Hi, I'm Leni

If you want a ceremony thats full of warmth, humour, and really tells your story then I’m the girl for you!

I create personal, bespoke ceremonies that really focus on the person or people at the heart of the ceremony. By getting to know you and what makes you tick I can create a ceremony that celebrates you, whether that’s a naming ceremony, wedding, or celebration of life. I also do a line in ‘Birthday roasts’ for those big occasions where you want something a little different!

I’m up for almost anything, if it helps show everyone who you are then bring it on! My second ever ceremony was for Don’t Tell The Bride so I’m used to thinking on my feet and coping in any situation.

I’ve been involved in the wedding industry in one way or another for over 20 years so have a list of preferred suppliers so can recommend the best in the business to work with. I think that it’s not just talent but personality that makes people work well together, so they are all jolly nice people too!

I was a regional finalist in the Wedding Industry Awards 2020, and nominated for Best Celebrant in the Celebrant Awards for 2 years running.

I am the founder of Coffin Club Derby and a Grief Recovery Specialist which enables me to support people when they are grieving and work with families to create the celebration of life that they feel is right for the person they know best.

What's my ceremony style?

I will work with you to create the ceremony you want. Any style and theme is welcome here and I will join in as much or as little as you want me too. I can include religion or keep the ceremony totally secular. It’s your story, let me help you tell it.

Weddings

Couples who like laughter, warmth and really want to put their own spin on their ceremony are right up my Diagon alley. I love getting into a theme, but am a big believer in love being the greatest story, so work really hard to get to know what makes you tick.

I have two packages on offer, Script only (£300) and Full service. The Full service includes

♥ Initial discovery meeting where I get to know all about you both, discuss symbolic elements and we can eat cake!
♥ Support with readings and poems
♥ A WhatsApp group for you to stay in touch
♥ Zooms as you need them including individual catch-ups for secret vow plotting!
♥ Bespoke script writing including reviews and editing
♥ Conducting the ceremony; exclusivity on your wedding day, including arrival 1 hour before, calming nerves and unlimited waiting because if you can’t be late on your wedding day……..
♥ Personalised reading cards, certificate, vow booklets that all tie in with your invites

♥ An awful lot of fun!

Why choose Leni for your wedding?

I can only say what the families and couples I am lucky enough to work with say. I am warm, caring, and will bring the right amount of humour to the occasion as is warranted. I am there for you all the way, and walk any journey you are taking.

From handfastings, to cocktail ceremonies, from potion classes to sand blending, symbolic elements are chosen to reflect you.

I’m happy to work with animals and children, in fact hearing that doggies are welcomed makes me do my happy dance! I’ll also dress up to tie in with a theme and make sure there are no awkward suits ruining the vibe!

Renewal of Vows

A wedding isn’t the end of the journey but rather the beginning of one and taking the opportunity to mark a point on that journey is more than just a good excuse for a party. A renewal of vows is an opportunity to remember why you chose your lobster, and why you want to continue to walk this road with them.

You can reaffirm your rings, or you can buy new ones, you can have bridesmaids or you can walk in together. There are so many options available to you and a renewal of vows shows how you’ve grown as a couple and shares it with those you love.

I have two packages on offer, Script only (£300) and Full service. The Full service includes

♥ Initial discovery meeting where I get to know all about you both, discuss symbolic elements and we can eat cake!
♥ Support with readings and poems
♥ A WhatsApp group for you to stay in touch

Amazing celebrant. Kind, informed & friendly. Fun & professional. Provided a tailored service, suiting our individual needs & preferences but also balancing a service that included the audience. Puts you at ease and certainly made a day to remember.

Leni ‘held’ us in her arms every step of the way. Enveloping us in her care and compassion, she listened intently to ensure every detail was just right. She brought love, creativity and beauty to the darkest time of our lives. One of the hardest things about neonatal loss is that there are so few stories to tell. Leni helped us to remember the journey we had shared with Tilly since learning of her impending arrival. She helped our family and friends to celebrate the gift, the miracle, the blessing I had waited my whole life for. She taught us the beginnings of how to move forward with our baby girl in our hearts.

There is no doubt in my mind that Leni was always meant to be doing this work – she personifies one of Maya Angelou’s most famous quotes: ‘I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.’ And for that I will be eternally grateful.

Leni!
Hope you don’t mind me messaging you about today!
I have to say you were simply wonderful!
You guided everybody through what must have been one of the most difficult ceremonies anyone has ever attended and you did it with great professionalism, care and sympathy for everyone involved.
It was both a truly beautiful and heart rending ceremony
Thank you so much for today.
Much love!
