Ceremonies by Nicola West

What sets me apart is my commitment to crafting one-of-a-kind ceremonies. No two celebrations are the same, because I believe in crafting each ceremony to reflect each distinct love story. With two decades of experience in the wedding industry, I have honed my skills and insights to ensure that your special day is truly remarkable.

My approach is a blend of passion, warmth, openness, calm, and humour. I understand that your wedding day should be a reflection of your unique connection, and I'm dedicated to creating a ceremony that captures the essence of your love. Let's work together to make your wedding day a memory to cherish forever.

I am deeply committed to providing a welcoming and understanding space for LGBTQIA+ couples. It's vital to me that all couples, irrespective of their identity, feel truly seen and embraced by their celebrant. Love knows no boundaries, and every love story is unique.

But, beyond the labels, many couples simply want to focus on what truly matters – the love and commitment they share. Whether it's a same-sex wedding, a heterosexual wedding, or any other variation, at its core, it's a celebration of two individuals pledging their love and lives to each other. Love unites us all, and that's the heart of the matter, isn't it? Let's celebrate love, inclusivity, and your unique journey together, without making a fuss about the labels.

When you choose me as your Wedding Celebrant, you can be assured that with an array of skills and experience along with an open and friendly personality, you and your guest will feel as of the ceremony was officiated by a friend.

I love collaborating with my couple to craft a ceremony that strikes the perfect balance between love, emotion, lighthearted humour, and, of course, the right touch of solemnity at pivotal moments in the ceremony. Ultimately, it's your day, and it's all about you! I'm here to honour your beliefs and create a wedding ceremony that truly reflects your unique love story and vision for this momentous occasion. Your Wedding Day, your way.

Everything!!

Should you decide to move forward and choose me as your Celebrant, from day one, I'm here to support you with a wealth of helpful hints and tips. Whether you're seeking suggestions for readings, assistance with crafting your own vows or considering personal touches like a special ritual,

I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Around six months before your big day, I'll send you your "Ceremony Homework", I'd also love to arrange a call or even a visit a couple of months before the ceremony. This gives us a chance to delve deeper into your  love story and understand your vision for the wedding ceremony. Once I have gathered all the necessary details, I will spend some time crafting the first draft of your ceremony script. But don't worry, I'm not just handing it over and disappearing! I'll continue to work closely with you, making any changes needed until it's absolutely perfect and reflects your vision. As your big day approaches, you can count on me to be punctual and thorough. I'll check in with your venue and liaise with any other suppliers you've arranged, such as photographers or musicians. Additionally, I'll have a quick chat with members of your wedding party, anyone doing readings and If any nerves need calming, or buttonholes need to be pinned on, I'm here for that too! When the moment arrives, the one you've been eagerly waiting for, I'll be there to officiate your bespoke ceremony with the utmost care and attention. Included in my fee:

• Crafting a beautiful, bespoke and memorable ceremony
