WEDDINGS
"Where there is love, there is life."
– Mahatma Gandhi
A wedding is one of the happiest and most important days of your life. It's also an opportunity to show the love you have for one another off to all your family and friends.
​
Having a celebrant led wedding gives you the chance to tell your love story, your way. You can be as creative or traditional as you like, and the ceremony will reflect your personalities, values and the love you have for one another. A wedding ceremony can be held anywhere with the owner's permission, so the sky really is the limit. You have the freedom to choose a venue that is special to you, whether it's the grounds of a stately home, a local pub, a beach or in your own home and garden. You can choose to be as religious or as spiritual or secular as you like, I'll design the ceremony around your choices. We will have lots of time together so I'll get to know you both and I will help you with as much or as little as you need. We will work together to create the perfect ceremony that will surprise and delight your guests.

AMY AND VINCE
I don’t know if we can ever fully articulate how incredible Arabella is. From our first call with her we both knew she was the perfect fit for us, but we had no idea how she would exceed our expectations in every aspect. Arabella is kind, warm, funny, clever, beautiful and completely devoted to her craft. She completely understood us as a couple and really put in such time, care and energy in getting to know us. The whole process was really enjoyable and fun - and where we needed any additional support she was only too happy to step in. On the day of our wedding she went above and beyond, and my husband was saying how he instantly felt a wave of calm when he saw her as he knew he was in safe hands. She led the most beautiful ceremony with such grace, style and humour in all of the right places. Our guests each commented on how perfectly she had captured us as a couple, how cool she was, how engaging and just generally amazing. She perfectly described our love story, the exchanging of rings, hand fasting and a Nordic wine ceremony, and our vows - so quite a lot! It was so comforting having her up on the stage with us. Thank you Arabella, thank you.

JORDAN AND LUCA
Arabella loves people - the stories, the truths and all the things that make us who we are. She speaks to things that make us human and she has an amazing ability to make people feel seen; even at their most vulnerable so when my husband and I decided to get married, there was no question about who should officiate.
We weren’t just planning a wedding but a fashion show at Milan Fashion Week, merging two of our most important moments ever into one unforgettable event!
Arabella handled this with style, was completely cool and calm and put us at ease facilitating all our anxieties and ‘what ifs’! Officiating a wedding is no small feat, but doing so amid the chaos of Fashion Week during a show takes a gift which is so incredibly rare to find. Arabella connected it all so seamlessly, weaving together our intimate personal journeys - the dogs, the fashion and (with consent!) all the salacious details which our guests and audience loved. Her words were personal and deeply considered and filled with warmth and humour.
Arabella is warm and incredibly charismatic and brought things together in a way I never imagined possible - and I know that no matter what milestone or occasion, she will bring the same grace to make it a truly exceptional service.

Putting into words how grateful I am for Arabella's beautiful ceremony is a challenge. She was so kind, humorous and warm in equal measure. I cannot recommend her enough.
She took the time to get to know both me and my partner with a really fun questionnaire and then wrote the most perfect ceremony script inspired by our answers. She has a natural flair for writing and was able to get some jokes in at the beginning and round off with some really moving words. The structure of it was fantastic.
The ceremony was the absolute highlight of the wedding, many people came up to me and my partner just in awe at how lovely Arabella was and how beautifully the ceremony came together.
​Arabella's ceremony moved our friends and family to tears, had laugh out loud moments and left a big smile on their faces as they all walked into the wedding breakfast.
You cannot go wrong with her, she's brilliant.

My husband and I got married last year, with Arabella as our celebrant. She was very organised and well prepared for the day, taking extra effort to make us feel calm and ready. During her celebrant speech, Arabella was humorous and engaging with both of us and the audience. We really felt that Arabella had taken the time to know us! In addition to delivering a wonderful speech, she prepared thoughtful touches like beautiful vintage books to read her notes from. I highly recommend Arabella for your wedding day!!

We were lucky enough to have Arabella agree to be our Celebrant at our recent wedding celebrations at Updown Farm. She was the most wonderful addition to such a memorable day. Arabella herself is the most gorgeous person, and she wrote the most lovely address for us and performed our ceremony with such warmth and tenderness, it was without question one of the highlights of our very special day.
Thank you Arabella.
