One of the most rewarding parts of being a celebrant is meeting couples on their wedding journey, when they’re full of excitement, questions, and sometimes a little uncertainty.
Over time, I’ve noticed some questions come up again and again. Here are a few of the most common ones answered for you.
✨ How long does a ceremony usually last?
Most ceremonies fall between 20 to 30 minutes, long enough to feel meaningful but short enough to keep everyone engaged.
✨ Do we have to write our own vows?
Nope! Some couples write their own, some choose to repeat traditional vows, and others go with a mix. I help guide you through whatever feels right.
✨ Can we include or exclude religious elements?
Absolutely! Your ceremony should reflect you, if you want religious parts, great. If not, great, we can design a ceremony that’s completely personal.
✨ What if we want something really non-traditional or unique?
Love that! I’m all about helping couples create ceremonies that break the mold and truly represent their story.
✨ Is it okay if we don’t know exactly what we want yet?
Totally normal! That’s what the planning process is for, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Every couple’s journey is different, but these questions remind me how important it is to listen, support, and make this experience as easy and joyful as possible.
