North East and Yorkshire Wedding Celebrant
Meg Stanier Independent Celebrant
Modern, relaxed, entertaining ceremonies
Meet Meg!
I'm a relaxed, modren celebrant with a positive attitude. I value fun, family and preparation when planning ceremonies. I also LOVE crafting unique poetry readings.
I think being a celebrant is an honour and strive to form friendships with my couples.
As a celebrant and designer, I also create vow and reading cards in-house, focusing on a completely personalised service from booking to your big day!
I am originally from Barnard Castle but now live in Darlington with my husband with plans to move to Sedgefield next year. So far I have officiated ceremonies in County Durham, Darlington, Sedgefield, Newcastle, Northumberland, The Lake District, Stockton, North Yorkshire, Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire... so I cover wherever my couples would like me to go!

What is a wedding celebrant?
Celebrants write and officiate completely bespoke ceremonies. We get to know our couples, their story, their beliefs and plans for their big day. We work with you to create a truly unique wedding ceremony AND you get to choose your celebrant!
​
There are no retsrictions to a celebrant wedding, you can have your ceremony at any time and location (with the land owners permission).
Plus, you have creative freedom, from suprise ring bearers to handwritten poetry, you can create YOUR dream ceremony! Whether you're the romantic type or a couple who don't take themselves too seriously, there really is something for everyone!
The only downside? Wedding celebrants, unfortunately, aren't legal in England at the moment so you will need to get legally married at the register office BUT then you get to have your ceremony how YOU want it on your big day!
Many celebrants also officiate vow renewals and naming days.
