Getting married in france

Congratulations on your engagement! 

So you are getting married in France? How fabulous!

You'll know by now that France has some utterly spectacular venues to celebrate your wedding day. From the sumptuous Chateaux to the Bijou Vineyards, the rustic farmhouses to the grandiose municipal buildings of Bordeaux. 

"Sans toi, je ne suis rien"

Without you, I am nothing

Whether you have secured your venue yet or not, now is a great time to find a wedding celebrant in France that you both connect with to create and officiate your wedding ceremony.

Creating your Ceremony

The most wonderful thing about creating wedding ceremonies in France are the variety of Love Stories that my couples come to me with. All love stories are unique and your love story deserves a unique ceremony. It's wonderful to discover the journey you have been on as a couple. The silly times you have shared, the emotional times, the times you have strengthened each other and of course the times you could have throttled each other! 

These are your stories to celebrate. As we develop our relationship through video calls and our private Whatsapp group, I discover your love story and your wishes for your ceremony and I sprinkle them onto the page to form your very personal bespoke wedding ceremony.

"From the first time we met Mark, he was charismatic, approachable and kind. He guided us through the whole process and really made our wedding ceremony fun, loving and memorable. All of our guests commented on how good he wasP&M

We will talk through your wishes for the ceremony and the variety of elements you could include, whether traditional or something more modern and unique.

I'll guide you to make decisions on the ceremony contents; the exchange of rings (or bracelets...there are no rules!), music, readings/poems, spoken vows of commitment, certificate signing, symbolic rituals such as hand fastening, wine or sand ceremonies... the list of what you can include in your ceremony is endless and I look forward exploring all possibilities with you! I offer unlimited contact with me, so I am always here to answer your questions as your wedding plans develop or to provide inspiration and ideas. 

 

Anything can be included, Don't forget there are no rules!

“Having Mark as our celebrant in France on our wedding day was a true honour. A true professional & story teller, with a heart of gold. Anyone would be lucky to have Mark as their celebrant on their special day.” O&S

You may know exactly what you want for your ceremony, you may not have a clue or you maybe somewhere in between! I can help with creative ideas and offer inspiration when needed resulting in a truly unique ceremony leaving your guests saying 'that was the best wedding we've been to!'.

 

As the ceremony takes shape I will share a draft script in advance for your approval. The creative process and style is very much influenced by you and your personalities, so we can make edits to the script as required.

"Choosing Mark as our celebrant was one of the best decisions we could have made for our wedding! He is an absolute delight - warm, charismatic and so genuine." T&M

Then, of course, I'm there to deliver your ceremony on your big day. As your celebrant in France my job is to ensure the ceremony is delivered to a high standard so I will always liaise with other relevant suppliers (musicians, photographer etc...) so that they are aware of the ceremony contents in advance.

I always arrive 2 hours before your ceremony ensuring enough time to set up, prepare and, more importantly, come and see you both to make sure you are ok and to calm any nerves! 

By the time your big day comes you will have confidence knowing that you have someone you can trust to deliver your ceremony with the skill, warmth, gravitas and  love filled laughter that your wedding ceremony deserves. 

“We feel so so lucky to have had Mark as our celebrant. I honestly couldn’t have picked or wanted anyone else up there with us on our special day. He felt like part of the family“” E&R

Discovery Call & Availability

Choosing the right wedding celebrant to officiate the union of your love is an important decision. 

I encourage all couples to book a no obligation, free video call with me to ensure that I am the right fit for you both.

It's a great opportunity for us to meet, I can explain in detail how I work to create your personal wedding ceremony and you can ask all your questions!  After which you will be able to make an informed decision as to whether I'm the right celebrant for you. 

To help your budgeting, I prefer, where possible, to include travel within my fee but it does depend on the location of your venue. So, drop me an email, a Whatsapp message or fill out the form on my contact page;  let me know your date and venue and I can provide you with an accurate price and a link to my online calendar to book your discovery call.

In the meantime, have a browse through my gallery or read the testimonials of couples who have entrusted me with their wedding ceremony in France.

 

I'm looking forward to meeting you both and discovering your love story!
