WEDDING CELEBRANT ESSEX
I absolutely love Weddings! So what a perfect job it is being a Wedding Celebrant! I have been in the Wedding Industry for over 12 years now & have worked with the most amazing couples in beautiful venues from stunning Stately Homes to intimate Woodland settings.
I would love the opportunity to help you create the Wedding you deserve from writing to conducting your bespoke Ceremony

One of the most important roles of a Wedding Celebrant is to bring your story to life & this is where I step in! I’m a trained actress with over 25 years experience including appearing in numerous TV series, commercials & theatre! I even had a song on a Double Platinum Album but I promise not to sing it at your Ceremony!!! I also work as a Presenter & have interviewed many interesting people from Danny Dyer to Olivia Newton John!
I have a very lively 9 year old daughter & husband Liam who is a film & documentary maker. We love going to the seaside, travelling & spending time with friends! Family is very Important to me,
Life is about memories so let’s start creating them now together! I can’t wait to hear from you – do get in touch & I will get straight back to you!

Are Celebrant Weddings Legal?
Independent celebrants like me cannot perform legally binding weddings in the UK (this may change soon!) however Couples consider the day they host their celebrant ceremony to be their “real” wedding day, not the day of the formal registration.
So how I get the Legal bit done?
All that is required is that you both make the standard legal declarations and register your marriage with a registrar. You can do this either before or after your wedding day at your local registry office. It takes about 15 minutes and can cost from £46 plus the cost of the marriage certificate (usually £11). You will need two witnesses for the marriage ceremony (no witnesses are required for a civil partnership registration)
Humanist celebrants who are accredited by Humanists UK are able to perform legally binding weddings in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Jersey but currently are not legally recognised in England and Wales.
‘We knew we wanted humour & everyone to have fun! April was able to work with us & guide us with her knowledge & ideas! We loved the ceremony, our guests & family loved it too! What a Day! What wonderful memories! Thank you April’
