Originally from Australia, I've lived in the UK 35 years. My accent has softened a little. :-) I adore being a celebrant. No two weddings are the same... not on MY watch anyway! I'll take the time to get to know you both, and write you a wedding celebration that you and your guests will never forget. I'm warm, genuine, rather funny and really good at my job... because I love it, I'm organised and don't leave things to chance. :-)

I spend time getting to know you, so that I can write a ceremony that is personal and unique to you. I don't work from templates. I pride myself on providing a first-class service to my couples. I offer advice pertaining to wording, readings, music choices, live musicians & singers and have a wealth of knowledge and experience in planning the perfect wedding day. As part of my fee as celebrant, I usually help my couples with the music: editing your tracks so that they're timed perfectly and your guests aren't subjected to music stopping abruptly. I am often engaged to sing at ceremonies I'm officiating. This involves a lot more time and work, both in the lead up to the wedding day and on the day itself, hence the higher price bracket. The cost is based on your choice of song, and whether a track needs to be created for use on the day.

Not a Dry Eye in the House
Alison did an amazing job! She really made the time to get to know us. On the day, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house and plenty of laughter. Our ceremony couldn’t have been more personal or more relaxed, which was just what we wanted. Our guests said it was the BEST wedding. Amy & Machile

ALISON WAS AN INTEGRAL PART OF OUR PERFECT DAY.
WEDDING | 07/15/2021 | PENDLEY MANOR, TRING We were introduced to Alison ... instantly my (soon to be) wife & I felt an amazing connection and relief that we had found our guide through this magical & stressful occasion! Ali was different than everyone else we had spoken to. She took the time to learn about us, our journey to that moment and what was important to us about our personal beliefs. Ali is an amazing Celebrant and I would highly recommend her.

A Lovely New Friend
Alison Ann had our guests howling with laughter, weeping happy tears, and feeling the joy and grace of our beautiful wedding day. The #1 question we’ve been asked is, “Where did you find your celebrant?!” In the weeks preceding the ceremony, Ali’s preparation, personalisation and thoroughness in getting to know us, both as individuals and as a couple, were incomparable. And bonus: she has the voice of an angel!
