Hi, I'm Hannah

Image of Hannah Bryant

Hello, my name is Hannah, and I am a trained and fully accredited Humanist's UK Wedding Celebrant.

I live in South Wales with my wife and our cheeky dogs, Betty and Frank.

I officiate ceremonies across South Wales but also travel further afield and abroad. 

I am a part-time nurse practitioner and educationalist when not planning or officiating at ceremonies.

I thrive under pressure and have a keen eye for detail.

I am warm, approachable, and a good listener, with a natural ability to put people at ease during stressful situations.

I believe we should live life to the full, helping others along the way. 

Being a celebrant gives me a wonderful opportunity to use the life skills I have gained in nursing and education to help people mark one of life's most important milestones.

I have always loved weddings, whether small and intimate or bursting at the seams, with friends and family from far and wide. 

I enjoy the creative aspect of writing each unique ceremony to suit the style and beliefs of the couple I work with.

I am an efficient communicator who can be relied upon to keep the couple in touch with how a ceremony is progressing.

I have vast public speaking experience and can assure you that every ceremony I conduct will be delivered to a high standard.

Hannah was amazing. From the moment we met her to the ceremony, she made us feel comfortable, understood and treated us like family. The day was perfect in every way. She guided us beautifully. Thank you Hannah. We will always treasure the memory of our wedding.

— Dali and Maz

Hannah was flexible, supportive, informative and beyond anything, determined to make our ceremony completely unique and about us. She really guided us through our avoidance of tradition and genuinely took time to get to know us. One of the least stressful elements of the whole wedding! Can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Hannah, you gave us something so personal and special, we were lucky to have found you.

— Sally and Andy

Hannah was amazing she help create and make our ideas come to life for our wedding day. She was extremely professional and in depth while helping us think about things we didn't consider. Her kindness and gentle calming attitude was fantastic, and we couldn't have asked for a better celebrant to help us. Just a lovely person inside and out and a breath of fresh air. Thank you so much Hannah for create an amazing ceremony for us.

— Emma and Chris

Hannah was so warm, kind and professional. She helped us to craft our perfect day and understood exactly what we wanted. She was such a calm supportive presence throughout the process and on the day.

— Pauline and Rob

Hannah was amazing, from the start Hannah put us at ease. She listened to who we were which made our ceremony so special. As a gay couple we were 100% respected, our pronouns were considered, at each step we felt safe in Hannah's hands.

— Sarah and Charl

Hannah was just incredible. We were recommended to her by our wedding venue. From the moment we started talking to her we knew she would create something special. And we weren’t wrong. Hannah created the perfect personal ceremony and we cannot thank her enough.

— James and Hayley

Hannah was incredibly kind, thoughtful and supportive throughout the whole process of creating and delivering our ceremony. This turned into a long process because of the pandemic, as we had to postpone twice. Every so often, Hannah checked in on us to see how we were, and even sent us a congratulatory card when we bought our house. She also sent us an acknowledgement on what would have been our original wedding day, which we found very thoughtful. These personal touches made a big difference. The planning of the ceremony itself felt well-structured and personal. Hannah met with us virtually to get to know us better and what we wanted from our ceremony and gave us a questionnaire to fill out to learn more about us as a couple. She translated our ideas into a fully formed ceremony that we were very happy with on the day. When we finally got to meet her on the day of the wedding, she was kind, warm and welcoming and helped to alleviate our nerves. She delivered a very personal ceremony that was unique to us. Extra touches, like Hannah making a personalised oak leaf for our outdoor wedding, made it even more special. We received many compliments from friends and family on how beautiful and personal the ceremony was. It was everything we'd wanted and we're incredibly thankful that we chose Hannah to be our celebrant.

