Personalise your Wedding Ceremony

A celebrant is a great option for couples who want to personalise their wedding ceremony, or for couples who can’t get the ceremony time they want with a North Yorkshire County Council registrar.

Ceremonies conducted by celebrants are great fun - a celebrant can tailor proceedings to the couple, making the ceremony far more personal. 

Couples can, of course, still say their vows, exchange rings, and sign a document of some description, but remember: the marriage isn't legally binding (so you'll need to legally marry in a registry office before or after your wedding day at The Normans!)

We list a handful of our favourite celebrants, below…
