Amy Lee Bristol and Somerset Celebrant

Contact Me

If you are looking for a wedding, naming or funeral celebrant please get in touch. I’d love to hear from you!
I offer a free consultation session via Zoom so that we can discuss your ceremony and make sure we’re a great match. I am also happy to answer any further questions you might have.

FAQs

I am based in Bristol and Somerset, and cover the West Country and into Gloucestershire and South Wales. Please do ask though, if you’re further away, as I am sure something can be arranged.

£850 for the planning, writing and delivery of a wedding. I am happy to discuss prices for smaller affairs or vow renewals. 

£300 for a naming ceremony.

£450 for a celebration of life ceremony. Prices may differ, depending on size, date, nature and location.

Yes, I have public liability insurance through my association with the Humanists UK Celebrant Network.

Humanist weddings are still not legal in England and Wales, but Humanists UK is campaigning hard to change this. Currently you need to have a separate civil service to get the legalities out of the way. You can get officially married for as little as £58 in a registry office.  Often couples will have their civil ceremony at a date of their choosing and then have their actual wedding in front of their friends and families in their humanist ceremony. Think of it like registering a birth of a baby- they aren’t born the day their parents register them, that’s just when they did the legal part!

You can have your ceremony wherever you choose- an established venue, a private home, a farmer’s field, the beach, a pub, a bar or a village hall. I am happy to discuss any option with you, and nowhere is off the table!

Timeline of writing and preparing your ceremony

Booking

Step 1: Initial conversation where we discuss your wedding, what I offer and see if we are a good match.

Step 2: Once confirmed I will send a contract and invoice with a request for the £200 deposit. Once I have received your deposit your ceremony is confirmed.

Planning

Step 3: Depending on when your ceremony is, and at what point you have booked me, I will contact you to arrange a mutually convenient time to meet (either online or in person) to plan your ceremony. I like to write them at least two months before the event (but often a lot longer than that)

Step 4: I take up to three weeks to write your ceremony. I will then send it to you to read and comment upon. I am happy to change, add or delete anything you’d like. I am also happy to go back and forth with you as much as we need to make it perfect.

One month before your ceremony

Step 5: I ask for the remaining fee one month before your wedding ceremony

Two weeks before your ceremony

Step 6: With the final version complete we will meet online one month or so before your ceremony to run through everything and discuss final arrangements

Step 7: If you would like me to, I can contact your photographer and/or wedding coordinator to discuss anything necessary.

Step 8: I print the ceremony after I have been in touch and at least one week before your wedding. Please let me know if you would like readings printed at the same time.

The ceremony

Step 9: On the day I will arrive 30-45 minutes before the start time and I will ensure everything is in place and ready for your arrival. I’d love to stay for a drink afterwards if you would like me to!

Thank you for reading. I am so excited about your ceremony!
