Hi, I'm Beth
Your trusted Sussex Celebrant.
All ceremonies have people and love at their heart; it is what makes each one totally unique. You don’t have to do anything weird or whacky; you can be inspired by traditions and still have a totally personal and meaningful ceremony which will be enjoyed and remembered for all the RIGHT reasons.
Allow me the honour of hearing your story and bringing it to life. You will feel seen, heard and understood; I will take the time to understand what makes your story special and how we can best represent that within your perfect ceremony.
Get in touch today and we will achieve it together.
What's my ceremony style?
Warm, fun and inclusive!!
Your ceremony will be laced with laughter, possibly some tears, charm, cheer and pure joy! Your guests will feel relaxed and ready to have fun. Your ceremony will be the unexpected highlight that kickstarts conversations for the rest of the day!
I will take the time to get to know you as individuals and as a couple; what you love about each other, your hopes (and possibly fears) for the future and use all of these to craft your ceremony. A ceremony you and your guests will all enjoy rather than endure and which will be totally unforgettable. It will be unique, personal, meaningful, fun and fabulous…it will be the talking point of whatever you plan for the rest of your day.

Highlight
Why choose Beth?
You will be in safe hands. You will feel supported and guided through the process of planning your ceremony. My experience and professional training will ensure the stress is taken away from creating and delivering the perfect ceremony for you and your loved ones.
You will benefit from my years of experience delivering successful events; your event will run effortlessly and smoothly, it will be enjoyed by you and your guests from start to finish. Your friends and family will be welcomed and relaxed before any proceedings begin and I will help them to shrug off any stuffiness, to ensure that they enjoy rather than endure the ceremony that then unfolds.
What do I offer?
Weddings
Do you love the outdoors and all it has to offer; whether that is adventure, tranquility or freedom? Why not embrace the beauty nature with a totally bespoke outdoor ceremony.
Whether you swiped right or met in a more old fashioned way – you have a story to share! I will tell that story and it will create a magical moment which you share with all of your guests. It will be a deeply personal reflection of you and your union – your loves and dreams, your hopes and possibly fears and it will remain indelibly marked in the memory of all of your guests…for all the RIGHT reasons!
If you want to create a ceremony with heart and soul, which shrugs off the impersonal elements of a template marriage while maintaining a sense of occasion, which captivates everyone in attendance and kicks off your day in style – get in touch!

With the stress and worry taken away, you will enjoy the process of planning your perfect ceremony! Couples often say they feel like they have gained a friend….who is there to greet them at the end of the aisle on their big day!!
Naming Ceremonies
Naming ceremonies are a fresh but meaningful way to welcome a new member of a family. Often we think of them as an alternative to a Christening for new babies, but they are suitable for children of all ages, adopted children, the joining of two families or perhaps the affirmation of a new person in the case of gender reassignment. All of these are great milestones which call for celebration!

Whatever it is that you are looking to achieve, I will listen to you, offer my advice if needed and make sure that we create the perfect ceremony together.
Renewal of Vows
There are many reasons why you may want to renew your vows; a milestone anniversary, re-honouring your commitment to each other, doing things a bit differently from the first time or just because you want to celebrate your relationship all over again! Whatever the reason, let’s work together to create the perfect ceremony to mark this important occasion; the perfect reflection of you both, the lives you have lived together so far and the future you look forward to.

My style is traditional at heart but with a modern approach; I am very comfortable including elements of faith, should this be important to you.
You may know exactly what you would like, or you may feel totally overwhelmed with the thought of organising someone’s final farewell. I am here to help support and guide you. I will provide a safe space and total flexibility to ensure that whatever choices you make, we create the best possible ceremony for your loved one.

The best part of our day!
Choosing Beth to be our celebrant was easily one of the single best decisions we made for our wedding.
Having waited 13 years before getting married, my now-husband and I wanted our ceremony to be special, meaningful and go some way to capture the life we’ve lived together so far. It was important that the “formal” part of our day was just as enjoyable for us and our guests as the rest of the party, and that our officiant added to the warmth and character of our celebration.
And Beth absolutely knocked it out the park!
Working with Beth was seamless – her communication was exceptional, and her process (and outstanding people skills) meant she quickly recognised what made us tick as a couple, and she offered us lots of guidance, prompts and suggestions to create a ceremony that felt incredibly true to “us”. She nailed her script in one go – I cried the first time she read it through for us! – and perfectly struck the balance of humour and sincerity we were looking for.
Beth was a wonderful presence on our wedding day, and helped us both let go of the last-minute jobs that needed doing and just be present. Our ceremony will forever be one of our favourite memories of the day, and we lost count of how many guests said the same – that it was the best wedding service they’d ever witnessed, that Beth was absolutely brilliant, and that it was the perfect rollercoaster of laughter and tears.
I cannot talk highly enough of Beth and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a celebrant.
Amazing
Beth was professional, precise, understanding, caring with a smile and has the patience to calm any situation. We were more than lucky to find her.
The additional help on the morning of our wedding was so helpful and comforting. To have someone who was on the same page as us was so refreshing!
Beth – You are amazing in your role and you are an incredible person.
Thank you so much for helping to make our day perfect!
An absolute joy to work with!
Beth was the celebrant for our wedding and an absolute joy work with. From our very first call, she was so warm and engaged, brilliantly guiding us through the process of shaping the wedding ceremony into something that felt deeply personal for both of us. She has a wonderful energy and always made us feel happy and calm – both in the planning stages and on the big day. Would highly recommend.
