Tell us about your business. What lead you to this career and what can couples expect when working with you?

I have more than 20 years’ experience managing high-end corporate events at a national institution (which were attended by royalty, high ranking politicians and A list stars). My passion for romance – in particular weddings – lead me to train at Civil Ceremonies Ltd., gaining a nationally recognised qualification, and I'm now a noted London wedding celebrant. My unique and heartfelt service consists of writing, designing and delivering bespoke wedding ceremonies with a portfolio including renewal of vows, same-sex weddings and elopements.

What makes me different is my authenticity and passion for romance and weddings. I use my life experiences in a caring manner to show my clients that I am committed to giving them the best possible ceremony. I'm transparent in all that I do and my knowledge of the history and processes of marriage enable me to advise them of the steps to getting married in a calm, clear and concise way, ensuring the client a stress-free experience with peace of mind at its core. Not only am I a genuinely loving person, I actually love what I do. It's my gift, every ceremony is from my heart to theirs and brings me personal joy and satisfaction.

Recently I was named as the celebrant who will design, write and deliver the wedding celebration ceremony for NHS key workers that won a competition in Hello Magazine - in collaboration with Bridelux - for a dream wedding. I'm also listed as a recommended celebrant at prestigious venues such as Blenheim Palace, the Savoy Hotel, and Bodleian Library.

How can a celebrant help to make an intimate micro wedding more special?
A celebrant-led wedding is more intimate and special by its very nature. With the story of the couple's relationship at the heart of the ceremony, in a setting attended by immediate family and close friends, it is beautiful.

What's your top tip for couples planning a wedding?
- Have a wedding budget and stick to it.
- Hire wedding suppliers that you have a connection with and trust them to take care of bringing your dream wedding – the one you have carried in your heart and mind – to life.

RSVPing 'YES' to multiple weddings? Here's how to budget!

Attending weddings can be a joyous occasion, but it can also be expensive, particularly if you're invited to more than one over the course of the year. Costs such as new outfits, travel and accommodation, and gifts mean the overall expense of attending can quickly add up. Duncan Fortune, Head of Commercial at Tesco Bank, says: "Wedding season can be a significant expense for households. Planning ahead and setting a dedicated budget for celebrations can help spread the cost over several months, allowing people to make the most of the celebrations while keeping their finances on track."

Father's Day is the perfect excuse to celebrate the father of the bride.

If you're looking to do something a little more exciting than buying another novelty mug or pair of socks, wedding experts The Stag Company share their favourite experiences that can make the day feel extra special.
