PRICING
What will it cost us?
To be honest every wedding I get involved in is different, mainly in location, day of the week, indoor / outdoor, will I get my hair wet?
I have a pricing plan that I think is very acceptable / low cost, however I'll need the details to provide you that cost. So to make sure you get the best affordable price for your wedding ceremony, please fill out all parts of the enquiry form.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
regarding cost
What about traveling costs?
My fee is an all in fee, which is why I calculate every ceremony differently. I am based in Carrickfergus, but I am happy to travel all over the Emerald Isle of Ireland
What all does the fee include?
I suppose it's mainly split between the preparation time, making sure your application forms are good to go, the ceremony prep, all the meetings, writing up an order of service and the emails & chat with you right up the the day to get that right, and then of course the day itself.
I work very well with all wedding vendors and mainly your ceremony vendors, photographers, videographers, ceremony singers etc I'll liaise with them all on the day and we'll all work together for you.
Are there any other fee's involved in this process?
Yes, but not to me. The wedding venue's local council will also charge a £52 all in application fee to cover both application forms and to supply and send out your wedding certificate. All this is done directly with them, not me, but I'll be here to help you with that process.
Do we need to pay the full fee straight away?
No, as long as the fee is paid in full, no less than 30days before the wedding itself, that'll work for me.
Is there a booking fee?
Yes. To officially book and reserve my services for your big day is £100. You'll find booking me will be one of the easiest things you'll have done in your entire wedding planning process.
How come you're cheaper than what we we're told was the going rate for a celebrant?
I do get asked this and yes my fee is below the current 'going rate' for a celebrant. Celebrants / Humanists Registrars / Church leaders ... call us what you want, even though we provide a similar if not identical service in many ways, we all belong to different organisations, meaning we all have different rates.
However, just because my fee is lower than the current going rate, does not mean the service I provide is any less.
