Hi, I'm Sarah Jayne
Straight off the bat, it’s not about me. Your ceremony will be bespoke to you.
But, just so you have a bit of background on the person you’re entrusting your special occasion to, here’s my brief story.
I’m married to Chris and we have a very cheeky son, Walter. I was born and bred in the North West and have Filipino heritage.
I’ve spent more than 14 years in the TV industry, in the galleries of ITV and BBC, as a director and vision mixer. So, you might say, I know how to put on a show. I have acting credits too, so I feel at ease in front of a crowd.
Thank you for considering me to handle your ceremony. It would be my honour to be part of it.
What's my ceremony style?
If you want to walk down the aisle to ACDC or ABBA, include readings from Disney films or incorporate a family tradition, I will make it happen. I will listen to your wishes and incorporate everything to give you a unique, bespoke and personalised ceremony.
So, if you want flexibility over where you have your ceremony (with me it can be anywhere!), no limitations when it comes to the content of your service (traditional, modern, funny, the choice is yours!), then please get in touch.
Don’t be afraid to think outside the box, I will most certainly encourage you to do so!
Prices From
Weddings from £475, Vow Renewals from £350, Naming Days from £300, Celebration of Life from £250
Why choose Sarah Jayne?
I’ll always be professional, diligent and be here to listen to whatever ideas you have.
Everything I write will be meaningful to you and I hope that the small part I play will allow you to create lasting memories that you can look back on in years to come.
What do I offer?
Weddings
Let me help you create your vision. I will write and conduct a bespoke ceremony which represents you both as individuals, but also shows your harmony and unity as a couple. You may want to include religious elements or none at all. Include your family traditions, heritage, favourite music. Write your own vows or let me help you. There’s no limit to your imagination when you’re planning your special day.
If you need an extra helping hand, I’m also available to stay on after your wedding ceremony to act as your wedding host. I’ll introduce the speeches, announce the cutting of the cake, the first dance and help your photographer gather in the guests for the all-important picture opportunities.
And if you aren’t doing any of the above but you’d like me to round everyone up to play some games, shout that the food is ready or getting the party well and truly started then you can count on me!

Naming Ceremonies
A naming ceremony is a wonderful way of welcoming a new baby. It can also be a lovely occasion to welcome step or adoptive children into the family. Parents, relatives and friends can all be involved and the ceremony can be wherever you like. Whether that be at home in the garden, a favourite restaurant or a community hall. The choice is yours and that’s not just with the venue. You can select music, readings and symbolic elements for a truly unique day. Please get in touch, I’d love to chat more.

Relive those precious moments of when you first met, the engagement and all the fantastic memories you’ve made as a couple.
Walk down the aisle again in front of all your guests or keep things intimate.
However you choose to do it, I’ll be there to guide, support and advise.

Together and in your own time we can create a fitting tribute to your loved one.
It can be non-religious, semi religious or spiritual if you wish. I will be by your side to assist you with selecting readings, poems and music.
I can help you write words of remembrance that you will share at the ceremony, or I can read them if you prefer.
On the day I will conduct the ceremony with warmth, respect and compassion.
