| Q | How can we ensure we choose the right wedding celebrant? |
| A | Sharon Allam says: The keywords for choosing the right celebrant are comfort and style. Start with a little research. Check out potential celebrants' social media profiles. An Instagram or TikTok page can reveal a lot about their vibe, personality and how they connect with couples. This can give you a good feel for whether they're the right fit for you. Next, consider communication. Your celebrant will be the one to share your love story, so you'll want someone who listens to your vision, works with your ideas and brings their own to the table. Most celebrants offer free, no-obligation chats. Pay attention to how you feel during the conversation. Do you feel at ease? Can you laugh together? Trust your gut – if it feels right, it probably is! Also, consider whether a celebrant fills you with confidence. Not only will an experienced officiant help ease any pre-wedding jitters, but they will be a friendly, reassuring face on the big day. Plus, they'll liaise with other suppliers to ensure everything runs smoothly. Remember, choosing a wedding celebrant should be the start of a delightful journey, not a daunting task. With a bit of research and a sprinkle of intuition, you'll discover the perfect celebrant to help you say, "I do!" |
