Weddings Testimonials

We had the most amazing wedding and we can not thank all of those involved enough, especially you. You captured us,  raised some giggles and the wedding was as relaxed as we had hoped. Thank you so very much. Marriage suits us as we continue to grow and laugh as Mr and Mrs D.

 

Just a little card as a token of our heart-felt thanks to you for making our medieval wedding ceremony dreams come true. Between our medieval ceremony research and humour, and your special humanist touches, we achieved so memorable and perfect a ceremony. It really summed us up. We have had so many complimentary comments about the ceremony and your thoughtful delivery, we just had to pass on our gratitude. You helped make it all the more special with just the right mixture to make it meaningful and humorous, which is exactly the outcome we wanted. Thank you Moyra! With much love from H &P xx

 

Moyra did a fantastic job and totally came on board with our medieval themed wedding. She helped us adapt a medieval wedding script so that it suited our less religious requirements; she researched medieval poetry; she performed the medieval ceremony including a hand-fasting; she came up with an idea of audience participation that we took to another level to make the ceremony unique to us and our guests; she even dressed the part that was in-keeping with our theme, and she helped us with how to play our parts and what actions to do in a rehearsal. All this on top of a much more meaningful and thoughtful humanist ceremony with our story, reasons why we love each other, and especially chosen readings and poems made it so different, so unique, and so special to us. Moyra guided us along the way with several drafts to create a truly memorable ceremony. She added suggestions of meaningful readings in the right places, how to make hand-fasting ribbons, and even how to hold hands! Her support was invaluable to us in making it all just perfect. Thank you so very much Moyra! She enabled us to marry in just the way we wanted and intended with the right mixture of medieval and modern, meaningful words and actions, and humour and laughter that sums the pair of us up and will have our guests talking about for years to come. Her delivery of the ceremony for each part has been commented upon by our guests as she did it all so well. They say it is the best wedding ceremony they’ve ever been to. Thanks again. H&P

We just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you so much for the beautiful ceremony on Saturday. It was a real first for most of our guests. . .

Moyra added a lovely element to our wedding. It added so much more meaning to be involved in writing the ceremony and personalising our promises. It also added a bit of humour and set the tone for the whole day. A lot of the guests commented that it was the most enjoyable and interesting wedding ceremony they had attended. Moyra spent a lot of time with us drafting our ceremony wording and nothing was rushed. It was good to be able to have a rehearsal before the big day as it removed a lot of the pressure and it was much more enjoyable for all of us.   Bride and Groom

 

We chose Moyra Summers because she was fairly local to us and had a twinkle in her eye. Moyra was wonderful from the word “go”. She really helped us get our wonderful story across to all our friends and family in a humorous way but still with a seriousness underneath about our love and commitment to each other. Moyra is extremely organised and sends drafts of the ceremony until it is perfect. On the day she was fantastic, allowing us to be ourselves but always ensuring we told the whole story. We loved the whole family being involved and the ribbon fastening with our grandchildren was a beautiful and meaningful part of the ceremony. Moyra enunciates perfectly ensuring that even our hard of hearing guests caught every word. I am so glad we chose Moyra. We can’t thank her enough. I would recommend her to anyone. She was a very big part of our very special day…THANK YOU. K & N

Moyra is a true professional of her field and delivered a brilliant blessing that was relaxed, funny and enjoyable for all guests. This was commented on by everyone. It was like we had known Moyra years. When planning the blessing we both felt we could be ourselves with Moyra and honest about what we wanted. I would strongly recommend Moyra to anyone else, a true humanist and professional.    N & A’

We would like to thank you for conducting the wedding blessing. The service was very moving and it was touching to see them both make their vows in front of their friends and family.

Several of their friends have mentioned that they would like to have a humanist wedding service themselves because it was so personal to the bride and groom.

Once again, thank you for making their wedding blessing so special.

We both want to say a massive thank you for everything you did for us last week.  I really can’t thank you enough.  We had the most unbelievable day. It went better than we could ever have imagined, including the ceremony which we felt was absolutely perfect.  The work you put in to creating our perfect Humanist ceremony was above and beyond the call of duty and we would really like to thank you for it.  The ceremony was exactly us and the amount of people who commented after the ceremony that it was the best ceremony they had been to and / or how personal it was was truly testament to your efforts.   J & M

 

Here are a few more of the comments made by people whose ceremonies I have conducted:

 

“I would never have believed it could be so ….perfect!”

“I’ve never been to a humanist ceremony before….that was lovely!”

“Every word in it was exactly right.”

“Thank you again for a lovely ceremony – it was very special.”

“Thank you for all the time and trouble you took.”

“That was so special and beautiful …. it made me cry.”

“If it looks like I’m crying, well I am. That was the most beautiful ceremony I’ve ever seen.”

“We couldn’t have imagined a better wedding day…..thank you!”
