Look for someone genuinely trusted by luxury wedding planners, venues and most importantly past couples.

Check their website and read their reviews properly, not just the star rating.

Anyone can say they're an experienced celebrant, but not everyone can prove it. Look at their content: photos, videos, real ceremony stories. If there's nothing there, it's a sign they're not investing in how they present themselves, which often reflects how much care goes into the ceremony itself.

Finally, have a call with a few celebrants you like the look of, and pay attention to who makes you feel the most heard and understood. That connection matters more than any credential - that person standing beside you on your wedding day should make you feel safe, at ease, and as joyful as possible.

As a Humanist-trained celebrant with over 50 ceremonies delivered at venues including Blenheim Palace, Cliveden House and the Natural History Museum, I bring both creative depth and 15 years of professional broadcasting experience to every ceremony I write.

Yes. In October 2025, the UK Government confirmed it intends to legally recognise humanist marriages in England and Wales, and on 16 July 2026 it launched a public consultation, "Tying the Knot", running until 24 September 2026. This is the biggest proposed change to marriage law in almost 200 years, and it's also considering whether independent celebrants should gain the same legal right, not just humanist ones. Nothing has changed yet.

Legislation still needs to be drafted and passed after the consultation closes, so for now, couples in England and Wales still need a separate registrar appointment alongside their humanist ceremony. I keep a close eye on this and I'm always happy to talk you through exactly where things stand when you get in touch.

A humanist wedding is a entirely personal, non-religious ceremony built around you as a couple. There are no scripts to follow, no traditions you are obliged to observe, and no restrictions on where it takes place. Every element, from your vows and readings to the music and any rituals you choose, is chosen by you and crafted around your story.

A humanist ceremony can be as intimate or as celebratory as you wish. It is recognised for its warmth, its depth, and the lasting impression it leaves on everyone in the room.

Currently in England and Wales, a brief separate appointment with a registrar is required to make your marriage legal. Many couples choose to do this quietly the day before or the morning of the wedding, keeping the humanist ceremony as the true heart of the day.

It is worth noting that the law is changing. The UK Government has announced its intention to grant full legal recognition to humanist marriages in England and Wales, bringing it in line with Scotland, where humanist weddings have been legally recognised since 2005, and Northern Ireland since 2018. Kathryn is happy to advise on the current process and keep you informed as the legislation develops.

None. Kathryn has conducted ceremonies in country houses, private gardens, historic libraries, five-star hotels, and open countryside. If a location holds meaning for you, it can be the setting for your ceremony. The same applies to content. If you want your children, your pets, or a particular tradition to be part of the day, it can be woven in.

Kathryn is based in Buckinghamshire and conducts ceremonies throughout London, the Home Counties, and across the UK.

Although in an attempt to be more sustainable she will only take a small number of weddings a year that are beyond 2 hours away from London.

She is equally available for destination weddings overseas. Travel costs are discussed as part of the initial consultation.

Yes. Kathryn holds full public liability and professional indemnity insurance through her association with Humanist UK.

Yes. Alongside her work as a celebrant, Kathryn offers private presenting coaching and consultancy, drawing on fifteen years of professional experience across radio, television, and online broadcasting.

Kathryn brings something to a ceremony that very few celebrants can offer. With fifteen years of professional experience in radio, television, and online broadcasting, she understands instinctively how to hold a room, read an audience, and deliver words in a way that lands with weight and warmth in equal measure.

A ceremony conducted by Kathryn is not simply read aloud. It is performed, with the same level of presence and precision she brings to every professional engagement. Couples often say it is the part of their day that surpassed every expectation.

Beyond the craft, Kathryn takes genuine pride in getting to know the people behind the ceremony. That connection is what makes the difference between a ceremony that is personal and one that is truly unforgettable.

Absolutely. Vow writing is one of the most personal and meaningful parts of the process, and it is something Kathryn approaches with great care. Whether you have a clear idea of what you want to say or no idea where to begin, she will work with you both individually to find the words that feel entirely yours.

Vow writing is included as part of every wedding ceremony booking. Get in touch to begin the conversation.

Yes. As a Humanist UK celebrant, Kathryn is able to conduct fully legal wedding ceremonies in Northern Ireland, Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, and Sark, where humanist marriages are already recognised in law.

For couples based in England and Wales, a separate civil appointment is currently required alongside the humanist ceremony — though this is set to change as the Government moves toward full legal recognition. Kathryn is happy to guide you through the current process.

Ceremonies outside of the Home Counties are warmly welcomed. Travel costs are discussed as part of the initial consultation.

I couldn't be more excited about this. As someone from Northern Ireland, where humanist marriages have been legally recognised since 2018, I've seen firsthand how meaningful it is for couples to have their humanist ceremony be their actual wedding, not a beautiful add-on to a separate legal appointment.

Scotland has recognised humanist marriages since 2005, and today more humanist weddings take place there each year than religious marriages of all denominations combined.

England and Wales are the last part of the UK still catching up, so this consultation genuinely matters. If it leads to legal recognition, couples here will finally get what Northern Ireland and Scotland have had for years: a single, seamless ceremony that's entirely their own, legally binding, and without the need for a separate registrar appointment.

I'll be watching this closely, and I'll keep my couples updated every step of the way.
