Whether it´s your first time around, second time around, whether it´s a huge bash or an intimate affair., for such an exciting event you need to surround yourself with people and suppliers that you can trust and only have your best interests at heart. I am an Independent Wedding Celebrant and although my main role is to create the perfect ceremony and officiate on your big day, I will also be your celebrant/confidant/advisor /guide and will make recommendations when needed and generally try to make life a bit easier for you during what can be a stressful time.
As you will have already completed the legal marriage contract at home, you can have your ceremony and celebration just about anywhere you please. So let´s see, it could be on the terrace or by the pool in your holiday home here in Spain, your favourite restaurant, a beach chiringuito, a private villa, the choice is yours and is endless (contact me if you would like to know about the venues I like to work with).

Vow Renewal Ceremonies
The absolute beauty of a Vow renewal ceremony is that as you are already married and have your marriage certificate so there is no need for any legal content in your ceremony.
There are many reasons why people decide to renew their vows. Maybe you’ve reached 5, 10, 25, 50 years of marriage and simply want to show the world what you’ve achieved together and how lucky you’ve been to find real happiness.
Perhaps you were unable to have the wedding of your dreams first time around and would dearly love to celebrate your wedding your way. Or has your relationship been through a hard time recently and survived and you want to recommit to your marriage and make a fresh start.
Let´s decide together exactly what to include or what not want to include in your ceremony. Do you want to repeat your original vows and bless your original wedding rings? or are you looking forward to a new start?

Naming Ceremonies
Welcoming a new child into the world or an adopted child into your family is one of life´s very special moments. Recently it has become much more popular for parents to choose a celebrant led ceremony to introduce their baby to family and friends, but why?
Well, a baby naming ceremony is an alternative to a religious ceremony and gives you the freedom to adapt the ceremony according to your wishes. There are so many ways you can mark this amazing day. you could include elements such as songs, special poems or readings or even a ritual for example hand and foot printing which is a fun way to involve all the family and make the day even more memorable.
There is no legal content in a baby naming ceremony so you are free to choose your location. How about outdoors in the garden or on a terrace, maybe at a beach chiringuito or in a private villa, even in your own home here in Spain. After all your child is your whole world and that is worth celebrating.
