Hello, I’m Helen.

Relaxed, incredibly detailed ceremonies that set the perfect tone for your wedding day.

As my biz title suggests, I am a wedding celebrant based in Devon although I have travelled to weddings across the UK. I live by the seaside in North Devon with my son and twin girls, my husband, and more plants than is probably reasonable.

I was a globally performing professional dancer and circus artist for over a decade. I bring years of production knowledge and experience to the world of weddings. I know how to move an audience, both with laughter and happy tears!

As a qualified wedding celebrant, I create wedding ceremonies built around you. No templates, no time limits, no stress. Every moment is tailored to you both.

Alongside my performing life, I have always been an avid writer. I filled hundreds of notebooks during my dancing travels, wrote a blog page that went viral at one point, and become a professional copywriter after I hung up my dancing shoes.

Your wedding ceremony is an opportunity for you to experience something truly special and completely unique as a couple and all your invited loved ones.

Your guests will go home raving about how much fun they had, the stories they never knew about you, and how extraordinary your wedding ceremony was.
