Surrey Wedding Celebrant
Welcome to Made With Love Celebrations!
“Emily created the most magical and deeply personal ceremony - something that truly reflected us as a couple. So many of our guests have since told us how beautiful and unique it was, and how much it stood out compared to other weddings they’ve attended.
What really makes Emily special is how much she genuinely cares about the people she works with. You can feel that she’s personally invested in making your day perfect.
Laura & Jamie, Mulberry House, 2026”
Warm, joyful and personal wedding ceremonies for couples who want something that truly feels like them. The kind of ceremony where guests laugh loudly, cry unexpectedly and leave saying, “That was so them.”
Hi! I’m Emily - but please call me Em - an independent wedding celebrant based in Surrey, creating heartfelt ceremonies filled with love and laughter for couples across Surrey, London and beyond to wherever your love takes me. I am so proud to be a recommended wedding celebrant at some of Surrey’s most loved wedding venues, including The Barn at Botley Hill and Gate Street Barn.
I work closely with couples to tell their story in a way that feels right to them. Whether your ceremony is romantic and emotional, relaxed and playful, or somewhere beautifully in between, I’ll take the time to get to know you properly and craft something that reflects your relationship down to the smallest detail. Every word written just for you so your celebration feels unmistakably yours.
So, ready to chat about your wedding?
“All I can say is wow!!! Emily was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Her infectious smile and her attention to detail made our ceremony the most beautiful experience. Emily was engaging and warm with an amazing sense of humour. We couldn't have picked a better celebrant than her. Thank you so much Emily for making it a magical experience.”
Lucy & Pat, Hookhouse Farm, July 2025
“Everyone cried and so many people came up to us afterwards to say it was the most beautiful ceremony they’ve been to. That meant so much to us because the ceremony was everything we hoped for and more - it was just authentically us and about our love.”
Lucy & Adam, Gate Street Barn, Dec 2025
Creating your wedding ceremony:
-
First things first, contact me to arrange a cuppa. This is a no-obligation meeting where we will chat all about your hopes and dreams for your wedding ceremony. We’ll talk about how you want your wedding ceremony to feel for yourselves and your guests, if you would like to include any rituals and so much more. We’ll chat about what working with me as your wedding celebrant includes. After our cuppa, I will hold your wedding date for 7 days. If you decide I’m the wedding celebrant for you, we get you booked in - YAY! You will be required to pay 50% of the final fee and return the service agreement to secure your wedding date. I will then send you a cheeky welcome gift to help you with all that wedding planning.
-
Once you’re all booked in, I will set up a WhatsApp group with you both and you will gain access to the Couples Zone on my website. 6 months before your wedding, I will send you a couple of questionnaires to complete. The first questionnaire focuses on the more practical details such as who will be in your wedding party, who will deliver a reading, and other wedding supplier details etc. The second questionnaire is where you can really get stuck in. As a wedding celebrant, I want to know all the juicy details and the more detail the more personal I can make your wedding ceremony. 12 weeks before your wedding ceremony, the remainder of my fee is due and once this is received, along with your completed questionnaires, I will get to work on your wedding ceremony. When the first draft is ready, I will meet with you again to go through your wedding ceremony. This is so that you can hear how your wedding ceremony will be delivered on the day and you can of course make any adjustments you wish. Around this time I will also offer you a vow writing tutorial. Once you are 100% happy with your ceremony I will rehearse so that it goes without a hitch on your special day.
-
The finished product - the big day finally arrives and you can feel at ease knowing I will be there with nice and early. I will pop in to have a chat with yourselves, anyone else involved in the ceremony and other wedding suppliers to make sure the highlight moments of your wedding ceremony are captured. AND when the time comes, I will be there at the end of the aisle waiting for you with a beaming smile and most importantly I will deliver your personalised wedding ceremony with warmth, joy and of course - love! Following your ceremony, you will receive a post-ceremony gift and I will stay in touch for as long as you want me to!
-
My fee includes everything, however, there may be an additional charge for travel beyond 1 hour from my home in Sutton and/or accommodation if required, which we can discuss in more detail over a brew.
If you would like a rehearsal, I include an online rehearsal in my fee. If you would like a rehearsal at your venue, this can be added for a fee of £100.
Remaining 2026 dates: £900
2027: £900
2028: £950
“Emily’s excitement about making sure everything is perfect is infectious and her attention to detail in the lead up to the big day was a huge help to us, so when we got to the venue on the day we knew everything would be in safe hands. The whole process was really straightforward and she had great advice and resources for us when we weren't sure where to turn (for instance around how to write our vows and things to consider when picking readings). We'd recommend Emily in a heartbeat to any other couples considering a wedding celebrant!”
Sam & Claire, Lillibrooke Manor, Feb 2026
What you can expect from me as your Wedding Celebrant:
“Emily was amazing throughout even from the first communication. Her attention to detail for our love story and the way she delivered the ceremony was perfect. We can't thank her enough for adding the personal touch to our special our day! Her presence alone comforted my now husband when he needed guidance and some reassurance and having you there was like a comfort blanket. I knew we were safe hands.”

Description text goes hereAre you wondering how you can celebrate your love even after being married?
A vow renewal is a gorgeous way to mark a special anniversary, overcoming a hurdle together, or simply to remind yourselves why you got married in the first place. A vow renewal is the perfect way to reflect on the journey so far but also to look forward to the rest of your future together. It is a chance to reaffirm your vows, or even make new ones – after all, a marriage isn’t just for Christmas now is it!
Allow me to get to know you and your love story to date and support you in setting intentions for the future. I can’t wait to create a bespoke vow renewal which truly captures you!
Price: £450

What is the best way to celebrate the arrival of your little one and the beautiful journey you’re embarking on together as parents? A baby naming ceremony of course! If you’re wondering what a baby naming ceremony actually is and what it may include, head over to my blog post where I spill the tea on all things baby naming ceremony.
Together, we will create a bespoke baby naming ceremony which reflects your special little family. Every detail will be tailored, ensuring the day is filled with love, joy and cherished memories.
Get in touch to arrange a virtual cuppa, where we can chat more about how we can make your baby naming celebration truly unforgettable.

You may be lucky enough to have a friend or family member who would make a great celebrant for the day. If so, I offer a ceremony script writing service for all ceremonies I offer (weddings, vow renewals and baby naming). Whilst I would love to be there in person and deliver the words I have written specifically for you, I appreciate that there is sentiment in someone close delivering your ceremony.
The steps for this service are the same for couples choosing me to deliver their ceremony. I will meet with you for a virtual cuppa, send you questionnaires, write your personalised ceremony script, meet again with yourselves to discuss the ceremony script and then instead of coming on the day, I offer one more meeting – this is with the person who will be delivering the script.
Price: £300
“Emily was absolutely wonderful – she made everyone involved in the ceremony feel really welcome, relaxed and included, and she was particularly brilliant with our nieces and nephews. The ceremony itself was beautiful, with Emily wonderfully holding the space, making everyone feel part of it, while also keeping it really personal. She played a huge role in making the day so special for us!”
