Welcome to my page! If you are scrolling these profiles then its likely you are on the path to marriage. What an exciting time and HUGE Congratulations on your engagement. Cheers!!

Me

All my friends and couples call me Chrissy but my mum still calls me Christine. I am a mum of two grown up feisty and fabulous daughters. At home with my husband Peter, I have two adorable dogs and two cats, one of which thinks he’s a dog! In my free time I love being outdoors and walking our hounds all across our beautiful little country. Nothing beats an open fire and cuddles on the settee with one or all of my critters. I enjoy wine and whiskey but learnt not to do this on the same night.

I pursued training as a Wedding Celebrant after experiencing the joy of my own Humanist wedding in 2022. We had wanted a small, untraditional, ceremony with a relaxed fun vibe, to marry at the place of our first date …and that is exactly what we got!! To be able to offer and give couples the wedding experience you want - unique to you, is a huge privilege and very exciting for me.

What I Offer

As a Humanist celebrant, I create bespoke ceremonies that are tailored for you as a couple. No copy and paste scripts here, everything is bespoke and crafted to reflect your relationship, your personalities, and your journey together. I also have experience of navigating and delivering legal and non legal weddings with International couples. From first Zoom chat to “I do,” I make planning across time zones easy, advising on the local process, paperwork, and logistics, shaping a ceremony that feels personal, warm, and beautifully you.

I can legally conduct your ceremony and guide you step-by-step, coordinating with your venue and suppliers to keep everything seamless for your destination celebration.

Whether you’re after something traditional, a bit quirky, or completely outside the box, I’ll help make your ceremony truly special and one-of-a-kind. No matter the location, whether at home, a beach, clifftop, woodland or swanky hotel. I can't wait to hear your ideas and help make them come to life.

I’m here to guide you through the whole process, offering ideas, inspiration and advice along the way. Need help writing your vows or fancy including a unique symbolic act like a hand-fasting or lighting a memory candle for those not able to be there on the day!! I got ya!!

Whatever your vision, I’ve got the knowledge and creativity to make it joyous, memorable and wonderful.

Chrissy the Celebrant was fantastic and really pulled us out of trouble last minute. From the moment we contacted her, she was immediately responsive and reassuring and couldn’t have been more supportive throughout the whole process. The help and guidance she gave us to make our ceremony our own was second to none and all of our family and guests commented on what a fabulous, personalised ceremony she provided. We really can’t recommend Chrissy enough!!

Chrissy was brilliant from start to finish. She is so personable and approachable and kept us right for the whole journey. She is so thorough and adds the loveliest of personal touches. The ceremony was absolutely amazing 🥰😍 everyone was singing her praises and raving about how incredible the ceremony was! She did such a wonderful job and we couldn’t be happier, we’re so grateful! Thank you so much!!

Where to start? Chrissy was all and more we could’ve hoped for.. she made every single aspect of our wedding so perfect. She calmed us down when we were stressed to the max, and she did whatever she could to make our lives easier! She even contacted our photographer in advance just so everyone was on the same page (which she absolutely did not have to do). We got to know Chrissy really well throughout planning our wedding and quickly discovered that she is one of the most down to earth people we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. Our ceremony was so deeply personal and exactly to the taste that we wanted (it was hilarious). After our ceremony, all we heard the rest of the evening was how beautiful, personal and humorous it was, and we couldn’t agree more with this feedback! We feel privileged and boastful that Chrissy married us, so much so that we’d nearly get divorced just to let her marry us again😂 We couldn’t think of a single fault in the entire process from start to finish. Thank you Chrissy, for going above and beyond and making the most important day of our lives more amazing and memorable than we ever could have wished for♥️♥️

Chrissy was the perfect celebrant for our wedding! After a last minute change of plans, Chrissy stepped in and saved our day. As a humanist wedding wasn't something we were familiar with we weren't sure what to expect but Chrissy made us feel completely at ease. She went above and beyond, took the time to get to know our story and worked with us to create a beautiful and personal ceremony. Her warmth and humour shone through, and so many of our guests commented on how genuine and fun it was. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better — highly recommend Chrissy!

Chrissy was everything we could have hoped for in a celebrant! Going in with no wedding knowledge she explained the process and worked with us to understand our relationship and was flexible in her approach so the wedding ceremony fit to us! The script she crafted was a perfect balance and she printed out our vows on cards to make our lives easier on the day. Thank you so much Chrissy! If we ever renew our vows we know who to call!!! P.s. our ring bearer is so happy with the toy you got her!

Chrissy, 

It was really really lovely meeting you this evening, thank you again for making the time to come and see us so late in the day. 

Just wanted to update you, after an “intensive” 30 second conversation in the car after you left, we’ve decided to cancel all other appointments and we’d LOVE to book you to marry us!  so, get that payment link sent?!  

We found you so personable and the vibe just seemed right, the craic and conversation just flowed - in Chris’s words “I was waiting for her to go to the bathroom, so I could say to you “shall we just book her right now?”! 

Thank you again

— Stephen & Christopher
