What do I look for?

There are many celebrants to choose from which can be a bit daunting. It is a good idea to look around, ask friends, research various sites until you find one that sounds appealing.

You will have your own individual needs which every professional celebrant ought to be able to read and address in helping design a ceremony to suit you.

Other things, such as, the celebrants availability, cost, personality, compliance with law, how you get on together, how the celebrant's ideas fit in with your values, whether you want a religious element in the ceremony, for instance, may all influence your decision. It is advisable to choose a celebrant as early as you can.
