My husband and I knew we wanted to get married but honestly had no clue where to start! I'm not local so I didn't really have an idea of how wedding here should be and we thought of just having a small intimate wedding with family at my husbands parents house. We found Amanda-Louise as we wanted a celebrant to conduct our ceremony, and when we met up with her over a cup of tea, we realised how many things we overlooked and how we were way over our heads! She helped us find our dream venue, I'm sure put in countless hours behind the scenes making it as beautiful as it was on our wedding day! As for our ceremony, I couldn't praise Amanda-Louise highly enough - it was everything I hoped it would be. It was personal, touching, beautiful. A day we will remember forever ❤ Honestly recommend Amanda to everyone, won't be disappointed.

I was a photographer at a beautifully led wedding ceremony by Amanda in Dorset back in October. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, making it very easy for me to get the images I needed to make sure my clients were very happy! Amanda allowed me to get in close to get those intimate shots and unique angles. She also gave me a very good briefing as I was hired at last minute and it was far from a traditional wedding ceremony! I would highly recommend Amanda as a wedding celebrant if you are looking for someone professional, caring and will make your ceremony very rememberable :).
