Hello. Hi. Welcome.
I’m Natasha from Ceremony by Natasha & I’m so pleased you found me!
I’m a humanist celebrant specialising in gorgeously joyful wedding & vow renewal ceremonies for lovely couples in London, Surrey & beyond.
I believe ceremonies have the power to transport us from our day-to-day lives to a magical moment where time stands still. A moment for us to wholeheartedly celebrate & reflect on what life is all about; love, family, community, culture – with a major dose of joy & laughter for good measure.
We’ll each be the protagonist in a mere handful of ceremonies in our entire lifetime, so why shouldn’t we – heck, why wouldn’t we – embrace that main character energy & make every one utterly unforgettable?
A bit about me
I grew up in a cute market town nestled in the Yorkshire hills & now live on the London/Surrey border – more commonly known as Croydon – with my brilliant husband, our beautiful baby girl, Eleanor & our bunny, Clemmie.
I’m a super positive, enthusiastic, glass half-overflowing type of person & a huge cheerleader to my nearest & dearest (including my gorgeous couples).
Handwritten letters are my love language & coffee is my go-to; a flat white pre-10am & an espresso martini post-5pm (& cake at anytime).
I’m a storyteller by trade, having worked in communications for massive British brands for the last 8 years. I’ve got tons of experience in creatively crafting & presenting compelling stories, which is proving very useful now I’m in my Ceremonies Era.
I’ve – very kindly – been described as a “ray of sunshine in celebrant form”, which had me beaming for weeks!
Phew, anyway, that’s quite enough about me, let’s talk about you two!
A bit about you
Firstly, huge congratulations on your engagement. This is such a special time; full of love, fizz, excitement and SO MANY decisions!
Well, let’s make this decision an easy one. If you’ve landed here, you’re most likely already in on the secret. You know that a made-to-measure humanist celebrant-led ceremony is the crème de la crème of all ceremony options.
Perhaps you don’t follow a particular religion – or you each align with a different belief system – but the most common alternative (an impersonal civil ceremony, where you have no idea who the [insert word here] is going to turn up on the day & marry you) gives you the ick.
Maybe you’ve nailed where you want to marry the love of your life & it’s a tad out of the ordinary (I’m intrigued!).
Or, quite simply, you may know – have always known – that you want to celebrate your commitment to one another in a truly personal, meaningful & inclusive way.
If any, or all, of this resonates with you, then I have an inkling you’re in exactly the right place…
Why choose Ceremony by Natasha
❤️ You got a friend in me. We’ll work hand-in-hand to ensure your ceremony reflects exactly who you are as individuals & as a couple. Throughout our time together I’ll be entirely invested in your story & totally on board with the vibe you want on your big day. So, by the time you’re standing up there in front of all your favourite people, you’ll have utter confidence in me & the ceremony we’ve created together.
❤️ Total ownership & flexibility. Your ceremony will be made just for you, entirely from scratch. No template, no ‘insert names here’. We can exclude or re-imagine any tradition that doesn’t resonate with you as a modern couple. Every single word & action is intentional & specifically chosen to celebrate your love.
❤️ Location, Location, Location. In the fine words of Shakira, your ceremony can be whenever, wherever. On your comfiest sofa, in a woodland clearing, up a mountain at sunrise or on a beach at sunset. How about your favourite restaurant or rooftop bar? If it’s special to you, then it’s special to me.
❤️ A helping hand. Knowing the sky’s the limit in your ceremony creation can be exhilarating, but it can also be a tad overwhelming. So I’ve got a library of resources at your disposal – The Ceremony Files – to help spark your creativity, should you need it. Personal vows; readings, poems, reflections & music; special touches & rituals; rethinking traditions – it’s all in The Files. I got you.
Ceremony by Natasha, love story by you
