Hi, we're Eve & Andrew
We're the celebrant duo behind We Do Brighton, creating warm, personal ceremonies across Brighton, Sussex and beyond.
As former local authority registrars, we've had the privilege of officiating over 1,000 weddings and civil partnerships between us. From iconic venues like the Royal Pavilion and Brighton Bandstand to beautiful gardens and hotels, we've helped couples from all walks of life celebrate their love in a way that feels authentic and meaningful.
With over twenty years' experience, we've learned that the best ceremonies aren't the most elaborate. They're the ones that feel genuinely you.
One fee. Two celebrants. Unlimited support.
What makes We Do Brighton different is that you don't just get one celebrant. You get both of us.
From our first conversation, you'll benefit from double the ideas, support and reassurance as we get to know you, your story and what you want your day to feel like. We take the time to understand what matters most to you and create a ceremony that's completely bespoke.
On the day itself, you'll have two calm, experienced professionals by your side. A friendly, familiar face for each of you. Someone keeping an eye on the details. Someone helping settle nerves. Someone making sure you can simply be present and enjoy every moment.
And don't worry, twice the celebrants doesn't mean twice the price.
A ceremony that sounds like you
We believe your ceremony should feel personal, not performed.
No two ceremonies we write are ever the same because no two couples are ever the same. Our job is to listen to your story and turn it into a ceremony that reflects who you are: heartfelt, joyful, honest and full of the little details that make your relationship unique.
Whether you want something romantic, relaxed, humorous, family-focused or completely unconventional, we'll help create a ceremony that feels true to you.
Expert guidance from start to finish
As former registrars, we understand the wedding process inside out. We can explain the legal side of things and guide you through the simple paperwork needed to separate the legal formalities from your celebrant-led ceremony, giving you complete freedom to create the experience you really want.
We also offer optional Ceremony Fit coaching with Andrew. As a qualified coach with more than 20 years' experience, he helps nervous brides, grooms and partners manage pre-wedding nerves and feel confident speaking in front of family and friends.
We'd love to hear about your plans
If you're looking for celebrants who combine experience, warmth and a genuinely personal approach, we'd love to help tell your story.
We're based in Brighton and cover Sussex, including Hove, Worthing, Shoreham and Lewes.
Get in touch and we'll arrange a free, no-obligation chat over Zoom or, if you're local, in person.

Experience
Why choose a celebrant instead of a registrar?
A celebrant-led ceremony gives you complete freedom to create a wedding that reflects your personalities, values and story. Unlike a legal ceremony, there are no prescribed words or restrictions, allowing you to choose the location, content, readings and style that feel right for you.
How does the legal side work?
You'll need to complete the legal formalities separately with your local Register Office. This is usually a simple and low-cost appointment. Once that's done, you're free to have the personalised celebrant-led ceremony you've always wanted.
As former registrars, we're happy to explain the process and answer any questions.
What makes We Do Brighton different?
We're a genuine celebrant duo. Rather than working alone, we work together throughout the planning process and on the day itself. That means double the ideas, support and reassurance, all for one fee.
You'll have two experienced celebrants getting to know your story and helping create a ceremony that's completely unique to you.
Can we include personal vows, family members, children or pets?
Absolutely.
Some of our favourite ceremonies have included personal vows, handfasting, ring warming, family members sharing readings, children taking part and even the occasional enthusiastic dog. We'll help you decide what feels right for you.
How involved are we in creating the ceremony?
As involved as you'd like to be.
Some couples arrive with lots of ideas, while others aren't sure where to start. We'll guide you through the process, get to know your story and create a ceremony that feels authentic and personal.
Are you LGBTQ+ friendly?
Absolutely. We proudly celebrate love in all its forms and welcome couples from all backgrounds, identities, cultures and beliefs.
What areas do you cover?
We're based in Brighton and regularly conduct ceremonies across Sussex, including Hove, Lewes, Shoreham and Worthing. We're also happy to travel further afield, so please get in touch to discuss your plans.
What happens if one of you is unavailable on the day?
One of the benefits of working with a celebrant duo is built-in resilience. In the unlikely event that one of us is unable to attend, the other is fully familiar with your story and ceremony and can step in seamlessly, ensuring your day runs smoothly.
Can we include readings, rituals or symbolic elements in our ceremony?
Absolutely.
One of the joys of a celebrant-led ceremony is the freedom to make it uniquely yours. Whether you'd like family or friends to do readings, write personal vows, share music or include symbolic rituals, we'll help you create something meaningful and memorable.
Popular rituals include handfasting, ring warming, sand blending, unity candles and memory tributes for loved ones who can't be there. If you have a cultural, spiritual or family tradition that's important to you, we'd love to help incorporate it into your ceremony too.
If you're not sure what would suit you, don't worry. We'll share plenty of ideas and help you choose elements that feel authentic rather than simply doing something because it's traditional.
How far in advance should we book?
As soon as you've chosen your date and venue. Some couples book 18 months in advance, while others get in touch much closer to their wedding day. We'd recommend contacting us early to avoid disappointment.
