Hello there and huge congratulations on your engagement!

I'm Mair, a trusted and experienced South London wedding celebrant originally from south Wales.

Your humanist wedding ceremony will truly reflect your personality and values as a couple, with a warm and authentic tone of voice.

I specialise in bilingual wedding ceremonies in French and Welsh, and I'd be more than happy to discuss the practicalities of organising a bilingual wedding ceremony with you.

"We felt in incredibly safe hands with Mair from the start. The day was very meaningful and exactly what we wanted."

— Natasha, September 2025

"Working with Mair to create our bespoke, bilingual wedding ceremony has been an absolute blast from start to finish. In our first meeting, Mair was charming and friendly and put us immediately at ease. Throughout the process, she put so much effort into crafting a ceremony that was hyper-personalised. She was super welcoming of feedback and it really felt like working in tandem with her. And without surprise, the ceremony was the cherry on top - Mair was eloquent, engaging and mastered both languages to perfection. Our ceremony was a first for many of our guests who were used to more traditional weddings and they all said it was one of the highlights of the day. It definitely was for us. Merci Mair!

— Justine & Ben, May 2025

“Mair is not only a lovely, warm person but was always so professional and made our whole experience preparing for our ceremony feel seamless and really made us feel at ease. The ceremony itself (in French and English) was beautiful and everything we could have hoped for. We felt Mair really went above and beyond to make sure everything ran well and that the ceremony was an accurate and personal reflection of our relationship. Thanks very much to Mair and we would definitely recommend her to others.”

— Anna & Cedric, September 2023

"So glad we booked Mair. Very lovely and very easy to speak to. We wanted a personal and short ceremony and Mair delivered it just perfectly. Communication was great, Mair is very friendly, warm, soft spoken and professional. She made our big day even more special and I would recommend Mair to anyone who wants a wedding to feel real and truly theirs. Having a celebrant at our wedding was without a doubt the best decision ever, all the guests agreed! Thank you Mair xx"
