Celebrate People
About this business
Celebrate People is a multi-belief organisation based on humanist values. We conduct ceremonies as well as providing support and counselling. Our highly trained and experienced celebrants represent our humanist values of love, kindness, equality, compassion, inclusion and respect. We believe that you two are central and will support you to make sure that your ceremony reflects and expresses what is important to you, your lives, your culture.
We can provide excellent Spanish, French and Italian speaking celebrants to make sure everyone is included.
We simply want you to feel cared for and supported to express your love and commitment in the way that means most to you in that special moment. You may celebrate with family and friends or run away just the two of you. Whatever you choose we are there to help you have your perfect ceremony.
We are there for you from the moment you start to think about what you want for your ceremony all the way through to you leaving for the rest of your celebrations. For most that includes making sure all the legal details are taken care of in the right way and in the right place. If you need guidance on what to include on your ceremony, we are there with many ideas and support to help you choose the best words and elements for you both.
All of our celebrants are brilliant at listening and helping as little or as much as you need them to put what is you want to say into words. For some couples this is easy, others less so. Wherever you fall on that scale we will support you in your ceremony development in preparation for the main event. Symbols and customs can strengthen what you want to say and all of us can include handfasting, drinking from the quaich, sand ceremony and many more.

We loved working with Lyeona! She was very enthusiastic and had lots of very helpful examples of vows and ways we could customize our wedding ceremony. She was very good at helping us through the process and made our wedding day perfect in so many ways! She definitely went above and beyond to make our day special, including getting the sun to shine and finding a piece of my family’s tartan for the hand fasting ceremony. We highly recommend having her officiate your day. Thank you Lyeona for all your help making our day truly special and so memorable!
Susan was the most lively, warm & welcoming celebrant we could ever have wished for. From our very first introduction we felt comfortable and relaxed in a way that we hadn’t with any of the other celebrants we’d talked to. She was brilliant at guiding us through the preparation of our ceremony, teasing out our preferences and adapting to the style of ceremony we wanted. We never once felt ill at ease.
On the day, Susan was a miracle! It was wonderful to have such a calm and experienced person there to reassure us both. She was happy to make adaptations and last minute adjustments and certainly handled things much better than I would have been able to!
We had an absolutely brilliant ceremony with Susan. It was exactly the occasion we were going for and Susan captured the emotion superbly. It was sensitive and frank, humorous and dignified.
It won’t ever be enough, but thank you Susan!

We had a lovely wedding ceremony with Tim Maguire! I can tell that he knows what he’s doing. He made our day unforgettable.
Thanks for his kind planting tree gesture. Best wishes from Antalya, Türkiye.
We feel incredibly lucky to have been married by Mo Waterston in July this year. From our very first conversation, I knew she was the perfect match for us.
Mo’s kindness, sense of humour, and thoughtful nature made our ceremony the most memorable part of our day. She truly invested in us as a couple, and throughout the preparation she was patient, offered wonderful suggestions and helped us weave in traditions we both felt were important to us. On the day she was such a calming presence, and was able to read me like a book, giving me the best advice at the moment I needed it the most!
Our ceremony exceeded all our expectations, filled with personal, heartfelt, and humorous moments from start to finish. There were tears and laughter, and Mo’s warmth helped keep us grounded throughout. We have had so many comments from families and friends at how special and personable our ceremony was, and would recommend her to anyone. She is amazing at what she does, and we will always hold a very warm place in our heart for Mo.
Thank you Mo, a million times over x
As soon as we met Sarah from Celebrate People we knew we wanted her to be our celebrant. She helped us navigate the practicalities and the personal touches to make our wedding ceremony everything we wanted, and our friends and family all commented on what a lovely ceremony it was.
Thank you so much Sarah!
