Hello, I’m Debbie!

I'm an incurable romantic and I believe we should celebrate whenever an opportunity arises! Life is short - let’s make the most of those happy times!

After more than 40 years as a BBC trained television and radio presenter, I decided to follow my passion for storytelling and become a celebrant. I bring that experience, warmth and confidence to every ceremony I create.

I am now a fully trained and experienced wedding celebrant based in Kingston-upon-Thames, creating warm, meaningful and memorable ceremonies across Surrey, London and abroad. I specialise in non-religious weddings and I am accredited by Humanists UK.

Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, I'll help you create a ceremony that's truly yours.

I live in Surrey with my cat Fred and husband of 34 years. In that order.

“Debbie was incredible. She was able to capture and articulate our story beautifully in the ceremony. She was very proactive, on top of every detail and took away a huge amount of stress for us. Our guests loved the ceremony, and so many commented on how beautiful it was.” - Craig

What is a Celebrant?

A celebrant is the person who will lead your Wedding, Renewal of Vows, Commitment, or Baby Naming Ceremony. A celebrant is a bit like a non-religious minister.

Choosing a celebrant gives you the freedom to have a truly bespoke and unforgettable ceremony. We work with you to put together vows, music and readings that are a perfect match. 

Celebrants are not bound by statutory or religious rules. We have very few restrictions on what we can include in ceremonies, which is not the case for registrars and religious leaders. This allows us to put you at the heart of the ceremony and make your day as flexible and personal as possible!

To complete the legal paperwork for your marriage you will just need to visit a Register Office beforehand. The basic cost for this is around £60 - find your nearest one here.
