Meg Stanier Independent Celebrant | North East & Yorkshire
Modern, relaxed, entertaining ceremonies
Meet Meg!
I'm a laid-back celebrant with a positive attitude. I value fun, family, relaxation, 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 personalised service from booking to your big day!

What is a wedding celebrant?
A celebrant is someone who writes and officiates personalised ceremonies. A celebrant will never use the same script twice, we get to know our couples, their story, your 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 retsirctions to a celebrant wedding, you can have your ceremony at any time and location (with the land owners permission).
Plus, you have creative freedom on the content! Wedding celebrant, 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.

'I don't know where to start! We were originally going to go the traditional route of getting the registrar out for our ceremony but the logistics just didn't fit the timings of our venue - and it turned out to be the best little speed bump we came across when wedding planning because it meant we found Meg! Meg was so friendly and bubbly from the get go when we struck up a conversation at a wedding fair and in those short minutes we knew she would be able to do exactly what we wanted... But we were wrong! She did just that and more! Planning was a breeze because it really did just feel like meeting a friend and chatting wedding plans and when we got our ceremony draft back it was impossible to not get emotional - she captured our story perfectly. On the day, at the bottom of that aisle, it was almost like you could feel her excitement for us as a couple radiating off her. We've had so many compliments about how lovely the ceremony was (not to mention a social media post go viral because of special elements she helped us weave into the day seamlessly!) that I honestly couldn't imagine how any alternative could have beat it!
Thank you, Meg, for making the start of this new chapter as Husband and Wife so special and one of kind.'
