I specialise in creative theatrical ceremonies
Hi, I'm Harriet
I am a creative theatrical celebrant that can write and deliver a completely unique ceremony designed just for you…. I’m energetic, spontaneous and calm in a crisis. I create fun, vibrant ceremonies for those who want something personal and fancy something a little different from the norm… Let’s think outside of the box!
“So your name is Harriet, why is your business called Phoebe Smith Ceremonies?” So glad you asked… Phoebe is a family name, passed down to each first-born female child. So, when starting this new venture, I chose to use the name, feeling like I have those generations of women behind me. I’m happy to be called either!
What's my ceremony style?
I have spent my life working in performing arts as a performer, director, writer, project manager and teacher. I LOVE to be creative and I like nothing more than captivating an audience, taking them on an emotional journey. I live for making people smile. (It’s an ethos of mine, I try every day. A moment of kindness costs nothing but it’s effect can be priceless)
My aim is to make your ceremony perfect. Use of voice and presence I think is key, us actors have all the skills needed to be vocally charismatic varying pitch and tone, with creative timing knowing where and when to use pace and pause, to lift a room or give a moment reverence. Let’s leave bland behind, add some original flavour…

Why choose Harriet for your wedding?
Wonderful words from one of my gorgeous couples…
“Harriet was brilliant, so personal and loving but also hilarious at times a perfect analogy of our relationship. The guests were laughing and crying throughout the ceremony. So many of our guests were amazed at how lovely it was, with all saying it was the best ceremony they’d ever been to.
Harriet is not only professional, she listens and understood what not only what our relationships is like but how different we are. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect ceremony!”
Naming Ceremonies
A child entering the world is given a name specially selected by meaning or tradition, taking a moment to celebrate this life in a celebration can be a joyous event. If you are not religious this can be a wonderful opportunity for chosen guide parents to be included.
However, we can change our name at any point in our life….
Celebrate a new you… a new life… These key moments we share with our friends and family can be celebrated in any way you choose.
My prices start from £300 however as with all of my services, a bespoke package can be created. Please contact me for a quote.
