humanistcelebrant

I had the privilege of officiating at a handfastin

I had the privilege of officiating at a handfasting ceremony a few weeks ago. One of the many advantages of a humanist ceremony is that it can take place anywhere that is important to a couple.For M & S, this was a motorcycle rally on the beautiful Gower peninsula. M is now president of the club and S has attended the rally every year with her family.An intimate ceremony for this couple and their closest family and friends, with words written to express their love for each other and their journey together, ending with a handfasting to symbolise and celebrate their union.A joyful day, complete with Viking costume and replica swords!If you'd like to plan a wedding ceremony in a place that's important to you, please get in touch for more details.Photo credit: Ben Hinchliffe @hinch.snaps#thegowercelebrant

It was wonderful to receive an email from J&H afte

It was wonderful to receive an email from J&H after their gorgeous ceremony at @kingarthurhotel last month.Yes, J&H were very much at the centre of their ceremony, but it's great to hear that their guests enjoyed it too. They were invited for a reason - family and friends are so important to this couple. To be able to make it memorable for them too, is beyond satisfying and reviews like this make my day!If you're looking for a meaningful and memorable ceremony for you and your guests too, please get in touch for more details.#thegowercelebrant #gowerwedding #swanseawedding #humanistwedding #humanistceremonies #humanistcelebrant

A personal, unique ceremony, all about the two of you - your day, your way.
