Weddings

You're about to say "I do"

Many congratulations!

As a true romantic, there’s nothing I like better than hearing how your love story started and continued to the day you decided to say, “I do.”

The advantage of having a celebrant-led ceremony is the freedom to celebrate in a style that suits you at a venue of your choice and to personalise everything that shows your personality and brings out your romantic, fun-loving side.

Once we’ve met and you have both shared your own individual stories of why and how your love for each other grew, we can plan and prepare a wonderful celebration, whether it’s a marriage, a civil partnership, or a commitment ceremony.

Currently, celebrant-led wedding ceremonies in England and Wales are not legally binding.

However, you can arrange a simple “2+2” ceremony at your local registry office where you and two witnesses can make the necessary legal declarations and have your marriage registered for a minimal cost.

With the formalities done, I can then step in to create a magical, memorable marriage ceremony unique to you both.

This is when you can exchange your vows and rings, factor in any religious aspects you may want to have, carry out wedding rituals, include family and friends for readings or poems, and choose your special music to have the day of your dreams.

A celebration that you can keep in your hearts forever after.

Writing Vows ~ £150

Weddings/Commitment Ceremonies/Civil Partnerships ~ £650

From our first call to the day of your ceremony, there will be no limit on how often you need to speak with me. I will be there for you every step of the way to ensure you’re happy with your celebration plan.

To secure your date, a non-refundable booking fee of £100 will be required after our initial call or meeting. The balance will be due 15 days before your ceremony.

Rest assured, I will not take on any other bookings on your special day, it will be all about you both!

What people are saying

“A few months before my husband Alan passed away after twelve years of living with Dementia, Erishia spent time with him and formed a special bond with both him and me. During that time he was responsive and very relaxed in her company. After he ‘slipped the surly bonds of earth’, Erishia took away the stress of all the planning of his Memorial. We did not have a funeral, but we shared a beautiful family and friends gathering in the Hertford Club garden.
Erishia did a lot of homework and sent suggestions of poems, and readings, all relevant to his life in Africa, his love of flying, and our love for each other.
Erishia quietly took control and delivered a heartfelt and personal celebration of his life. It was nothing less than Beautiful. What a very special lady.”

“Dear Erishia

I just wanted to email to thank you for my mum’s service. Making it all about the music she loved would have made her so happy and even though it was sad to let her go, you helped us to smile through our tears. Thank you!”

“Our mum’s service was held in a church and led by a vicar. However, it was Erishia who beautifully captured our mum’s life, personality, principles, and values in the eulogy. Despite the difficult time, Erishia made it engaging and personal. She also shared a touching tribute written by one of our aunts who was too emotional to read it herself. After the service, Erishia presented us with a lovely keepsake and a copy of the eulogy, which we’re truly grateful for. Her support and comfort during this difficult time meant a lot to us.

Thank you”

“Erishia wrote and delivered a wonderful eulogy about a friend of mine who took his own life. It was exceptional. She was sensitive, and caring and understood who he was and what he loved. She created a beautiful and moving piece that made me smile and cry. It was a fitting tribute to an amazing friend.

Thank you Erishia.”

“We were very lucky to have Erishia organise and deliver my dad’s recent funeral service.

She was just wonderful. Her warmth, poise, and understanding of the family’s needs were a great comfort at a sad and stressful time. Erishia was able to recommend appropriate music, poems, and readings. She pieced together a very special service with just the right amount of anecdotes and stories about my dad who was known for his sense of humour.

A huge thank you Erishia.”

“We would like to say a big thank you for the most caring, touching, and professional service we received by Erishia to celebrate our Stepdad’s life.

Erishia spoke about his life with such thoughtfulness and warmth which brought comfort to us all on a sad occasion.”

“Hello Erishia, thank you so much for speaking at my grandad’s funeral. You took the pressure off the family and delivered a great eulogy and service. My grandfather wasn’t religious and I was wondering how it was going to pan out, but you took the time and effort to get to know the family and it was like you were a part of the family by the time of the funeral. He would have loved it.

Thank you again Erishia for your kind words.”

Best regards from Matthew, Charlotte, and the family

“I just want to say a huge thank you to Erishia for the service she delivered at my grandad’s funeral. It was very caring, warm and so thoughtful – had me in tears with her loving words about him – I would not have been able to keep my composure, so again thank you to this special lady for everything you did.”

“Hi Erishia, thank you for the lovely service on Tuesday. Everyone said you really captured the essence of my unique father and thank you for the beautiful memory gift you gave me and my sister.”

“Erishia was so incredible at our step Grandad’s celebration of life. He didn’t want a “funeral” the service was so fitting to what he would have liked & to what my Nan & his family wanted. It was positive, with happy memories and lovely stories. It was uplifting & helped the tears to become happy tears of happy memories rather than of sadness. Strong & beautiful is how I remember the day, just like Erishia. I would highly recommend her for any celebrations in your life.”

Erishia was a wonder to work with from day one and made planning our ceremony so much fun. We wanted an intimate ceremony that reflected us as a couple and this is why we chose Erishia as she understood this from our first call, she took time to get to know me and my husband over various phone calls and then a visit to the venue, she even liaised with other suppliers as required to ensure our ceremony was perfectly planned. Erishia compiled a short, intimate ceremony that reflected our love and commitment she had numerous ideas to make the ceremony unique to us and helped in writing our vows. She was always happy and friendly whenever we chatted and her confidence put me at ease that our ceremony would run smoothly with her at the helm – it did! All our guests commented on how loving, unique and intimate our ceremony was. Erishia even offered her advice on other parts of the planning to help me when I needed it, she was so kind. We felt calm and comfortable and our day was wonderful – thank you Erishia.
