FAQS

FAQs

  • Firstly, contact me via my website, email or insta and we’ll book an initial no obligation face to face or zoom meeting to discuss your wedding plans and the options available.

    Then you book me! Great choice! I take a 50% deposit to secure your date.

    Eight weeks before the big day I take the remaining balance send you a couples questionnaire to fill out and then I’ll get cracking on draft one. I aim to have the first draft back to you six weeks before the ceremony and between us we can tweak the Ceremony until we get it exactly how you want it.

  • Of course! If there are any other elements that you would like to add to the ceremony just let me know. Readings, symbolic actions, music, interpretive dance, It’s your day and you can do exactly what you want, I may have some ideas for additions to your day that you just LOVE!

  • I suggest having one read through prior to the ceremony so everyone knows what to do and where to stand, anymore than one and I find it takes away some of the spontaneous magic ;)

    If you are having an official wedding rehearsal a day or so prior to the ceremony I can attend for the additional cost of £100.

  • If you tell me the theme/colour scheme of your special day I will do my best to match it. I can send you a few snaps to show you what i’m thinking.

  • I have the packages below but if you want something bespoke let me know and I’ll quote for it:

    Package 1 - Chapel of love - £650 - To include:

    - Up to 3 planning meetings including one at your venue.

    - Liaising with your venue and other key suppliers (photographer, musicians, venue dresser, wedding planner)

    - A bespoke personalised script telling your love story that showcases your personality.

    - Unlimited script revisions.

    - Ongoing telephone, whatsapp and email support.

    - Wedding certificate to sign on the ceremony day if required.

    - A copy of your ceremony script post ceremony if required.

    Package 2 - I do I do I do I do - £800

    As above plus 4-5 planning meetings if required and:

    - A symbolic action such as handfasting, ring warming, candle ceremony or sand ceremony (more symbolic actions available, just ask!)

    - Help with choosing reading(s) and/or writing vows.

    - The option to have family/friends add their memories and messages by contacting me beforehand.

    - The above plus me acting as your MC for your reception, announcing where guests need to be and when, introducing the couple to the wedding breakfast, introducing speeches and first dance.

    Wedding rehearsal - Additional £100.

    Equally I can create a bespoke package just for you to include any elements from the above and any other ideas you may have.

    I will flag to you if any additional costs are due, eg: travel - If your ceremony location is more than 30 miles from where I am based I charge 50p mile beyond that point.

    If you require specific props or items for your ceremony I can provide these at a cost.

    I will let you know all costs up front so there are no surprises.

    I take a 50% non refundable deposit at the time of booking to secure your date, the remainder of the fee is due 8 weeks before the ceremony.

  • I am based in North East Kent but I am happy to travel to wherever your wedding celebration ceremony location is. I charge 50 pence per mile beyond 30 miles of where I am based if it is a location I can reasonably travel to and back within a day.

    I am happy to travel anywhere in the UK or internationally but travel and accommodation costs must be covered by yourselves, this can be discussed in greater detail.

  • Yes please! Of all varieties! My first 2 Celebrant led Wedding Celebration ceremonies were LGBTQIA+ and they rocked my world!

    (I hope this would be a given but I wanted to state this to confirm)

  • I am not religious myself but I am happy to include religious elements in the Ceremony within reason.

    Full religious ceremonies should be organised by the relevant religious organisation.

  • Yes! As well as Wedding celebration ceremonies I can conduct the following:

    Civil partnership celebration ceremonies

    Commitment ceremonies

    Renewal of vows ceremony

    Naming ceremonies

    Funerals

    If you have a Ceremony in mind ask me! I am sure to be able to create a ceremony that ticks all your boxes

  • Yes! I am a member of the AOIC (Association of Independent Celebrants) so I have public liability and professional indemnity insurance.

Testimonials

Jo & Lizzie

“Vicky was such an important part of our day. She understood exactly what we needed from a ceremony and then floated in with a fabulous outfit and lifted the ceremony to a new level. She made us and our guests feel at ease and had us all laughing and crying. I wouldn’t change a thing about our experience. Thank you Vicky!”

Ian & Aarron

“Vicky was amazing, when the beach ceremony was washed out, she adapted to the situation with all smiles and jumped on stage to give our ceremony her all!”