— Owen and Rian

Hannah has been a shining light throughout all of our wedding planning - after our first zoom call we knew we had made the right choice - calm, collected and she totally got us. That showed in the fact that when we received our first draft of our ceremony the only real changes we had to make were to things that had actually changed in the time between us meeting. Hannah kindly agreed to move our ceremony due to the pandemic and not only that, she did so foregoing her own wedding anniversary/birthday weekend. Hannah remained in touch with us regularly in the lead up to the wedding and we never had any doubts that she would plan the perfect ceremony for us - she answered every one of our (many) questions in the lead up and gave us so many hints and tips to make sure everything went to plan - even when the weather for our outdoor wedding was going awry. On the day Hannah was just amazing - keeping the groom calm and talking through our options when the weather was turning and then adapting the ceremony to make sure that we could go ahead with it outside without risking a very wet wedding party. The script was perfect and so personal, just as we wanted. We can safely say there was not a dry eye in the place. We could not have had a better celebrant and we would recommend her to anyone who needed one. A huge shout out to all the frontline work she has been doing as well - just a wonderful person through and through.

— Beth and Pete

Hannah was fabulous, right from the beginning, her attention to detail made our day so personal to us and we couldn’t have asked for more. Hannah is warm, caring and compassionate, nothing was too much trouble for her.

— Paul and Terry

Hannah was amazing. She was with us through every step of the journey and truly made our special day as special as it was. Before we even confirmed our booking she had sent over some information on a sand ceremony that we had mentioned we wanted to include. She was open to our strange requests like adding film quotes into her script (and then watching said film so she could understand our reference..!). She did such a fantastic job with the script - it was everything we wanted and Hannah had done such a good job of translating our ideas into a coherent and enjoyable ceremony. She had invited us over to chat through our ideas, and a few months later came around to the ceremony site to get a better feel of the place (which gave us another chance to play with her lovely dogs!). From the start she was wonderful, thorough and conciensous, and on the day was so warm and kind and made all our guests feel welcome, and put us at ease. Can’t recommend booking her enough!

— Josh and Jules

Hannah has been incredible during this process. When our initial 2020 date had to be rearranged she went above and beyond to mark the occasion. Even during the pandemic she would keep in touch to check in on us. When we had longer chats to create our ceremony they were never rushed and you could really tell Hannah wanted as much information as possible to make the occasion special. During the entire process Hannah has been thoroughly professional. Any requests we had were never too much trouble and the ceremony reflected that. Many of our guests commented on how lovely the ceremony was and how unique it was. We cannot speak highly enough of Hannah and the service she provided.

— Martin and Yael

As our wedding celebrant Hannah provided excellent support, advice, and guidance throughout the planning of our ceremony. Hannah explained clearly the ceremony planning process, helping us to craft a unique and individual wedding ceremony. Hannah provided regular check-in points to make sure that we were comfortable with the content of our ceremony. Hannah was both patient and empathic when 'life' events resulted in a delay in us providing information. Hannah's experience of weddings was invaluable in helping us to make key decisions, avoid pitfalls, and remain within budget. Hannah used her knowledge of us as a couple to suggest appropriate rituals and readings that suited us. In essence Hannah helped us to create a personal ceremony. On our wedding day Hannah arrived at the venue in plenty of time and met with us ahead of the ceremony for an informal chat which put us at ease. Our guests commented on Hannah's clear delivery style during the ceremony. Hannah’s expertise as a celebrant made us feel relaxed and in safe hands throughout the process. We would not hesitate in recommending Hannah as a wedding celebrant 😊

— Carlton and Richard

My Wife fell seriously ill and I had a big task ahead of me to arrange our wedding day. I found Hannah through a recommendation and I was so pleased I had found her. Hannah was efficient in creating our personal script, and I was very much taken aback by it all, we will never forget our special day, given the Covid restrictions that were in place. Thank you very much for making the day so memorable.

— Mandeep and Indi

I can’t say enough positives about our ceremony conducted and written by Hannah. Absolutely everyone who came to the wedding said how beautiful the ceremony was and how perfectly tailored it was to us. Not only will we cherish the memories of the day itself forever, but we thoroughly enjoyed the process of meeting with Hannah and giving her the information for our ceremony, it was such an enjoyable process! We can’t thank Hannah enough for making the most special day of our lives even more personal and everything we had hoped for. Hannah - you are a star! Cannot recommend Hannah as a celebrant enough - if you’re wondering, then definitely get booked in!!

— Chloe and James

Hannah made our day special and exactly how we wanted it, Hannah even made us our own hand fasting braided ribbons :)
